Indoor golf with a bar and food: which venues have a lounge, bistro, restaurant and apéro
For half of the indoor venues the listing says something about food and drink. The tables name bars, restaurants and group offers with name, town and canton.
Yes, indoor golf with a bar and food exists in Switzerland, but what is on offer ranges from a staffed restaurant to a fridge in the lounge. For 55 of the 110 indoor venues in the directory the listing says something about food or drink: 22 name a bar, 16 a restaurant and 13 catering (as of 2 October 2026). This post sorts the venues by the kind of offer, with names and towns, and tells you what to clarify before you book.
How many venues have a bar, a restaurant or snacks?
The field for food and drink knows five entries. A venue can carry several, which is why the numbers add up to more than 55.
| Entry in the listing | Indoor venues out of 110 |
|---|---|
| Snacks | 27 |
| Bar | 22 |
| Restaurant | 16 |
| Coffee and tea | 15 |
| Catering | 13 |
An empty field does not mean there is nothing: for the other 55 venues the listing simply says nothing about it. The names below come from the descriptions of the listings that name the offer.
In which cantons are there venues with a bar or a restaurant?
The table shows the cantons in which at least three venues have an entry. In Vaud 6 of 11 venues name a bar, but none names a restaurant. In Bern it is almost the other way round: 4 of 8 name a restaurant, 2 a bar. The canton of Zurich has 25 indoor venues, 12 of them with an entry. In 7 of the 21 cantons with an indoor venue, no venue has an entry.
| Canton | Indoor venues | with an entry | of which bar | of which restaurant |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zurich | 25 | 12 | 4 | 2 |
| Vaud | 11 | 7 | 6 | 0 |
| Aargau | 9 | 6 | 1 | 0 |
| Valais | 11 | 5 | 3 | 0 |
| Bern | 8 | 5 | 2 | 4 |
| St Gallen | 8 | 5 | 1 | 2 |
| Lucerne | 5 | 4 | 1 | 2 |
| Graubünden | 9 | 3 | 2 | 1 |
| Zug | 3 | 3 | 0 | 1 |
Bar and lounge: where do you get a drink at the simulator?
These venues name a bar or a bar lounge in their description. It is not staffed everywhere: in Klosters it is a small self-service bar. Golf Indoor La Vallée writes on its website of a space with a pool table and a bar (golfvallee.ch), Impact Golf names a bar and relaxation area on site (impact-golf.ch), and Matterland in Zermatt describes a small bar with a lounge area (matterland.ch).
| Canton | Venue and town | What the listing says |
|---|---|---|
| Graubünden | Rolf's Indoorgolf, Klosters | small self-service bar |
| Graubünden | The Golfer's AG, Indoor Golf, Malans | bar and lounge area at the fitting centre |
| Vaud | Let's Golf, Bussigny | bar with snacks |
| Vaud | Golf Indoor La Vallée, Le Brassus | bar and pool table |
| Vaud | Indoor Golf Performance, Payerne | lounge bar |
| Vaud | TEE OFF Golf Indoor Premium, Seigneux | lounge area with a bar |
| Valais | Impact Golf, Collombey-Muraz | bar with drinks and small snacks |
| Valais | Matterland Indoor-Golf, Zermatt | small bar with a lounge area |
| Zurich | Golfflix, Adliswil | bar lounge with drinks, coffee and snacks, paid for with TWINT |
| Zurich | Padelarena, Wädenswil | sports bar with pizza and snacks |
| Zurich | elPadel Social Club, Winterthur | sports bar and café, indoor golf during their hours |
The name "golf lounge" says little about the offer. The Swiss Golf Lounge Gossau has a lounge with snack and drinks machines, and the FUN4YOU Golf Lounge in Baden sits in a leisure centre with a bistro. For a golf lounge in Switzerland, read the listing, not the name.
Restaurant or bistro: where do you eat after your hour?
RUFF Bern lists a bistro on its website (ruffgolf.eu), and Lifestyle Golf Chur invites you to its lounge and restaurant area all year round (lifestyle-golf.ch). Not every restaurant belongs to the simulator venue: at Golfpark Moossee and Golfpark Waldkirch it is a public restaurant on the grounds. At CMFG Arena, sports ZUGERLAND and Union Sport in Münchenstein the simulator stands in a sports centre that includes a restaurant or bistro.
| Canton | Venue and town | What the listing says |
|---|---|---|
| Aargau | FUN4YOU Golf Lounge, Baden | leisure centre with a bistro |
| Basel-Landschaft | Union Sport, Münchenstein | complex with tennis and padel courts and a bistro |
| Bern | RUFF Bern, Ittigen | lounge with a bistro |
| Bern | Golfpark Moossee, Münchenbuchsee | public restaurant on the grounds |
| Bern | NextGolf, Pieterlen | restaurant Thai Pieterlen on the grounds |
| Geneva | L'Indoor Geneva, Carouge | bar with a restaurant |
| Graubünden | Lifestyle Golf, Chur | restaurant and bar |
| Graubünden | Sporthalle Färbi, Davos Platz | bistro belongs to the hall |
| Lucerne | RUFF Luzern, Kriens | lounge with a bistro |

| Zug | sports ZUGERLAND, Cham | sports centre with a restaurant |
| Zurich | Sportcenter Schumacher, Dübendorf | centre with a bistro |
| Zurich | Winterberg Golf & Academy, Winterberg | restaurant |
Apéro, food and catering: what do venues offer for groups?
