Gluttony cannot be a defect! It's simple, early in the morning, there is a queue for the fresh and appetizing pastries.

On site, the choice is vast in sweet and salted delicacies, and breads of all kinds, and at any time of the day you can come and dine with sandwiches, quiches, salads… The Montchoisy shop is very popular, with regulars. And in order to pamper yourself with finesse, the team of confectioners charm you with their little sweets, pralines and chocolates! Some specialties such as the caramel tiles and San Marco (egg cream base and caramelized with iron).

The intense scents of dark chocolate or freshly baked pastries and viennoiseries titillate your taste buds. A chocolate maker by trade, it has been 10 years since Joël, originally from the South-West of France, made his place among Geneva's chocolate makers.

A gourmet break awaits you in this charming atmosphere.

You will see it, below the place du Bourg de Four, thanks to its old wrought iron sign. This very old pastry shop has the reputation of being the best in town. So much so that according to the little story, when the rents of the real estate in the old town started to reach peaks, the managers thought of moving. This caused a real outcry. The Genevans "contributed" to help him pay his rent. What could be more convincing to guarantee the fame and excellence of his cakes?

This bakery, patisserie and tearoom offers a range of delicacies to take away or enjoy on the premises, as well as a daily special at lunchtime.
