Food:
Le Dezaley: Amazing cheese fondue
Le Cedre: fantastic Lebanese
Restaurant Bauschänzlimore: Great outdoor views of lake and old town, walk-up counter means it's fast, rotisserie chicken is excellent. Often have live music and dancing (which you can skip).
Zeughauskeller: classic beer hall (indoors) with good schnitzel/sausage/etc.; better if you make a reservation
Don Leone: excellent pizza, close to the office
Hiltl: oldest vegetarian; good
Quai 61 (formerly Acqua Seerestaurant): Sheridan says it's good; did team dinner there and it was okay food with good views.
On Sundays, head to a train station, as many places are closed.
Brunch:
Babu's bakery & coffeehouse: good pancakes; get there right when it opens or have a reservation
Sprungli: on weekends they do a reasonable brunch; it's open even though Google Maps says the shop is closed
Dessert:
Confiserie Sprüngli: get Luxembourgerli (macarons); truffles are good too.
Laderach: chocolate
Bars that're good for a drink on the water on a nice summer evening:
Seebad Enge (also called Bade Enge?): right on the lake; good for dipping feet in water
Rimini: can dip your feet in the water while you sip beer; they also have reasonably priced (not so great) pizza; no view of the lake
Rote Fabrik: outdoors on the lake, very low-end
Barfussbar: we didn't actually get in; might be for an older crowd
Bars not on the water:
Tales: good cocktails
Old Crow: good cocktails
Atelier: good cocktails
El Lokal: outdoor tables
Fork & Bottle: in park; also have American-style food
