The Monkey Club

The Monkey Club is an eccentric cocktail bar nestled near Lyon's opera house on Place Tolozan, combining Victorian boudoir aesthetics with a cabinet of curiosities filled with antique photographs and vibrant jungle wallpaper. Chesterfield armchairs and curiosity-driven decor create an intimate setting perfect for aperitifs, private events, and festive gatherings. The kitchen offers fresh, creative cuisine at midday, transforming into a sophisticated cocktail venue by evening with an extensive menu of innovative cocktails using high-quality ingredients. Open Tuesday-Wednesday 5 PM–1 AM and Thursday-Saturday 5 PM–4 AM, the bar features live entertainment from jazz musicians to world music acts, with cocktails starting at €11.
