My favourites places for a drink in Geneva – PART II

Les Brasseurs
Place de Cornavin 20, 1201 Genève
I love having a beer with a yummy Flammekueche at this iconic place in the centre of town. They serve lovely Swiss specialties and daily special lunch options. Les Brasseurs produce their own beer. You can choose a tasting menu of various beers. The vibrant atmosphere and the decor add an impressive touch.



Café du Rond-Point
Rond-Point de Plainpalais 2, 1205 Genève
Every time I walk through Plainpalais, I go past this place and it was only this year that I managed to fit in a visit. It’s a nice and interesting café frequented by all sorts of people. Consistently serves up simple ingredients, fuss free dining, a spontaneous and seasonal menu and, above all, good quality fare. Near the banking quarter and the university area.


Arthur’s Rive Gauche
Rue du Rhône 7, 1204 Genève
A unique setting, ideally located beside the Rhône with a beautiful view of the Jet d’Eau. Friendly and professional staff, great for a drink or a meal in a classy place!

Chez Philippe
Passage des Lions, Rue du Rhône 8, 1204 Genève
Nice decor, impeccable service. The food is delicious, according to Sweetheart, who had some business lunches there. BTW, mostly frequented by business people, but no worries, they don’t bite...in fact, they are cool!

Demi Lune Café
Rue Etienne-Dumont 3, 1204 Genève
A great bar and restaurant for all occasions to chill out with friends, colleagues, or a date... a must! Located in the Old Town it has an original decor, warm atmosphere and friendly staff. I have never eaten there, but have been told that the food is good!

Queen Victoria Bar-Restaurant
Rue du Grand-Bureau 16, 1227 Les Acacias
It is a little tucked away, but it’s a great place to immerse yourself in the local neighbourhood lifestyle and have a hearty meal at their restaurant. This modern bar offers quality bar food with a range of good beers and a short but nice cocktail menu. As a local bar, the ambiance is really warm and friendly. It is frequented by local regulars, walkers, office workers and families.

  12. Great post and great pictures.

    Those locations look like such great places to visit.

    I love high quality beer. In fact I am little obsessed with it. I take notes on every new beer I try and I am very much into pairing it with food. Thus, I really appreciate this post.

    1. Finally someone who is obsessed with beer like me. I recognize myself in your testimony. I rather order beer with a meal instead of taking wine. Nobody seems to understand this... hahaha. Yeah, I'm a beer girl...Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us Brian :)

    1. Actually, it is a PANACHÉ - French mixed drink with beer and carbonated lemonade.
      Yeah, good choice Susan. "Les Brasseurs" is an iconic brewery, a must for lovers of good craft beer.
