Local tip
The theatre programme and restaurant reservations are handled through the venue, so checking both before a visit can help with planning.

Weisser Wind is a restaurant and guildhouse in Niederdorf, with Swiss cuisine at the centre of its offering. The venue combines everyday dining with spaces designed for private functions, making it suited to both a meal in the restaurant and organised gatherings.

The setting is linked to the Zunfthaus zum Weggen, giving the restaurant a traditional guildhouse character. Several rooms are available for events, including the Weggenstube, the Neuzofingersaal and the Theatersaal. Each space contributes to the venue’s role as more than a conventional restaurant, while the restaurant remains the main place for Swiss food.

The Theatersaal also gives Weisser Wind a cultural dimension. It hosts theatrical performances and forms part of the venue’s programme alongside the restaurant and event facilities. This combination creates a setting that can move from dining to private occasions and cultural activities without changing the venue’s overall identity.

Weisser Wind suits diners looking for Swiss cuisine in a historic guildhouse environment, as well as groups planning a celebration, meeting or other organised occasion. The range of rooms supports different event formats, while the restaurant provides a straightforward setting for lunch or dinner. The venue is located on Oberdorfstrasse in Zurich’s Niederdorf, placing dining, events and theatre within the same central address.
