10. place gets Kafi Dihei

Kafi Dihei
We give 9.2/10!. This place was visited and rated 1141-times

What our travelers says:

2 years ago Maria A.described this experience as follows:

Great place for brunch in Zurich. We were lucky because we found a table in the terrace for 6 pax when we arrived but us salt is very crowded so go with time. The staff very kind and profesional. The food big portions/ good quality price. Fully recommend the place and I will be back


2 years ago Ag Juchtwrote only this for this place:

We had to queue for about 10 minutes, which was okay. They do not take reservations. We went for brunch. The place was packed inside. Loads of crying children and barely space for yourself. They were sitting strangers with one another at the same tables, which led to decreased privacy. We waited for 20 minutes for the waitress to approach us. We didn’t even get water all this time. Only then she asked if we would like English menus. We managed with German, but I found it ridiculous. The food was really good though. I didn’t feel relaxed when eating due to overcrowding, but I cannot complain about the dishes they served. The decor inside is also super cosy and nice. I really wish they would just stop trying to squeeze so many people in there. The experience would be much better then.


2 years ago Yooney Leewhat can I say about this place?

The best coffee and everything was great! I asked for iced coffee and they made Shakerato. Before the sip, the rich scent of coffee flowed into me and smooth crema swirled around my tongue. I could feel they use the fresh coffee beans. Orange juice was also freshly squeezed and perfectly sweet. Bruches were of course good and I really liked the combination of raspberry and cream and pancake! Definitely want to revisit.


2 years ago Niki G- why does he think this place is on the list?

Best Brunch ever! We were a group of 4 and super satisfied by the food and the whole ambiente incl. friendly staff. The pancakes are absolutely delicious and in general you can taste the fresh ingridients. We will come back for sure.


2 years ago Ali Gorjiwrote only this for this place:

The atmosphere is really nice. The pancakes were good but a bit underwhelming imo. Staff are mixed; some very attentive and some could be more welcoming.

9. place gets Milchbar - das Gaumenfreudenhaus

Milchbar - das Gaumenfreudenhaus
Numerically, he has the 8.2/10!. This place was visited and rated 1191-times

What our travelers says:

2 years ago Patrick Trisna: it is necessary to add to this place:

I had the steak sandwich. Though flavours were ok, the chef/cook did not consider the eating experience of the guest. The steak was not sliced, which made it an extremely and embarrassingly messy eating experience. Had to eat it with a fork and knife. Not very thoughtful. Service is also slow.


2 years ago onur’s guidewrote only this about this place:

There is nice atmosphere for coffee. Price for americano : 6 CHF Latte : 7 CHF You can try for coffee to rest.


2 years ago Robin: it is necessary to add to this place:

The restaurant is really nice and during the week not that busy. On Saturday and Sunday it is so crowded that the quality is not as good as during the week. The service on the other hand was never outstanding, for the prices you pay you could expect a better service, I mean CHF 10.- for an orange juice…. I would recommend the eggs benedict with avocado toast and salmon but also the scrambled eggs with feta was really nice.


2 years ago Ali Gorji- why does he think this place is on the list?

We went for a Saturday brunch for the first time. The location is really good, and the food is enjoyable. The service, however, is, well, miserable! Very unfriendly staff, which is a pity, as it ruins the rest.


2 years ago Shai Lachmanovichhow did he rate it?

Went on a Monday evening, the place was full but the garden tables are separate enough so it didn't feel too crowded. Service was ok, nothing special about it. Drinks were great and the food was tasty, though the steak in the steak sandwich was over cooked (awesome sauce though).


8. place belongs to Museum Rietberg

Museum Rietberg
Numerically, he has the 9.4/10!. This place was visited and rated 1196-times

What our travelers says:

2 years ago Ruchika: it is necessary to add to this place:

A charming museum with interesting global exhibitions. The lady at the gift store and ticket office is the best thing about the museum. She is inviting and so cheerful and knowledgable. The gift shop is EXTRAORDINARY. Currently there are amazing, amazing items from Japan. It is the best curated museum gift store in Zurich for sure! I did not find the Kimono exhibition as exceptional as it could have been but that could be due to the fact that I lived in Japan and have seen them in real life.


