Fodor's Expert Review Café des Bains

$$ Rive Gauche (Left Bank) Eclectic Fodor's Choice

Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.

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 and regularly changing artwork. 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.
