BELGIAN BREWERY
With a view of the lake, in Vevey
The Square is...
A cross-town establishment with its café, its brasserie with a large veranda, its stylish terraces and bar in the heart of the old town of Vevey, with a top-notch team to welcome you.
Open from morning to evening, 7 days a week, the establishment serves everything from breakfast to dinner, including afternoon snacks and after-work drinks.

Our chef, Jérémy Bonnet, and his kitchen team are constantly searching for new, delicious combinations to satisfy your every need. Day after day, we create our own dishes using fresh, local, and seasonal ingredients.
Our selection of drinks is extensive and our teas and infusions are loose.
Le Carré aims to be industrial, warm, and friendly, like a Brussels brasserie. Almost everything here is recycled during the recent renovation of the premises.
The entire Carré team welcomes you!
Henry
The manager was born and raised in Belgium.
A must-try dish: meatballs in tomato sauce with fries.
A drink that always pleases him: Westmalle Triple. The mother of Trappist beers.
Lawrence
The co-manager was born and raised in the city of Fribourg.
A must-try dish: a green salad with a tasty dressing, paired with raw vegetables and warm goat cheese, crispy on the outside and melting on the inside.
A drink that always pleases him: homemade lemonade, presented in a pretty glass.
Marc
An outstanding handyman, this young local knows and loves to do everything. Marc, a sort of Gyro Gearloose, finds solutions to every problem that arises in a busy establishment like Le Carré.
Marc also manages Le Bardu and Le Bordu. A dish that means a lot to him: his grandmother's "papet aux porreaux." A drink that always pleases him: a good beer, especially after an intense badminton match!
Jeremy
The Chef du Carré grew up in Normandy and learned his trade in the kitchen from a very young age alongside his father.
The son of restaurateurs, Jérémy entered this world by gaining experience in France and Switzerland.
He rubs shoulders with some prestigious chefs and establishments along the way.
His determined and persevering nature pushes him to constantly surpass himself and enjoy finding new recipe ideas. With Jérémy, nothing is lost, everything is created and transformed!
Alexandra
Our bartender at BARDU joined the team this spring.
Her favorite dishes? Those of her grandmothers, one Italian, the other French!
And her French grandfather, a fine wine connoisseur, passed on the taste for this delicate beverage to his granddaughter.
Barbara
A family of five children, including a twin sister: the whole family worked in the restaurant industry. She arrived in Switzerland and gained experience in Veysonnaz and then at the Montreux Casino. She greatly appreciated her work for its universal appeal. Barbara praises the flavors of her brother-in-law's cocktails, especially his creative gin and tonics. And she always looks forward to savoring a Mafé, this Senegalese dish made with peanut butter.
He sends
Our cafe and restaurant waitress grew up in Mongolia, in the capital city of Ulaanbaatar. She studied history and sociology at university.
Manda has been working at the Carré since 2010.
She loves spending time with her family and can't live without the feeling of freedom.
His must-have dish: red meat, without sauce, accompanied by a lager.
Heretie
Heretie got into the habit of getting up at dawn six mornings out of seven to come and clean the entire establishment.
After her coffee break, she heads to the kitchen, where she performs all sorts of tasks.
Our dynamic Eritrean, who arrived in Switzerland in 2011, loves to work and make herself useful.
She is easy to get along with, has a cheerful mood and always has a smile and a kind word for every colleague.
Curious by nature, this precious employee willingly tastes all kinds of dishes, except pork, and appreciates spicy cuisine.
Cleanliness
Our dishwasher at Le Carré comes to us from Sri Lanka. He arrived in Switzerland in 2015 and has been working with our team for nine months. Sutha drinks plenty of fresh, still water and goes to the gym several times a week.
Audrey
Audrey, she needs water in summer.
For her, who has been providing the service for 20 years, the Bardu, right opposite Lake Geneva, is ideally located.
Audrey would get up in the middle of the night for a vegetarian burger and fries from Le Carré. If possible, with a glass of champagne, her home region.
Most of all
Maxime has started a lot of training and, above all, a huge amount of on-the-job learning. This young Frenchman practices his job as a waiter with particular attention to the people he meets. "Every day is different in this job; you have to constantly adapt," rejoices this red fruit lover, who quickly gets to know everyone in Vevey.
Location
A sommelier by trade, Malo grew up in the south of France. Immersed in the world of catering, the young man attended the Nîmes Hotel School, then completed a master's degree in wine and spirits commerce in Bordeaux.
His journey takes him to Lavaux, where the young man becomes passionate about the quality of the landscape.
“Wine is a tool for socialization, a complex and jovial product that brings people together.
At La Petite Cave (coming soon), the idea is to create a new living space. An accessible and friendly place,” the sommelier enthuses.
Carlos
Born in Montreal, Carlos is originally from Colombia. He grew up in Canada. Five years ago, the musician arrived in Switzerland for a change of scenery. At Le Carré, this dog and photography enthusiast handles community management and party and event planning.
