At a glance
Via del Gusto 28 brings the flavours of Italy to Zurich through freshly prepared focaccia, aperitivo drinks, coffee and desserts. The venue combines a casual lunch option with a more leisurely Italian-style aperitivo, making it suitable for a quick bite as well as an unhurried drink accompanied by small plates and savoury treats.
Focaccia is prepared with a crisp finish and dressed to order, keeping the focus on fresh ingredients and traditional Italian combinations. The menu includes vegetarian and vegan choices, giving plant-based diners options alongside the broader focaccia selection. The food is designed to be straightforward and generous, with a strong emphasis on recognisable Italian flavours rather than elaborate presentation.
The aperitivo follows the social tradition of meeting over a drink and something to eat. Selected beverages are served with accompanying delicacies, creating a format that works for an early evening gathering or a relaxed pause during the day. Coffee and desserts extend the offer beyond the savoury menu, while the overall style remains centred on Italian café and bar culture.
Located on Lagerstrasse 28, Via del Gusto 28 has a welcoming, intimate character. Its atmosphere aims to evoke the feeling of an Italian piazza, with traditional recipes, familiar flavours and warm service shaping the experience. The setting suits solo diners looking for a casual lunch, pairs sharing an aperitivo and small groups arranging an informal meal.
Focacce can be ordered without a reservation, which makes the venue practical for a spontaneous stop. For aperitivo, a reservation is recommended, particularly when the visit is planned around sitting down for drinks and accompanying food. The combination of accessible focaccia, Italian drinks, coffee and desserts gives the venue flexibility across different parts of the day.
