Fun Group Lunches in Lyon

Restaurant for Lunch with the Brits

 We have written separately at various times about some of the lunch groups we participate in.  Some groups are men- or women-only, and others have both men and women participants.  Either way, they provide a congenial and fun setting for social interaction with both French and non-French people in the Lyon area.

 May Lunch with British

These groups typically are organized by one or two people and eat lunch at sometimes the same, or, a different restaurant each month.  The group that always includes both men and women is a British-based group, which admittedly makes it easier for us, with our sometimes-limited French conversational ability.  The women’s group is organized specifically for women who wish to speak English in a social environment.

May Men's Lunch Group

While there have sometimes been speakers organized for these lunches, over time, they have mostly now evolved into strictly social affairs.  In any case, for us, the lunches have provided an opportunity for us to expand the range of our acquaintances and of our experiences.
