We went to twinys looking for quick bite to eat under $20 and it was a hard search unfortunately (we were tired of quick meals at coop and migros). And twinys really came to our rescue. It's a food stand so everything there is to go and there is no where to sit. The staff was very friendly, one of my friends had a food allergy and they had no issues whatsoever adjusting his sandwich accordingly. I got the chicken sandwich, their staple sandwich and I was a big fan. Would recommend getting the twiny sauce and the garlic sauce as well. Was quite a flavorful sandwich and the staff even added extra pickles after I joked it. The bread is nice and crispy and the chicken came out hot. My friends loved their salami sandwich. I would note that the sandwiches can be a bit messy, we had a few bread crumbs and pieces of lettuce fall out while eating and the sauce does start to drip. We ended up coming back for more sandwiches later in our trip as our go to quick eat spot that is inexpensive. If you are looking for a bite without spending a fortune in Lucerne would recommend a visit!

It's a takeout window. Easy to order and food was ready quickly. I ordered the large chicken schnitzel with garlic sauce and a side of pommes for 20 CHF.

The fries were good, nothing remarkable, but good old heated up precut frozen fries. We took our food down to the water and ate on a bench. It was great. In fact, we were so full from our sandwiches we decided to skip our sit down dinner a couple hours later.

The sandwich was just right, not too much tuna, not too little. The fresh focaccia bread was also delicious. There were a couple of thinly sliced pickles in my sandwich, a nice touch that provided good taste contrast to balance the tuna fish. At Fr. 7.50 a sandwich, it is quite a good value. The brownie was yummy too, not too greasy and not dry either. The shop itself was also nice, very small but elegantly decorated with brightly colored paintings on the wall. The shopkeeper is a polite older gentleman who spoke English well and patiently explained to me what my options are since it was my first time in his shop. He also offered me a take away bag before I asked for one. His pleasant attitude makes me want to go back and buy more sandwiches from him. TIP - Migg's is a small family operated shop, so cash only, no cards accepted. Also, call ahead to make sure the owner is not off on holiday so you don't trek over and end up walking away hungry like I did last week.

Mmmm lovely. First:…read morethis is a small little shop, family run, with a case of sandwiches and other goodies that are made fresh every day. When I walked in, I was greeted warmly and all of the sandwiches were explained to me (since my German isn't so good!). I was also informed that he had some soup in the back, a mixed vegetable. (In addition to the vegetarian soup, there were also at least two meatless sandwich options, one with gruyere cheese that sounded incredible. I really like that there were some solid choices if I didn't want to eat meat that day.) After thinking about all of the choices, it came down to either the roast beef sandwich with mango chutney, or the tuna sandwich. I asked which was recommended, and went with the tuna sandwich (the nice man helping me, presumably the owner, said "I've been making these for 26 years, so..."). I also grabbed a chocolate brownie with walnuts. Both together were CHF 11, which is quite a good price for lunch in Zurich. The verdict: absolutely completely and totally delicious. :-) The tuna sandwich was on a fresh focaccia bread that was soft and tasty. The tuna mix itself was excellent and generous. And the brownie was divine and clearly very fresh, not greasy, a perfect texture. I think this is going to be one of my new favorite Zürich lunch spots, particularly after my gym which is right around the corner. Highly recommended!!

We spotted Sapori Del Sud and made it a point to come back the next day when they were open. That was a great decision. A majority of the restaurants on this particular street were insanely expensive. We just wanted a quick lunch before we got back to exploring. We were able to get a nice lasagna for a reasonable price. We liked it so much that we ended up walking back to get gelato for dessert later. The son kept apologizing to me because he didn't speak English but there was no need to apologize for that! I was able to use Google Translate to tell him in Italian that we enjoyed their food very much. It was great seeing their faces light up when they heard that. I'm really glad I got to meet these two and enjoy their food on this journey.

Die Fangemeinde des aus den USA mitgebrachten Gebäcks wächst und wächst. Kaum eine Geschmacksrichtung, die es nicht gibt - hier wird Hunger auf eine neue, unkonventionelle Art gestillt. Ob leicht, mit viel Salat und magerem Fleisch oder auch richtig deftig und typisch amerikanisch mit Cream Cheese und vielerlei anderen leckeren schweizerischen Zutaten. Die Auswahl im Webshop der Bagel-Factory ist fast unerschöpflich. Bestellt, nach kurzer Zeit geliefert durch das Züriwerk und genussvoll verzehrt - besser und stylischer kann ein Lunch oder Apéro gar nicht schmecken. Damit es auch an "süssen Sachen" nicht fehlt, hat die Bagel-Factory auch Muffins, Donuts, Cupcakes, Brownies in ihr Sortiment aufgenommen. Der Real-NY-Style-Cheesecake der Firma Sweet Street wird direkt aus den USA importiert. Zu den Stammkunden gehören bereits jetzt viele Firmen wie Banken, Versicherungen aber ebenso Privatpersonen. Ob Apéro, Business-Lunch oder Party - es gibt keinen Anlass, an dem der Bagel nicht für die Hauptrolle zu haben ist. (www.Bagel-Factory.ch)

Been shopping here for years and always walked past this Bar located in the food market in the…read moresub-level of the Globus Department Store. Checked the menu lately and found out that they got oysters on it. Came in yesterday for a pre-lunch snack. The menu is quite interesting. Red and White Wine, Prosecco, Champagne or beer. Deluxe-Sandwiches, Pasta, Beef Tartar, Salmon, Gourmet-Platter, Sushi etc. Prices are surprisingly reasonable. But we came for the Oysters that day, just for a snack. To our surprise, three Oysters with a glass of white wine only costs 16.- here. That's quite cheap. And now the best part. These are Loch Fyne Oysters from Scotland. Some of the best Oysters we've ever tried (been at Loch Fyne a bunch of years ago). Beaten only by Moran's Oysters near Galway. So this here is a fantastic deal. The wine that came with is the Spanish Basa (white), another favourite of ours. And all for this price. We were quite thrilled. Oysters taste fresh, were opened before our eyes. Nice size, good flavours, tender. The Salmon Sandwich we had the other week was a nice surprise as well. Radish spread on the bread, topped with a really good load of high quality salmon. Nice texture, nice color, nice flavour and worth the money. Staff is nice and friendly and the atmosphere here quite relaxing. One might think it's a bit strange being located in the middle of the food market. But this is quite the luxury food market down here, the atmosphere is quiet and calm, the setting tasteful and modern. A nice place to hang out to enjoy a drink and some oysters or some other food. They also serve coffee, tea and soft drinks in case you just wanna hang out at the bar without some food or/and alcohol. A great place. Surely we will come back...and more often.
