Center Bar and Kitchen in Kloten

Top service! My flight left in less than an hour and after a few seconds I had everything on my table that I simply ordered using the QR code. I am incredibly surprised and find the staff very friendly and accommodating. They all work very quickly and with concentration. There was a lot going on and that's why I would like to say a lot of praise. By the way, my cappuccino with oat milk also tasted excellent!!!!!!

Everything fine. We were there with the family and very satisfied. Very friendly service

I just wanted to take a moment to share my positive experience at the Centerbar. The food was absolutely delicious, and I couldn't have been happier with the drinks selection, especially considering it's an airport bar. The service was very friendly and made my visit all the more enjoyable. I love stopping by for a quick breakfast or even a full meal, paired with a great glass of wine. The Centerbar has definitely become one of my go-to spots whenever I'm at the airport. Will be back soon!

online check-in, tables not cleared, lady from the food service, received a coffee instead of a bowl after 20 minutes, It's a shame, you could do better than that, so the price/performance ratio was justifiable

Very slow service, despite online ordering system (waited 20 minutes for a single latte macchiato); The muffin and glasses were missing from the first order... it's a shame, not a great experience for the high prices.

CHF 2,00 for a glass of water just because I had to take my medicine. That’s hospitality!

View and location are nice, but the online payment system did not work. After ordering "traditionally" and waiting 20 minutes for a single beer which never arrived, I left. On previous visits service was not great but never that bad.

Brilliant experiment done: 2 tables, 2 people each, one table with, one without a tip ordered the same thing, same waitress: with tip: Hello, how are you, friendly etc.; without: stood there without a word and trotted away. Need more explanations? That's why I hate this pre-emptive hypocrisy of tipping without prior service. The croissants and coffee are great. The price is typical for the airport and is ok.

Damn juice shop. Waited 20 minutes for a beer. Got nothing.

The sushi is very tasty and the service is very good

Service is very friendly and accommodating

Bobby is adorable ! i recommend

Food good, prices rather high, but waiter Bobby is King - service, energy and passion!

We sat down to order something to eat and drink a beer but gave up on the food when the beer arrived. The Heineken we ordered tasted horrible and the reason was because the lines are extremely dirty. So if you're looking for a good Heineken, avoid this place as much as possible.

Nice restaurant with a view of the runway. The sushi and chicken curry are highly recommended. Fast and friendly service. I would be happy to come back.

It is very nice place to have a good Coffee and something to eat, the staff was friendly

The server, Bobby was so helpful and polite.

Delicious coffee from il baretto. Super friendly staff.

Great place to have some coffee, friendly staff, easy to order as its online menu and payment.

Moon prices and nothing vegan quick service

5 stars because I have nothing to complain about, but I have something to note. After the whole check-in, passport and security procedure, you just want to sit down and relax and eat or drink something. It's absolutely the wrong place to come with annoying QR codes and online orders. Nobody wants to think about this kind of stuff when they can finally shut down before the flight.

Very good food, in huge contrast to the numerous bad comments. The enemy image of the restaurant at Zurich Airport will probably be massively punished. I consider the QR system to be well thought out and works perfectly. The sushi we had was very tasty. The atmosphere is great with a view of the runway and the absolute highlight is the planes that you can see taking off and landing.

Super delicious cardamon knots. I always come back here. Everything works great and smoothly. Staff is always friendly.

Although it was proven that payment was made immediately via twint, we had to pay for the drinks we ordered again. Showing the debit confirmation didn't help. Since we refused to pay again, the drinks were taken off the table again. Conclusion: Paid 12.20 francs but didn't get any drinks. The staff involved and the boss present were extremely unfriendly even though we only pointed out their mistake objectively. We have been demonstrably cheated out of our money. We can only warn everyone and hope that others are spared such a situation. There are plenty of other good bars/restaurants in the airport.

Best place to relax before or after a flight 🫶🏼

Excellent service, sensational cappuccino like in Italy, when I fly I always like to stop by, on the way back I stay for lunch, I love it 🤩💋

Great quality and very practical with the QR system.

Nice atmosphere, top service. We recommend!

Very bad service, I have been having breakfast at this bar and I have asked them for a glass of tap water and they have denied me, telling me to go to the bathrooms because there is water there. the waitress's name is Cameroun Very bad service, I do not recommend this site to anyone. Disastrous service

The red Thai curry is highly recommended! Simple and efficient order-payment system...I'll be happy to come back!

