Luncheonette - The Lausanne Guide

We know the weather is getting a bit chilly and unpredictable, but when the sun does decide to show its face, it’s a shame to waste it during your lunch hour–which made us think about what take-away spots we frequent in Lausanne, and thus realize that we’ve never officially discussed our love for Luncheonette. We also stumbled upon the best surprise on our way home the other day: Luncheonette will [finally] be opening their location in Chailly!

Take-away can be quite limited in Lausanne–pre-made sandwiches or salads that have been sitting refrigerated for the entire morning, a greasy burger and fries, or perhaps sushi (which is actually another favorite but sometimes limited and often times expensive). Luncheonette offers fresh, hand-made-to-order wraps, salads, soups, and smoothies either to-go or to enjoy in their cozy space on Rue du Grand Saint Jean.

From the same owners of Mon Jardin Secret, Luncheonette is almost always packed (ok, yeah their space only seats about 12 people, but still!) with the lunch rush of those seeking flavorful and healthy alternatives. Their ingredients are fresh and seasonal, their options appeal to every taste, and their portions surprisingly large & filling.

Our favorite grilled wraps include “La Fresh” which is a mouth-watering combination of quinoa, feta, cucumber, tomato, green onions, mint, and coriander topped off with house dressing or pesto—and also the “California”, which is insanely tasty with grilled chicken, avocado, mixed vegetables & tomatoes, and bean sprouts. We’ve also had incredible salads with flavor /ingredient combinations we would never have come up with on our own (but try to replicate at home now!).
