Dupont - Brasserie & Bar

Dupont Brasserie & Bar brings modern brasserie dining to Beatenplatz in Zurich, beside the main railway station. Set within a historic building, the venue combines a lively, cosmopolitan atmosphere with a rustic-industrial interior. The setting works across the day, from a quick stop for a light snack to a longer meal over lunch or dinner.

The menu takes an international approach, with familiar classics alongside a changing selection of freshly prepared dishes. Pizza, burgers and momos feature among the broad range of choices, giving the kitchen an accessible, informal character rather than a narrowly defined culinary style. Regional produce is used where possible, and the menu changes with the kitchen’s ideas and available ingredients.

Lunch has a practical role at Dupont, including a dedicated business-lunch offering on weekdays. The restaurant also suits a more leisurely evening meal, with enough flexibility for different occasions and appetites. Diners looking for something lighter can choose snacks, while those after a fuller meal can settle in for the main menu. The mix of international comfort food and brasserie staples makes the restaurant approachable for varied tastes.

The bar forms an important part of the venue rather than serving only as a waiting area. It provides a place for cocktails, wine and small bites, making Dupont suitable for an after-work drink or a pause following shopping along Bahnhofstrasse. During the warmer summer months, the terrace adds an outdoor option for drinks and snacks.

With its station-side location, all-day format and varied menu, Dupont suits business lunches, casual meals, relaxed dinners and informal drinks. The interior’s combination of historic surroundings and industrial details gives the restaurant a distinct urban feel, while the broad food selection keeps it adaptable for both planned meals and spontaneous stops. Table reservations are available for occasions that call for a more structured visit.
