  Classy, beautifully furnished (gorgeous wood) establishment with local historical value. Great beer and whisky selection. Men's restroom luxurious and pristine.

  My regular Zurich bar, never had a bad experience here and will be astonished if I ever do. Normal Zurich prices for good food and wine but you get a lovely interior, lovely terrace, and very friendly professional bar staff. Just ask and receive good advice on the contents of their wine cellar. Will be back this afternoon

  Place is a bit stuffy for me. Also quite expensive. Feels like a place for people like to pretend they are elite. There is nicer places to go out in Zürich.

  Comfortable and attractive restaurant & bar.
  Very pleasant interior & outside seating. Several beers on tap, and very good menu with daily specials. Food very good and popular midday lunchtime and evenings. Good and friendly service always made very welcome each time I visited, be it just for a beer or a meal. Good wine selection too. Typical Zurich prices for the area. Well worth a visit.

  Two Chicagoans give James Joyce burgers 👍 👍 (two). Solid burgers and nice cheese and bacon on the James Joyce burger. Hostess was extremely nice but the bartender was a bit grumpy, could have just been a bad day though. Went during lunch hour and the place gets kind of busy during lunch hours I was told.

  Ridiculously overpriced standard pub fare. Decent food but nothing special

  Iris-like pub with great burgers, classy style, fine drink selection and .. well, quite a lot of people :-) Make sure to make reservation and count on very tight space between the tables and everything. This place is popular.

  Beer in a traditional Irish pub, dismantled in Dublin and rebuilt in Zurich. Need say more? Popular with bankers and expats, but not only. Pricey.

  Awesome burgers (although expect Swiss prices of ~30CHF/burger)!
  
  The patty was thick and super juicy. Make sure you get the burgers with the fried egg and bacon and ask if they can add some fried onion on it! The fried onion gives it that perfect crispiness.
  
  We also tried the burger with cheese, fried onion and fried egg, but the type of cheese they use overpowers the taste of the burger and became the star of the show, although it was really yummy cheese.
  
  The outdoor seating area is really relaxing place to hang out for a coffee or drink after lunch.
