Natural wine and coffee is what it says on the website with big letters. And yes, for sure they keep that promise. A great choice of coffee is available from 9 in the morning with brunch being served on the weekends, followed by a more wine-focused atmosphere from the afternoon and during the evening. With a basic design and the furniture mostly made of organic material such as stone and wood, the bar clearly shows its focus on a natural approach in every aspect.

When entering Silex, the guest enters a restaurant that coveys a very welcoming cosiness which immediately makes you feel at home. It is easily approachable as it is located in the heart of Zurich Wiedikon. Here, Julia von Meiss and her team around the two chefs George Tomlin and Jean-Denis Roger, have created a trendy place with a focus on wine and food quality.
