café lumen in Genève

Previously, for decades, it was a wooden temple. It's located right across the street from where I live and yet I've never been inside. Looking at the photos and the reviews I am sure that it is certainly much better than the Tea-room which is right next door. and which has been drowning in false favorable opinions since I wrote an unfavorable comment during the Covid period because it was absolutely not supportive. Yet the place gives me the impression of being closed off, withdrawn into itself. The exterior is extremely sober, 2 tables max outside, and only if the weather is nice, the glazing is almost opaque making it impossible to see at all if there are people there, among others, and especially not of external menu to look at the dishes offered and no slate boards where the dish of the day could be written, and other little things like the price of coffee with croissant, orange juice, ... in short the ABC of the profession of hotel. Nothing encourages me to enter there since nothing encourages me to enter there. The place absolutely does not give the illusion of being a café restaurant. For fun I'm giving three stars because despite everything, it seems clean to me... but too cold. Accessible to people with disabilities ♿️

Super nice café in the Paquis district, particularly suitable for families.

The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming! The atmosphere was so comfortable and relaxing that you felt like you were at home. The food was fresh, hot and delicious. I really recommend Café Lumen!🫶🫶🫶

I recommend 100%, very good cappuccino, excellent homemade pastries and very friendly staff. A place where you will feel good, a very nice atmosphere at luumen. Thanks to the whole team.

The cafe is worth a visit, their cappuccino is beautiful ☕️

Café Lumen is a must-visit for vegan travelers in Geneva. The warm atmosphere, friendly staff, and delectable vegan cookies make it a true gem.

The coffee is very delicious Au café lumen the decoration is very beautiful Au café lumen it's me Adrián Puente Willy back with my mother been here at café lumen today Friday November 17 for that 2023 the camera is very nice and generous

I don’t get the 5 star reviews and think these must be from friends of the owner. I am sitting here at 9 AM on a Tuesday so prime time. There’s almost no food - only 1 bread roll is available. They have a beautiful coffee machine but the 2 sweet ladies working here have no idea how to make even the most basic drink (cappuccino). Finally, the atmosphere is the lobby of a building right by the toilets.

Counter service Friendly staff and good chai tea From the outside it’s not easy to find the starter…and there isn’t much choice of dessert (afternoon)

Fantastic cafe in Geneva, in Pâquis and closed to Nations and lake. Everything is just fresh and tasty. The staffs are so kind, cozy seats and spacious dining area. I’d surely come back again and again.

One of our favourite places in Geneva! With our 6 and 3 year olds, we go there every week once to have a roll/ waffle with hot chocolate and we play in the indoor area. Kids can be energy bombs, through tantrums :-) and no one is bothered as it is away from the calm area. What a comfort for parents who want to relax and want kids to enjoy the time, too! On the first floor, there is a brilliant place to host birthday parties, too!

Great coffee, super friendly staff!

Very good homemade granola. Calm and cozy atmosphere. Perfect for taking a reading break or working on a PC. The staff is very friendly and pleasant.

Perfect for work. Friendly workers.

I have been in Geneva for 1 year. I went there the first time by invitation and I go back whenever I have the chance. The team is very pleasant, spacious and quiet place, ideal for chatting and working on your computer. I recommend
