Nestled in the heart of Aarau, Zum Schützen is a Swiss cuisine establishment that offers a warm and welcoming ambiance. The interior design is classic Swiss, with wooden accents and cozy lighting that creates an intimate atmosphere. While not exactly cheap, the prices are fair for the quality of food and service provided. This fine dining spot is perfect for a romantic dinner or a business meeting.
Zum Schützen's menu boasts a variety of dishes made with locally sourced ingredients, including Wild Boar, Venison, and Veal Liver. Their vegetarian platter is also a must-try, as it is both inventive and delicious. The Kalbsleberli/veal liver with Salbei and Butter Rösti is a standout dish, perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor.
The drink menu offers a wide selection of wines, with Bözer Sauvignon Blanc and Stella Maris Pinot Noir being highly recommended. For those looking for something non-alcoholic, their soft drinks are also worth trying.
One of the special features of Zum Schützen is its outdoor terrace, perfect for al fresco dining on a warm summer evening. The service is impeccable, with friendly and attentive staff who go above and beyond to make your dining experience a memorable one.
Overall, Zum Schützen is an establishment that delivers on all fronts - great food, warm ambiance, and excellent service. It's no wonder that locals and visitors alike keep coming back for more.

We were again guests in the renown Gasthof zum Schützen in Aarau, hosted by the Schneider-Schmid family, this time celebrating the 100th birthday of a family member. As usual, all was perfect, from the vast room for 23 guests, the very fine cuisine (all menu courses were served hot and in time), the sweet dessert buffet, and the very attentive service personnel. Many thanks to the whole team! Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Service: 5
