    the local ZooCafé is located outside, on the left side of the Zurich Zoological Garden. To access the ZooCafé there is therefore no need to buy a ticket, since it is located at the external entrance of the Zurich Zoological Garden. The internal furniture is made of natural wood, which makes the atmosphere truly relaxing and pleasant to stay in, spending time savoring the proposals offered and also giving pleasant attention to one's senses. We immerse ourselves in this way, pleasantly inspired to imagine what will come, stimulated by emotions and senses, preparing ourselves to go on an adventure in the guided tours inside the Zoo. The local ZooCafè is the starting point that regenerates us, creating values in harmony with man and nature.

    The food here is terrific, at least compared to any other cafeteria I have visited. The food is very good quality. It can be horrifically busy and, despite having lots of indoor seating, we have not managed to sit inside, luckily there is a large outdoor eating area next to the playground.

    Fancy cafe place at the entrance to the Zoo. It was great, quiet atmosphere just what we needed after the noisy zoo visit. The inside deco is also very relaxing and proper for the zoo theme. We will go there again.

    A noticeable cafe at the entrance of the zoo. You can also find the same food inside the zoo.

  • 5/5 Hans Z. 4 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Carl 1 year ago on Google
    Pleasant, quiet and spacious. Food not bad, coffee decent. Fairly normal price for Zurich

  • 4/5 Beat K. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Good offer (food and drinks). Often rather loud and hectic with long waiting times. But value for money is absolutely fine and the food tastes good. Outside terrace is big for in summer. (Original) Gut vom Angebot (Essen und Getränke). Häufig eher laut und hektisch mit längeren Wartezeiten. Aber Preis-Leistung ist absolut in Ordnung und das Essen schmeckt gut. Aussenterrasse ist gross für im Somme.

    (Translated by Google) Is expensive, but tasty and well-kept shop. (Original) Ist teuer, dennoch lecker und gepflegter Laden.

  • 5/5 Urs B. 4 years ago on Google
    New, modern, creative bistro café style restaurant.

  • 4/5 Daniel P. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Too loud, too hectic, and no behavior towards other guests eating. But you can not do that. It is the attitude of the visitor. But I think it's good that this offer also exists. Because that's how I stay safe with food ¾ of the day in the zoo and enjoy the animals. Until next time....... (Original) Zu laut, zu hektisch, und kein Benehmen gegenüber anderen Gästen die am essen sind. Dafür können Sie aber nichts. Es ist die Einstellung des Besuchers. Doch finde ich es gut, dass es dieses Angebot auch gibt. Denn so bleibe ich sicher mit Verpflegung ¾ des Tages im Zoo und genieße die Tiere. Bis zum nächsten Mal.......

    (Translated by Google) If you like a good coffee (not like in the Masoala hall) and also do not tolerate cow's milk, this is the right place in Zurich Zoo! (Original) Wenn man eine guten Kaffe mag ( nicht wie in der Masoala Halle ) und noch dazu keine Kuhmilch verträgt, dieser ist der richtige Ort im Zürich Zoo!

    The food is expensive and really not nice. The ambience is good and Child friendly. There are other places in the Zoo which have better food.

  • 5/5 Zenith M. 5 years ago on Google

    nice food

  • 3/5 Julia G. 6 years ago on Google
    The cafe is a nice place to stay in. However the prices are really really high even for a Zurich standard. I understand the philosophy behind saying that this is to maintain the zoo and help collect found, however it is pretty difficult to see why prices should be so high when you see that the biggest part of the zoo customer are family with little children, but only a really little part stop by, maybe also because forced to exit by there...

  • 3/5 Anubha S. 1 year ago on Google
    The zoo café is just outside the Zoo Zurich and next to the Zoo shop. It is a nice place to rest and have snacks after the zurich zoo. However we find it a bit pricey and the food was just okay. They even mixed up my order of veg with non veg :(

  • 5/5 udo s. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Nice place for a coffee after visiting the zoo (Original) Netter Ort für einen Kaffee nach dem Besuch vom Zoo

  • 3/5 David S. 5 years ago on Google
    It's a cafe in a zoo with a great playground fur kids up to around 10. Did is very average in both quality and price. A great place for people with really young families. I can't imagine why you'd go here without kids.

  • 4/5 Douglas W. 5 years ago on Google
    Lovely cafe entrance to zoo. Good for lunch and coffee.

  • 4/5 Schmizi 3 years ago on Google
    expensive but good

  • 4/5 Jenny Lidström E. 1 year ago on Google
    If you want a decent cappuccino before entering the zoo this is where you get it. The restaurants inside only have coffee machines and the coffee is horrible.

  • 3/5 Lukas H. 5 years ago on Google
    Like many concept restaurants, this one offers limited choice at high prices. there are better places to take your kids

  • 4/5 Stefan S. 5 years ago on Google
    Cosy and calm even when the rest of the zoo is crowded.

    (Translated by Google) A good solution there, something to drink even without visiting the zoo, and there is always something nice and sweet to choose from. B Derungs (Original) Gute Lösung dort was auch ohne Zoobesuch was zu trinken und es hat auch immer was feines süsses zur Auswahl. B Derungs

  • 3/5 Deady L. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Prices are steep even for Zurich. Children's portions for 7.- which consist of 20 fries and a handful of beets. Likewise astronomical margin for pastas etc. The bottom line is that we have canteen food here for the restaurant price. So you think with the annual subscription in the zoo you get much cheaper in the long run, but parking space and only a little "small food, zack Hunni away." (Original) Preise sind sogar für Zürich heftig. Kidsportionen für 7.- die aus 20 Pommes und einer Handvoll Rüben bestehen. Ebenso astronomische Marge bei Pastas etc. Unterm Strich haben wir hier Kantine Essen zum Restaurant Preis. Da denkt man mit dem Jahresabo im Zoo kommt man langfristig viel billiger aber Parkplatz und da nur etwas" kleines Essen, zack Hunni weg.

    Had Tom Ka Gai today with a friend. We both got diarrhea few hours later and felt bad. Never had this anywhere in Switzerland before and I have quite a robust stomach. Avoid this place!

  • 5/5 Angela S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The "checkout" should go a little faster, but the ladies were very friendly. The vanilla and cranberry glasses patisseries were excellent. Mmmmhh ...
