My favorite vegan lunch in Lyon! - Edit
Against the grain is not to be missed! They feature more whole foods and veggies than other local spots. The staff are sweethearts. Try the roll salé and the brioche! I came back here multiple times during my stay in Lyon.

Brunch engagé - Edit
De passage à Lyon, j'avais repéré Against The Grain dans mes adresses à tester
Read moreOn a composé un brunch en prenant un peu de tout, l'assiette salée hyper simple, comme à la maison, mais très bien travaillée et souvent c'est largement suffisant, j'ai craqué pour la crème au chocolat qui était incroyable (la dernière!), le pizza roll qui était très bon et une boisson chaude
Pour la route, sur le retour on a fait une boîte très gourmande avec de la brioche et des pains suisses, quel bonheur de pouvoir manger ça en version vegan et quel bonheur de trouver un lieu qui crie haut et fort ses engagements !
Pros: L'engagement de l'équipe, La simplicité , L'accueil

Highly recommended for lunch - Edit
We considered having the brunch deal but even for us it would be too much food! Instead we each had the pancake Benedict and one soup, and took a cheddar roll to have later. Everything was great, including the staff.

Très bon ! - Edit
Le brunch et les plats du midi sont très savoureux, je recommande sans hésitation !
Read moreJ'ai eu l'occasion de tester quelques pâtisseries, les classiques comme le carrot cake ou cinnamon roll, ou plus originales notamment le flan aux épices chaï et j'ai été très satisfaite a chaque fois. Hâte de tester le tiramisu !

Lovely place - Edit
I had chocolate flan and matcha latte with rice and hazelnut milk. Everything was delicious even though I was slightly disappointed they were no longer serving savoury food.

Were only here for a quick break - Edit
We only had a smoothie, cola and a pumpkin cinnamon roll. The roll was good but a bit on the drier side.

Loved it! - Edit
I really enjoyed my lunch there, the food was delicious, especially all the baked goods (forgot to take a picture).
Read moreThe juice I had was good and fresh, service was fast and the terrace is nice.
You have to book a table if you go there for lunch though because it’s quite small.
