Bongo Joe Geneva
Vinyl records, with a view
Megha from Geneva
Bongo Joe is a place for collectors and vinyl record hobbyists. Situated in the tiny island just off Bel-Air in Geneva, Bongo Joe is a household name among the vinyl record community.
The establishment boasts a vast collection of records and is also a space for meeting like-minded people. Bongo Joe is also the place to grab a drink and share joyful moments with friends after work, with the beautiful view of the Rhone.
The place has a cool, earthy, hipster vibe to it. If you are a music lover and want to meet people who share the same passion as you, this is the place. Or, if you just want to sit back, relax, and watch the water flow by you with a drink in your hand, head straight over to Bongo Joe.
During summer, the place bustles with activity and the chatter of the visitors.