When the Center Bar is full the waiting times are longer, but that's like everywhere else. If that and the whole electronic ordering process doesn't bother you, you'll have pleasant moments in this place. One thing is certain: the coffee here is a lot better than the dark brew that is sold under the name of coffee on planes.

We often go to this modern and very comfortable lounge. We have always been extremely satisfied because the food is fresh and delicious. You have a great view and all the technical devices that still need to be charged are charged. Orders are placed using a QR code and payment is also completed directly. Our last visit was on January 1st, 2024 and I was able to enjoy our first breakfast of the new year with my son. We ordered sushi and a cheese cake +2 latte macchiato, which looked like something out of a picture book. the employees are nice and fulfill every wish. They are polite and courteous and the order was completed quickly. We actually visit this lounge every time we visit Zurich Airport. Maybe the prices are not as low as elsewhere - but they are good and... ha, after all msn is on vacation ;) thank you very much.

The worst ramen on earth. Terrible

I was there on December 25th and had a sushi platter that was wonderfully fresh and delicious. Afterwards an Erdinger Weissbier from the open bar, which is very rare to find in Zurich. The atmosphere is great, full house. I can only recommend it. Thank you very much.

Long waiting times and delayed opening

We were very satisfied. Quick ordering thanks to the QR system, ramen and sushi were delicious, waiting time was completely acceptable despite the high crowds, prices were ok as usual at the airport, location was practical and atmosphere was cool with a view of the runway. For me the best option at Zurich Airport.

Food is ok, although overpriced. but the the online order form can be a bit unreliable.

Service was subpar, the coffee payment system didn't work and I was told: it's not my fault, it's not my problem, I didn't put down the QR codes. There is no customer service and no interest in solving problems. Never again!

Too expensive and the person with dark skin is unfriendly😏

A great location, but unfortunately very impersonal. If you want to order from the staff, you will only see a reference to the QR code. Ordering 2 croissants took over 15 minutes at 5:00 in the morning. Orange juice freshly squeezed for 8.- feels and tastes canned, or at least adulterated. The chocolate croissant was at least very good. Too bad - a bad customer experience.

4 bucks approved, service cold, coffee 2nd class.

You can't order anything at the bar, can't pay. Can't even get a glass of water. It must all be done over the internet with a QR code and they also prompt you to give a tip?? For what?? There is no personalised service.. the tip could be going to the business owner for all I know. Also you must put your car din every time you order. Bring back service and bring back cash.

I would give Zéro star if I had an option. For all my people of colour, you are not appreciated and valued at this place. Had an issue with their online menu, told the waiter, she told me please wait 1 second and see her passing by up and down taking ither people’s order (whxte people) that came after me and ignored me. Tried to speak to their “manager” or whoever the brown guy is, he did the same! long story short, in Conclusion, this restaurant is Zurich DO NOT value black people; mind you, I was the only black woman in the entire place full of whxte ppl. I regret my CHF 54 that I spent there. I will never go back. Never ever. I’d spend my money where I am valued as a person of colour. From the boss to the least paid, all RUDE!

Impossible service, booking system does not work for several guests, no apology but the accusation that you are too stupid to use the app - avoid this cafe!

Food completely overpriced. Sushi also did some extreme fishing. I absolutely cannot recommend it. You can't call it service, you order the food yourself online and it is brought to your table quickly, quickly.

My wife and I were in the airport on Friday evening October 6th, 2023 and were looking for a restaurant to eat something before departure. We then came across the restaurant, which was attractive from the outside. Since we couldn't find your entrance, we walked around the entire restaurant twice because all the entrances were cordoned off. There were still spaces available, but apparently they didn't want any guests. After I called someone through the restaurant how to get in here, he said here and turned off the tape. Once you're in, you can move on. No no, you can't just place an order, that would be far too easy. First, the barcode must be scanned so that the card can be viewed. Then you order directly and pay straight away. I was surprised to see that a 5% tip was automatically added. So the customer is no longer allowed to decide whether they want to tip or not? What kind of procedure is that???? While we waited for the food (approx. 40 minutes for 2 salads), we watched the operation for a while. an older gentleman sat down next to us and just wanted to drink a beer. He quickly became overwhelmed with the technology. The lady behind the bar recognized the situation well and gave him a beer without an electronic order. Great, thumbs up. Behind the bar, drinks were prepared by busy women in a small space. Then the drinks went to the bar to be distributed. The boss (we assume it was him because he was dressed differently than everyone else) then tried to distribute the drinks somehow in his clumsiness. That was really amusing to watch. Basically there was chaos after the counter. In the end I paid around CHF 105 for 2 salads and 2 Aperol and a mineral. The Aperol didn't taste like Aperol and the salad dressing was watery. Conclusion: Not recommended Although the ambience is very appealing. It has immense potential that is not being exploited here. The prices are overpriced for the quality delivered and it is not possible to include the tip.

