Weinstube zum Roten Ochsen

$

Yet another local establishment with a beautiful frescoed facade, this one glows with a deep-red wood-hued interior that invites passersby into the warm little Weinstube. Inside, dark antiques surround a Kachelofen (tile stove), and candles glow on the tables. The menu mixes Swiss staples with Italian flavors—you'll find spaghetti arrabbiata alongside the traditional Wurst-Käse-Salat (sliced cervelat sausages and cheese cubes with onions drizzled with oil and vinegar dressing—it's tastier than it sounds). If you're tired of meat, there's a good selection of crisp salads as well.

Zuckerbäckerei Ermatinger's Café Späth

$
Small bakeries abound in Switzerland, but this one, run by Schaffhausen-based Ermatinger, offers such specialties as homemade pralines, fruit tortes, and other butter-laden confections. The locals also stop here for light snacks (the muesli is tasty), lunch (tomato-mozzarella sandwiches are the way to go), or a scoop of homemade ice cream.
