    Nice location! We had the poisson du moment 👌 and it was very delicious. Well Located at the Rhône but much noisy traffic!

    Great Scottish pub with friendly staff, good prices, and nice atmosphere. Pub food available. Kitchen closed at about 22:00 so make sure to order before then. But small snacks available after the kitchen closes. Wide selection of beers and spirits. Dart board 🎯 available on site for group fun.

    Come for trivia night, stay for the pints. And good company. Trivia was conducted in French and English, but unsure if that's always the case. Their upstairs is cozy. We sat on the second level and overlooked the venue. Friendly bartenders. Shout-out to Matthieu and Charlotte for their attention! I may have had shots here. Credit accepted.

    Great atmosphere, and nearly always busy. Had to wait awhile for a table but enjoyed it. Staff very helpful and friendly. Always feels weird, when a lady has to use the toilet. It's beside men's urinal and same washing facilities. But that's French

    A great pub for sports of all sorts. I wanted to watch the AFL preliminary final, which they had scheduled to be open for & played on most TVs throughout the bar. Others attended who wanted to watch the NRL, which they gladly put onto another TV. Prior to the AFL starting they had an India v Australia cricket match on. The food was quite good. I had the Wallace Burger.

    Very busy spot for sports events, great atmosphere. Staff were excellent on both visits, considering how busy they were. Reasonable prices too!

    Lovely little English speaking bar. Great during day and even better at night. Had a great evening.

    Great beer selection. Friendly English speaking staff. Good hamburgers. You do have to wait during peak hours but you will get service.

    Excellent place and location; the staff is very gentle; I had a delicious beer “Wallace IPA” after a long walk, perfect for rest and refresh :)

    Super Fußballabend! Waren zum CL Viertelfinale Barcelona vs. Bayern München dort. Zuerst waren wir draußen Burger essen. Typisches Pub Essen, aber sehr gut meiner Meinung nach. Dann zahlten wir und der Kellner meinte der obere Bereich ist nun offen zum Fußball. Fande ich persönlich spitze, da dass nicht selbstverständlich ist. (Haben vorher gefragt ob später Fußball gezeigt wird) Dann waren wir im oberen Bereich auf den Couches. Sehr viele Biersorten zur Auswahl. Jedoch nicht so meine Fälle, da ich gutes deutsches Bier gewohnt bin. Zum Fußball schauen und trinken mit Freunden würde ich jederzeit wieder kommen!

    Nice waitress (irish) and nice beer .. at riverside there is a cooling don feature .. great here!!!

  • 1/5 Verena T. 1 year ago on Google
    Wow, If I could give 0 I would. Where do I start? Service: staff would constantly look at us while we waited for ordering and look away when we try catching their attention. Food: our Wallace burger were raw in the middle, cold and tasting like foam in a bun. One of the most flavorless food of my life. They achieved to make bacon flavorless. Kudos. Location is great but there are about 10 other places you could try instead.

    Lovey, patient and friendly waiters. The food was good! The cheese cake was delicious 😋! The restaurant is situated at a busy corner, but it's hardly a turn off. Definitely to be recommended!

    Great atmosphere, friendly staff and MASSIVE whisky selection - could easily lose a lot of time, money and braincells here!

  • 1/5 Derek S. 1 year ago on Google
    Good beer, good music and inexplicably retarded customer service (except for sound barman with a beard). Went in, they have 3 TV's. Literally no-one else inside (plenty outside on the terrace). Asked about showing a match. The good barman checked, but they wouldn't put it on. They could have, but they wouldn't! Again, I repeat - I was the only person inside!!! I'd love to know why! I didn't bother asking - because the answer would have been total nonsense.

    Always great atmosphere, great food, great beers and cider and a great bar staff. There's always some sports event on the TV's.

    Loved the place, the 2nd floor feels like if you where in your house drinking with yout buddies in couches

    Nice food, good service, great place for sports and the fish and chips are good 👍

    football matches shouldn’t be advertised if then the connection is not reliable, we had to watch a match that was skipping every minute we could’ve gone somewhere else! Argentinian girl I can’t remember the name but she was lovely!!

  • 2/5 Myko 4 years ago on Google
    Good beers. But, biggest negative point is overcooked fish and chips without any promised garniture inside. Mushy peas, tartar home sauce completely absent... Will we come back? To have drinks maybe yes, to eat never

  • 4/5 An5xhi 2 years ago on Google
    It is really great bar / restaurant . The beers and cocktails are quite delicious and well presented , some of their food is good but not all of it . Last time I was there I ordered the beef burger , and so did my friend , we were both left very disappointed by it. The meat was very bland , distasteful and that made for a horrible burger. We barely managed yo eat half of it. I was quite surprised , because the 4 mini beef burgers I have ordered on multiple occasions have been quite delicious. But maybe the rest of the plates are delicious . However if you simply want a drink it is a great place near hotel de ville and vieux Lyon .

    Very friendly and comfortable hotel in a great location. Staff were delightful and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

    We were waiting outside for a table as a group left a table a server asked us if we were wanting food or just drinks. We let him know we wanted both. He said give us a minute and we will clean that table for you. Another server cleaned the table while we stood by and waved us over when she was done. As we approached the table a third server brought over another group and told them it was their table. So we are all standing at the table and the girl that cleaned it said she cleaned the table for us. The third server had a group of 3 and we were 2 so she decided the later arriving group of 3 gets the table and pointed to another table in direct sun that we could have. We were first but ended up having to leave. Never again will we be at this place.

👍 Nice experience in this new restaurant. Gentle staff, there is a nice feeling. I recommend the salads which are super tasty and creative. Could not experience the fresh juice as the restaurant seems to have some teething problems but I will come back in a few weeks to try more.