After ordering in a super impersonal way using a QR code, you get the things you ordered served very unmotivated - if you're lucky! We sat at the bar, so things went pretty quickly. But after asking three times, I got my croissant myself. There were a few people around us who, after a very long wait, almost all received the things they had ordered and paid for. But a family had to go to the gate without getting their belongings. When they complained about where their order was, they only got a shrug of the shoulders. Of course, they no longer had the order on their cell phone and the booking on the credit card app wasn't enough for the staff either. No order or payment has been received by them. In the future I will go a few steps further and stop at a different bar.

I know many airports, and thus many bars at those, but this one is is prestigious due to its super friendly waiters, Nicole and team, not to mention their boss, plus a mega playlist, Ibiza style. Next time, I will happily arrive even earlier to enjoy the otherwise cumbersome waiting time before catching a flight

It is always a wonderful experience to stop at the Center Bar before departure. Thank you very much for the great service!

Very expensive, servant does not talk/communicate, live bird show at the bar ! (see pictures - hygienic?)

The people and worker very nice but management are terrible, how the treat the staff in front of the costumer are terrible, even me as a costumer get insulted badly.....

15 min wait time to get a coffee and a croissant. Super expensive + fees when paying online

I ordered chicken curry. It was delicious and it came extremely quickly. Probably they just warmed it up a little, dishes are all pre-made and ready to serve, but for an airport that's actually not bad. You order through an app that for me didn't work well, I tried a couple times until eventually I had to ask the staff directly and ordered outside of the app. Prices are on the high side.

Too long waiting time even for a drink

Too expensive for what you get and sadly not even that good.

The service is lousy! It takes half an hour to click through the QR code. Sending doesn't work either. The wait is incredible.

The drinks are too expensive and the food doesn't taste good.

Food is great which I expect for the price. Waiting time after ordering via QR code is outrageous. 20+ minutes for a coffee and glass of water.

Prepare to scan as the ordering is through their app. For some reason, some of the staff here are quite rude to some clients looking around for a table or checking out the menu. Maybe a hard day? But that is no excuse as we all can have a bad day, scaring off people randomly by shouting at them is a big no-no. Hard to eat even when food is good once you witness it, especially when you're seated near the entry. It's pricey too.

The most expensive lunch i had in my life. And i had to order online while the staff was right there. 43€ for a soup and a beer. Feels like i got scammed.

Bungling ordering app Never again

I travel often from the Zurich airport and I always go to this restaurant because of great food selection and speed. Unfortunately today I had a really bad experience. I ordered from the app, the bank took the payment but the system didn’t acknowledge my order. I closed down the receipt, and there is no email/phone where they send you receipt. I showed my payment to the waiter which called his boss and said he can’t do anything, which i find absurd. Unfortunately I’ll never visit this restaurant again, how can I trust the system?

Super bad service. I feel sad for the ovner, and more for the guest :(

What's that about? Order digitally via QR code, waiting time for 5 drinks 25 minutes. From my perspective, there are 5 people scurrying around haphazardly behind the counter. Completely misplaced concept for this place, absolute no go. In addition, the prices weren't exactly cheap.

Ordering from your cell phone was the only positive thing, as you can pay quickly and conveniently. However, the prices are totally exorbitant, even for Zurich! We ordered two cappuccinos and a croissant. However, after waiting for more than 30 minutes, we had to leave the restaurant before the order arrived, otherwise we would have missed the flight. It was before 6 a.m. tomorrow morning and by no means full. We will not visit this restaurant again and cannot recommend it.

I visited the place on Sep 2023 as I was transferring between flights. The food was tasty (Seasar Salad and Sushi plate), but the sun caused the place to be inconvenient. Food and service are good but the place is extremely expensive - be careful! I paid circa $US for these two dishes and a coke...

