Tasse Livre

In my search of a home away from home here in Lyon I have tried many coffee places looking for a kozy feel, laid back atmosphere, free wifi and good coffee. And I found it all in one place, near Place Sathonay on Rue Louis Vitet.




Its called Le Tasse Livre and it is a bookstore as well as a coffeehouse. It sells particularly books of local authors and graphic novels, most of it in french.






The people who run the place work there themselves and are real nice. They They sometimes have art exhibitions of local artists, and some pieces there are for sale.
The coffee there is good and they also have smoothies, salads and soups, most of which is bio. Its a great place to go out for coffee with friends or to study when you get tired of your desk at home.

Like most places nowadays it has a website you can check out.
If you go there you might as well check out the store next door to Tasse Livre. It´s a store that sells clothing, accessories and stuff from Hong Kong. Not cheap in price but really cool, especially if you are into hip designs and bling bling.
Take a look at this video about the store. Real cool
