Small selection

This Hiltl has a smaller selection than other ones, at least when I went there. The location is convenient though. 4.5CHF per 100g of food, so expect to pay at least 25CHF for a meal.

What a heaven

Was there four or five times. So many options to try, most of them really good, not everything super special but still good. Like the concept but it’s very expensive.

Vegan Lunch

Buffet weigh and pay with lots of vegan and vegetarian options. Good selection of hot and cold mains in sides and desserts. Close to the station with outside seating. No reservations

Pros: Lots of vegan options clearly marked.

Very good food

There’s plenty of vegan options but a lot of it is vegetarian. Food is by weight so when you simply want to add veggies you’ll pay the same price as adding curry with rice or lasagna. The creamy vegan curry was very tasty and so were the falafels but the hummus and guac tasted store bought especially the guac which did not taste like guac. But besides that everything else was very flavorful and it’s recommendable.

Pros: Plenty of vegan options , Friendly staff , Good location

Cons: Pricey by weight

Easily accessible and lots of choices

It's located right next to the main train station. Great food, lots of variety! Everything is very delicious. Free: one slice of bread and tapwater. The place used to be a post office and you can still see some remnants from that era which is great. The only downside is that it's usually packed and super loud.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Free tapwater

Cons: Usually packed and loud

Grundsätzlich lecker aber leider oft zu kalt

War schon öfters dort essen, leider kommt es immer ein wenig drauf an wann frisch nachgelegt wurde...dementsprechend oft zu kalt und dem Preis nicht ganz angemessen

Pros: Schnell, Sehr gute Säfte

Cons: Manchmal zu kaltes Essen

Lots of vegan options

This place has many healthy and tasty options on the buffet. Note that everything is not vegan. Staff was friendly and helped as find a free table. Place is clean and looks nice, but there is not much between tables and you might feel jammed. Anyway I recommend this place wholeheartedly.

Pros: Lots of options, healthy, tasty, fresh, , cold and warm options

Cons: You need to check if the food is vegan or not.

Loved It

I went with another vegan friend of mine after the Animal Rights March (2019). There were so many vegan options and it was a very open, comforting atmosphere.

Pros: Food was delicious., The staff was generally friendly. , Many vegan options

Cons: One of the staffs was not so friendly.

Nice but expensive food, not so nice staff

Quite a few nice vegan food options, mostly curries. Very few vegan desserts but the mango is ripe. Very expensive though. They charge you for the weight of take-away box as weight of food. Even if you bring your own. The person at the counter was difficult plus charged me for bread. A little thing but it was not a nice experience. (Management was nice though).

Pros: Close to the station

Cons: Expensive, Difficult staff (many of them are nice though)

Riesenauswahl, gute Ersatzmenus

Riesiges Buffet (Hauptmahlzeit und Desserts) mit sehr vielen veganen Optionen. Auch viele „Ersatzmenus“ für Bekanntes wie „Züri-Gschnetzlets“, sogar teilw. in veganer Variante. Immer wieder top. Leider am Mittag extrem voll, man miss auf Plätze warten und braucht Geduld am Buffet.

Pros: Gute Qualität, sehr lecker, Riesige Auswahl, Schönes Lokal

Cons: Sehr teuer, Oft sehr voll

Got takeout here

Had takeout from here - you just get a container and fill it up with food from the buffet and they weigh it and charge accordingly at the till. No problem getting my food quickly. And again delicious buffet food with marked ingredients.

Pros: Plenty for vegans , Ingredients are marked

Cons: Expensive but it is Zürich

Great choice

Lots of vegan options, almost too much choice. It’s a place that even non veggie/vegan friends like too. Cost is on the pricey side but it’s yummy!

Coole Location

Das Hiltl Sihlpost hat eine besondere Ausstrahlung. Die Inneneinrichtung ist außergewöhnlich und hat Flair. Das Buffet bietet eine riesen Auswahl (beinahe etwas zu viel) und die Abfertigung an der Kasse geht schnell.

Nothing if you are in a rush for a train

Vegetarian restaurants that serves a lot of vegan options, has a coffee bar and offers everything to go, bit even though they are right next to the train station you need to bring time, even a coffee to go can take up to 10minutes

Pros: Tasty Food

Cons: Expensive, slow staff

Delicious

Sometimes a little bit crowded during lunchtime. If you have the choice avoid 12-1

Buffet, you pay what you put on the scale. Be careful not to put too much on it, it‘s expensive but delicious. Highly recommended!

Expensive but really nice

It's Zürich, it's expensive... But the buffet is really big, with lots of vegan options (clearly indicated). Also, it's right next to the railway station.

Pros: big variety, also for vegans

Cons: expensive

huge buffet, huge selection, beautiful interior design

I love eating at hiltl sihlpost because you don't have to order from a menuecard but you can choose by eye and put on your plate what ever looks good to you.
they don't only serve special salads, maindishes and desserts but also very unique drinks.
What makes this restaurant even more special is it's interior design. The restaurant used to be a post office and they intigrated the atmosphere and the look of it perfectly.
I'll be back :)

this is The Institution in town

Great post-industrial location right downtown Zurich.
Food has good quality as the drinks. Try the hot kurkuma latte (kind of golden milk with cinnamon) or the amazing hot ginger tee. I just love this place!

Pros: location, buffet - tab water free , atmosphere

Cons: staff can be more helpful at the cashier , bit pricy but this is Swiss

lecker wie gewohnt von Hiltl

Das Essen ist einfach nur vom feinsten. Das Lokal ist nicht so gemütlich wie das original Hiltl, eher wenn man schnell etwas essen will. Das Buffet ist auch längst nicht so gross, aber immer noch sehr reichhaltig und hat auch genug für Veganer.
