👍 Nice cosy cafe in the middle of Old Town. It’s unique because it was one of the few Western-ish breakfast/brunch place in Old Town, Lyon. Service was brisk and good. The food was also great, though the blueberry sauce on the pancake was just a touch under. Recommended nonetheless! People often mention pancakes, brunch, good, sweet,

    Nice, cosy little place with very sweet & friendly staff 💕 we had the salted avocado & truffle mushroom pancakes. Both were tasty and also very filling (you better climb the hill afterwards to burn those calories 😅). The smoothies were a little bland...but yeah...when you're used to latin america fruit juices, everything else is mediocre 😉.

    Great quality bacon but I think we made a mistake by all getting the sweet versions of the breakfasts... The blueberry pancakes, the chocolate waffles and the French toast. All couldn't be finished because it was just loaded with sugar. Normally you can escape the sweet part a little but it was all drenched in syrup. So unfortunate, because the service was absolutely incredible. Definitely go here but go for the savoury options it seems. Sitting outside is also nicer because it lacks airflow inside and gets a bit stuffy. Great area to explore though.

    Lovely atmosphere and cute vibe! Perfect brunch place. The food and drink was good. The brunch menu is big for the cost and its filling. Only request is that it would be great if you can include sweet pancakes for brunch menu as not everyone likes savoury pancakes. The LMC tasted good and recommend it! Would definitely come back again!!

    The place was cosy and the food was very filling. We were exhausted after the pancake so we had to take away the dessert. The place could be more ventilated, since there is no AC. The bathroom is really small and I wish it was just a little bigger. Over all the food was nice! We had a good brunch afternoon! I took the burger pancake but if I go another time, I’d probably try the ‘Frenchie’ or the ‘bacon lover’

    We got there early and were lucky enough to get a table without a reservation. Brunch was delicious and hearty. Truth be told, I was pleasantly surprised by the use of pancakes as part of a savory breakfast dish. We ordered the Frenchie and the Green style. Both were tasty and filling. Had to take the dessert to go. Make a reservation, if possible.

    In a little sweet space with a delicate interior design, you will find the most delicious associations of fluffy pancakes. I had the luck to share both the Pug one and the Brunchie special salty pancakes and it was simply right for my taste. Light in the mouth, savory and tasty, I recommand that you try at least one of them. And you still have a bit of space, do try the waffle, sweet pancakes or crepe. They are just as good as they are mouth watering ! In a word : Awesome ! And thank you to the staff, they are both efficient and attentive to their clients. Tank you so much for the relaxing time you gave us.

    Went for the Sunday brunch. Very good food and decor. The food options and portions are very good for the price paid! However it was very hot inside with no AC and just 2 fans.

    Make sure you make reservations cause this is a popular spot for brunch and rightly so! The savory pancake options are all wonderful (we visited twice and tried 4 different ones and they were all fantastic), the coffee is excellent, the vibes are immaculate, music slaps, service is friendly, didn’t have the sweet options for pancakes or waffles but they looked delicious as they passed us. Highly recommend as an alternative to the classic croissant and espresso brekkie.

    The place is so cozy and cute. The photos of their Pug Myrtillo are fantastic, full of fun and cuteness. The pancakes are fluffy but not heavy. They do have their flavor but not too strong which go perfectly with the accompaniments. Fresh or/and flavorful and perfectly cooked. It’s so filling that as tempting as all the desserts look, it is hard to leave some room for dessert. Their brunch menu is a great deal. We are going back for desserts next time around, and with my dog. Last but not least, everyone working there is just so friendly, smiley, kind but professional. Totally recommended.
