Bar Rossi

Can't believe that I didn't know this bar before living so near by!

I liked it a lot because it has live music showcases (no cover, but they do pass the hat to collect some money) and also after the show the music and ambience is just what I like! Really casual and with no entrance price this is a nice place to go out on friday or the weekend. It does get full during the show, but that is fine and after it is pretty relaxed and you can dance away!

I'll come back again and hopefully with the guys from Yelp, since the next round is on me!!

This is a fantastic little hole in the wall place. Bar Rossi doesn't try to be anything that its not, just a very chilled location to have beer and enjoy live music. And my goodness it does this extremely well.
The atmosphere is very relaxed. The clientele is in no way predefined. There is an eclectic mix of young and old, nerdy and hipster, locals and foreigners. Basically it is a place where everyone can just feel comfortable.
The best thing about this place though is the live music. I have been there quite a few times, with absolutely no idea of who/what was playing and each time pleasantly surprised with the quality of music that is on show. The bar is not that big which helps in making the atmosphere as it doesn't require many people to give it that full/pumping feel. And as much a people squeeze into the back, there is always room at the front for a little boogie. After the bands back up, a DJ is generally on hand to lay down some tracks and set the mood.
One of my favourite bars in Zürich!
