Finding a cosy coffee shop in Zurich where you and your child are welcome can be challenging. That’s why we asked the expert: Sara from mammaconnect explored the city and made a little guide about her experiences. This is what she wrote to us:

“Coffee places in Zurich are not as baby-friendly as the ones in Berlin or other cities, where there are special coffee shops or restaurants. So almost every mother has the same problem: Where can I go to have a coffee with my baby? I tried to make a baby-friendly coffee guide for Zurich. The guide consist of 47 cafés in Zurich and you’ll find places where you can take a coffee with your child, where they have a changing table or you can give your baby some food.”

Here are two suggestions from Sara:

• Kafi Dihei: You and your baby are very welcome. There is even a special area for children to play with toys. The food is really great too. Just nearby the Kafi Dihei is the Fritschiwiese with a playground for kids.

• Tibits at NZZ Bistro: The insider tip for mothers with children. The place is spacious and has a special area for kids to play. The Tibits only serves vegetarian food.

At Kafi Dihei, you’ll feel like in your grannys livingroom and we promise: you’ll easily lose track of time. As the name already says („dihei“ means at home), the cosy interior, the wonderful homemade dishes and the friendly owners Geraldine Gschwend and Sabinska Binswanger make you feel instantly at home.

Thanks to the hint of lovely Kimandra, we enjoyed a lovely brunch at the place : granola, eggs and their homemade bread is just the best!

BTW: The Kafi Dihei is perfectly located for a stroll trough the quarter of Kreis 3. Just opposite you’ll find the lovely store Bits and Bobs. If you turn left you’ll end up at Idaplatz with its many nice bars and coffee places and finally the thrift stores Berta 4 and Berta 6 are just around the corner too.
