8 Best Restaurants Near Zurich Main Station

NoGrainZone on Brunngasse specialises in fully gluten-free sandwiches and treats, making it a particularly useful stop for visitors seeking an easy meal near Zurich’s main station. Signature options include OG Crispy Chicken, TomMoz Rebell and Tofu Rosso.

The compact take-away concept suits a short city break or a quick meal between trains.

Uniturm occupies a distinctive position in Zurich’s university tower, with views across the city and a setting that feels more special than a standard daytime restaurant. It is open Monday to Friday from 11 am to 2 pm and may suit a hosted event, invitation-based meal or quiet study break.

Reserving ahead is sensible when access or seating matters.

Pizzeria San Gennaro brings Neapolitan-style pizza to Bahnhofplatz 15, with a real pizza oven, well-balanced mozzarella and sauce, and service that keeps pace with station life. It is a strong choice for travellers who want more than a rushed platform snack, whether stopping for breakfast, a quick lunch or a late dinner.

Dogs are welcome, and hours extend to 1 am on Fridays and Saturdays.

Restaurant Spitz sits beside the National Museum on Museumstrasse, offering a central setting with an especially appealing terrace. Its straightforward restaurant style works for daytime meals, from weekday lunches to a relaxed weekend visit.

Lunch can be busy because of its convenient location, so booking ahead is a sensible choice when time is tight.

SBB Restaurant Oase is a spacious-feeling station-area option on the third floor of Museumstrasse 1, just outside the main concourse rather than directly on the platforms. The menu offers enough variety for a casual meal, with prices that feel comparatively approachable for central Zurich.

Daily opening from 6 am to 10 pm covers breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Süd brings southern European spirit to Bahnhofplatz with an all-day dining format that runs from breakfast through dinner. Italian-influenced favourites include cacio e pepe and tiramisu, complemented by a wine-led evening atmosphere and warm service.

The broad daily schedule makes it useful for travellers, while the setting remains comfortable enough for a proper dinner rather than a hurried stop.

Dupont combines a brasserie and bar on Beatenplatz, with an inviting outdoor setting, polished service and a menu that reaches from filet and veal ravioli to beef tartare. Live music can add energy to the evening, making it better suited to a leisurely dinner or drinks than a quick station stop.

Its central Zurich location is convenient for an after-work meal or night out.

mit&ohne sits in the underground food area of Zurich Hauptbahnhof, next to Coop, and specialises in customisable kebabs for an efficient station meal. Choices include Chicken Döner, Yaprak Steak Döner and Planted Chicken Kebab, with plenty of vegetables and a smaller portion option.
