If you've been to Budapest and know what a Ruin Pub is, then you'll get the analogy here. This is a huge pub on three floors which literally sweats personality: it has an old Rock n' Roll atmosphere, their own brew beer for 5 CHF, and sweet 60's music in the background. Important football matches are projected in the top floor.

For its good electronic music and its very underground vibe. Zukunft (called Zuki amongst locals) is always packed and you're always sure to have a good time if you go there. Finding its entrance will be tricky, but once you do, get in.

This very small posh café is where the creative bankers' scene of Zurich holds their "meetings". They'll have a coffee, a drink and a chat. Oh and they'll want to be seen. Come in the early afternoon on a Friday and you'll see beautiful people taking a sip of their cocktail.

The Rio Bar is located very close to the shopping regions Bahnhofstrasse and Europaallee as well as the main station. This proximity to the public transport makes it a great location to meet friends who are passing through Zurich, or to gather for a last drink after a weekend trip out of town. It has a nice Terrasse located next to it.

Ms. Gerold's Garden is where locals meet for an unpretentious beer after work or a Sunday brunch, meeting friends (only in summer, from April to October). Everyone will be there anyways, so you can even come alone.

During the day this is a women only river bath. But at nights when the lights go on it is open for everybody - as long as you're ready to take your shoes off! To protect the historic wooden planks all guests are asked to be barefoot. On several nights per week (check the website) there are DJs and other music events and the atmosphere is unique.

You don't go there if you only want to have a beer or a glass of wine. You go there for their delicious, creative cocktails and the fancy yet classy bar atmosphere and the hip crowd. It's located in a young and trendy area and you've got a selection of restaurants around it so it's definitely a great place to start or end an evening.

BarMünster has a classy atmosphere, with jazzy music in the background, waiters in suits and nice glasses for your drink. But it still welcomes a mixed crowd, from youngsters beginning their night out to older people staying there the whole night. Plus, the waiters are super nice.

This place makes you feel like a lost sailor, a feeling that needs to be counteracted by drinking beer, watching other sailors and thinking about getting a tattoo. Endorphin levels are high since there's usually some serious table football going on.

I used to live very close by and called it my "village" because you can get everything you need here: all kinds of shops and services, a gym, dentist, restaurants, hotel, cinema, daycare, club even a "church" (prayer room open to all faiths). There are also seasonal activities on the square like a beach bar in Summer or a fondue hut in Winter.

Brick Bar has some of the best Cocktails in Zurich. They change the menue regularly apart from some signature cocktails. Staff is very helpful if you need help with choosing a cocktail. Cocktails are made with love but still at a ok price for Zurich. Live Music once a week during winter is also very nice.

In-between a lounge and a bar, Milch Bar is a cozy, little place near the lake which I love to visit all year. During the weekends a DJ lubes the sociality of the bar goers with some techno music. Entry is completely free and drinks are more than reasonably cheap.
