As the world’s oldest vegetarian restaurant, according to Guinness World Records, we’re committed to doing our part for a future worth living in.
For us, responsibility starts with the ingredients we choose. That’s why we source the majority of our products from Switzerland and neighbouring European countries. Our buffets and drinks menu change with the seasons six times a year, ensuring our offering is always seasonal, regional, fresh and varied.
Careful buffet planning means we can delight our guests with a wide selection right through to the end of the day, while keeping food waste to a minimum. Whatever is still left over is given a second chance through Too Good To Go.
We take responsibility behind the scenes, too. Our commitment to greater energy efficiency has been recognised with the sustainability certificate from ewz.effizienzbonus. In future, our connection to the CoolCity lake-water network will allow us to heat and cool Haus Hiltl using Zurich lake water in a climate-conscious way. Step by step, we’re helping to shape a future worth living in for generations to come.
