This happening jazz bar at the Fairmont Le Montreux Palace is named for local legend Claude Nobs, the founder of the Montreux Jazz Festival. It features spacious, wood-paneled interiors, burgundy leather chairs, and enthusiastic bartenders who shake up inspired house cocktails to the beat of live musicians. A full menu features traditional Caesar salads and club sandwiches, alongside more exotic fare like crab tempura with ponzu sauce. All this fun, however, comes at the standard high prices of a hotel bar.
