For an affordable meal (CHF 10-25), consider dining at Geneva restaurants such as Chez ma Cousine, a chain of three restaurants offering an unpretentious menu featuring four or five chicken dishes with sauce, salad, and fries. Another option is Manora, an establishment with a wide selection of fish and meat dishes. Here, you have the opportunity to create your own pizza or salad, enjoy freshly squeezed juices, and savor bircher muesli.
Some of the best restaurants in Geneva include Le Chat-Botté, known for its French cuisine (business lunch around 70 CHF), and Les Armures, one of the oldest restaurants in the city center. Les Armures has received many positive reviews for its cuisine and interior.
For another interesting dining experience, check out Inglewood, a burger restaurant known for its high prices but popular for burgers made from local beef that are in high demand. Additionally, Le Lacustre is a family restaurant offering Italian and Swiss cuisine, including dishes like lasagna, fish dishes, and homemade bread. Prices in Geneva restaurants typically range from 50 to 200 CHF.
Swiss chocolate and other sweets can be savored in the best cafes in Geneva. For instance, you can visit the oldest cafe, La Clemence (known for its delicate eclairs), or Auer Chocolatier (offering dozens of types of sweets with various fillings, such as Sichuan pepper or lavender). Prices in Geneva's cafes typically start at 15-20 CHF, and in places like Au Pied du Cochon, Café de Bourg de Four, Café du Centre, or La Perle du Lac, the quality is on par with expensive restaurants.
