Re: Brunch in Zurich

The refurbishment of Bohemia is very good - much nicer interior and better use of space. Reminds me almost of a Viennese-style coffee house. The food has improved as well, but the service is as iffy as ever!

Re: Brunch in Zurich

We had brunch today at Kunsthaus.
36.50, but worthy! All food was really good, variaty, quality.
Eggs, prosecco, meats, salmon, chesses, juices, sweets (couldn't try them at the end, was far tooo full ), cappuccino was great too.

We had no breakfast and for sure we'll have no dinner, so not so expensive at the end

Re: Brunch in Zurich

Hello,

I would also add the "FORUM Restaurant Bar Lounge".

I have never been there but it looks a nice pub.

Has anyone been there?

Cheers

Re: Brunch in Zurich

I absolutely love the brunch in the new bar "Hotel Rivington and Sons" - lowest floor in the Prime Tower. The cafe by it's own is absolutely stunning and i love the pancakes/hashbrowns!

Re: Brunch in Zurich

I definitely recommend Hotel Zurichberg, it has a terrace with a fantastic view and a playground fro kids, which helps a lot if you want to continue your brunch when they are playing and you can see them.
Or can get a table inside when it is bad weather, even that is wonderful as inside is also pretty nice design.
The most important thing is they have a combined brunch + lunch menu included in the price you pay. Brunch includes various things such as different types of cheese, meat, salmon, salad, various vegetables and jams, butter, choclate cream and delicious sweets (our fav is panacota), then if you still have space in your tummy, fill it with deliocous lunch menu such as meat dishes or fish or risotto or vegetables, etc..
Hmm, cant wait to go there again..

Re: Brunch in Zurich

I love the set breakfast offered by the Manora restaurant (5th floor of the Manora on Bhfstrasse).

6 CHF for a coffee, 2 dl of fresh squeezed OJ, croissant, 2 breadrolls, jam, 2 butters/honey. Offered every morning, Mo-Sa, from 9-11 AM.

I also find that Manora has a lot of seating, a nice little ambiance, terrace seating, and free wi-fi. Not quite brunch, I know, but not bad at all.

Re: Brunch in Zurich

American Chef Mike Goguen, known in Zurich for his popular Supper Clubs has opened his own restaurant Fork and Bottle near Sihl City and this Sunday he is open for the first American style Brunch. He has a great range of artisan beers and a beer garden. There are still a few places left which you can book on this link.

I haven't been yet BTW but I have tasted his food at some commercial events and it was excellent.

yes I ve been there a coulpe of times. It s good, just not buffet unfortunately. Prices are kind of on the top end I think for the 1 plate that you get and you have to pay drinks extra so in the end you pay about 30CHF for 1 plate of food and 1 drink, whereas with buffet style places you pay a similar amount for all you can eat/drink.

Re: Brunch in Zurich

My husband, and some of our friends went to try this place out:
http://www.forkandbottle.ch/

They have a great Sunday Brunch menu (pancakes, french toast, eggs benedict...). Their 'All Day' menu is also yummy.

We really liked this place! I think it will be a regular spot for us...
It has been open 7-8 weeks, and has a huge beer garden, cant wait for this in the summer!

Slightly out of the way but worth it

Oh yes, I can second Fork and Bottle. They're pretty kid's friendly too and apart from Brunch, they also have a great selection of artisanal beers.

Re: Brunch in Zurich

Just found a helpful article on the subject of brunch on a "Girlfriend Guide to Zurich": http://mygirlfriendguide.com/feature...unch-in-zurich

It gives an overview of some popular Zurich brunch spots.

Re: Brunch in Zurich

Fork and Bottle is great for breakfast and real expat hang out.
Unusal location but give it a try and you won't be disappointed.
