Just the most wonderful cafe ever for introverts and music lovers! So many little books to sit in, cosy, warm, stylish and cool. The vinyl on tap is as great as the coffee! The Barista doubles as a DJ and has great taste in music. Right now I’m sitting and reading to Fleetwood Mac. What could get better?

What a delightful surprise! While wandering through Winterthur looking for a good cup of coffee, we stumbled upon Roxy Vinyl Cafe, and it turned out to be the best we have had in EU so far. The café has an eclectic and cool atmosphere that immediately draws you in. There’s something authentically local and unpretentious about the space that makes you want to settle in and stay awhile. The ambiance perfectly balances relaxed comfort with artistic flair. The coffee is where Roxy Vinyl shines. The coffee is exceptional – genuinely the best we’ve experienced throughout our entire European trip. Whether it’s their brewing technique, bean selection, or just the care they put into each cup, they’ve absolutely nailed it. If you’re a coffee enthusiast, this place is a must-visit. Service is friendly without being over-the-top – exactly what you want in a neighborhood coffee spot.

I found this cafe/bar while wandering around Winterhur. The lady serving was lovely and helpful. It’s a great place to sit and enjoy a beer (coffee to I would imagine given the other people there) whilst listening and to easy music.

I have been here more times than I can count, and I can proudly state it is without a doubt one of my favourite bars / cafes in winterthur by a long shot. Something about the atmosphere of this place has a very special place in my heart. It is very welcoming. You can have banter with the staff, there's a nice buzz, the lighting is lovely and the seats are plush. What is there not to love? Don't even get me started on the drinks. They have a large range of beverages that range from a classic espresso to a fancy cocktail. I usually find myself asking for the iced coffee late or homemade lemonade and which I might add - is superb. No matter what you're looking for, I promise you, you will be quenched of your thirst. What makes this cafe unique (and I wish more places were like this) is its vinyl collection. I'm a sucker for vinyls, and I must say the owner has some fantastic taste in music. So make sure to find some time to browse the vinyls. Overall, I can't recommend this place enough.
