Le Bouchon “Chez Paul”, located at 11 rue Major Martin in Lyon, is a true institution of Lyon’s gastronomy.

This historic bouchon, anchored in the heart of the Presqu’île, perfectly embodies the friendly and authentic spirit of traditional Lyonnais bouchons.

For decades, it has welcomed lovers of good food in a warm and rustic atmosphere.

La décoration, typique rappelle les auberges d’autrefois, avec ses nappes à carreaux et son mobilier en bois.

Here you can enjoy local specialties such as quenelle, tablier de sapeur or cervelle de canut, prepared with care and generosity.

At Paul’s, the taste of the land blends with a love of traditions, in an atmosphere where the Lyon accent and laughter still resonate.

This iconic establishment is much more than a restaurant:
it’s a journey into the culinary soul of Lyon. A must-visit for discovering the true culture of Lyon’s bouchons (traditional Lyonnais restaurants).
