Frau Gerolds Garten - A sprial sauage and toasted veggie with an ice tea special. - Barbeque Near Me - Zürich, ZH

Good food in an interesting environment. Most of the year, Frau Gerolds in an outdoor beer garden. However, rather than being one big area with lots of picnic tables, there are lots of smaller seating areas with comfortable seats. However, our visit was in February. During this time of the year, there is a large circular building with indoor seating. Great place to eat and socialize over fondue and classic Swiss food. Local beers are available. I had the country bratwurst. The vegetables were very good. We were seated at a communal table. Our server spoke english so ordering was very easy. read more

Frau Gerolds Garten - Country bratwurst - Barbeque Near Me - Zürich, ZH

Totally different, totally cool - and an oasis of a different world of peace in midst of the city. Outdoors, nested between little but wild garden parcels, simple tables and benches and sitting opportunities are the basis for an escape from a hectic life. But even better is the fact that the food (we took a Gerolds garden bowl and a fitness bowl, followed by amazing and unconventional ice cream) was simply put wonderful. Patrons flock in and the wide area can get quite packed but not stressed! read more

This was a cool experience. I can't comment on the food much, most of it was closed but the gelato was great and reasonably priced. The beer was also good and fun to sit outside. I would return! read more

Good prices for Switzerland, great food and atmosphere. Kitchen wasn't open yet but grill was, so I had a sausage with potato salad and a beer. Everything was surprisingly good! Very relaxed atmosphere - You go to counter to order food and than bring it to wherever you can find a spot. Plenty of seating all around. The neighborhood is worth exploring too - lots of neat shops and bars. read more

Cool looking with a great vibe. Delicious food with good choices and drinks. The cashier can get a little flustered so make sure to go over your order. read more

This place is so cute!! We walked by on our way into the city center and stopped to check it out. We got raclette to share, and it was so delicious. It was cold out so some hot cheese and potatoes really hit the spot. We intended to stop back again on our way out but we took a detour (aka got lost) and then decided we were too tired for the extra stop. read more

This place is super cute. We happened to end up here on a rainy evening and saw the most amazing rainbows! We hung out and had a beer and it was very enjoyable. Definitely worth a visit. read more

Seems like THE place that locals go. Huge outdoor space with shops, gelato, bars and food. It was very busy on a thursday night. Really surprised there's enough seating, or maybe there isn't, you gotta search, but there's lots of nooks and crannies. read more

This place is very fun and welcoming for anyone. We had a very easy time finding what we wanted to eat and drink. Seating can be a bit of a waiting game, but it was worth the wait read more

I really like the vibe this place gives off. During warmer months, they have outside seating with a fire pit for you to enjoy a cold beverage and relax. Since it was in the 30's and raining, we sat inside. They have these long wooden benches/tables that remind me of medieval times. Our server was awesome and very accommodating. Just a word or warning, if there are 3 people planning on sharing the fondue, just order for 2 since they give you a lot of cheese and unlimited bread. We ended up having to throw away most of the cheese. The fondue that I ordered had a bitterness to it. It probably had to do with the wine or alcohol they put in there. It was a bit off-putting and that's probably why we didn't finish our pot. read more

Absolutely loved this place. Such a fun place to just hangout and chill. Loved the ambiance and decor of the whole place. We tried a vegetarian pasta dish and it was good. Wish the ramen food truck had been open when we went. read more

Probably my first and last time having fondue ever again! This was by far the worst meal I had in all of Switzerland. Our local Swiss friends brought us here, raved about this place and about how hard it is to get a reservation here, and how a meal like this can't get more Swiss. The night we came, truffle fondue was the pre fixe available so we opted for that and the china fondue... neither of which was good. :c . I was so disappointed. I could barely taste the truffle in the cheese. Rather, all I could really taste, was the immense, overpowering taste of alcohol/wine. Our Swiss friends told us that the proper way to eat was to only have bread, plenty of black pepper on your plate ready, and cheese. Use the specific utensil for fondue, fork it into bread, dip into cheese, followed by a dip into black pepper. Normally, I love black pepper, but this just fortified the strong taste of alcohol! I could not fathom eating this. To give this place a second attempt, we also had the china fondue, which we should've known would've been disappointing anyways coming from an ethnic background where this is very normal to have. It was just miscellaneous cuts of meat that you can dip in salted water, followed by a choice of ketchup and various aiolis to dip your meat in. It was so bizarre. Honestly, the best thing I had here and could stomach was the fries. While I'm all for trying local foods and getting the most local experience, this was such a disappointment. Maybe I just don't have the palette to appreciate Swiss fondue, but this is definitely somewhere I would not come again. Once is enough. For those of you visiting, don't get me wrong - the place is still very fun for all your photography needs. The restaurant inside gives a very dine-in-a-Cirque-du-Soleil kinda feel and outside, great to hang out at when it's warmer in the summer time. Food though, hard pass for me. read more

