We stopped here for a quick bite after hiking up to the Observatory from The Mont-Salève Cable Car and enjoyed both our food and the experience. It was busy but we were seated very quickly. The menu was limited and we had a little trouble communicating what was available due to our limited understanding of French. We ordered a croque monsieur and salad, and a vegetable pesto sandwich. Both came quite quickly and they were tasty. Desert - a cheesecake slice with sorbet - was a highlight. The view is stunning and it was a perfect place to stop during our hike.

Lovely wonderful staff, amazing premium views of Geneva and a rave with the best tekno happening a few metres away on the edge of the mountain. The food was delicious even tho I didn’t speak French a lovely waiter tended to me in Spanish and made me feel very welcome. I recommend trying the steak! The homemade lemonade was also very refreshing.

If you go to the top, you have to reward yourself with a pint. View is incredible to both the Geneva / lake side, and the France side. Not a huge selection of food or drink, but a great place to rest with friends before heading back down.
