Hi !
i have already found some nice bars in the eastern side of Geneva (old city, plainpalais)
but i can not say the same for the west side (cornavin , servette, near airport).
Does anyone has to propose an interesting place around these (west) areas?
A nice place you can go with a small company or colleagues for wine/beer?
thank you,
charis

Fenomeno on Rue des Paquis is very nice!
FENOMENO bar-lounge the best ;-)
I would add Scandale rue de Lausanne, or the "No Comment" bar rue de Bourgogne (but the area is far less interresting, just mention it as you mentionned the servette/airport area and it's not that far).

Ah, and by the way people in Geneva say right and left side, not west and east, not sure many people would really get what you mean by east and west otherwise :p

to be even more precise, we (native people of Geneva) say "rive droite" and "rive gauche", rive gauche being everything on the left side of the Rhone (the big river), and rive droite is all on the right side (Paquis, Cornavin, etc) but you got that part of course. If you want an english speaking Pub, there s the Pickwick Pub, at the end of the street of Lausanne, they transmit NBA games every sunday during the playoffs!

Les Pâquis area (between Cornavin and the lake side, from rue du MontBlanc to avenue de France) is one of the most genuine quartier of Geneva. Many very nice place to visit.
On the rue de Zurich, you will find "Les 5 Portes" very enjoyable. Also, for those who like jazz, dont miss "Gab's music lounge" just opposite the Novotel on rue de Zurich (Closed on mon). Dr. Gab will sit at the piano near 22h00. Often he has guest musicians. You can get the info on his site =www.gabslounge.com
On rue richemond, you will find the Lola's Bar and the Comptoir restaurant-Bar. Very popular with students and youngs. Good food too at reasonable price. To get there, walk down rue de berne, turn left and then right in small street. Is next to Bagheera Night Club. By car, take rue de lausanne towards versoix and turn right down rue amat and right again in rue richemont. Parking is difficult in this area.

If interested in exploring the area I can email any of you a map I used for a bar crawl through the area last December, see my profile for details.

gabs lounge is interesting. there was a lounge in the detroit airport hilton i think, that burned down in 1987 and its an exact replica. the music can be pretty good. on that note if you like bars with an 80's airport hotel lounge feel to it (and who doesnt?) there is also the wall street cafe on rue arnold winkelried which certainly has architechtual roots in the sioux falls south dakota airport ramada lounge before they ripped it out and put in the swanky new castaways bar and grill...
