It is on the Pentes, the steep slope of the Croix-Rousse, just a few minutes from the bars of the Presqu’île.The room is small, the atmosphere family-like, and the music revolves around Wham, Madonna and co. Guests praise the friendly owners and the fact that you can request songs.Atmosphere and crowdThe crowd is mostly male and comes mainly for the 80s and 90s music, so many guests are from their mid-30s up.
