    We were there for the performance by Stéphane Vincenza trio. The place is amazing, with an intimate atmosphere to really feel and discover the universe of jazz. The pizzas on the menu were really one of the best in town. Everything about this place is incredible. One of the best places in town to spend your evening.

    Great place for live music! Absolutely unique atmosphere. The staff is friendly, the prices fair and the concept great. You decide how much you pay for the music! A nice place to hang out with other music lovers to enjoy jazz, a drink and a hot pizza!

    Fabulous place and musicians, a real jazz cellar where one is close to the artists. Being on a break in Lyon sorry that we were in a restaurant during the first part of the show and only appeared on the second set. Highly recommended.

    A real gem of the cultural scene in Lyon! La clef de voute is a super cozy, friendly jazz club with great atmosphere and really good music. There is a jam session after the concert EVERY NIGHT, and the club is ENTRY FREE, which makes it a great opportunity for young jazz musicians to play a couple of tunes with the band and get to know some of the pro musicians playing there. There is a nice pizza restaurant right at the next door, so you can order your pizza to be served directly into the jazz club. The bar is also very friendly and the prices are fine. Overall, I had a great evening there and would go again anytime I will be in Lyon again.

    What a great jazz club! La Clef du Voute is a friendly, intimate space, perfectly suited to enjoyment of the terrific jazz featured there. The regular musicians are immensely talented and play with a joy that is infectious. The club also features and fosters young talent -- we were thrilled on a recent visit to see so many 20-somethings both on stage and filling the audience. What's truly amazing is that admission is free -- patrons can leave what they choose in the box at near the entrance -- and prices for pizzas (delicious!) and beverages are very reasonable. If you love jazz, you owe it to yourself to spend an evening here!

    The musicians were amazing, always smiling and having a good time. The seating is a bit chaotic and that’s the only reason they lost a point from being a 5 star. The pizza’s were delicious! Taking some friends back here for sure.

    We found this amazing place via Maps and when we visited, it was full. Seems like reservation was mandatory almost 1,5-week ahead so if you plan to pay a visit there, make sure to check their schedule (astonishing performances) and make a reservation. Their pizza (which we were not able to taste) seemed delish as well. 10/10 recommend.

  • 5/5 joseph b. 2 years ago on Google
    Wonderful place, I was so lucky to find this place randomly on the web ! High level musicians playing with their heart and smiles, especially this "Maxime Brébet", with who I almost fell in love. Highly recommended place !

    A brilliant night out in Lyon! Great wine and pizzas, but the music stole the show. Truly world class musicians, with a very welcoming atmosphere. Would recommend to anyone, for any occasion. A hidden gem in the beautiful Corix-Rousse!

  • 5/5 Serban T. 11 months ago on Google
    Best jazz club in town. Really passionate and dedicated musicians

  • 5/5 S T. 5 years ago on Google
    This place was amazing. We rolled up 5mins before the band started on a Friday night, there was no huge line up or ridiculous entry fee. We bought drinks over the bar straight away and were able to find seats. The crowd was small which made it more intimate and the jazz band was awesome! The jazz sesh lasted for about an 1hour. Was thoroughly enjoyable!!

    I came here tonight with my fiancé and best friend. Although not a fan of Jazz I had one of the best nights. The music was amazing, the musicians play each song with intent and passion. Really smooth sound and a funducational experience as the head musician explained each song before playing. Now on the bar. Clean, neat and mostly affordable. There aren’t many options which is nice, it allows us to have quality product and service. I did not taste the pizza but they smelled extra good ( I caved at 10:29 and went to order one but the very nice bar maid informed me that they stopped food service at 10:30 pm. Why lord? Why tempt me and not allow me salvation!) Overall it was great, i 100% recommend this place for a fun and chill night out with a friend or your partner, even if he/she/them doesn’t really like Jazz.

    Wonderful event with 🍷🥂 so good pizza and exceptional jazzmen ! What for a jazzclub!

  • 5/5 JINGYI L. 1 year ago on Google
    It was a brilliant idea! We rarely had such experience to sit so close to the musicians. I felt it was a rich experience, to drink wine , eat pizza and surrounded by musics. A retreat and healing ~ my friend loved it as well.

  • 5/5 massimiliano s. 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic hidden gem in Lyon. Great jazz, great beers and wines! Stefano is a great piano player and very friendly. I found the place rooming in Lyon and it was definitely the best that could happen.

  • 5/5 Marc N. 1 year ago on Google
    Great experience, friendly staff. Welcoming atmosphere and best of all Ammmmmazing Jazz! I love the idea of 0€ entrance, as a result Jazz is more accessible. Make sure to compensate while leaving for sustainability and play your role in making Jazz more accessible. Enjoy!!

  • 5/5 Angela C. 1 year ago on Google
    Such a cool, unassuming, quality jazz bar. Downstairs with great jazz music (no cover but make sure to tip your musician!) and great wines and beer available. Can also order pizza from upstairs.

👍 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.