This is an open seating area with several healthy food options in a casual ambiance. Service is pretty prompt when we went, and there at lots of food and drink options. We just went for beer and a bratwurst, which was excellent. Notably, there is a little gelato place that serves amazing gelato for dessert, which we really liked. The coffee gelato is some of the best I've had. Highly recommend this place! read more

Frau Gerolds Garten - Great dark beer - Barbeque Near Me - Zürich, ZH

This is a big Bier garten. A big open area with lots of picnic tables surrounded by cargo containers. Food is pretty limited to different types of sausage and salad. But, they have a lot of beer. Most people come here for the beer. My group had different types of sausage and they were all good. Our group was way above the mean of the average age of the clientele but we enjoyed it. Is it great? No. Is it a fun place to kick back and people watch? Yes! Go here because it's just a cool place and enjoy the vibe, not for a gourmet meal. read more

It a vibe! Come out here for a cold chill beer and enjoy the scenery! Like a playground for adults. read more

Going through my zurich pics brought nostalgia for this place. Funny story. A sales associate who was also a local university student recommended this place for happy hour. The restaurant is situated inside a tent and inside are very artsy murals. I checked in at 11:30, but they still served us. Ivan our waiter was super amiable and was able to serve us cured meats and excellent beer. Really chill vibes all around read more

Outdoor beer garden = vibes Super fun place to hangout after a long day off doing touristy things or work. The place was packed with fun chill vibes. Feeling food? Go upstairs and order your food and you will be given a buzzer where you pick up your food downstairs. As far as I could tell there was only one 'restaurant' to order food, not multiple vendors. If you're feeling a beer or two order that downstairs. If you have a group of 2-4 I would highly recommend the sharing is caring plate. It includes pulled pork, bbq short ribs, different brats, fried cheese, cole slaw, veggies, and some other meats. It's definitely a great way to try a bunch of things! Everything was delicious! There is a bucket of bread you could grab as you pick up your food as a great filler! Don't forget on your way out to grab some gelato near the entrance. Some of the best gelato in Zurich! Would highly recommend stopping by Frau Gerolds Garten! read more

Fantastic lively place in Zurich where all the locals gather! Try it if you come here.

Beer Garden. This place was so fun. Very different from the typical Zurich scene. They have a walk up bar surrounded by a fun patio with a fun atmosphere. Everyone here is jusr kind of hanging our with no sense of time. Know what I mean? Great beer options, the chicken barbecue was amazing. They know what their doing. Great spot if you're in a beer garden mood, bring a large group of you want. read more

This is my favorite place in Zurich to hang out. It's in the middle of very cool boutiques, right next to the famous Freitag building, and about a 5 minute walk from the Prime Tower. There are picnic tables everywhere, and about half are under a large, colorful tent. It's not too hard to find seating, but the place is usually very busy after work. I love the feel of it. There are trees all over, nifty and different styled chairs, and benches, and it's just got a really cool, chill vibe. It reminds me a lot of Austin, actually. And the food is also very very good. They usually have two salad options, two pasta options, two meat options, and some sausage options. I've had two salads here and both were very delicious. This is where I discovered that ham and melon compliment each other like pb&j! The ham and melon salad was so fresh, but filling, and the other salad was totally different, with heart of palm, oranges, and dried tomato. Both were very yummy. They also offered a gazpacho which tasted similar to a berry smoothie, but it was also yummy. The next time I came I tried a pasta with bratwurst. It was less unique, but still well flavored and some good comfort food. The Wiedikoner sausage with salad was definitely delicious and probably one of my favorite meals I've had here. If you haven't been here, you definitely have to check it out! read more