So bad !!!! You Can only order ans pay through QR code (which did not work for me) so unhuman then they cannot take your order in another way.

visited last year before return trip to home. it is expensive but swiss is very very expensive at everything, and in airport, you have to expect it world be very, expensive. so, im not suprised by the price, but still it is quite high. i think i bought salmon sushi and it was really nice. crew was nice too. and the view from the window seat is great too. i felt good enough pace to eat small things and have a rest before got into the plane. BUT, it is expensive.

You have to do everything using a QR code; when you pay, a 5% tip is automatically added without you having to interact with the staff in any way. The staff is listless and the prices are very high even for airside. Not recommendable.

1 star - for the hot food and a relatively wide choice 1 star - for the digital service The rest was bad. Bad ramen, bad coffee, bad dirty tables, bad prices (very bad for this quality).

My Italian breakfast, coffee and croissant, after 14 days in India, what can I say? Good coffee and also the croissant, and above all I wanted to thank the waiter who served me because he was really kind! Thank you so much

The staff seems extremely work-shy. Despite free tables, we were refused entry and asked to wait. After 5 minutes we went one floor up to Sprüngli and were greeted very nicely.

Ordering via barcode is very sterile for my taste. If you were to order from a person, they could tell you about the waiting time. That would be very, very good! Especially at an airport. Great ambience. I think prices are rather high even for an airport. Only 2 stars because of the waiting time in which I couldn't interact with anyone. The selection is also too small for me

Two soft drinks, a coffee and two croissants... we've been waiting for 25 minutes. Neither learned nor experienced gastronomy. Only bad. The second star goes to the view of the runway.

Nice service. You can only order via QR code, what nonsense!

The ambience is what definitely appeals here, with a direct view of the aircraft processing. The service is often a bit difficult and the guest sometimes has the feeling that the peace and quiet is being disturbed. Ordering via QR code for an espresso is a bit over-engineered.

The drinks we ordered were all non-carbonated. Disappointing!

Bad café and even worse croissants. Definitely not recommended for breakfast.

Salmon Pole Bowl was actually really good!

Everything online - good Drinks received when finished eating 🫣

Unfortunately I didn’t read the reviews before I order. Really low quality for what you pay… and extremely rude and unpolite staff.

Almost lost my flight waiting for the order

Very tedious online ordering with QR code. If the code cannot be read, someone will finally try to take the order.

Many customers and the service remains friendly and very competent! Food and drinks very good!

The Hugo was a little bland, but the service was fast

You have to order the qr code yourself, unfortunately there is no search function for >10 menu items just for drinks. Absolute failure. But what's much worse is that there's no more coffee at 8 p.m. even though it's open until 10 p.m.???

Very expensive, not recommended

Long waiting times for a coffee (10 minutes)

Thank you! Finally a bar where I can just order with my phone by scanning a QR code. No waiting time for a waiter to order, no waiting time for a waiter to pay. It's just so simple and I loved it. The food was fresh and tasty, the service was fast and friendly. Don't really understand other negative reviews here.

It is very dirty, especially the floor, and extremely overpriced.

They’re really slow and they don’t have take away

Have to order yourself, wait forever, tip is added automatically and steep prices. No comparison to Sprüngli right next door. Plus unfriendly staff

Online paying includes a default tip of 5%. You can change it, but when there is barely any service at all, why tip? Don't try impose tip culture when there isn't one.

Positive: - can use your laptop, there are plugs and a nice atmosphere Negatives: - Coffee mediocre, asked for flat white and got a double cappuccino instead (not the same thing). - Expensive even for swiss standards. - Tap water is paid - Only cow milk and no brown sugar

Disappointing. Overpriced prices. I think it's a real shame because the staff is friendly and accommodating

Payment method sucks! It's way too complicated.

Food is okay, but the service is rather unfriendly

An impudence. Table and floor reasonably clean. I order myself, pay in advance without integration with Twint. This at prices that allow you to expect excellent service. But it's not.

You find your table, scan and pay on your phone. Quick and practical, but lacks in attention and flexibility

App used to order. Since recommended by the operator. Waited much longer for coffee and croissants than those who ordered directly. The coffee came 12 minutes after it was ordered. Unfortunately without croissants. This had to be pointed out again
