Café Knatter - Restaurant & Pension in Ückeritz

Disappointing, no cake left on Mother's Day in the afternoon, scary

Great location, good selection in the restaurant, a wonderful place to relax, especially when the weather is nice. And a must for a bike tour for Usedom vacationers and not only.

If the shop opens at 2 p.m. and runs out of apple strudel at 3:30 p.m., that's stupid. Otherwise very good location, pleasant atmosphere, and good service. Short waiting time because you are seated.

Very nice restaurant on the Achterwasser, great terrace with lots of sun, will come again

Location on the bay. Great restaurant. Always one of our favorite destinations on our bike tours on Usedom...

We were there for the first time and at first we didn't even know where we had to go to check in, which was very confusing. Since the restaurant was full and there was only someone there that we could talk to, we didn't have time at first. We stood there and were ignored, so you didn't really feel welcome. Our room itself was very nice and the view was a dream, but unfortunately it wasn't as clean as desired. There was a lot of black hair and dirt behind the bathroom door and there were crumbs on the floor throughout the room, which isn't great with a crawling baby. The food in the restaurant wasn't bad but expensive but the breakfast was very good 👍 And the location is super nice.

Delicious food but very expensive. Great ambience and view

Was expecting more based on word of mouth. There are definitely better ones.

Beautiful location with beautiful sunsets 🌞🌞🌞

My current favorite restaurant on Usedom, in a unique location with a wonderful view of the Achterwasser and especially on the terrace and at sunset it's just great! And so far we have never been disappointed with the food, certainly not cheap, but definitely tasty and beautifully presented. The only drawback is that you can't always get a spot, but then there are always the loungers right by the water 😊. I definitely always look forward to a visit…

We were guests at Café Knatter for 5 days in mid-April and are still thrilled! A great room with a priceless view, very good breakfast and an even better evening menu. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. A special thanks again to Heike for the valuable tips! The icing on the cake for us was that dogs are welcome - although the open staircase to the rooms was a challenge on the first day. We say thank you and would love to come back!

Nice location with great views from almost all places. The food and drink tastes very good, but unfortunately a bit expensive. Many thanks to the very friendly service staff

Today we spontaneously went to Café Knatter. Very nice atmosphere perfect location. A really nice place. Unfortunately, I wasn't impressed with the food at all - there's really room for improvement. An asparagus cream soup with lumps of flour and tons of breadcrumbs as an ingredient. A pudding-like consistency really bad.

Beautiful, clean and modern guesthouse. The location here right on the Achterwasser is simply fantastic. From here you can easily explore the island. The breakfast buffet leaves nothing to be desired and the food in the restaurant is of high quality and very tasty. Great value for money and absolutely recommended!

Very tasty food (osso buco, fish soup). Very friendly staff.

Visited for coffee and delicious cake. Highly recommended 😀 Thanks so much !!

Wir haben uns von den guten Bewertungen leiten lassen. Leider konnten wir diese bei den Speisen nicht bestätigen. Insbesondere der Spargel konnte überhaupt nicht überzeugen; hart, schlecht geschält, teilweise holzig. Und wenn sich schon mehrere Gäste beschwert haben, ist es um so unverständlicher, dass die Küche hier nicht reagiert. Selbst der dankenswerter Weise nachgereichte neue Spargel konnte nur teilweise überzeugen. Hier ist Luft nach oben.

This place is just absolutely beautiful. Food was very tasty 😋 Always my pleasure.

Here you can enjoy beautiful sunsets and eat delicious food

We were guided by the good reviews. Unfortunately we couldn't confirm this with the food. The asparagus in particular was not convincing at all; hard, poorly peeled, partly woody. And if several guests have already complained, it is all the more incomprehensible that the kitchen does not respond. Even the new asparagus that was thankfully provided later was only partially convincing. There is room for improvement here. The same has to be said about the price-performance ratio. We have eaten larger portions here at lower prices and of the same standard.

Unfortunately disappointing - this time neither the service nor the cuisine was good This time we were at Café Knattern with 6 adults and one child and had reserved a table at 6:30 p.m. Unfortunately, our main course didn't arrive until around 9 p.m. - which is far too late for dinner. Even more disappointing was that several dishes were changed without prior consultation: instead of the mashed potatoes ordered, triplets were served, and instead of a chicken schnitzel, a cordon bleu suddenly arrived. No information, no inquiry – simply changed without comment. I'm actually not a fan of negative reviews because we've always been satisfied so far. But this time, both the service and the food were unfortunately not worth the almost 250 euros. It's a shame - we hope things get better on our next visit.

The rooms are very lovingly furnished (everything has been thought of > refrigerator, clothes and towel hooks, storage space). The restaurant and guesthouse are beautifully decorated with flowers. There is also a small herb garden. For us, Cafè Knatter is a place for 100% well-being 😀😀😀! Thank you for the beautiful days.

We can't say anything about the rooms because we only visited the restaurant, even though we were only on Usedom for a few days. I think this says it all. Top address for body and soul, top service, great location and for people with dogs, your furry friends are very welcome.🙃👋👍

Great restaurant, very friendly, humane service, with a direct view of the backwater. Even if the sky is overcast and a sunset is not visible, the café/restaurant impresses with its charm and delicious, creative dishes as well as a seasonally adapted menu. Highly recommended!!!

