Summer offers

Visits full of surprises, wacky workshops, a cosy atmosphere, a Terrasse with a breathtaking view of Lake Geneva, tasty dishes made with love... this is just a glimpse of what summer is like at the Alimentarium!

Online conferences

The Alimentarium is launching its first mini-series of online presentations and round-table discussions (in French only)! Throughout the third week of June, we will be talking about the history of veganism, and activism. This is a unique opportunity for you to ask the speakers all your questions on the topic!

#vegan
The Alimentarium’s new temporary exhibition brings veganism to the fore. Nutrition, gastronomy, ethics, ecology, activism, popular culture… #vegan explores numerous facets of a consumption pattern that is becoming a widespread social phenomenon.
Welcome to our Terrasse
You can now sit back and enjoy a breathtaking view of Lake Geneva! Can we tempt you with our seasonal dishes lovingly prepared by our Chef and his team? We look forward to welcoming you!

Restaurant

The Alimentarium prepares tasty takeaways!

In our Restaurant
Our team of chefs proudly presents a selection of tempting takeaway meals!

“A self-service gourmet restaurant may seem a little unusual, but it’s what’s on the plate that counts. The food is pleasantly surprising, very good even, with a choice of dishes and finesse in the flavour. Well done! Keep it up.”
