Café des Bains

Café des Bains Review

Right across from MAMCO (Geneva's museum of contemporary art), in an arty neighborhood that has come to be known as QuARTier des Bains, this trendy-chic eatery-cum-bar that spills out onto a sidewalk terrace during the summer months mixes a classic French café look with contemporary touches (featuring large-scale prints by star Swiss artist-photographer Balthasar Burkhard). World flavors are injected into a basically French seasonal repertoire, although one thing that's always on the dessert menu is American-style cheesecake. Good wines are on offer, many sold by the glass.
