In Lyon, we already have plenty of cozy bouchons, charming wine cellars, and starred tables, but we can never say no to a new gem. And the one on the way is bound to make quite the splash! Its name has a nice ring to it: WineYouWant. This future 1000 m² hybrid venue aims to redefine what we call a "temple of gastronomy." Just that! The location? The former Serin college, a stunning building from 1885 nestled between the slopes of Croix-Rousse and the banks of the Saône. Let’s just say the setting is already setting the stage.

An XXL restaurant with 110 seats
Behind this XXL project are three friends and food enthusiasts: Vincent Galy, Pierre Bideau, and Grégory Palayer. Their goal? To create a vibrant, generous, and festive space centered around a love for wine and culinary creativity. To craft the restaurant's menu, they've enlisted the highly respected Hubert Vergoin, a former chef at Substrat, known for his boldness and sensitivity. What's the key feature? 110 covers served every day, for lunch and dinner, in a stylish main room, a light-filled veranda, and two terraces that are sure to be coveted once the sunny days return.

Over 500 wine references
In the cellar, we enter another dimension: over 500 references, from grand crus to little natural gems, and 48 wines by the glass to try all the possible food & wine experiences. It’s simple: WineYouWant hasn't even opened yet and it’s already ticking all the boxes for a place we can’t wait to hang out in. Anyway, we’ll leave you now; we're off to prepare our first reservation!
Address: 2 Serin Square, 69004 Lyon, France