2 years ago Єлизавета Пухevaluates this place as follows:

My favorite museum in Zürich! It’s very interesting and has a lot of exhibits to see. I was amazed by exhibitions from Asian countries and Buddhas statues, very relaxing place. Has a cafe and park on its territory. Will definitely come back.


1 year ago James Diedrick: it is necessary to add to this place:

Great Pathways of Art tour of the permanent collection, including careful critiques of acquisition and provenance. Also: excellent cafe!


1 year ago Patrick Kronemansaid the following about this gem:

Great museum in a beautiful building with a fine collection of African, Asian and Mesoamerican art.


1 year ago C Finog: it is necessary to add to this place:

Got my annual membership. Totally worth it. Great collection, interesting exhibitions.

1 year ago Anda Hoxhawrote only this for this place:

Great drinks, cozy atmosphere, friendly service!


1 year ago Sehaj Bhatiawrote only this about this place:

How hard is it to make coffee when you’re a coffee company at your core. A simple latte order just tastes like plain milk with no coffee taste whatsoever. The restrooms in the cafe were also taped off.


2 years ago Amjad Farooqdescribed this experience as follows:

Very nicely located in the centre of Zürich.


3 years ago Khaled Miah- why does he think this place is on the list?

Lovely little Starbucks. Fantastic customer service. Very expensive compared to London UK.

If you want good quality coffee then starbucks is your happy place! They serve fresh and heavenly coffee perfect thing to start your day with. Recommended!

6. place - Café des Amis

Café des Amis
We rate the place at 8.6/10!. This place was visited and rated 1250-times

What our travelers says:

1 year ago G Bevaluates this place as follows:

Had brunch and it was mostly delicious! Croissants could have been slightly more fresh and the goat cheese crepe wasn’t quite to my taste. I adore goat cheese in all form, but the taste was overpowering and a bit pungent/bitter. It could have been perfect with a slightly different cheese. The staff however were lovely and the atmosphere was perfect for a cosy brunch on a cold day!


1 year ago Mario Caruso: it is necessary to add to this place:

Lovely cozy brunch. Super friendly and attentive staff. Place is packed so if you want to be sure then make a reservation for brunch. Outside seating available. Very nice place with quality dishes and drinks. Great wine selection.


2 years ago Brandon Foltzexplained best how he liked it:

I stopped by for a late breakfast on an October Saturday around 11:00 a.m. As you would expect it was pretty busy. The seating inside is a bit limited and cramped however, if the outside seating is fully open then there is plenty of room. Due to how busy it was the service was a little slow but not that bad. The food was incredibly delicious so it was worth waiting for. The restrooms were also very nice and clean. Since I am a solo traveler, I was able to sit at the end of a table that already had another group of three. So if you are eating with a group you might want to call ahead to see if you can get a reservation depending on the time of day. I had the croissant with scrambled egg, bacon, arugula and cheese. And a glass of orange juice. My total bill was about 20 Swiss francs which I think is reasonable.


1 year ago Lavanya khamitkar- why does he think this place is on the list?

Beautiful place with long lines for lunch. I had croissant which could have been a little fresh and moist. The flavours weren’t top notch but wouldn’t recommend it for quick lunch. The order takes quite a while to arrive and takes up the entire slot. So so food but with great ambience Could recommend if you are meeting your friends as you get huge time before your food arrives


2 years ago Nora Kellywrote only this about this place:

An absolute gem of a place. It’s like sitting in a well cared for garden with fantastic food and service. The croissant with eggs, bacon, and arugula was delicious with both the eggs and bacon perfectly cooked.


5. place definitely deserves McDonald’s

McDonald’s
We give 7/10!. This place was visited and rated 1327-times

What our travelers says:

1 year ago Tanja Dokicexplained best how he liked it:

We went there last night around midnight and the temperature outside was below zero. The door of the McDonald's kept remaining open because people would stand in front of it, but mostly because some of the screens for the orders are placed right below the sensors that open the doors. So, when people stood there to place their orders, the door kept staying open. Needless to say that it was extremely cold inside the restaurant and those poor workers were freezing. I can't imagine being at their place for the entirety of their shifts. This is not how you take care of your workers!


