Daniel & Denise Créqui

This is where it all began! Daniel and Denise Léron opened this famous Lyonnais bouchon in 1968, before Joseph and Françoise Viola took it over in 2004. Two “Meilleurs Ouvriers de France” (Chefs of the Year) have run the place for more than 50 years: something that makes it very special.

This gastronomic bouchon is located near the Part-Dieu train station. Take a trip through Lyonnais culinary heritage with a fine, elegant meal. Enjoy a friendly, warm atmosphere–whether you sit in the dining room or on the outdoor terrace (open in the summer). Daniel & Denise Créqui has been awarded a “Bib Gourmand” from the Michelin Guide.

Continuing Lyonnais traditions, we offer “mâchons” in our three restaurants (by reservation only). The mâchon is a traditional meal that Lyon’s silk-weaving workers used to have in the morning after their night work. It is made of pork and beef products and red or white wine.

We offer group menus upon request 12 guests minimum.

Our restaurant is available for private bookings for up to 70 guests. Our dining room is also available for your private events, accommodating up to 12 guests (excluding COVID-19 period).
