Healthy vegan food - Edit
Roots is a popular vegan cafe, specialising in breakfast/brunch options. We got a hummus sandwich and porridge. There were also a variety of bowls, a soup, avocado toast and waffles available. Nice and not too expensive (for Zurich)

Great for lunch/snacks - Edit
Avocado toast was great. The main dieses also sounded and looked really good, are quite expensive tho (but this is Zürich after all). Only small downside was the limited selection of plant milks (only pea and oat).

Not bad - Edit
We went a few times because of the location. Got cappuccinos and croissant and parfait. Very expensive for what it is. And not as many options as I had hoped.

Great place for a quick breakfast - Edit
Staff is very nice and all the food we had was delicious. It was all served very quickly even though it was busy. They are also dog friendly, so big plus!!
Read moreIf you want to sit down and have a nice longer meal, I recommend one of the other roots restaurants. This one is more of a quick breakfast or lunch place. Will be back for sure 👌
Pros: Dog friendly , Smoothies were on point , Coffee

Pretty average - Edit
We called in here for a quick bite to eat before catching a train from nearby Zurich HB. It offers a range of breakfast & lunch items, including sandwiches, porridge, pastries & protein bowls. We tried a couple dishes - the daal bowl & the peanut curry. Both were nicely presented, but the taste was nothing special. It's super expensive for what you get, but that's Switzerland for you!

Very delicious but not many options - Edit
The curry is just amazing. Its a thai curry with a lot of fresh ingredients and toppings and the atmosphere is really nice. There could be a few more options, especially warm ones, but if you're in the right mood for one of the available meals its perfect.

Yummy bowls - Edit
Great place for a pit stop right next to the main station. The joint has both in- and outdoor seating and was quite packed when we visited during lunch hour.
Read moreWe had kvinoa tofu bowls with avokado, cashew sauce, sweet potato slices, hummus and consumed our portions with great haste. We were in a hurry so couldn't really make any coulinary points on the meal. I bet it was tasty. :P
