Collab Zürich Zurich
Ethical creators shop
Marie-Lou from Zurich
To bring back a material memory from Zürich, you can go to one of the souvenir shops in the station, or go to Collab Zürich to support ethical and sustainable businesses.
The concept of the store is to display all sorts of creator work in one place. Any brand can ask for a partnership but Collab Zürich selects the brands one by one, considering their social, ecological, and local impact. Not all brands display the three criteria but most do. You can find more precise information about all the brands on their website. With their system, they manage to gather a large number of small brands to offer you a diverse range of products, featuring clothes, shoes, jewelry, tableware… Definitely many more than what you could find in a souvenir shop!
Most of the products are not as affordable as the ones one could find in the fast fashion industry but it is the fair prices for more ethical products. For several brands, you can also find a page on the product’s worth to know more about the manufacturing process. So you have everything in your hands to buy what seems good to you! Besides all this, the store is also very pleasant to spend time in, with wood furniture, concrete floor, and pastel colours.

Kunsthaus
Art lover's must
Enjoy the incredibly aesthetic brutalist open space with high ceilings, soft concrete, and brass-finished elements. To complete the experience, take a seat in their art deco-inspired bar.

Dolder Grand
Nature and/or Luxury in the Skies
For an active getaway, follow one of the tens of hiking paths to wander in the forest, or navigate to Loorenkopf for an overview of the whole city with the Alps in the background.

To reach the spot, navigate by public transport to the tram stop Römerhof and jump on a Dolderbahn funicular. From the final stop at Dolder Grand, head to the forest and follow the signs to the Loorenkopf.

Weisses Kreuz
Local food, local people
"Weisses Kreuz" in Zurich isn't fancy - it's probably what some people would call an 'old man's pub', but what other pub has a 'Stammtisch' for regulars?

Zufreeden
Gluten free heaven
I particularly like the variety of products they offer, which can make life a lot easier if you are gluten-free and they also have several vegan options.

Pijnenburg
Heureka sculpture
A nonsensical Tinguely machine
It was made out of scrap metal and everyday objects and presents a nonsensical machine, a complex configuration of tubes, wheels, and motors.

Stadtgärtnerei
A lush spot in the city
The outside area is also worth a visit. You'll find a beautiful collection of palms and agave in a sandy environment crossed by a water basin with fishes.

Old Crow
The art of the Spirit
The "Old Crow" in Zurich is definitely a special kind of bar. Whiskey lovers beware: with over 1,000 bottles, you might stay here longer than expected...