2 years ago Michelle Sweenysaid the following about this gem:

We are Americans and this is very authentic. It's exactly like McDonald's is in America when it comes to taste and quality: not that great.... but here in Switzerland the food was slightly better quality than we are used to. The bun on my Big Mac was round and shiny, the meat had little specs of onion, the sauce didn't get all over my hands, and my sandwich didn't fall apart or get squishy. So it was superior to an American Big Mac!! It is McDonald's!!! it's not healthy, it's not good for you, it kind of leaves a heavy feeling in the bottom of your stomach and everything is overly filling and salty. It is why Americans are so unhealthy. Watch the documentary Super Size Me if you want to know all about this restaurant and the nutritional problems it has caused people in my country. There is also a movie about McDonald's and the original chain of restaurants called the Founder. If you want to taste American food, this is fun to try, but it is not good food and it's not supposed to be.


2 years ago Stefano Berra- in short, this experience can be described as follows:

I went in to eat. As usual, I go to the bathroom to wash my hands and already at the entrance to the bathroom the smell of urine was really extreme. then on leaving all the tables were dirty and sticky so I went away because I imagine what the working method inside the kitchen could be like. madness extremely discouraged !


2 years ago Currie Prescottwrote only this about this place:

I've been here about 5 times now, but I do not know why I return for such terrible service and food. The fries are always cold and the service is sooo slow! I was there today for a simple order and I had to wait 15 minutes for a Cheese burger "Royal" and fries. When I entered there were only 5 people waiting. The help and the system they work with are overwhelmed!! McDonald's should revamp what they are doing!!!


1 year ago Paul Schefflerwhat can I say about this place?

EDIT: Since this place systematically delivers half the food for full price, I will start a tally list here for every time it happens. So far, checking my Uber refund emails, we are at *14* times: IIIII IIIII IIII If being bad at your job was an olympic discipline, you guys should represent Switzerland :) Can you _please_ double check Uber Eats orders going out are actually complete? Having to request a refund about every third time and not having food loses its charm quickly...


4. place - Metropol

Metropol
We give 8.6/10!. This place was visited and rated 1365-times

What our travelers says:

2 years ago jean philippe lechat- why does he think this place is on the list?

Ordered the Salmon club sandwich. Got water from the tab. Excellent club sandwich with fresh ingredients. 2 types of salmon. One slice of smoked raw salmon and one slice of cooked salmon. Great quality and quantity. Instead of the serving it with Crips it would have been nicer with French fries. Overall nice experience. Service was very quick!


2 years ago Ruchikaexplained best how he liked it:

Grandeur and glamor at your fingertips, this gorgeous place is magnificent, especially if you are lucky enough to sit below the arches outside. I love it for breakfast, especially the Swiss one, and at lunch the Japanese inspired menu is great value only on weekdays. The quality is great as is the service. However, on the weekends the lunch offer is not given and there is a difference in the experience when you are seated outside vs. inside for breakfast.


2 years ago Bea Meowwhat can I say about this place?

The staff struggled to find our booking despite the fact we have reserved a few days in advance. We got a lousy table that was so wobbly, we had to ask to have it stabilised or risk our drinks being spilled. It took nearly 20 mins for a coca-cola to arrive. The food was disappointing, the sushi platter was presented nicely but the rice was very overcooked, it was meh. The service was good but the overall atmosphere was of a train station waiting hall. And all this for chf200. We had an unpleasant experience and we feel so annoyed. Very very disappointed we chose to celebrate our wedding anniversary here.


2 years ago Goran Jerićdescribed this experience as follows:

We came at thuesday on 8 courses dinner! That was amazing night for us and all staff help in that… Our waiter mr. Ashraf was very friendly but also very attentive and professional( also want to thank you one more time for everything). The chef coming 2 times to our table , first one to explain to my wife how he doing that taste( thanks for that) and second with the main course. And dinner … don’t know what to say , perfect, perfect, perfect… flavors, decoration, taste, wine …. Best dinner for us… that was not our first visit , but also for sure is not the last … can’t wait to see you again ….

What our travelers says:

2 years ago Avantika: it is necessary to add to this place:

This McDonald's was far more spacious and maintenance was too good. As we had vegetarian burgers 🍔 and hot chocolate as a brunch 😋 we loved the Atmosphere very much. I loved the Ambience here.


