I was in Lyon for work and am so happy to have found L'Estanco! I had lunch here two days in a row…read moreand both times were great. The ambiance is calm, the staff is lovely, and the food is healthy and delicious. I tried the salad, the cauliflower soup, the Thai bagel, and the cake aux châtaignes- all vegan!

My first visit to Garden State was not exactly what I was expecting. First, there are two locations…read morein the Bellecour area, maybe one block from each other. So when my friend and I couldn't find each other and both insisted that we were at the Bellecour location, it took us a few minutes to realize there were actually two Bellecour locations. We decided to eat at this one since they had tables set up outside and it was a nice, sunny day. We sat down around 11:15 and the restaurant was not serving lunch yet so my friend ordered an espresso and I a tea. The tea was okay but nothing special and it cost almost 3€ which I should have expecting, seeing as how this is a tourist area. They finally started serving lunch around noon so I ordered the Italien Croque Maison which was mozarella, grana padano, tomato, aubergine, and fresh basil on a toasted whole wheat sandwich bread. My friend ordered the Chevre Wrap which was chevre, tomato, lettuce, black olive, and artichoke on a white flour wrap, toasted in a panini press. Both came with a side salad of fresh greens, sundried tomato, a tasty balsamic dressing, and topped with sesame and poppy seeds. I tasted both sandwiches and they were both yummy. The melted mozarella sandwich turned out to be a bit too heavy for a warm, sunny day though so I would definitely recommend the wrap if it's hot out. We really wanted smoothies with our lunch but this location doesn't serve them until April so we headed to the second location to try the Bonne Mine, an orange-flavored smoothie. I definitely don't think it was thick enough to be called a smoothie. It was more like a mix of fresh fruit juices. But it was very tasty! Also, at this other location, they had an easily accessible refrigerated to-go section so you could just grab a cold sandwich or wrap, plus whatever sides you want, like tabouli or a salad, and various desserts such as yogurt, fromage blanc, or tiramisu. I might try the to-go experience next time. I'm definitely glad to know this place exists, even if it wasn't absolutely amazing, because it's fast and fresh and somewhat more healthy than other fast food options in the area.

Being new in Lyon, I didn't know where to look for interesting places to eat, but in my heart I was…read moresure the best spots were not those in plain sight. Oh, how I was wrong, since in Lyon good food is everywhere, and Garden State, centered at the heart of Place Bellecour offers just that. It is a great spot to have a quick or more relaxed lunch while gazing at the passers-by. The offer is of constant quality but of variable choice, so ask for the weekly specials. Most dishes are healthy, still being filling, and there are plenty of vegetarian options. I recommend you to take your time, and enjoy your meal in the sun, you're in Lyon after all!

Very Good crepe base- not too sweet yet maintaining a good light eggy flavor and well cooked. It's…read morea little crispy but soft at the same time. I ordered the chestnut cream but got chestnut purée instead (bad English translation on their menu). Not a wise choice to go with this crepe without some whipped cream. It has potential and should be much better if accompanied by any other topping. Good espresso but kinda wished they would have given me cream on the side. Pretty Costly for a small snack (one order of crepe will NOT fill you up, maybe two will have you satisfied but possibly 3 orders to actually make you stuffed) but this is France after all. I would want to come back just once more to try another flavor of their crepe to see how the filling is. They seem to skimp a bit on the filling. But kudos for them having an English menu and very big cafe (interior) with some nice staff and owner (or manager).

After a week in France, we were craving fruit so had to give Le Paradis du Fruit a try. We must…read morehave come at the right time because we were seated right away and there was a line when we left. It took quite a while to take our order. I got the strawberry waffle because I can never turn down a coulis. It was a bit tart but there was ample whipped cream to sweeten it up, along with a few strawberry slices. Daughter got the açaí bowl, which had a good variety of toppings but the açaí mixture was more earthy than refreshing and a bit runny. It was a super hot day, and the server refilled our tap water multiple times without asking. As always in France, we had to ask for the check. The decor is really cute, and the bar is decorated with fruit.

In this area, you eat lunch "plat du jur" or a small menu for 12-16 Euro, even at an Asian place. Here you can get a small bowl of pasta or paella, fruit salad, and cappuccino for 13-14 Euro. Also their espresso and cappuccino are good. What I tried: tomato mozzarella salad, paella, orange side, macchiato, and cappuccino during my stay at the nearby ibis hotel. The only thing I didn't care for was the orange aide, which was flat and flavorless. Free WiFi! Service: Very good. Friendly people who are willing to understand your bad French & speak in English I'm usually against the pre-packaged food and plastic containers, but this is a good option for weary travelers.:)
