Excellent and friendly service, great atmosphere, and tons of good spirits. As far as "cocktail bars" go its pretty laid back. There were a handful of D-bags but the crowd was mostly laid-back and youngish. It's on a quiet little side street in the Old Town as well. Our favorite bar on our trip to Zurich.

Well, I'm a guy that travels a lot, and regularly visit big cities in Europe (business and leisure). What I can tell is that this bar is simply amazing. Not only the environment, but the KNOWLEDGE of the bartenders. They simply have a lot of experience about what they are serving.
My passion is Gin... and they have a lot! It's highly recommended to go there.
Of course that they have a wide list of cocktails, and it worth trying many of them!
Hint: just tell the bartender what kind of drink you like, and I'm sure he will prepare or point something nice. :-)

Amazing selection at the bar; knowledgeable staff; cocktail list combines the classic and the innovative (try the Nachtvogel, a champagne cocktail with Islay, port, and bitters). The atmosphere is classy yet low key, nothing like it elsewhere in Zurich. My favorite.

Breath-taking selection of drinks, especially the single malt list is stunning.
Have tried two different cocktails, both were the best version I had in a long time.
Professional bartender, very attentive.
Definitely a must-try.

The Old Crow is a bar that takes the art of mixology seriously. Their menu is extensive but many of the drinks are maybe less known or have an interesting twist. So if you just want to some Aperol Spritzes there are plenty of other places you could go to. I had a Rum Old Fashioned with a surprise ingredient (no spoilers) which was very good.
The bar itself is a bit hard to find especially with Google Maps positioning jumping all over the old town. Take the narrowest alley from Strehlgasse and it's somewhere there.

The Old Crow is truly a destination bar for anyone who enjoys a great drink. The atmosphere is classic meets modern with a genuinely inviting vibe. The bartenders clearly love their craft and can make the perfect classic cocktail as well as exciting (and delicious) new riffs. I definitely recommend sitting at the bar, although the outside back patio is hard to resist on a warm summer evening. There aren't many places in pricey Zurich that I can recommend as highly as the Old Crow.

This bar is exactly what I was hoping to find in Zurich. Great ambiance, amazing menu with a wide variety of cocktails, friendly bartenders who take great pride in making drinks, tasty complementary snacks, and water glasses that are continually filled. I only wish I'd known about it earlier in our stay. Highly recommended!

Nice and cool spot but a bit hidden! Markus and his Crew are professional bartenders and really know every drink and liqour you could think of! Just tell them what you feel like and they transform it into a liquid dream!!!

Everything said before here is true. The owners are experts who go to great lengths to buy and showcase amazing spirits - not only whiskeys but bitters, gins, brandies and much more. Furthermore, they are genuinely interested in giving recommendations and introducing even newbies to great spirits.
If I lived in Zurich I would come here every Friday as a treat, and wouldn't run out of things to drink for decades.
