Brasserie des Charpennes sur Villeurbanne

Feeling peckish and wanting to avoid restaurants where everything seems to have come straight from the freezer with endless menus? A wonderful discovery made somewhat by chance… and what a surprise! The team is young, dynamic, and truly top-notch: fast, efficient, and always friendly service. The daily specials change very regularly and are often original, which makes you want to come back to discover the new creations. You can taste the homemade quality, and the fact that you can see into the kitchen seals the deal for anyone who might still be hesitant. It's a great place at any time of day: perfect for lunch when you're really hungry, but also ideal for a break during the day, whether it's over a good coffee in the winter or a refreshing drink in the summer. It has definitely become my go-to spot during my work weeks. The place is simple, unpretentious, but that's precisely what makes it so charming. Efficient, welcoming, and delicious… a place you'll happily return to again and again!

Adequate for a city brasserie. It's a shame there's no children's menu. The quality of the wine by the glass could be better.

Quick coffee! No time to soak in the atmosphere... which might be more than just a place to pass through... and the terrace beckons...

Delicious dish of the day. (Chuck steak with fries and salad) The chef was everywhere (in the kitchen, washing up, and serving), and the quality of the food was clearly outstanding. (The chuck steak might not look very appetizing in the photo, but it was excellent.) Well done to her! The waiter was also professional, efficient, and friendly.
