Geneva - Post Report Question and Answers
What typical restaurants, food delivery services, and/or takeout options are popular among expatriates?
They have it all if your willing to pay. From KFC, five guys, McDonald’s, to luxury 5 star Michelin restaurants. We don’t eat out in Switzerland. We save it for our many trips around Europe where everywhere else seems incredibly cheap. On the occasion we have gone to five guys, our family of 6 pays 170-200chf/usd. - Jun 2022
In Geneva almost every national food is available. In the South of France we are just beginning to see more international food. - Jul 2018
McDonald's, Burger King...the usual stuff but it's so pricey it's ridiculous. If you go into France you can save some money on fast food though there aren't many options. - Mar 2014
It was actually the best McDonald's burger I ever had! Really tasty! Even fast food costs a lot, though. There are great restaurants, Swiss and other nationalities. - Mar 2014
Restaurants of any kind, from fast food to gourmet, are very expensive and limited compared to what you would find in a large cosmopolitan city. - Mar 2013
Food. Ah, the food. Amazing food. Fast food, though? OMG, why in heaven's name would you want fast food when you are in Switzerlan and a few steps away from France and a short drive to Italy??? But okay, if you must, there are McDonald's here too. Expensive. Very expensive. One full meal is about $14-16. - Feb 2012
McDonald's and Burger King are throughout CH; however, the menu is slightly different and smaller. The value meal is around 13CHF at either. The food in Geneva seems very repetitive at most restaurants: filet of perch, rosti, fondu, rochlete, pizza, pasta, and a variety of salads. The menu does not really change much from lunch to dinner, except lunch offers half portions. The average price for two at any restaurant: lunch 50CHF, dinner 100CFH - Jul 2009
