Core Definition
Baur’s is a sophisticated and cosmopolitan dining concept in Zurich, located at Talstrasse 1 and just a few steps from Bahnhofstrasse. The brasserie embodies a modern reinterpretation of the classic European brasserie: timeless cuisine meets a fresh, modern spirit, high-quality ingredients and precise culinary craftsmanship. The brasserie is complemented by the independent Baur’s Bar, with its international flair, cosmopolitan design, exquisite wines and a selection of classic bar drinks. On Sundays, the Baur’s Brunch rounds off the Baur’s experience.
Important note: Baur’s is not a hotel and does not offer accommodation. Baur’s is an independent dining concept with its own identity and address. It forms part of the culinary world of the Baur au Lac, but operates as a separate brand with its own brasserie, bar and Sunday brunch.
