Winterthur is a city that is in my eyes very underrated. A Beautiful old town with a lot of charming local stores and a bicycle-friendly city. Winterthur is also one of the most eco-friendly cities in Switzerland
I worked for almost 4 years in Winterthur and I even lived one year in Winterthur. Because of that, I spent a lot of time looking for new places to eat lunch or dinner. And here are my favorite restaurants in Winterthur.
AL GIARDINO
Al Giardino is a very beautiful restaurant. The ambiance when eating in the garden is amazing and the food will also make your stomach happy. Al Giardino serves a lot of Mediterranean food and is also known for good fish meals and vines.
I prefer the Al Giardino in the summer when you can sit outside and enjoy the swiss weather with a good meal.
ASIAWAY
Asiaway is one of my most visited Restaurants in Winterthur. Not only because I love Asian food, but also because you get your food super fast and it is very delicious. With its location at the Archöfe City Mall next to the main train station, it is located very central and beacuse of that a very good place to have lunch if you don’t have much time. But I can recommend Asiaway for dinner as well.
TIBITS
Tibits is a very vegetarian and vegan-friendly restaurant. It serves sensational healthy food. Tibits is at a higher price point than most restaurants on this list. But you will receive a healthy and delicious meal. If you want to treat your body well, then a meal from tibits is the way to go.
DE TAPAS
This restaurant is a smaller one and has only a place for a small number of visitors at the same time. The “De Tapas” is located in the old town and welcomes you with a familiar vibe and ambiance. The Staff is very friendly as well. They are pros when it comes to Tapas, You can order so many different types of tapas. It is a pleasure to go through the menu carte and think about what to order.
GREPERY
Do you love crepes? Well, then you found your place at the Grepery. As the name already tells you The Grepery serves you a bunch of different crepes. And if I say a bunch then I mean a lot. The Grepery located in the old town is and has a wonderful ambiance. In summer you can sit outside and enjoy your crepes with a view of the busy old town. For me, Crepes are more something for dessert, but for crepes lovers I know there is no wrong time to eat crepes.
BRAUHAUS
Brauhaus is a brewery and a Restaurant. They serve a lot of delicious meals and course the perfect beer for the meal as well. The Brauhaus in Winterthur is a perfect place for a heavy meal for an affordable price.
There are so many Restaurants in Winterthur and it is impossible to visit them all. For me, the Restaurants on the list above are my favorites. Winterthur is a very cultural city and has a lot to offer. Make sure you plan enough time to visit Winterthur to see most of it.
