Kweer is a cosy LGBTQ+ café-bar located in Zurich’s Old Town, breathing life back into the historic Barfüsser venue, which was a cornerstone of the queer community from the 1950s to the late 1990s. The space has been thoughtfully revived to create a welcoming environment for queers, students, and locals alike. With its warm, laid-back vibe, Kweer offers a great spot to grab ethically sourced coffee from local roasters or enjoy creative cocktails and regional snacks.
Open from early morning until late, Kweer is ideal whether you're popping in for a midday work session, a coffee with friends, or cocktails in the evening. There’s even a moveable library, giving the space a quirky touch and allowing for different event setups. From Drag Bingo to karaoke nights and even the famous Kweer Ball, it’s clear Kweer loves celebrating community events and is dedicated to keeping Zurich’s LGBTQ+ scene vibrant.
Perfectly balancing nostalgia and modernity, Kweer is becoming a beloved hub for locals and visitors alike, making it a must-visit for anyone exploring the queer side of Zurich.
The ambiance and the waiters of the cafe are nice. The fact that everyone's welcome here too. Now that it is being said, never eat their chocolate cake. I almost literally died because of it. Had only one tiny peace (that's 7.5 francs) and one hour later the drama started. For your information, the cake is a fondant(half cooked one). My belly started rumbling, and I took my car to get back home. At some point, really big cramps started to arrive, and then I started puking everywhere in my car. Off course I didn't had time to stop on the highway and almost had an accident with 4 different cars.I traveled in so many "third world countries" and never had any stomach problem after eating something. Never thought that my Nemesis was in Zurich.I'll drop by another time, and if that happens again, you can be pretty sure you'll get a trial. Please, be careful with your customers.
This is the only bar I’ve been to where the staff looks annoyed when you order a drink. The cocktails tasted as if they were watered down, and the whole place smelled really bad. Would never go back even if they paid me.
This place is a joke. The bartenders act like they’re doing you a favor by serving you, and the drinks are overpriced and watered down. If you’re looking for a fun night out, go literally anywhere else.
I was absolutely shocked by how I was treated here. The staff was rude from the moment I walked in, and it was clear that they were picking and choosing who to serve based on appearances. Discrimination should have no place in a business, yet it seems to be the norm here. Avoid at all costs.
Nice bar downtown, with disco and 2000’s music. Sone french hits 👌 in the back a little bit too lighted but very cozy mood. Some sofas in there too lay on. Drinks are kindda expensive but i guess it is normal prices in Zurich. Toilets are very small
Two queer places at one address: by day a welcoming café in the heart of old Zurich, by night a bar - lovely, friendly staff; great coffee; spacious, cozy seating.
Wow! Was here today around 4pm - had wery good coffee!!! Loved it, two barostas behind bar were really nice, although stressed 😉 Will come again, best capuchino in town 😋
Such a cute place! I wish we were in Zurich longer to come back. The drink names were so fun and delicious! Staff was welcoming and friendly. It seems like a great local hangout with lots of events.
I've been there twice, once at morning and had great coffee and a tasty croissant and once at night to enjoy a drink. Both times the service was great and the prices fair, will definitely be back!
Best cafe I've been to in forever! Beautiful place, great coffee and super vibe!None of this starbux crap or asylum white interiors with insta miserable people.Just chill, cool and happiness
I love the cafe. But why keep the back space closed during the day (sometimes)? It is such a great place to sit and work. I think it’s the employees who decide to keep it open/closed. Please just always have it open❤️ and please clean the bathrooms once in a while. Otherwise perfect!