As an American just tromping through Europe, I was not expecting such a hipster vibe in Zurich --- and this spot is holding down the hipster fort and is slinging out good food, beer, and vibes. Stumbled upon this gem after getting off the Hardbruke train stop. It's a large open space that has a wonderful garden, a rooftop deck, and a tented area in case you want to get out of the sun. To order both food and drink go straight to the bar area. The menus are completely in German, however the lovely bartender busted out perfect English and stepped me through the food menu. They were offering four sausages that day as well as potato salad and regular salad. I opted for the veal sausage with potato salad and got a large bottle of beer based on her recommendation (Bugel). All of it cost me 24 Francs, which is quite frankly a steal in these parts. I picked up my food at the grill and also got a free piece of bread (A lovely pile is just sitting out there for you to take). The food was excellent --- the veal was savory and hearty, the potato salad well seasoned with a curry like essence, and the beer divine. I'd recommend coming here with a big group and just chilling out on an afternoon (wasn't too busy when I was there). I have walked by on a few occasions when the spot was jam packed in the evening --- can imagine logistics being a bit tougher then! read more

I could hang around here all day !! It is by far the coolest place in Zurich. It is an outside bar close to Hardbrucke. It is situated behind the Freitag flagship store. The architecture is based on the Freitag store. It is all pilled up containers. And the bar is also in a container. You can also go up and there you have an industrial view over the tracks. You can eat small things there but it is not a big choice. Nice to have a snack. Staff is funny and friendly. Pay attention at weekend and afterwork it gets really really crowded. There are also a few hipster stores at the garten. Tip: They serve Belgian Beer: "Grimbergen" read more

First, I'd just like to point out that I probably was not cool enough to be at this restaurant, but I really enjoyed dinner there anywhere. Made of old shipping containers, this complex has boho clothing boutiques, a beer garden, an artisanal gin pop up and a roof top restaurant. We went to dinner with ex pat friends and their young son. I had an aperol spritz and then we had some fire pit pizza for dinner. I think we actually went during the European version of happy hour, since the food menu was limited compared to what was listed on their website, but either way we had a lot of fun basking in the sunset on a rooftop. Definitely a good place for Instagram photos, it was a very fun experience. read more

I fully expected this place to be too cool for school but it has easily become one of my fave places to hang out in Zurich. In summer it is a garden where you can have a couple of beers, have some bbq whilst chilling with friends. In winter it turns into some magical cabin where you can indulge in the ultimate Swiss food: fondue. Both season have their own charm and Frau Gerolds Garten does both very well. It always feels relaxed but hip and pretty at the same time. But most importantly the food is good! I have a soft spot for the less traditional bacon and beer fondue but the other choices are great as well. In addition, for Zurich standards this is reasonably priced for what you get. I would say the only negative is that the place is becoming a victim of it's own success: it is very difficult to find a spot without reservation. I tried booking for a fondue night for two and realized that they were fully booked for the complete month of December (while I tried booking in November). However, I took my chance and walked in and got a spot, yay! Definitely recommended if you want to try Swiss food but prefer a hip relaxed environment over a stiff traditional establishment in the old town. read more

Great service, food and atmosphere. We got very lucky to get a table without a booking. Would recommend getting there right on opening time (6pm) if you want to get a table. The chilli fondue is not too spicy. Worth the visit. read more

Pretty chill spot in a rando spot of Zurich (I think). Although we missed out on what looks like some pretty solid eats, the ability to grab a seat, order up a few drinks and just relax for a bit was pretty welcoming after a long day of walking the city. There is shade if you need it and plenty of seating in an outdoor garden-style atmosphere. We opted to sit in an upper area, which had it's own bar and overlooked the train station and surf academy next door (check this out). After a few Aperol spritz in the shade and a tour of the small shops by the entrance and we were on our way. Nice little stop! read more

Oh man. Do I hate writing a review of this place? Yes. Do I hate it because it's my favorite, not-so-overrun-still-a-little-indie hang-out spot in the city and I don't want people to know about it? Hell, yes! But here goes: I love Frau Gerold in the summer time when they serve cooling drinks right in the small urban garden and I love what they do with the place once it is winter and the beautiful chapiteau is raised behind the Freitag tower. They serve fondue (both cheese and "chinois") and it is completely transformed from the cool, laid-back summer Frau Gerold into a cozy, cottage-feel gourmet restaurant. And the best thing? Still considering that this is Zurich, you get all that bang for very little buck. read more

Came here when I was in Zurich for a business trip because I really wanted to take my cousin (who visited from Poland) to get some amazing Swiss fondue. This place did not disappoint - we came on a Friday night and the place was bustling and busy. The atmosphere, service and most importantly the food was so great. We ordered a bottle of wine, fondue and dessert to split. read more
