Our great sandwich and terrible sandwich. Lol
Sarah K.

Well worth a visit but don't expect to be impressed by the food (hence the reason for my 3 star rating) Great outdoor seating and the spot to be and be seen on a Saturday afternoonin Geneva. A very busy spot (on Sat afternoon) and a seat yourself situation. Note: given the popularity on Sat afternoons, plan to hawk other tables in order to get a table as soon as people get up from their chairs. This is the only way to do it. Otherwise, you snooze you lose. It pretty hard core :). Prices: very inexepensive for Geneva standards. Location: can't get better in the center of Old Town, cobblestone streets, open air setting, alps in the distance, Lake Geneva in the backdrop...just exceptional. Food selection and quality: not great. Menu is very limited and some food items were very good while others were terrible. For us, the cured ham sandwich on a baguette was wonderful but the cheese sandwich was terrible (basically on a hamburger bun). Wine and beer: limited list of choices but both beers that we ordered were amazing. We had the French beer option and Prague beer option. Both were great. Service: Really great. Friendly. Attentive and not overly invasive. Guests: all type of people visit this outdoor cafe. Trendy. Rich. Casual. Families. Tourists. Locals. Europeans. Americans. English. the table next to us mixed their conversations between English, French, and Italian. Two tables over was a group of young men (maybe rugby players). The table a few spots down came with their baby in a baby carriage. Overall, I was happy to visit this place. We had fun sitting outside and enjoying the day. And people-watching was especially entertaining at this spot.

As we were romping on our first day in Geneva, post Shawarma eating, I needed something warm and delicious in my belly. My boyfriend led us here after St. Peter's Cathedral in the part known as Old Town. Not much in terms of seating area in the indoors, but plenty on the outside. It's well known in this area especially in terms of their bar. Apparently the whole street in front gets covered in tables and seats in the summer warm months. I think for us indoors was the best bet and luckily enough there was a small table. We opted for a hot chocolate with whipped cream. It definitely hit the spot. That whipped cream was no fat free sugar free cool whip and that's how I like it! Since the new no smoking indoors was in affect, I was able to tolerate sitting indoors though the smokers were just inches away from the doorway. The place was pretty busy but they eventually got our order. For about 4.20 for the traditional hot chocolate, but 5.20 with the whipped cream. Pretty pricey according to my boyfriend, no matter. It's our "vacance"! Great pit stop to or from the Cathedral.

Offset from the bar is a cigar lounge which is of considerable repute. The cigar selection was…read moremeager and a Montecristo No. 4(?) cost $46. There is a review saying that the prices are decent but I think anyone coming from the US will find this exorbitant. There is a large cocktail menu which does feature a pretty good selection of drinks, though at a $24 entry point for low-end whiskies and bourbons and into the $30s and $40s for anything that feels baseline appropriate to drink with an expensive cigar. The atmosphere for the first 30 minutes (say, 9:30pm to 10:00pm) was relaxing but then a large group came and commandeered basically every free table/chair in the small room. There are 3 distinct seating arrangements in a room with a seating capacity of maybe 18 people. Members of the group were wearing outfits mixed with athleisure wear and talking on cell phones. Then there another slob showed up separately and kept pivoting around the humorously cramped room eyeing everyone up and talking about how he wanted to turn the illuminated exit sign off. The branding and prices suggest one atmosphere, but staff seemed to welcome and accommodate a completely different atmosphere. It's hard to encourage others to spend what is nearly a $100 minimum if there is no protection against the room turning into a party thrown by the international fraternity. I'm all for revelry, just would expect a more delicate experience at this price point.

We had a great experience when Justin was working. I was giving this place 5 stars based on that…read more But we came back again twice more. The second night the service was excellent as well. A gentleman took our coats and umbrella, and without us realizing it, he had them brought to our room. What service! On the last night, the host sat us in a main an area where people were walking in front of us. It wasn't pleasant. He said there wasn't space in the cozier areas, but then came back later, after we were all settled and said he could move us. By that time, we were not going to pick up and move. He then pretty much ignored us. But I digress.... It really is a spectacular place. Justin made the BEST drinks. You also get a great set up for appetizers included. When we came for after dinner drinks the first night, we got a great plate of macarons and fruit. The next two nights we got only macarons... I say "only"... but they were wonderful, and went well with our port. The woman that was singing did a nice job and created a nice clubby vibe as we sipped our drinks. On the nights we sat in the main area, we had wonderful seats near the fireplace. It was a great end to wonderful days touring. The prices are high, but you expect that in Geneva in a nice hotel.

I came here for a glocals Friday night party and thoroughly enjoyed my time at the bar on the 2nd…read morelevel but less so on the 1st. The barman was supremely talented and put on a show for every cocktail he made. I was spellbound. I had a strawberry mojito that was simply delectable. The sound system on the 2nd level is excellent; you can feel the sound reverberating throughout your body and the DJ played some songs I really like. The dance floor is on the 1st level and I had a difficult time enjoying myself because the DJ on this level was playing very outdated songs. I get very annoyed when a DJ doesn't know how to feel the crowd and everyone was on the dance floor wanting to dance the night away but they were hardly moving because the music wasn't good. I give this place a 4 because I really enjoyed the 2nd level and the drinks, but I wouldn't come here to go dancing.
