It’s the Sunday and you are looking for the perfect place to catch up with friends over a leisurely brunch? What might sound like the most profound thing in the world when living in cities like London or Paris, can indeed be challenging in our beloved Geneva. Yes the city is incredibly international, forward thinking, cosmopolitain and so wonderfully diverse, yet on Sunday you will find the doors of most restaurants and cafes closed. But don’t worry, the team at Vivez Luxe has curated a list o four go-to spots for a stylish and lively Sunday Brunch. Eggs Benedict and champagne anyone?
Marcel
Straight from Paris into the heart of Geneva – Marcel is a cool, urban space that serves some of our favorite brunch classics from fluffy pancakes to delightful egg creations. The vibe is young, hip and bustling… perfect for a fun gathering with friends.
Rue des Eaux-Vives 3, 1207 Genève
Living Room
The wonderfully sophisticated, yet effortlessly cool option is located in the understated Ritz Carlton Geneva, or as we used to know if Hotel de la Paix. Choose from an exquisite a la carte menu and let the team spoil you with the brunch of your dreams… think caramelized pain perdu or eggs Benedict with crispy bacon… and why not have a mimosa to make this special occasion even more sparkling?
Quai du Mont-Blanc 11, 1201 Genève
Max
Located in the heart of Eaux-Vives, Max truly has this relaxed Parisian neighborhood feel. Sit back and enjoy the delicious avocado and eggs while taking in the young and stylish atmosphere of this trendy neighborhood. Plus, the coffee and service and great too.
Rue du 31 Décembre 38, 1207 Genève
Aux Merveilleux de Fred
Not necessarily what you might think of when it comes to brunch, however this wonderful boulangerie is open all Sunday long and offers some truly indulgent sweet treats… grab a freshly baked croissant and a coffee to go and head over to one of Geneva’s beautiful parks for a little brunch en plein air.
Rdpt de Plainpalais 9, 1205 Genève
Sunday lunch is the new brunch
Who said that brunch has to be pancakes and eggs? We absolutely love a relaxed Sunday lunch enjoying Café Léo fresh cobb salad… or head over to the one and only Relais de l’Entrecôte for your hearty portion of meat. Are you feeling like a little Sunday getaway? Well, Il Mirtillo in Vessy might be the closest you can get to Italy with their incredible homemade pasta and absolutely charming interiors… and after all ist only a 5 minute drive from central Geneva.
