Café Comptoir Abel

The most authentic bouchon lyonnais in the city — a tiny, packed restaurant in operation since 1928 where the quenelles, andouillette, and tablier de sapeur are cooked exactly as Paul Bocuse decreed. The checked tablecloths, enamel pitchers, and roar of conversation make this the defining Lyon dining experience.

🍜

Les Halles Paul Bocuse

Lyon's grand covered market — named after the city's most famous chef, this 19th-century iron-and-glass hall contains 60 stalls selling the finest Lyonnais produce: Bresse chicken, Beaujolais wine, silk-smooth quenelles, praline tarts, and extraordinary cheese. The best food market in France.
