La Commune

La Commune is a food hall at 3 Rue du Pré-Gaudry in the Gerland area of Lyon's 7th arrondissement, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. It gathers several independent kitchens under one roof, so a group can eat different cuisines at the same table, and the cheapest hot plates start at about €8. Because the offer rotates between the stalls, the signature experience is the variety itself rather than a single dish: international street food, from comfort plates to snacks, ordered from the counters and eaten at shared tables. A terrace adds outdoor seating, though its use depends on the weather. The hall is lively, casual and noisy, popular with students, young professionals and groups, with music and an after-work crowd in the evenings; there is no dress code. Drinks include beer, wine and soft drinks from a bar, though the programme was not detailed in the data. Prices are low, with plates from about €8, making La Commune one of the cheapest places in the city for a hot meal. The food hall operates as a walk-in venue and does not take reservations, although groups should arrive early for a large table on busy evenings. Opening hours from Visit Lyon in June 2026 are Monday to Wednesday 11:30 to 14:00 and 18:00 to midnight, Thursday and Friday evenings until 01:00, Saturday 12:00 to 01:00 and Sunday 12:00 to 17:00. The hall closes for part of August 2026, so summer visitors should check dates. The website is lacommune.co. The Gerland and Guillotière area is a short tram ride south of the Presqu'île.
