A restaurant to share with friends in Lyon and Bordeaux
A story of epicureans
and curious food lovers
From his childhood flavored with duck to the opening of the first restaurant in Lyon, Hugues Chazottes carries on the family heritage rooted in the South-West of France, a true land of gastronomy! It was there that his uncle and aunt, artisan canners and co-founders of Maison Argaud, passed on to young Hugues their passion for duck breast – a precious delicacy that we celebrate here all year long, with generosity, simplicity, and traditional know-how.
And in the South-West, when we love, we share! Driven by this desire to bring the love of fine products to as many people as possible, Hugues created Copain Comme Canard: a table for good friends, food lovers, and epicureans, with a festive, free-spirited, slightly cheeky, and always delicious atmosphere!


The passion of
an authentic terroir
as a legacy
In a city where pork is king, it took boldness to take on the challenge of putting duck in the spotlight! But that didn’t stop Hugues Chazottes, a child of the South-West, raised on grilling duck breasts and slices of rillettes and foie gras, from opening Copain Comme Canard. His goal: to share the love of authentic terroir flavors and the pleasure of welcoming guests with sincerity and conviviality – like friends gathered around large tables, with laughter echoing all around.

Epicureanism
as a philosophy
At Copain Comme Canard, indulgence is not a guilty pleasure – quite the opposite!
Generous dishes, comforting flavors, and fine products shared in good spirits: we celebrate the art of living as it should be, because epicureanism is second nature. We savor the little joys that make for unforgettable memories, and sincere pleasures that always make you want to come back for more…


Conviviality, fully embraced
Here, no fuss – only the pure joy of sharing a warm moment at every service. The pleasure of welcoming you, a relaxed atmosphere, and good humor are the key ingredients we put in every day to create the perfect conditions for a festive break from daily worries. At Copain Comme Canard, we hit pause for a moment to enjoy a vibrant, lively, and gourmet place.
