One of our favorite places to go to in Zurich is definitely the Hiltl. According to the Guiness World Records - Hiltl is the first vegetarian restaurant in the world. The company was founded in 1898 by Ambrosius Hiltl and is now run by the fourth generation of Hiltl family.
The Hiltl is a true highlight in Zurich and the oldest vegetarian restaurant in the world
The restaurant consists of two parts: the first one is a "normal" restaurant and the second part is a buffet-style self-service. The Hiltl combines class and style, in a young and cool atmosphere with vegetarian and vegan dishes. Even if you are generally used to eating meat - try out some of the dishes on the buffet that "look" like meat. They are absolutely amazing.

Babus Bakery and Coffeehouse is a great place to have a nice brunch, or cup of coffee when you are in town. The Bakery and Coffeehouse is located right in the center of town - but not directly on one of the main streets (Bahnhofstrasse). It is very cozy and the pastries they have are delicious.

This is a great place when the sun is out. The location is mainly outside and it is just 5-10 minutes on foot from the loft. Have a casual beer, chill out in the sun and enjoy a whole different part of Zurich you have probably not seen before.
