169 West

Really love this spot, I had a fabulous local orange wine and the staff are so friendly and knowledgeable.

This is my favorite wine bar in town. Warm and uncomplicated service. They not only have an excellent hand picked selection of natural wines but also the best nut tart.

169 West Wine Bar is a gem in the heart of Zurich. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and very helpful. The wine selection changes pretty often but there are always some interesting options to choose from. They also have a beautiful selection of snacks to go along with your wine which are all delicious! I will be coming back here many more times in the future.

Unfortunately, they have snacks that do not worth the price. Vegi pate tastes similar to butter with salt and costs 18.5. Moreover, they took additional 4 francs for bread, but this pate is not possible to eat without bread. It's a very bad and unfriendly service experience.

Can’t believe I’ve been coming here almost weekly for two years and never rated this place! This is THE place for natural wine in Zurich. The wine selection is exceptionally curated and changes regularly, with a variety of choices by the glass and by the bottle. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and can discuss all the wines in the selection (a feat in itself) to both more experienced wine drinkers and beginners who want a suggestion. Most importantly, everyone is super nice and it’s always a pleasure to see them :) There’s great quality coffee and nibbles as well! The location is very central without being directly on the main nightlife street of the area, which gives a more relaxed vibe. The interior is super cozy.

Such a cool and nice bar for a glass of natural wine, food to pick at good too. This is my favourite place for a good chat and catch up with friends. Staff lovely and helpful, wine perfect, atmosphere great! Love coming back here over and over

One of the best places in Zurich in terms of quality and vibes. Great selection of natural wines, with the hosts always ready to explain and have discussions about wine and everything. We always end up in deep and meaningful discussions when we are at West.

I came here to buy some bread from a short term residency of another baker. Unfortunately I made a mistake and was a week early. Luckily they were open and serving food. The cheese toastie was fantastic. I think next time I go I need to try the kaya toast, but I fancied the chocolate cake instead.
