Our guide
Lyon's kosher restaurants sit in the 6th, around Boileau, Baraban and Weill, under the Lyon Beth Din. Fifty & Five for a sit-down meal, Comptoir 43 for a family grill, Le Namal for pita. TODA still appears in old guides — it is not on the current Beth Din list, so do not treat it as kosher. The Great Synagogue is on Quai Tilsitt, across the river. Sleep in the 6th if you want restaurants on foot. The synagogue is a longer walk, or a taxi before sunset.
Our recommendations
- Stay in the 6th for Shabbat on foot, not Vieux Lyon.
- Book evenings — Fifty & Five and Comptoir 43 fill up.
- Check bethdin-lyon.fr before you book — the list moves.
Stay in the kosher area of Lyon
Lyon does not have one obvious Jewish quarter. Chabad Lyon (Chabad house listed on the site) is the anchor - book a hotel within walking distance of it rather than picking a random part of Lyon.
To count as a booking, finish it in the same window after you click - it isn't saved for tomorrow.