2 years ago Unitedcarelink Lvwrote only this about this place:

The staff here is incredibly friendly and welcoming. They provide fast and efficient service, ensuring that you have a pleasant experience. Not only is the interior of the restaurant clean and well-maintained, but the toilets are also spotless. I recently tried their new veggie plant burger, and I must say, it was absolutely delicious! Without a doubt, this is the best McDonald's in Zurich.


2 years ago Simran Lalwaniwrote only this about this place:

The staff was polite and timely delivered food at our table. We ordered the home style fried chicken honey mustard burger meal. Tastes amazing.


2 years ago Bunny Whitesaid the following about this gem:

The young lady who took our order was super kind and polite. We got our food fast. The price is very average. I was not happy with the double cheeseburger I got. It was not assembled correctly and tasted bad.


2 years ago Manuel Poppwhat can I say about this place?

Who eats this stuff? It was simply disgusting. Some sticky burgers wraped in a lot of garbage. When there are no other options, you might think "it cannot be as bad as some people say" but turns out: it is. Next time rather go hungry than potentially poisoned by ingesting this whatever it is they make their products out of. Service was quick.


2. place belongs to Markthalle

Markthalle

Wonderful location with nice, well lit patio seating. Fantastic service and the food was amazing. Try the bone marrow and the swedish meatballs!! The mussles are also a masterpiece with a hint of spice but not too spicy!


2 years ago Mavicodesaid the following about this gem:

Back after many years at Markthalle and I am very happy about it. Very friendly staff and exceptional food. Both the bone marrow and the deer entrecôte dishes were fantastic! Moules et frites is a must try.


1 year ago Gerardo G.E.- why does he think this place is on the list?

Great delicatessn and local market. Lots of options and high quality products


2 years ago Diderot DeBrittodescribed this experience as follows:

Markthalle restaurant is inside of the Markthalle im Viadukt, a gourmet market with products not for all... Anyway, the restaurant has a great service and plenty of options in the menu. Concerning the atmosphere, I'd like to be on the outdoor table, but as there were smokers nearby I had to choose one inside the market


2 years ago Staffandescribed this experience as follows:

Completely captivated by this food market full of love for its products. What you don't find here among delicacies is not worth looking for.


1. place gets Tibits

Tibits

What our travelers says:

2 years ago PHG !what can I say about this place?

I am not vegetarian and enjoyed this place. The food was diverse and chouce plentiful. It was easy to discover what you wanted easy to pay, great to ensure there is no wasye as you oay for the weight of your food. The decision around your beverage was easy as it was done after you choose your meal so you can easily pair the wine with the meal choice. The staff were great, pleasant, and attentive to the customers. I saw one helping an older couple with their plates from their seats. It was above and beyond and just showed the fabulous service they give. The area was clean the tables basic but there were plenty of seats to choose where to sit. I enjoyed this. The food was great, I didn't really have a full choice for the sweets (desserts) but apart from that I couldn't fault it. It was good.


1 year ago Gavin Stonesaid the following about this gem:

Such a brilliant idea. Select the food salad-bar style from a wide variety of choices and pay for the weight of what you have chosen. As to be expected, Zurich prices, so rather expensive but good value compared to simply having to pick a meal from a menu.


2 years ago Morris 3wrote only this about this place:

Lots of delicious vegetarian and vegetarian options. I really like the desserts as well. Up until my visit to Tibits, I've never had or heard of a cashew cheesecake. Luckily I tried it! It was really tasty!


2 years ago Adi Shrivastava- why does he think this place is on the list?

This is one of my favorite vegetarian restaurants in the world. I am very demanding about my food balancing health, cleanliness and taste. This place checked all three boxes.


2 years ago Justwrote only this about this place:

About the service. Staff looks quite sad and also I had to ask a few times until they reacted and noticed me. Food. Some pineapple pieces were very bad, beginning to ferment if I can describe it so. The mango mousse is a bit strange, not really tasty. Not everything looks fresh. Also to mention. The toilet is extremely small and uncomfortable, the door opens inward so you need to do some really weird actions to close it. And it's also quite dirty and smells bad. I'm quite disappointed by this place. I've had a way better experience with Tibits in other cities.
