Eating without a booking in the centre
The Brown Cow is the pub of the Unique Hotel Post, on the Bahnhofstrasse, Zermatt's main street. It is the village's practical spot for something quick to eat: burgers, sandwiches, hot dogs, soups and salads. It does not take reservations, and everything on the menu, coffee included, can be ordered to take away. In a village where eating out is expensive, it is a way to have dinner without spending much or to take your dinner back to your apartment.
Opening hours
It opens every day from 9:00 until 2:00 in the morning. The kitchen serves from 10:00 to 22:00; after that it stays open as a bar.
If you want something more
The same hotel has two other restaurants: the Stübli, with Swiss cooking including fondue, raclette and hot-stone meat (Tuesday to Saturday, 18:00 to 23:00), and the Vivanda, Italian, with homemade pasta, wood-fired pizza and a charcoal grill (Thursday to Monday, 18:00 to 23:00). These you do book, on the hotel's website.
What to order: a burger or a soup; or order to take away and have dinner in your apartment.
