The new
Canvas Bar & Lounge

The redesigned Canvas Bar & Lounge seamlessly blends into the existing decor at the heart of the Dolder Grand and is a popular meeting place. Enjoy an avant-garde design that creates a warm, inviting atmosphere, while we serve you drinks and snacks, as well as home-made cakes, tarts and coffee.

Sit back and enjoy the atmosphere. In the evening, not only our DJ but also our bartenders mix classic cocktails and our signature drinks, such as «Dolder Negroni» or the «Grand Espresso Martini» – bar feeling guaranteed.

The drink was invented by a London bartender in 1983. The legend says that a young, upcoming supermodel asked the bartender to mix her a cocktail that would waken her up. This popular cocktail icon was reinterpreted by our bar team using a carefully prepared, in-house coffee liqueur and transformed into a gourmet version.

Matthieu Doucet has been Head Bartender at Canvas Bar & Lounge since January 2022 and his boundless creativity ensures cocktail creations that are unrivalled in terms of taste, texture and aromas. Born in France, he learnt his craft in London, where he began working as a bartender in 2016. This was followed by various stints in cocktail bars and gourmet restaurants. What drives him? Creating unforgettable memories. He succeeds in doing so, and not just with his customers. In 2023, the Canvas Bar was voted the best hotel bar in Switzerland.

The weekly live music acts at the Dolder Grand have become a firm fixture in Zurich’s music calendar. Come and enjoy the smooth sounds of our excellent special guest musicians.

The unique Dolder Torte created from shortcrust pastry, a crunchy layer, champagne cream, marzipan and chocolate is a true dessert icon.
