Hi everyone! I'm new to Switzerland and currently living in Vevey. I'll be coming to Geneva to meet a friend on Saturday, but she has to leave by 2:30 PM to take her train back to Zurich. Any suggestions for places to visit/things to do for the rest of the afternoon? I enjoy walking around Geneva during summer, but these days it's still winter for me :-) I'd love to visit someplace lively or cozy. I'm planning to take the train back to Vevey around sunset. Would appreciate your suggestions!

I suggest a chocolate viennois in the Remor café, is a mythical place in Geneva :)

Cafe des Arts on the rue des Pâquis is cosy, I go there quite often.
If it's sunny (even though it might be cold), I like to sunbathe and have a cake in Bain de Paquis. Even in winter, there's a lot of people hanging around in the wood deck, that area is shielded from the wind, so you can stay outdoors without freezing.
