Coming to Zurich...oh yes!

Hi Dempsea28!

Welcome to Expat.com

Hi Dempsea, there are a few places where english speaking folks hang out: Bonnie Prince Charlie Pub, there are a couple of "Irish" pubs as well. but I am not aware that there is a homogenous expat community in zurich, at least not an expat club as such, although I think there is a "Ladies" club (which I hear is a bit elitarian). there may be groups catering for americans, canadians, british and others but it seems that they are mostly known to insiders, i.e. people who have been here for a long time. There is also an english book store in bahnhofstrasse and they may know of events, meetings, groups for english speakers.
But then, there may be somone in the forum who has more info and wants to correct my impression?? !!
Sorry dempsea, i'm probably not of much help.

Thanks Swissagain....

hi,

late but maybe you still need help.
The tv package with internet of UPC Basic is very fast and good. I have it and it costs 59 CHF per month.(also some english channels)
Bars for english are a lot. I say the Oliver Twist(irish and english pub) is the best. Good sports and beers.

ok if you want to know more or drink a beer just say

Greets

Thanks Tyrol....do you get in Oliver Twist's at all?

a) As a British person, I would be interested to know where the main Brit expat hangouts are in Zurich. For example, bars, restaurants even expat clubs.
