The best bars in Zurich, Switzerland...


1 ~ OLD CROW

Possibly our favourite bar in the whole of Europe, this incredibly friendly backstreet bar offers a choice of more than 1,200 rare spirits, all available by the glass, , with a special focus on whiskies, bourbons and ryes from the personal collection of owner barkeepers Markus Blattner and Jvan Paszti. Apart from classic cocktails prepared by the two multi-award winners, they also specialise in serving some rare and forgotten mixtures alongside their own creations. We can't think of anywhere else in the world where you can enjoy a dram of 1964 Final Edition Bowmore Black Label 31 year old, or a 1963 Glen Grant 50 year old. There's a huge rum collection featuring the 50 year old Appleton Estate Jamaica Independence edition whilst gin fans can sample the mega rare 1990s plastic bottle Tanquery Malacca and the much sought after Monkey 47 Distillers Cuts 2011, alongside many others. Swiss beers and Swiss wines are joined by a large Champagne collection and one of the best soft drink lists in Switzerland
