The plan was to keep it as a snack when we got back to the hotel, but it was gone by the time we got to the tram stop. Very soft and chewy, I couldn't help but stop by another Brezelkonig stand the following morning to grab a pretzel on the go. The plan was to keep it and eat it for lunch, but unsurprisingly, it was gone by the time the train was pulling out of the station at 9:15am.

I was getting ready to hop on a long train from Switzerland to Germany, and I wanted a snack that…read morewas portable and not too fussy. I saw Brezelkönig and their display of fresh, yummy-looking pretzels and knew that's exactly what I was looking for. This small stand is located on the Bahnhofplatz (Floor -1) in the large and bustling Zurich train station, and prices are high (like everything in the country). The pretzels on offer looked gigantic in size, though, so it's a bargain if you want a large snack or something to share. I opted for a savory Swiss cheese pretzel, and it did not disappoint. My pretzel was one of those types that have a slightly chewy exterior but a light, fluffy interior. The Swiss cheese added the perfect sharpness to complement the pretzel. Brezelkönig takes pride in baking their goods in-house in Switzerland (their dough fermentation takes place on site, too), and they claim use raw ingredients without any additives. They sell a variety of pretzels stuffed and topped with all sorts of things, from sweet to savory to vegan and even hot dogs. Service was friendly and fast, and my pretzel was fresh and delicious. I'd definitely recommend this place and would stop here again the next time I'm traveling via train through Switzerland!

Was looking for something hearty and inquired about the quiches and opted for the bacon and garlic quiche. Got a latte macchiato as well. You can dine in and the quiche comes with a small salad. The latte macchiato had a layer of foam at the top and seems like they didn't sweeten it at all (sugar on the side) but it was perfect! I usually have a huge sweet tooth and love sweetness but I also can appreciate a good coffee as well, so for a sweet lover like me, the unsweetened version was amazing by itself and the foamed milk combination when you drink it was perfect. The bacon quiche was delicious as well!! They heat it up for you and it's a bacon, cheese with a crusted layer of goodness. Loved my first experience here and I can see myself coming back.

It was within an easy walk of our hotel, so we followed the recommendation. There were four of us and after eating such great food in Paris and along the Rhine in Germany, to be honest we were disappointed. We all had one of their soups. Ms T and I goulash soup and Tom Kha Gai respectively. I had a beer. These soups are not inspired, despite the recommendation. I would classify them as pretty institutional. My Tom Kha Gai had very little of the flavor that you expect. In fact we had a much better version on our cruise boat and the boat is not exactly the place to get great soups. There was very little lime or seasonings. Ms T's Goulash Soup was about the same. It did not taste of the rich paprika flavors it should have. I would classify it as average beef vegetable soup. We liked the little robot that delivers your food, but as for the food, it is OK, but don't expect to be impressed, if you like well flavored soups. And for $50 for two modest bowls of soup and one beer, I would expect better. This is a significant chain of restaurants in Zurich. You are getting fast-food quality.

The hot dog pretzel is definitely they way to go for a quick lunch, though the regular pretzels are good snacks too. Rauchwürstchen: This is the ultimate sandwich on the go. A long pretzel roll with one end cutoff then penetrated on a large metal rod then squirted with mustard inside and then a hot dog is placed in. Pretzels are delicious by themselves, but taste even better with a hot dog. And the vertical design makes this a lot less messy to eat than a regular hot dog or sausage on a roll. Raclette Brezel: Both raclette and pretzels are local favorites, so why not have them both at the same time? There were four sections with caked on raclette and those bites were delicious! Kinda makes you wonder whether raclette restaurants should start swapping out bread for pretzels. The thin pieces of pretzel without cheese were a little boring though, since it's not like they had any salt or other toppings.

But this was my first visit to the branch in Zürich-Stadelhofen. The small line moved quickly, the staff is fast and efficient. They know what they do. I chose a Chorizo Brezel (8.30 CHF) this time. And good news: It's as good as at the other locations! I'm glad they keep the standard and quality anywhere. At least at the locations I've tried yet. The Brezel with Cheese was very nice. Perfect balance between crispy and soft. Then a nice load of Chorizo. And lots of nice butter. And that's it. That's all it needs. A wonderful quick lunch. Price might seem a bit high. But for me that was lunch and for that the price was fine. They moment you take a bit you'll forget about the price and you'll just enjoy this very very good Brezel. At the other locations I also went for regular Salami, Cheese or ham. If you just want a small snack: Get a "Silserli", a smaller bread but with the same topping available.

The seating was comfortable, plentiful, and this was probably our favorite food spot in Zurich. All in all, definitely a must-eat in Zurich if you're visiting.
