Healthy vegan food

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

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).

This is a great vegan cafe/restaurant close to Zurich’s main train station. The avacado toast was sublime and lots of healthy smoothie options.

Pros: Lots of options for breakfast , Great location, Helpful staff

Roots

We had a take away tikka masala bowl which was fantastic! Perfect location as we only stayed in Zürich while changing trains.

Not bad

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.

Yummy

We had two bowls. They were delicious but not really satisfying. It’s more of a snack.
but I really loved the salad with the ponzu dressing 👌🏻

Pros: Ponzu Dressing, Quiet, Fancy interior

Cons: portions could be bigger

Great place for a quick breakfast

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!!

If 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

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!

Pros: 100% vegan

Cons: Expensive, Unwelcoming

Nice place for breakfast

Freshly prepared dishes, very tasty. Staff were very friendly and gave good advice on what to choose. Rather more expensive, but probably within reason for Zurich.

Pros: all vegan

Hearty and healthy

Really close to central station so definitely the go to place if you are passing through.

Good super salad menu, juices and breakfast options. I got a protein bowl to go and it was filling, full of good foods and tasty. Staff were super friendly, and the cafe space a serene environment for a chilled lunchtime hang.

Very delicious but not many options

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.

Delicious but expensive

Facts: Switzerland is expensive, the food is very good. Can’t give 5 starts because it was just a bowl of vegetables, as tasty as it was, that was it

Pros: Vibes, Friendly staff

Cons: Price

Yummy vegan dishes and drinks

Loved the Panaeng curry and Protein Bowl. Great coffee and tea drinks with none dairy milk. You order at the counter and they bring it to the table. Inside and outside dining. No cash payment.

Lovely Panaeng Curry

Really enjoyed the curry.. lovely little spot close to the station. Wished it had a few more main meal options even though it is more of a cafe.

Loved the porridge

I had the golden porridge to take away, the kind with peaches. It was really delicious, and a really huge portion as well!

Yummy bowls

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.

We 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

Pros: Vast selection of vegan food, Fast service, Reasonably priced
