This local institution is a great place to enjoy (rather cheap) food or drinks while literally sitting on the lake. It's also a popular place to go swimming in the summer. In the winter, it's famous for its sauna and for serving the best Fondue in Geneva. Highly recommended. http://www.bains-des-paquis.ch/

Da Tavolone is a hidden gem. You would never notice it while walking by, but this tiny italian deli serves amazing pasta, panini and cheese and charcuterie platters. It also has a nice selection of italian wines. It closes quite early in the evening and is closed on sundays. http://www.tavolone.ch/
