NYOLEM is a bar that caters to all students in France, including those who are studying abroad! You might already be wondering what is with the name "NYOLEM", and why a travel blogger would put it in their travel blog. Well, this bar is a must-know travel tip to experience the nightlife in Lyon. Lyon is one of the cities in France with the most students with student visas from all over the world, and their bar of choice is NYOLEM. The name NYOLEM is an acronym made from the first letters of all the founders last names. All the founders went to university in France, some were studying abroad on student visas, some were Lyon locals, and some were from other parts of France on an internal exchange student program. Collectively they decided to create NYOLEM upon graduating, in order to give students in France, or young people traveling in France, a place for great music, affordable drinks, and delicious snacks!

Also, if you bring your student card from the university in France where you’re attending, you get ONE FREE DRINK at NYOLEM. There is also a tradition that this French bar has kept since its start: the NYOLEM Cocktail Night on the first Saturday of every month. You get to design your own cocktail to drink with the help of a bartender!
