The best lounge bars Rhônes-Alpes

An A-Côté that we like to call our main address. A-Côté because this space, which is only open during the summer season and depending on weather conditions, is at the far end of the Clocher terrace and petanque court. But once you've found it, you'll never want to leave! A lounge atmosphere with comfortable sofas and a small Japanese garden to enjoy the fine weather without a cloud in sight. A selection of wines, beers, aperitifs and cocktails, as well as a "finger food" menu to enjoy tapas during an aperitif that extends right through to a game of pétanque. Privatization to celebrate any personal or professional event.

Created in 1904, the course, slightly hilly, is located between lake and mountain. The majestic trees of various species, combined with water hazards and white sand bunkers, make it a very pleasant course to the eye but very technical. Particularly noteworthy is hole 10, a long par 5 of 525 meters with a slight dog-leg right, difficult because of its slope and a green with several plateaus whose attack is blind. Hole n° 15 is a magnificent par 3 of 149 meters, very spectacular with a plunging view on the lake of Geneva.

At the Recoin (1650), a nice novelty. Anakoo, a lounge bar, surprises first of all by its nice decoration in a very personal style. Normal, Julia, the manager of the place, is an upholsterer and creates herself its seats and its benches in her workshop located beside the bar. And if, like us, you fall in love with the place, decorative objects and 100% handmade furniture are for sale. Permanent exhibitions (paintings and sculptures) that change regularly. On the bar side, a nice selection of local beers and wines to accompany quality sweet and salty dishes.
