Le Frigo

Tucked behind the vibrant restaurant Bleu Nuit, Le Frigo is Geneva’s clandestine cocktail hideout: the kind of speakeasy that rewards those in the know. To enter, you don’t walk through a typical door — you open a refrigerator door. Once inside, you’re transported to a compact, blue-shaded lounge where mixology, mood, and mystique converge. The bar is run (or was co-conceived) by celebrated bartender Olivia Hairey, known for her creative flair and strong reputation in Geneva’s cocktail scene. Le Frigo emphasizes tailor-made drinks: tell the bartender your tastes, and you might be surprised by something uniquely crafted just for you. Ambiance leans toward intimate disco and retro chic. Some descriptions mention soft blue lighting, a danceable soundtrack, and a cozy layout that encourages lingering, conversation, and discovery. Because of its limited size and hidden nature, it has the feel of a whispered secret more than a crowded showpiece. Its operating hours are late: from evening into the early hours. According to Atlas Obscura, it’s open Wednesday through Saturday, from 6 p.m. until 2 a.m. According to RestaurantGuru, Le Frigo opens around 22:00 and closes 01:00 (Tue - Sat) (with extended hours Fri–Sat). In many guides, Le Frigo is described as the “secret speakeasy behind Bleu Nuit.” It’s a spot where guests extend their restaurant evening into a hidden world of cocktails, shadows, and quiet intrigue. It’s not loud; it’s not broad; it’s discreet — and that’s the point.
