"This is one of the most famous bakeries in Lyon. It has unusual decor, with portraits of the famous puppet Guignol, which was invented in Lyon and was a key figure in the childhood of all French children for years. When you enter the bakery, you see the wood oven is on, that everything is very small, and, in general, it's packed! The name comes from the courthouse located next door. There're delicious pizzas, made of leek and goat cheese, Reblochon cheese or bacon. To be honest,it's too small to eat inside, but you are in the neighborhood of Old Lyon, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and should take the opportunity to go for a walk! I recommend trying the "aux pralines Brioches," which is a kind of sweete bread with red pralines. It's a little more expensive than a lot of the other bakeries in town, but the quality is better too, and it's worth a visit." (
