Time in Lyon

We will be getting off a Tauck river cruise in Lyon, probably around 9:00. Our flight to Dublin doesn't leave until 3:45. Does anyone know of anything to do in the area until we leave for the airport? Any restaurant suggestions would be very appreciated.

 

Thank you!

Go to cours Franklin Roosevelt for chocolate by Maurice Bernachon....there just are no words ;) but here's an article by The Guardian, his chocolate made their list - it is my favorite in the world and I have tasted chocolate in France, Switzerland, Germany and of course the Belgian and from elsewhere but so far, Bernachon is still my favorite! There is a restaurant and tea room attached to the chocolaterie and it is quite good, food runs in the family ;) Bernachon is related to Paul Bocuse (see below) by the marriage of their children and Bernachon President cakes are served in the Bocuse restaurant.

Then - on the same street there is a Michelin 3 star world famous chef Paul Bocuse - would be quite an indulgence and they do lunch. Here is their website to have a look...there are different menus to see, I don't know which one (or all?) are available for lunch. Do make reservations. He has had his 3 stars since 1965.