For a group it matters whether someone supplies the food and how many people fit into the room. The listings say the following:
| Canton | Venue and town | What the listing says for groups |
|---|---|---|
| Vaud | Golf Indoor Broye, Payerne | introduction with a pro, on request with an apéro or a meal in the wine bar W |
| Vaud | Golf Indoor La Vallée, Le Brassus | venue can be booked privately for up to 30 people, on request with a drinks package and an apéro |
| Basel-Stadt | Birdie Amigos Golf Club, Basel | team events with an apéro for 15 to 25 people |
| Neuchâtel | Bogey Club, Marin-Epagnier | can be booked privately for company events and team building with up to 50 people, marked with catering in the entry |
| Zug | Indoorgolf Rotkreuz, Rotkreuz | team events for groups of up to 20 people, marked with catering in the entry |
| Valais | Matterland Indoor-Golf, Zermatt | team events on request, small bar, marked with catering in the entry |
| Graubünden | Lifestyle Golf, Chur | restaurant and bar, rooms for events of up to 250 people |
Golf Indoor Broye names prices on its website (golfindoorbroye.ch, read on 2 October 2026): the introduction costs CHF 30 per person for 7 to 16 people. On request the apéro adds CHF 15 per person or the meal CHF 30 per person. From 17 people, or for special catering requests, the venue makes an offer on request.
An example with ten people: the introduction costs CHF 300, the apéro on top CHF 150, together CHF 450, which is CHF 45 per person. With the meal instead of the apéro it is CHF 600, or CHF 60 per person. Whether drinks are included is not stated on the page, so ask.
When nobody serves: machine, fridge, minibar
Some venues can be used without staff. There the listings name machines, fridges and minibars:
- Swiss Golf Lounge Gossau: snack and drinks machines, open around the clock, additionally staffed at fixed times in winter
- Birdie Golf Toggenburg: lounge with a coffee, drinks and snack machine
- Golf Indoor Moutier: cafeteria with a drinks machine
- Indoorgolf Rotkreuz: refreshment corner with a fridge, coffee and snacks
- Indoorgolf Sursee: refreshment corner with drinks, coffee and snacks
- All Out Golf: snacks and drinks from the fridge in the lounge
- Earlybirdie Aarau: minibar
- Earlybirdie Chur: minibar and coffee machine
- Golf Factory Aarburg: drinks and snacks in the TrackMan area
Where a bar is staffed, it can limit your playing time. Golf Indoor Broye writes that hourly booking without a membership is only possible during the opening hours of the wine bar W (golfindoorbroye.ch), and at the elPadel Social Club in Winterthur indoor golf runs during the hours of the sports bar and café. At studiogolf in Zurich, food and drinks you bring are allowed in the lounge areas, and soft drinks are available on site. For the other venues the listing says nothing, so ask before you book. When which venue is open you can see under open now and in Indoor golf: when is it open.
What this means for you
- For two: pick a venue near you from the bar table and ask whether the bar is staffed at your time. Ideas for the evening are in Indoor golf as a date.
- With a group: ask for the price per person and the maximum number, as Golf Indoor Broye and Golf Indoor La Vallée state them. A company event at the golf simulator shows the flow, the group size and the cost per person, Stag and hen parties at the golf simulator and Christmas parties at the golf simulator cover the other occasions.
- With children: check beforehand whether there is a bistro or a machine in the building. What suits families and rainy days is in Indoor mini golf or golf simulator.
- With Topgolf in mind: Topgolf in Switzerland says what comes closest to it.
How to find the venue with a bar or food
On the map you see the venues by canton, and the golf simulator near me page shows the nearest one from your location. For occasions with food, company events and team building, golf simulator events is the starting point. Open the venue's listing and check the field for food and drink, but for groups ask the venue directly, because the listings show the state of 2 October 2026.
Frequently asked questions

Yes. In the directory 22 of the 110 indoor venues name a bar and 16 a restaurant (as of 2 October 2026). In Vaud it is 6 of 11 venues with a bar, for example Let's Golf in Bussigny and Golf Indoor La Vallée in Le Brassus.
