About

Roots pairs a broad plant-based menu—protein bowls, daal, sandwiches and vegan pastries—with counter ordering and table service. The canal-side outdoor seats and glass floor looking into the gym below give this casual spot a distinctly sporty setting; bowls can run over CHF 20, and reviewers have sometimes found items out of stock or served lukewarm.
