Book for 20:30 and the kitchen may stop taking orders before dessert.

Guide
Date night that doesn’t end early
Dinner runs long, then you want one more drink. Here’s how to plan an evening where nobody gets sent home at 22:00.
Where date nights go wrong
The second place is closed
Drinks after dinner only work if somewhere nearby is still open.
Weekends fill up
On Fridays and Saturdays the good tables go early. Book ahead if you can.
Your plan · 19:30–22:30
- Café Closed by then 08:00–19:00
- Restaurant Closes too early 11:30–22:00
- Bar Open all evening 17:00–00:30
- Bistro Open all evening 12:00–23:00
Open now? Three of these. Open for your whole plan? Two. Dinner Date only shows you those two.
Where to go
Zürich
The Niederdorf and the lakeside, with a walk along the Limmat between dinner and drinks.
Geneva
Carouge’s small streets, or the old town followed by a walk by the lake.
Basel
Dinner in the old town, then drinks along the Rhine in Kleinbasel.
Bern
The old town arcades, and the view from the Rosengarten.
Opening hours change. Dinner Date checks them for you.
