Go for add ons

I recommend to see their dishes more as a base because the add ons really made the difference from good to delicious in the end.

Leeecker und gesund

Es sieht hip aus, Essen schmeckt lecker, müsste eigtl als vegan markiert werden, ausser den Eiern und dem Feta als mögliche Beilage sind alle Menüs vegan.

Pros: Sehr viele vegane Optionen, Leckere Smoothies

Good brunch options

Maybe I was just lucky but I really enjoyed the brunch at beetnut. They have a lot of creative options and almost everything is vegan. I had the blueberry pancakes that were and an almond golden milk which was really good and my company was also really happy with the bagel and scrambled tofu. Service was fast and friendly and the restaurant has a lovely atmosphere.

am disappointed

Very nice restaurant, stylish. Unfortunately, the service was not in a good mood. The Buddha Bowl was comparable to an average Asian street food rice pan. And the crispy tofu that I ordered extra was cold and rubbery! Not my taste.

Buddha Bowls galore

Good selection of various style buddha bowls, quinoa tad crunchy, interesting confusion of genres. Pricey but when in Zurich... Stylish venue and happy staff. We enjoyed it.

Amazing coffee!

Went there for breakfast and got the pancakes and a bowl as well as some coffee and tea. Whereas the cappucino was hands down one of the best I've had in a long time I was a bit let down by the food. The bowl was technically plain rice with some plain vegetables and a bit of dressing drizzled on top... for me it was definitely lacking flavours through and through. Sure I like veggies as they are but paying 18CHF for plain vegetables and rice with a bit of sauce.... not for me. The pancakes were good even though quite sweet. The staff was very helpful and friendly, the restaurant itself nicely decorated with heaps of plants everywhere. I'd probably go back for a cappucino but foodwise not really.

Pros: Cappucino

Cons: Individual ingredients very plain

Good restaurant but not fully vegan

My partner and I visited Beetnut for a lunch and we found good food, friendly service and good looking premises. The overall experience has been very positive and we will definitely go back to Beetnut in the future. The Buddha bowl is great.

The only hiccup worth mentioning is that even though it’s menu is vegan by default, they still offer some other non-vegan options as an add on. Because of that Beetnut only appears as a restaurant with options here on HappyCow and it’s loosing lots of potential customers. It would be great if the owners addressed it in the future and removed all the non-vegan options.

Pros: Lots of healthy vegan options, Beautiful interior decor

Cons: Non-vegan ingredients still available as add on

Different cuisines in vegan bowls

This place offers a lot of different vegan bowls but they‘re all from different cuisines like for example a Poké bowl with seaweed, but also a Mexican bowl with Nachos - there‘s something for everybody. 😋

Pros: Almost entirely vegan, Different cuisines, Fresh food

Cons: A bit pricey

tasty food,

We came for lunch on a Sat at 12:00 without reservation; upon arrival it was almost empty but became crowded quickly and thus, preparation time although no table service but order ar counter became noticeably longer. the staff was friendly. The food was tasty, we ordered warm poké and made by inkas, for the latter some ingredients were missing and the staff suggested to replace it w scrambled tofu - good choice. After lunch, we ordered take away coffee & iced coffee, choosing soy milk rather than almond or normal milk.

We had a very nice lunch here. I had a great avocado toast.The place is very modern and pleasant. Service is good. When we stopped by later in the evening, it was much busier.

I will come back to try the fake tuna mousse 😊 and the acai.. and maybe a toast

Pros: Lots of vegan options with great alternative meat

Really good.

Cafe now all vegetarian and most items on the menu are vegan. Nice restaurant, friendly staff and really great food. Good range of food: smoothie bowls, Buddha bowls, pancakes, smoothies, fresh juices... We'll go back.

Healthy Vegan Options

My husband and I tried the Warm Poke bowl with vegan tuna mousse and the Buddha Bowl with crispy tofu on our first visit. The bowls were full of veggies and tasty. The vegan mousse may not have gone so well with the Poke Bowl, but I wanted to try it and was quite good.
For our second visit we went for breakfast. I highly recommend Beetnut for breakfast if you like toasts and smoothie bowls. We split avocado/kale toast, choc banana toast, and the Aloha smoothie bowl. The toasts in particular were excellent. The bowl was visually very appealing and tasted okay, but was lacked flavor as it was topped with (still) frozen fruits. Not bad, but not as good as it looked.

Order at the counter and server will bring to you or pick it up. Vegan items (most of the menu) is well marked and there is an English menu displayed. Expensive, but seems on par with Zurich.

Pretty good.

Menu is pretty much vegan. Lots of the pastries aren't vegan, and you can add cheese to salads and have milk in your coffee, but otherwise, it's pretty vegan.

Fantastic spot

I’ve eaten a number of the menu items here and the smoothie and warm bowls have me returning every trip to Zürich! Great selection of vegan options, free wifi, great seating atmosphere, super close to the central train station, and has an App you can download for coupons and ordering (dine in and takeout).

Pros: Delicious warm bowls , Lots of vegan options , Close to central train station

Cons: Not a fully vegan restaurant , Expensive

Leckeres Menu

Khaleds Favorite sehr lecker, vegane Brownies auch. Buddha style leider enttäuschend. Sehr schönes Lokal, am Mittag eher voll.

Pros: Einige vegane Speisen, Schönes Lokal, Brownie wird aufgewärmt :)

Cons: Teuer, Am Mittag mit Wartezeiten rechnen

Not plant based

The restaurant describes itself as plantbased and a plant based oasis. That is very weird as they serve eggs and even question if eggs are vegan or not. Either take off the “We are plantbased” sign or go vegan.

Pros: Looks nice, Lots of vegan options

Cons: Not plantbased, Think eggs are vegan

Very nice bowl and breakfast

Popped in my first evening in Zürich. To be honest I am surprised to read here that they serve fish as I did not notice that. The spot I sat in seemed like a waiting area at the entrance, and there was a woman sitting near me blabbing in Spanish on her mobile but not ordering anything, which added to that impression. But friendly staff and the bowl I got was very good. Also had breakfast there another day and had very delicious porridge.

Bad aftertaste and horrible music!

This restaurant close to the main station, located in a modern building looks cool from the outside. On the inside there are a lot of sad plants and unfortunately with the turning of the shift, really unpleasant "pop"-music started to get played. The food was not really warm and did not have a lot of taste. The smoothie was nice though. But what I really did not like was the funky aftertaste the food left on my palate. I will certainly not come back here.

Really good.

My partner got the Ghandi warm bowl and I got the seasonal bowl. Ghandi was incredible— really nice flavors and good size. The seasonal was swarming in sauce, so I would ask for that on the side next time. Everything was fresh and very flavorful!

Wide range of vegan options.

One of the only places with vegan options that was open on a Sunday! Had a large variety of vegan dishes including porridge’s, acai bowls, avo toast etc! Staff were super friendly also!

Beetnut is SUPERB

"Fast casual" restaurant with an adorable vibe. I love the succulents that adorn this gorgeous place along with the other thoughtful décor that creates a beautiful atmosphere. Delicious, fresh, food! Great for a quick meal but the space invites longer dining experience also. Highlight recommend the warm bowls for dinner!

Pros: Fresh, delicious food, Good prices for Zurich, Beautiful atmosphere for a fast casual restaurant
