Megha from Geneva

About me Born and raised in India, I made my way to Geneva in 2021 at 29 to pursue a master's degree. A journalist turned communications professional, I'm fuelled by food, music, books, and the beauty of nature. I believe in savouring life's slower moments—whether that's cooking elaborate meals for friends, wandering through Geneva's enchanting parks and lakeside promenades, or diving...

Oh Martine! Geneva

Tartines and more

"Oh Martine! is one of those spots where anything you order ends up being good. A little birdy also tells me they have the best Cannelés in town!"

I have a theory: Every city should have at least one food place where anything you order ends up being good. Oh Martine! is one such cafe in Geneva.

A rustic decor with a "thrifted" look (mismatched chairs, cozy sofas, minimal but mindful decor), Oh Martine! is known for its tartines — a slice of toasted bread topped with fresh ingredients. Quite filling as a meal, giving you the protein and the fiber. My favorites is the Bahn Mi — spicy. All their tartines are also available in salad form.

If you aren't that hungry, there are small plates, croissant sandwiches, and even cake slices to engage your taste buds. A little birdy also tells me they have the best Cannelés in town. While I still prefer Utopia's cappuccino, the lattes and frappes here are fantastic. Golden latte and vanilla frappe are among my favorites at Oh Martine!

Boasting two locations, they are a local favorites that are buzzing with activity even during the week. Looking for somewhere cozy to catch up on emails? Head straight to Oh Martine! It can get quite noisy, though, so don't forget your headphones.
