Brisket Southern BBQ & Bar
Zurich
At a glance
Brisket Southern BBQ & Bar brings Southern-style barbecue to Zurich, with a menu centred on meat cooked in a smoker. The kitchen works with brisket, pulled pork, pork belly, spare ribs, chicken, wings and beef sausage, with the selection designed to suit both individual appetites and shared meals.
Smoked meats form the core of the menu, while homemade sauces, pickles and bread accompany the meat dishes. Shared platters combine several barbecue staples and are intended for at least two people, making them a practical choice for groups that want to sample more than one style of smoked meat. Individual portions can also be combined according to appetite.
The menu includes familiar Southern barbecue sides such as coleslaw, French fries, mac and cheese and barbecue beans. Chili cheese fries add a more substantial option, while salads provide a lighter accompaniment. Starters include fried pickles and seasonal vegetables, nachos with guacamole, and other snack-style dishes suited to the bar setting.
Meat-free choices are part of the menu rather than an afterthought. Vegetarian-friendly options include a seasonal salad, fried pickles and vegetables, nachos with guacamole, and chili sin carne. The menu also includes dishes such as chili con carne and smoked chicken wings for diners looking for flavours beyond the main platters.
The drinks side gives the venue its bar character, with cocktails available alongside the food. Music is also part of the setting, with a venue playlist connected to the restaurant's identity. The overall format suits casual lunches, evening meals, shared plates and informal drinks centred on smoked food.
Brisket Southern BBQ & Bar is located at Pfingstweidstrasse 6 in Zürich's industrial and entertainment-oriented west side. The straightforward restaurant-and-bar format makes it a fit for barbecue fans, groups comparing different meats and diners looking for a relaxed meal with substantial portions. Shared platters, flexible meat portions and a range of sides allow a table to order around different appetites.
