Montreux Jazz Cafe

About

Montreux Jazz Café is the culinary and musical extension of the legendary Montreux Jazz Festival. Founded by chef‑turn‑musician Claude Nobs, the concept fuses contemporary Swiss cuisine with live jazz, rock, pop and world‑music performances against the backdrop of Lake Geneva. Located at four flagship venues – Geneva Airport, Lausanne EPFL, Montreux proper and Pont‑Rouge – each café offers a relaxed, sophisticated atmosphere, a menu that features signature dishes such as the B.B. Burger, the Quincy‑Jones gauchelet and Ella’s Cheesecake, and a constantly rotating line‑up of celebrated musicians from Beyoncé to the BBC National Orchestra. Whether you’re a music aficionado, a foodie, a couple seeking a romantic evening, or a traveler looking for a unique cultural experience, Montreux Jazz Café delivers a memorable fusion of music, hospitality and gastronomy.
