Hmm, where to start? The wine bar? The margarita bar? The gin bar? Whichever poison you choose, this wildly popular focal point of Zürich's summer drinking scene is pure unadulterated fun and one of the best grown-up playgrounds in Europe.

　　It's strewn with shipping containers, illuminated with multicoloured fairy lights and sandwiched between cheery flower beds and a screeching railyard, and its outdoor seating options range from picnic tables to pillow-strewn terraces and a 2nd-floor sundeck. In winter, the restaurant moves indoors to a funky pavilion and great fondue warms the soul.
