What you should know

The setting

Right on Große Elbstraße, you sit in the front row at the harbour. Generous glass fronts open onto the Elbe, Dockland and passing container ships. The cosmopolitan interior, with warm wood, leather and finds gathered from around the world, blends harbour romance with worldly elegance – the terrace is a box seat on the water.

Drink pairing

Around 80 carefully chosen wines, mainly from Germany, France and Italy, accompany the food as naturally as the classic cocktails and creative house creations. The friendly, attentive service advises with great ease.

Insider tip

Be sure to book a table on the terrace or right by the window front. When container ships glide silently up the Elbe and creative seafood cooking is served alongside, Hamburg shows itself at its finest.
