We were looking for a spot to get a quick snack and some coffee. We saw an abundance of foot traffic coming in/out of the Globus building and could see people having a meal so decided to go in and check it out. We walked into the Food Hall section of this Department Store. Loud and busy at 3 on a Saturday afternoon. We ordered a couple of Cappuccinos from the Coffee Wine Bar. Came with a piece of chocolate and they did have a choice of Lactose free milk. Coffee hit the spot. We shared a savory Crepe which was filled with fresh mozzarella, tomatoes and Pesto. Tasty and just the right portion. We saw a few other stands-Asia Deli, Patisserie, Seafood Bar, Indian, and Art of Burger to name a few. Service from both stands was fast and friendly. We went up to the third floor and did some browsing. Store was busy also and most likely because most stores/shops are closed on Sunday. That said, the best part of the store was the Food Hall. read more

great place with amazing food -- wonderful deli and food down in the basement. Like the rest of Geneva it's expensive but the quality is really good, so I've been there several times over the years. Very convenient location read more

In Geneva you have your choice of four grocery store lines... (1) Coop (2) Migros (3) Manor (4) Globus. The quality goes from low (1) to high (4). The affordability goes from high (1) to low (4). Globus is top dog when it comes to boutique groceries at the highest quality and with the greatest customer service experience. The produce case may not be as extensive as that you might encounter at Manor but where Globus shines are not the staples, but rather the rare finds and the items that you want to buy as gifts or gastronomic status symbols. To that end, an incredible selection of cured meats, caviars, pate's, seafood, and all the accoutrement, including spherified olive oil and balsamic vinegar. It was one of the only places in Geneva where I could reliably find an English-speaking cheese monger who could educate me on their offerings and even offered to vacuum pack cheeses so that I could bring them back to the US. A gentleman for sure. I recall a day when I was also browsing the tea selection when they sent out an attendant to help me pick out the exact tea for the occasion I needed it. Bakery located within the store as well, which was also premium. read more

It is always a treat to step into a Globus. I don't go often as it is at the high end of the department store and grocery shopping experience in Switzerland, and thus a bit more pricey. I would compare it to a Nordstroms for those from the US. If I do buy anything it is usually from the supermarket as they have gourmet items that you can't get at other places. The store is just beautiful and they do such a great job of how they present everything. It is just fun to explore and look around. I also really like the food court here for lunch time as they have a variety of items to select from and several benches and tables to sit at. Just be ready to jump on a place as it can get hectic to find a seat sometimes during the lunch hour. I have always enjoyed their panini sandwiches here. read more

I loved walk down the floors of Globus, taking time to look at the proposed articles it in a very calm enough Swiss watch precision. And then I saw a beautiful dark grey robe, very good quality, and for a lower price than Descamps seen in France and which are a standard of quality! I did not buy it So stupid I'm ! read more

When I try to describe Globus to friends in England, I usually try to compare it to one of the big London department stores...but I've yet to decide exactly which one fits. Globus is a great place to wander and browse, and it offers good quality for money in just about every area - although the money required is not negligible. And really, that's the only flaw I can find. Unless you're there for the sales (and it's always worth visiting during the sales!), it can stretch the wallet a little. But then, this is Geneva. I'm particularly fond of the food department, down in the basement, which offers a wide range of exotic fruits, vegetables, fish, meat and dried foods, as well as having a pretty good bakery. And, my absolute favourite fresh pasta anywhere (particularly around christmas, when the lobster ravioli is worth the steep price it commands). My mum would probably say she likes the homeware department best, with it's wide range of functional and decorative items. Or the shoes downstairs. Or the clothes...well, she's just a big fan really. But both of us would agree that the restaurant/cafe/snacks area on the first floor is one of the best places for lunch, or for a coffee, in central geneva. A huge range of dishes and cuisines, from thai to italian to pancakes, which means that it's difficult not to find something you like, and all of it good qualitiy. And the best coffee in Geneva - which always comes with either a gorgeous little cake or a delicious truffle. read more

I love Globus! I have visited Globus on every trip that I've taken to Geneva! I used to get my lunch here almost every day, until my office moved (boo!). Globus is a department store - on the ground and upper floors, it's your typical department store. You can buy clothes, makeup, bags etc. But the big appeal for me is the food court! It's really cool - there's a reasonable selection of sandwiches and pizzas, but my favourite is the Asian counter. There's a selection of hot foods (the Pad Thai noodles are my favourite), and they also do sushi. It's not cheap (but nothing is in Geneva!), but definitely tastes good. The other appealing feature of Globus is the supermarket on the lower ground floor. It's pretty big, and has a good selection of foods - Swiss, Italian, Asian... I seem to buy a lot of chocolate when I'm here! Oh, and if you're looking for a plastic bag (which I have done many times) - you don't need to ask for one. Go to the very end of the checkout counter, and there is a little hole with a carrier bag poking out - just help yourself! Otherwise, the staff try to sell you a reusable bag! (I've learnt this after 2-3 visits, a lot of waving my arms around and very broken French!). read more

