    After going for a nice stroll around the botanical gardens, we needed a hot beverage to warm ourselves. We parked not too far away and walked to Mr. Pickwick Pub. There seemed to be a good handful of people there enjoying their libations. Plenty of seating near the bar and the back. Apparently there's a downstairs area for more seating, but we didn't get a chance to take a look. We settled on hot tea as the selection for warm drinks weren't too interesting. They had a bunch of beer on tap. There were multiple screens for sports and other interesting content. There was one screen which was showing a dart match. I've never seen people playing darts so seriously in my life, but it was engaging nonetheless (but you're talking to someone who watched bowling when they were a kid...). Overall good loungey atmosphere. It looked like many of the folks there spoke English and from what the Myke H. has stated that's their preferred language. Probably good for the tourist and those who like beer.

    Took the tram here from hotel near the center. Easy to get to friendly staff and fellow expat drinkers. Fun place.

    Lady Godiva and The Club House have surpassed this place. Service is patchy and food average. Needs fresh management.

    As far as Geneva Irish Pubs go - this isn't a bad one. In fact, I would go as far to say it's the…read morebest one in Geneva at the moment. Let's begin with the major positive point - The food, which is out sourced, is rather pleasant and a welcome change to most of the grub you get in Geneva. You can tell, hands down, that this is all freshly prepared and tastes like it too. The half ribs and chicken is my favourite, but then again I am a lover of ribs. The pies are tasty and the chips are certainly some of the best in Geneva. The price as well isn't something to grumble about and as you don't order their garlic mushrooms (trust me, thats the one thing you don't want to eat there) then it's a lovely experience. Another positive here is that the staff have always seem to have a big smile on their face. The music is a lot more Irish than in some watering holes and the decor is some what Irish, although less so than the lovely, yet awfully managed Mulligans in the centre of town. There is free wifi and they show lots of the GAA so big plus there. Many a night I have spent here and got drunk, and would recommend it to anyone having a little get together!

    I finally went to this place, to hear a band actually. My biggest problem in the Geneva area is I…read moremiss my vodka drinks. I am a vodka and cranberry juice girl and most bars don't even carry cranberry juice, which my French friend tells me is rather new to the area all together. Never the less, this place had cranberry juice and the bartender made ms a fabulous cocktail, served in a giant iced tea sized glass no less. They also carry one of my favorite beers Franziskaner. I tried the fish and chips - great, not greasy at all. My only issue with the place was I couldn't order a plate of french fries alone. I don't understand that one, but I liked it there and the band was fantastic, The Square Brackets.

    If you're looking for an English speaking crowd in Geneva, you have Mr. Pickwicks, The Clubhouse,…read moreand Lady Godiva. Among these three, Lady Godiva is definitely the nicest. We found ourselves hungry in the southern side of Plainpalais, when we happened on LG. We had actually been looking for another restaurant, which was closing just as we arrived. I convinced my friend, who was by then suffering from starvation-induced crankiness and despair, to give the generically-Irish looking pub a chance. Stepping inside is a surprise, as it's much nicer than you would expect from the plain black exterior. The bar is long and deep, with huge chalk-writing on the wall announcing their specials and cocktails. The windows are adorned with Christmas lights, which somehow avoid being tacky and actually creates a nice environment. And if you're like me and don't like pubs in general, the restaurant-like setting makes LG feel almost elegantly romantic, as long as you can get passed the big screen TVs showing football or basketball. Most importantly, of course, the burgers. We both had the Town Burger with Cheese, and I was a bit skeptical as they didn't ask how we wanted our meat cooked. So I was very pleasantly surprised to find the meat with a juicy pink center! I'm apt to believe that the lovely Lady Godiva has decided that burgers should ONLY be cooked medium to medium rare, and has made an executive decision not to offer it any other way. The patty could have used just a little more spices, but I was very happy with the quality of the meat. I'd forgot to ask them to hold the thousand island dressing on the burger, but was very happy to find that the burger only had a very thin swirl of the dressing on the bun, just enough to add flavor without making the burger soggy. Oh, and did I mention that the bun was beautifully toasted and tasted really good? The fries were thick-cut, "typical British fries," according to my British dining-mate. They weren't outstanding, and I had a few fries that seemed a bit under-fried. Lady Godiva was one of the places that have been touted as having the best burger in Geneva. In fact, I think pretty much all burger joints in Geneva have been raved about by someone or other as having the "best" burgers. While I wouldn't say Lady Godiva was the best, I would happily give it a top 2 or 3 rating among the places I've tried so far. It's also on the other side of town from the other two English/American pub options, so definitely worth a go if you find yourself on the left side of the river looking for a friendly crowd to watch a game or just have a good burger.

    I've held off reviewing the Lady Godiva Pub, also known as Lady G to locals, for a number of…read morereasons. I've had friends work here and quit due to the behaviour of the owner, and I have had friend refuse to ever go back because of problems with staff. Needless to say this is as blunt and honest a review as I can give. To start with, lets just address a major problem with this pub - It's price. Located in the heart of the 'cheap' student area of the city, the price is more expensive than some of the hotels next to the lake! The food as well is priced extremely high considering the options available around the area. There are very few deals on, and despite the rather impressive selection of beers on tap, the selection of other drinks is rather limited. Secondly, this is more of a restaurant than a pub... and to be honest I would rather call this a Gastro-Restaurant than a pub. The food selection is large and over priced, and the qua lit is nothing to rave about. They recently did a revamp not he food menu, but it is still appalling. On a more positive note, the amount of sport that they show is great and it does seem to fill up nicely for the odd big event that they host. However, friday night after 11, this place becomes a grave-yard. The pub quiz is good, although there are better ones in Geneva, such as The Clubhouse. To sum up, this pub seems to be stuck & in need of some major changes; but all is not lost!
