This place was AMAZING. My fiancé and I are usually bourbon drinkers, but we were on the hunt for a…read moreSwiss whiskey since we were visiting the beautiful country. It was such a surprise that NONE of the markets sold local whiskies! We looked it up and ended up here. The atmosphere is very cool, the old school bar as the register area is so beautiful. It feels very high class. The service was great and so knowledgeable. The coolest part is they let us try a bunch of the whiskies to decide which one we wanted to take home! Their prices were very fair, especially for some of the rare bottles they had. Highly recommend, we would be regulars if we lived in the area, but we settled for a bottle and a couple pocket shots.

I've been in a few times and have only been met with very 'present' and engaging staff. Score. As one might imagine, the single malt selection is beefy. They stock a personal fave: Caol Ila Distiller's Edition. In addition to scotch, there's a decent selection of Bourbon and Cognac. At the front of the shop is a small tasting table. Ask the staff to try a spirit and they'll gladly oblige. What I most liked was that even though this shop is in Niederdorf, it wasn't over-run by tourists and had prices that were either commensurate with other shops, or slightly less expensive.

Massive selection of booze. Wine, beer and spirits. Mixers, snacks and even some glassware. Yep,…read morethis place has just about everything you need to get you and your crew intoxicated. We bought three bottles of wine, two bottles of beer and yes, I need a bag of chips. The store is small but mighty with a wide variety that was well stocked. At least 200 different beers, most of them chilled. Prices were decent, considering the convenience here in the Hauptbahnhof. [Review 16489 overall - 37 in Switzerland - 1997 of 2021.]

You'll mostly find German and Swiss beers, but there are many other countries represented from Japan to Thailand to Denmark and the USA. Prices are high because they import from all over and are located in such a major train station. Still worth your time to visit and explore flavors. Staff does speak English and is nice enough.

Talk about a lucky find!…read more I was looking for a gift shop for the University and was walking up the road (I had overshot the gift shop) and found Beers 'N More. The staff there are excellent (and speaking good English, fortunately for me). They are very knowledgable about beers (the one chap provided me an absolutely stellar Barleywine). He even helped me get to the gift shop. How cool is that? They are only a couple of blocks from the main university buildings (very well placed for the students, eh?). It's not particularly large, but they carry an excellent supply of many good beers. They have a few non-beer items (glasses, stickers, etc.) but they really focus on the beer part of "beer 'n more". I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town! Highly recommended.

I'm a bit of a snob (beer, Scotch, coffee, food, jeans & bikes are the primary candidates)…read more Although, I don't know that much about beer on the whole. I do know enough to find places that can help me find the things that I like. Beers 'n' More is one of those places. I found them via some random online article saying that they carried Boulevard beer from Kansas City (my home town) which didn't turn out to be correct. However, the guy working today (who seemed to be the guy running the place) knew about every product in the store. He knew how it had been ordered, how it arrived in the store and how much of it was in stock and/or available. In any case, he asked me what I was looking for and then proceeded to give me a number of recommendations based on my likes & dislikes. I'm still waiting for my new beer to chill but I really enjoy frequenting businesses that take enough pride in their product or service to know what's going on in same. Surprisingly, it doesn't happen often enough. Oh... did I mention that the guy there today was amazingly friendly and mentioned that they actually chose their location because it came with a parking spot out front for their customers? Well, it's true. If you're into craft beer and are willing to go a little out of your way to get some, come and check out this place. It's a quick couple of stops on the tram up the hill from the main Zurich train station.

What a fantastic pub. Located in the heart of Zurich we were walking around looking for a place to…read moreget something to eat and get a proper pint and this place was hopping. Unfortunately we got into Xerox so late they were no longer serving food but no matter there was a football game on TV and the locals of course were going berserk for soccer game I don't really understand much for but it was totally awesome to be part of that energy. Of course being Switzerland and Zurich it was pretty expensive almost $40 American for three drinks. When you walk in you see yourself providing there is something available and then you have to order your food and drink from the bar they will deliver it back to your table. They also allow to go drinks and are more than happy. I wish I had more time in Switzerland I really wanted to try their fish and chips

Oliver…read moreTwist Pub was conveniently located within a close proximity to our hotel so we gave it a shot and it delivered. They had one order of fish and chips left fortunately. The fish was fresh and crispy served with a basket of fries, tartar sauce and cole slaw. We ordered and paid at the bar and were served at the table. The place has a British pub vibe and is a great spot if you're looking for cozy bar. It's also a little further from the busy old town scene if you want a break from the heavy foot traffic.

When you walk inside you'll immediately notice their wine selection. Look past that. Find the spirits. The gins, the rums, the aperitifs, the whisky. I spent too much time in here browsing. Do I get an unheard gin, a small batch whisky, 9th Century recipe Chartreuse, a Cuban rum? Do many decisions and my friends weren't helping. Get everything, they say. The staff is very helpful. I found the prices to be a mix of inexpensive, just right, and expensive. It really just depends. Fortunately, it's well organized and each bottle is labeled with volume, price, ABV, and sometimes origin (especially important when browsing all the rums). This place is worth a look.

Beyond the vino are quite tall metal racks filled with rum, whiskey, scotch, bourbon, vodka, gin, aperitifs, digestives, and mixers. A ladder attached to each rack is climbed in order for one to access the booze at the very top of each shelf. Affixed to the front of each rack reads a sign with the words 'no self-service'. At the base of each rack is open product for tasting. I had hoped to try a rye I'd never encountered before, but when I asked after it I was told that that particular brand was not open. Other more expensive ryes, however, where open for tasting, but they were neither offered nor mentioned. -fair enough. If I had really wanted to try another rye, then I would have asked. Although the signs would, perhaps, have had me do otherwise, I did 'help myself' to a bottle of gorgeous Venezuelan rum called Aniversario that happened to be at eye-level and, therefore, easy to grab. The selection of product at P.U. is impressive and seems directed toward those who know their booze, can go in and get exactly what they want without a lot of fanfare.

I'm a wine drinker anyway, so it didn't take much convincing for me to stay for a glass. They have tons of wines to sample, and a variety of wine to have a glass of. The worker did a phenomenal job of describing each one, and giving recommendations. He was super, super knowledgeable. Highly recommend, for what you spend in the city for a drink, this is right on par but you get a cool view from the second story and a lot of cool information.
