Slake Terreaux – Coffee & Kitchen – Breakfast all day | Brunch | Cake (Diploid) is a coffee shop and restaurant located at 18 rue de la Platière, in the 1st arrondissement of Lyon. This establishment, part of the Slake Coffee group, is known for its homemade cuisine, specialty coffees, and brunches served all day.
Atmosphere and concept
Inspired by New Zealand's café culture, the establishment blends conviviality and modernity. The bright interior, large bay windows, and light wood tables create a warm atmosphere ideal for brunch breaks, meetings with friends, or remote work.
Specialty coffee
The baristas exclusively prepare specialty coffees sourced from local and international roasters. Each origin is selected for its traceability and distinctive aromas: fruity, chocolatey, or woody notes. Several extraction methods (espresso, V60, Chemex, Aeropress) are offered, as well as milk-based drinks – flat white, latte, chai, or matcha.
Brunch and homemade food
Served continuously (until 2:30 pm on weekdays, 3 pm on weekends), the brunch menu features a sweet and savory selection: pancakes, scrambled eggs, French toast, granola bowls, and daily specials. The recipes use fresh, local, and seasonal ingredients, with vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and lactose-free options available.
Pastries and cakes
The pastry chefs prepare Anglo-Saxon inspired desserts daily: cookies, cheesecake, banana bread, carrot cake, layer cake. A new original creation changes every day, often adapted to special diets.
Welcome and experience
No reservation is required: customers are seated on a first-come, first-served basis, with a virtual queue if it's busy. Popular for its brunches and attentive service, Slake Terreaux is one of Lyon's top brunch spots, praised for the quality of its food and its relaxed atmosphere.
