Wow!!!!

Incredible store owner. She let me sample 5 vegan cheeses and they were delicious. I don’t think the block of cheese is going to make it back home to the United States with me 🤣

Pros: Friendly owner, Offers samples

VEGAN CHEEEEESE!

The proprietor was the kindest! She allowed us to try three of their half dozen vegan cheeses and each one was more delicious than the next. She told us all about the cheese and her choice to add it to her shop. Incredible experience!!!

Pros: Half a dozen vegan cheeses, Fantastic service

Traditional Swiss cheese shop wiwth VEGAN CHEESE

I visited this shop today because my eye was caught by the big "Vegan Cheese" sticker in the window. They have a really good selection of Vegusto cheese, locally made in Switzerland and it is absolutely delicious. The amazing woman behind the counter gave me a sample of all the vegan cheese in the cooler and told me about the pros and cons of the melty cheese options. She advised me on their vegan chocolate with a delicious sample and told me the whole story behind why it was manufactured. They also have a small range of other vegan sweets and jars of pesto. And if my visit to this shop couldn't get any better, she told me about a nearby restaurant that does vegan fondue! (Walliser Keller)

Pros: Big selection of V options prominently displayed, Knowledgeable staff, Super central location

Cons: The sticker in the window could be even bigger!

Vegan Cheese!

I visited Zurich a few months ago and heard about Chas Challer's vegan cheese. It was terrific! I highly recommend the aromatic cheese. The store owner was extremely nice and helpful.

BEST Vegan cheeses and fondue for sale here

Daniele, the manager, understands vegans and worked to convince the owners to include high quality vegan cheese--- and fondue! One taste and me and my husband were sold. We enjoy great tasting food, and this store has that! ATTENTION ALL VEGANS in , near or going to ZURICH-- This is a "MUST DO". You will not be disappointed, especially if you miss "cheese". Even if you don't miss cheese-- the taste of the vegan cheeses and fondue is incredible. It should be rated 10 out of 10! Thank you, Daniele, for thinking about vegans in helping to curate this store!

Pros: Deliciious vegan cheeses and fondue , Easy to find in Old Town Zurich, Great prices, great Service (Daniele is a gem)

Es lohnt sich, dort veganen Käse einkaufen zu gehen.

Pros: Auswahl von mindestens 7 Käse-Sorten., Man kann die Käse-Sorten vorher probieren.

Cons: Es gibt leider sehr viel normalen Käse.

Exceptional Vegan Cheese

Shop owner is an absolutely fabulous person who is more than happy to give samples of some of the best vegan cheese I have ever tasted (genuinely). Forward thinking and very aware of the global shift towards a vegan diet. Artisan gins, chocolate and other locally sourced products also available. Delightful.

Pros: Vegan Cheese, Friendly staff, Natural, local produce

Best vegan "cheese" in Zürich

If you're vegan and traveling and want to experience authentic, locally made Swiss cheese alternatives I would highly recommend Urban Food. They will give you samples of their vegan "cheese" and honestly I wanted to buy every vegan "cheese" I sampled, but I could only afford two. Daniel, one of the shop employees, is advocating for veganism by ensuring that there are locally sourced vegan options at this cheese shop. She is fantastic and kind and was such a huge help. If it weren't for her I wouldn't have been able to take home this tasty Swiss vegan cheese alternative, she is encouraging her boss to keep an open mind and sell vegan cheeses here. She also recommended Hiltl to me, which I tried and it was wonderful. They also sell vegan and vegetarian cook books. Give this shop some love!

Pros: They have nine different vegan "cheeses", Daniel practices veganism and is wonderful, They are located in a lovely spot in Old Town

Cons: None! I wish more cheese shops had vegan options
