The main dish is the typical Swiss recipe of melted cheese which is eaten with rustic bread. The classic menu includes fondue bread as the main course to which by default a small portion of fruit salad is added to finish the meal. The place is very informal, often very popular (I recommend booking) with large single tables where several people sit together. The cheese is really very good, soft and creamy, a must try! Advice: The portion of fondue is abundant and for this reason we took one less portion and it was enough (there were 3 of us and we asked for a portion for 2). Furthermore, to avoid digestion problems, we do not recommend drinking water (which would be cold) but taking hot tea or wine to accompany it. Last tip: as per Genevan tradition , you finish eating the fondue when you also eat the cheese crust at the bottom of the pot.
I sadly have to give this place a rough review. I was told to come here by a friend, and I came on a sunday. They were very busy so (and the menu I could see was only in french) so to be polite I came back on monday afternoon. There was no line, but from the moment I asked for an english menu (they don’t have one) the lady there was impatient with me. I asked for a recommendation and she couldn’t give me one and then the dish I ended up with was not what I was expecting. Had she been more patient with me, this may have been a much better experience. I can’t imagine what it’s like on a busy day. If you speak english just don’t go here. If you do, just opt for the meal of the day and save yourself the hassle. I ended up with a smoked salmon salad with too many carrots (removed before photo). To say this was a disappointing experience is an understatement.
An incredible place to go with friends, incredible cheese fondue experience
Lively spot on a Sunday evening but not too long to get served (go to the bar no table service) and seating available. Only had a drink but food seems to very available. Card payment is from 10 CHF but they will take euros (any change given in CHF). Lovely views of the Lake.
Very popular place in Geneva, where a lot of locals meet to eat. Probably one of the best place to eat a traditional Swiss Fondue. Fondue costs 25 francs per person (pot ca. 1.2 l) and is enough to share with 2 or 3 people, when you buy fondue you get big basket of bread to combine with the cheese (the bread basket can be refilled as many times as you want). Remember: don't drink water to/after fondue, tea or wine are better, cause fondue is very fatty food. Reserevation is not mandatory. CASH ONLY!!! Buvette des Bains is situated within Bain des Pâquis and that means a 2CHF entry fee for adults.
