    A nice place to come take a drink and dance. The bartender is very nice and the service is fast and accurate. The place was packed when we arrived however we were able to find a table to sit after a short time of our arrival.

    I visited on pub quiz night and the atmosphere was great. While both expats and French were present, most conversations (and the pub quiz) was in French. After the quiz, many tables stood up and a lot of them mixed and chatted; there is a definite community here, and outsiders can easily join in. The staff are friendly and fun. Also mostly international, from UK, Australia, etc. Highly recommended.

    Bar staff were incredible. Looked after thousands of thirsty Welsh Rugby fans all weekend, and kept smiling even when it was 4 deep at the bar. Thoroughly recommend

    Had a great Friday night, place was rammed and jumping, DJ was fun and drinks were flowing. A lot younger and louder than I remember, but fun was had.

    It was very cool night! The atmosphere is already so cool and the people who work there are so nice. I was alone and told one bartender that it was my birthday, after some time they offered me one drink and they also drank with me! We did cheers together <3 That was so cute, très mignon !

    Great pub, great vibe… all the way from South Africa and I have to say it is one of the more decent and fun bars I’ve been to. Service is great as-well and would fully recommend it to all

    Really great and authentic British pub in a great area of Lyon. Fantastic beers, and felt so real it made me miss home!

  • 3/5 P B. 6 years ago on Google
    A decent pub in a busy location. Nothing really special about this place other than it is part of the elephant and castle pub system. So if you have a loyalty card with one, you can use it at the other. We had a small group and tried the "nachos" and the summer IPA. The IPA wasn't bad, but the "nachos" needed some work, but it was okay I guess for a pub quality food... Will probably visit again, but most likely will not be my first choice. Nothing wrong with the pub, just nothing special.

    Had a wonderful time watching the baseball last friday in the pub. I was served by a scottish guy with a beard named Edmed ? Not sure. anyway he was super friendly and made my time in the pub great. Id be sure to come back and pay my friend Edmed a visit if im ever in Lyon again. Give that guy a raise !!

    It opened until early morning (Around 3 AM). Quite crowed compared vs other bars nearby. Coctail is at 9€/drink. The atmostphere was nice but the music wasn't quite good.

    Friendly bar staff, good selection of beers. Layout is a bit odd for viewing of the screens but still works. Sport available on all the TV's and staff always willing to change it to suit your game

  • 4/5 Borys T. 5 years ago on Google
    Nice beer selection, nice staff, nice decor and generally good vibes

  • 3/5 Grahame R. 2 years ago on Google
    Decent beer but not a real pub.

  • 5/5 Julien M. 2 years ago on Google
    Best pub ever. David & Ross are the best. Thank you for this night !

  • 1/5 Grahame R. 2 years ago on Google
    Not a bad British style beer but not a real pub. Only one toilet for men and women so times of high beer consumption might be stressful.

  • 4/5 Andy S. 2 years ago on Google
    OK place to go, in a good spot in a busy food and drink area, but for me it needs some better cask ale to make it a real British pub.

  • 5/5 Stuart H. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best places to come and have a drink. Friendly staff, great music, fun quizzes and events. I'll greatly miss this pub when I move away!

    Warning to other girls: place to avoid!!!! Went to this bar on Friday to watch the rugby game with my boyfriend and friends. My boyfriend brought a cup of his own (a thermical one, with stickers, very different from the glass cups they provide you with at this bar) and before leaving, we asked one of the girls at the bar to put water in it so we could drink while on our way back home. When we passed the door, the “security” man grabbed us *strongly* accusing us of leaving with drinks from the bar, and he wouldn’t listen to us, we were trying to explain it was a cup of ours filled with water. The whole thing went really fast, but he was grabbing my boyfriend from his t-shirt around his neck. I thrown him the water I had in the cup and he hit me in the face. For the first time in life an unknown person/man hit me in the face… This got me to think and think and I honestly have ONE question for the ones who run this establishment: why can’t you provide with the people you hire with a minimum training to stop reacting automatically and have a minimum critical thinking while approaching other people? The whole situation could have been avoided if he would have just LISTENED to us. In a place where people come to drink and have fun, this kind of situation (or other situations that can easily be misunderstood) can happen again. And if your staff are not trained, you are the ones to blame. Instead of having a good night, after having spent a lot of $ in your bar, that’s what we got. Congratulations for the disgusting management!

👍 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.
