Le Capot

Le Capot is a lounge and bar restaurant nestled high above Caluire-et-Cuire, near Lyon and close to the Monts d'Or. This establishment welcomes food lovers throughout the year in a warm and friendly atmosphere centred around a newly designed bar offering tapas and cocktails. Chef Lionel Lelarge and his team highlight seasonal French cuisine crafted exclusively from fresh ingredients. The menu features starters and main dishes of fish, meat, and vegetarian options, as well as desserts prepared by the pastry chef. Signature dishes include a 450-gram forest veal chop, creamy Parmesan risotto with roasted octopus and txistorra, beef tartare, onglet steak, and kidneys with two mustards. Le Capot is highly adaptable for group meals and private events, organising lunch, dinner, cocktail receptions, barbecues, fire pit evenings, seminars, business breakfasts, team-building days, dance parties, and pétanque gatherings. The venue offers several rooms with distinct styles, a bar area, a private lounge called La Villa, a large terrace, and eight pétanque courts, creating a countryside atmosphere just a few minutes from the Cuire metro station. The team tailors proposals according to clients' tastes and budgets, with options for total or partial privatisation, group menus, standing receptions for groups of 12 or more, as well as catering services and home cocktails. The atmosphere at Le Capot is warm and friendly, enhanced by three uniquely styled rooms, a new bar area, a private lounge, and a spacious terrace set in an exceptional natural environment. The inclusion of pétanque courts adds a social and relaxed dimension, evoking the countryside just minutes from Lyon.
