Our large group was seated in the back area which had a cozy ambiance and interesting decor. I ordered the Strawberry Club which was pretty and refreshing! We also got a tiny complimentary bowl of rice cracker snacks to munch on, although I feel like we should have been given more since we were a huge party spanning multiple mini tables. One thing that was uncomfortable was that there were 2 people in our group that didn't want to drink and therefore did not order anything. Even when this was explained, it felt like staff was pushing them to order a drink. We came here in the late afternoon and were the only party there, so it's not like they were taking seats away from paying customers.

The space is so beautiful that it makes you want to capture it in photos to take home. The cocktail list is short but extremely inventive and considered. I'm picky about cocktails and was on a stopover after a two week holiday where I shied away from ordering them because nothing seemed worth ordering in the area I was visiting. This menu was overwhelming, though--so many creative and thought-provoking options that it was hard to choose. We each selected one and it was utterly delicious, making us wish we had time for a second! We weren't sure what to wear and were surprised to see quite a mix, from people dressed in smart casual up to elegant attire. So it's not super prescriptive in that way. Also worth noting--my partner is celiac, so we need strict gluten free food with no cross contamination. At least one of the drinks was elaborate enough (featuring lacto-fermented strawberries) that we thought it was worth double checking with the server about cross-contamination. He took it seriously and advised us confidently (as the other hotel staff had done in our hotel experience with the Widder), and my partner stayed safe. So while we didn't order food, I suspect they would have navigated the issue well.

Iconic bar in the ground floor of the namesake hotel in Zurich…read more Very distinctive decor with old wooden beams and a jillion varieties of handsome liquor bottles. Bartender was friendly although not chatty. Drinks were well prepared. Small tray of nuts, etc to snack on. Nothing in Zurich is cheap but this wasn't eye popping by their standards.

We tried Mezcal tonic and Quöllfrisch natutrüb beer. 2/3 of the glass was just Mezcal, smoky goodness. And the beer is quite refreshing with a slight herbal taste.

Its really a down to earth cocktail bar. It is not posh or so. It is very small and narrow. In summer you can sit outside. The bar lost 1 star with me because outside the chairs are chained, you can not move them around... a bit pity when you are with four or more... Have a look in the toilets, the wallpaper is funny :) The cocktails are actually a bit cheaper then somewhere else you find for sure a cocktail for less then 14 Sfr.

Although it has two levels, the bar is relatively small, so it will look and feel packed very fast. Service is mediocre, prices high - taking advantage of the location. The view disappointed me: I had expected to see more of the city. The audience reveals that this is not a really trendy place (any more): mostly young, mixed, some agglo folks. Nevertheless, this can be a nice step as you drink your way through the neighborhood. Just don't expect it will be the highlight of the night.

The bartenders are some of the best and have officially made one of my favorite drinks. I let the bartender know what I liked and that I wanted a tequila based cocktail and he knocked out out of the park. This is definitely the place where you can really trust your bartenders and get the most perfect drink in a way that you wouldn't have thought about before. They have every ingredient you could imagine... from different tinctures, infusions and fresh fruits. They even had passion fruit which is my personal favorite especially with tequila. The vibe and ambience are really warm and welcoming and super cozy! It is a smaller space which makes it that much more cozy! They also have some great food options. My husband loved the pulled pork! It's a great late night spot for sure. It's also in a very convenient location right next to the train station which is great! We are always excited to visit when we are in town.

The new shooting star in Zurich's bar scene!…read more Wow! What an amazing place! Seriously if you are looking for a great bar with a classy interior design, superior cocktails and mouth watering snacks Baltho Bar is the place to go! We went there on Friday for the first time and we fell completely in love with this bar! Our waiter was excellent, he gave us great advice on our drinks and the food (try the hummus fries!), he was super friendly, had in-depth knowledge of all the different kinds of liquors and cocktails they were serving, from origin, to taste to which drink would go well with which food choice, he was super friendly and observing and he made sure that our bowl of popcorns and our classes of cinnamon-spiced water (which you get for free) would never be empty! I can only recommend the Baltho Bar and if I could I would give it 10 points :-) Cannot wait to go back there!

I started with the onion soup, my husband had a salad, and our son had the corn soup. All three were excellent. For entrees, my husband chose the cordon blue, I had the veal with rösti, and our son had the veal stroganoff. Again, all three were excellent. Best of all, the service was simply wonderful. Not having been there before, we felt underdressed and yet they treated us with class. Why I rated it 5 stars: 1. The food was not only beautifully prepared, it was delicious. 2. Portions were ample. 3. The restaurant was clean and classy. 4. The staff was friendly and helpful. 5. The music wasn't too loud, making our table conversation easy. 6.

The drinks would fall in the category of borderline kiddie cocktails compared to those often found in the States. Needless to stay my $32 at Simplon did nothing...not a thing...in the realm of winding down. The only reaction I had was feeling poor (in the best of company and surroundings). On the upside, this is a beautiful bar. Wisely selected by my Zurich Yelp counterpart, Simon, who joined me and some Swiss Yelpers for a few cocktails on the outside benches. The waitstaff was extremely friendly and hospitable. Promptly greeted with an addictive popcorn whose flavors I couldn't seem to pinpoint (savory, heavy on the butter) - my hand kept going back for more - and more. Our table had a variety of delicious drinks including a thick and refreshing Pina Colada and Basil Smash. Despite its very lavish design and decor, Simplon Bar achieves an inviting and casual ambiance that would easily make me a regular.