I was in Globus department store men's clothing floor and I was very disappointed from sales assistants! They were ignoring customers and they just behaved unfriendly + arrogant! I looked at them because I needed help and they just kept talking! I asked another sales assistant who was running past and she obliged herself to search the item I was looking for!! Maybe they indeed find themselves important because they are selling expensive branded articles! Hello! Excuse me, who is going to buy! So that was my second bad experience this year in this division! I was in Globus in wintertime and atmosphere on same floor was just stuffy! I thought maybe they had a bad day but apparently that's not the case! Globus is selling good quality items and deserve better sales assistants. read more

Lingerie! Globus is maybe like a Saks, definitely much more than a Macy's - they have lovely boutique-style departments. The finest: lingerie. Besides La Perla, we don't really have fine lingerie easily available in the US. Indulge, ladies - Simone Perel, Chantelle, and Lise Charmel are available at fair prices. But you can also find travel agencies, mobile phone vendors, theater tickets, a hair salon, and so much more. The food section is just a delight. This place is pricey, but the quality is worth the prive tag. Indulge. read more

This is one of the best places to shop in the whole of Europe! The cosmetics are great, as are the choices in perfumes too. I bought a lovely bottle of Mont Blanc 'Individuel' which you can't fine in the UK and was gutted when it ran out, oh well, that means I might have to go back there to buy some more. What a shame. Everything is so well laid out in the store, and the assistants are very attentive and helpful. The icing on the cake is the foodhall. It's amazing and quite often they give samples of champagne, cognac and fine wine! If only Tesco in the UK could offer the same. It's especially beautiful at Christmas. It really blows you away. read more

This place is absolute heaven! Just happened to walk in on a whim and it turned out to be the happiest accident ever. Globus is a multi-level department store with clothing, cosmetics, housewares, and grocery; the latter of the two being the most impressive. They carry great high end kitchenware, including Global Sai knives that I was dying to find! My favorite spot was the grocery level on the basement floor. They had a great selection of wines, a lovely eat-in cafe area, and had many specialty items (like spices!) you can't find elsewhere. This might be my new favorite place in Geneva! read more

Gobus is the most fancy department store in Geneva ... and while you're often simply paying even more than the typical Swiss premium for goods you can buy elsewhere, there are a couple of things that will always keep me coming back: - food court: not a bad deal at all and nice family style tables and benches. Good place to stop for a weekend lunch - supermarket: has lots of nice gourmet extras but not the place to go for toilet rolls and washing powder! I love this place for their home branded chocolates with rose petals, sugared ginger and other extras that are a really special gift to take back. Also, in their supermarket section are some great hostess gifts like special honey gift packs, spice packs and these great mixed coloured spice grinders - all in the 15-30 franc range. - cosmetics: since Geneva is missing a Sephora, this is the closest comprehensive collection I've found! read more

Service is pretty good, but it depends what you want to buy.The basement has a fab selection of food and local deliacies (wine selection is awesome) But everything very expensive. The hand bags are frankly disappointing whereas the clothes selection is fab! read more

I haven't been Qyping for a while due to exams so I have lots of places to catch up on, least of all the many places I got taken to when visiting my girlfriend and her family at her home in Geneva for a week. She's been raving about Globus for a while they do the best Pad Thai she's ever tasted and when we went to eat there, I had to agree. Unfortunately I'm not a massive seafood fan so I didn't get that dish myself, but I tried some of hers and it was pretty spectacular. The food court has a lot of different counters, each serving a different cuisine. We started off at the oriental counter, and after dragging her around all the others to see if there was anything else I fancied, we ended up back there where I chose the Thai green chicken curry with rice. It was tasty, but unfortunately not the best I'd eaten in my life, and I was sad that it was all chicken and sauce with no veg at all, it could have used some courgette or mange tout to give it a bit extra oomph. Having said that the place itself was lovely, almost like House of Fraser inside, with lots of little shops all in one place, and it was fun to look around, especially with all the chocolate inside and I can't wait to get to go back and try something else, maybe I'll have the duck next time Mmm. read more

Very disappointed and absolutely gutted :( During our visit to Geneva on 29 of April, we visited this store and purchased three bottles of Jo Malone and one jug of body lotion. My cousin & I absolutely adore Jo Malone fragrance. We just recently returned home to Sydney Australia to discover that one of the fragrance have been used. We've purchased a tested product. How disappointing and sad. Sorry , we unsure where to start and we hope that by posting review on this site, management or customer service vet will review this post. Please ensure that this does not happened again. read more
