Geneva after work - Cheese and Wine in Grottes market
Looking for a relaxed laid back afterwork option during the summer ? instead of going to Bain des Pâquis, why not hang out in Grottes ? This is a place where you can chill out with colleagues while snacking on local wine and cheese, I'll tell you why you should go.
Keep in mind the market closes at 8pm, and you might be asked to give up your barrel, sorry table...
So, for people looking for things to do in Geneva, here is definitely a good after work setting for food and drinks, as well as for socializing ! Who said Geneva was boring ?
Grottes market is centrally located
Access is easy, a few steps behind the train station. Located in a car-free zone, you will find several market stands to buy what you like. The place is noisy, popular, and packed with people from all walks of life: students, expats, international civil servants, residents of the area...I like the laid back atmosphere of it, and the fact that everyone feels comfortable there, no matter how they are dressed. You can eat on makeshift tables (barrel or even more original), share it with another group. I find that this kind of place facilitate contact between people, which is not easy in every place.
Cheese, Wine and bread at the Grottes on Thursdays
What you will find there is mainly 3 things: wine (red, white and rosé), cheese and bread. For each of these, there is ample choice. Vegetarians will even find happiness there, there is a possibility to order food from there.Keep in mind the market closes at 8pm, and you might be asked to give up your barrel, sorry table...
