We had some visitors over the long weekend, and on Saturday since the weather was beautiful and the views to the Alps were unhindered, Jace recommended we go for a drink at Jules Verne Panorama bar just off Bahnhofstrasse. At first I was hesitant, it was a sunny, warm day - why not have it outside at a pub... but after I saw the view from up here, I was sold. This is really an amazing spot.
Here is the bar from the outside. I thought that the drinks would be super expensive here due to the view, but they are really no more expensive than any other nice bar in Zurich... I had a panache for CHF 6. That is really pretty standard - and the view was thrown in for free. I really recommend you go for a drink next time someone special is in town. Great spot, Jace! Now how many gin and tonics did you have to drink here to realize that? ;)

Great spot.... thanks for the comment... I havent forgotten and will do it...
I love the view from this place, but made the mistake of ordering a mixed drink - it was on the small side (naturally) - next time I'll stick with a beer.
hey there ! i have passed by there about 9,725 times, but never went up for the view, nor a drink. think i'll have to, now that the permanent gray has lifted itself from the city ! yay!
very cool all your posts on the spotted by locals site too. i could not agree more with all of them - chocolate, felafel, cakefriends... !! very cool !