Great location, especially at sunset, and very tasty food!

Highly recommended. Great selection of cakes, very nice service. Great view of the backwaters. A cool playground next door.

Highly recommended From the service to the food and the sunset ambience Awesome

We visited the restaurant and felt very comfortable. Coffee and ice cream sundaes 🍨 were very tasty, the staff was friendly and quick.

I don't want to go too far, but unfortunately that just wasn't the case. 1. The waiter was arrogant and stroppy. 2. There was over an hour between the starter and the main course 3. The food was overpriced and of poor quality, 4. We never felt welcome. Conclusion: Our waiter may have had a bad day and the kitchen couldn't handle the rush. At the end of the day, we are all just human. We're still not coming back. The four of us all agreed.

The food in the restaurant for our dinner was unfortunately very overpriced, considering the portion size and quality. Unfortunately, on our evening the service wasn't in a good mood either, so that as a guest you felt like you were a burden.

I went there twice in one week with my partner. It's upscale but it was an experience. Not only this unique view, the food was also really good. Since we were there before the season, we had the opportunity to have a chat with the waiters and we felt pure satisfaction. We were your last guests both days and will definitely come back. 🫶🏼

Great food.. Friendly staff.. Very nice ambience..

Restaurant very good. View unique. Extremely beautiful

Very nicely located on the backwaters. Very nice staff. Food tasty and hot. Always happy here. Recommendation.

Great food and great service. Also caters well for vegetarians. The view, especially at sundown, can be spectacular.

Yes, highly recommended. My wife thought the waiter was nice. I liked the food. Best regards

Great location, especially beautiful at sunset. Good food, super nice service.

Kontakt, Service via Email ( Reservierung ), Service im Restaurant, Speisen und Getränke, das Ambiente...einfach alles hat wunderbar gepasst👍👍👍wir haben am 25.12. 70ten Geburtstag gefeiert und alles war klasse, fettes Lob😎...

Great restaurant, nice staff, great location, food is delicious!!! I just didn't find the beer that tasty

We both had the matjes, simply fantastic, the staff was very friendly and attentive despite the tables being full. The dessert was also very tasty, especially capo verde, which is not often available in Germany.

Nice café with a view of the Achterwasser. Unfortunately only Bitburger beer. 😏 Regional beer would be better.

The view over the backwater is simply beautiful.

A superb place to relax. The rooms are actually great, but the mattresses weren't so great.

Absolutely recommended! Such a nice coffee and restaurant, I'm totally thrilled. Located directly on the Achterwasser in nature, with a very beautiful view. I was even able to observe sea eagles. The kitchen is great, that's why I give it 5 stars. The staff is extremely friendly and attentive! The furnishings are decorative and very comfortable.

Very tasty and we were able to enjoy the sun despite the wind

Very tasty cakes and nice atmosphere.

The Café Knatter is worth a visit. With a view of the lagoon it is a very nice restaurant and cafe. We enjoyed delicious cake and coffee/latte, with friendly service and moderate prices. We would love to come back<3

Fantastically beautiful restaurant, mega sunsets, incredibly great cuisine We were there with a family of 9 from Friday to Saturday, starting from breakfast, they have an angel there at the breakfast buffet, she is so attentive, friendly, funny, informative, child-friendly with exact knowledge of what the guests like, plus the great rooms, the kitchen, top Lica, the service staff in the evening pure of the world, attentive, professional, extremely funny Just thank you to everyone for this experience of being able to celebrate my mother's birthday with you Endlessly child-friendly!

A really great guesthouse. Everything is just right here. The location is unique, with a view of the backwaters, the breakfast buffet leaves nothing to be desired and the service is really great. The ambience is something special, everything is prepared with great attention to detail. We'll definitely be back.

Impressive restaurant on the Achterwasser, excellent service, delicious food and drinks, TOP value for money

We had a delicious meal in the restaurant.

The first time was great, fluffy waffle, soft, and cooked through! At our request, the red fruit compote and whipped cream were each served in separate cups (the child doesn't like it running all over the plate). The second time, we were unlucky. Even when we politely asked if it could be served separately, we were firmly told that it would be arranged in different places on a plate. And then it ran! Unfortunately, the waffle was extremely dry and very dark, which you could taste! When we asked the waiter if everything was okay, we pointed this out. He didn't see it that way. He made a strange face. He offered to bring a new waffle, but we declined! It wasn't busy... We suspect the waffles had only been heated briefly because they were already prepared! Not a single change to the final bill! No, not really friendly this time! Drinks were okay, cappuccino a bit small! Reservations recommended. (Unfortunately, I didn't take a photo of the very dark waffle; it had to be eaten as quickly as possible; the child wasn't hungry anymore.)

It was better many years ago. Super nicely located. Unfortunately price performance has decreased. I can't say anything about the hotel, we just went out to eat.

Super nice. Highly recommended. We'll be back.

A magical place with a very special ambience to relax, do sports and work. In addition to excellent service, a great location on the backwaters and cozy rooms, this place also impresses with the people who live and work here. Thank you again and again for the great encounters and conversations. We would absolutely love to come back.

A very cozy restaurant, rustic and quaint. The location right on the backwaters is a dream, the sunset is a real highlight. Service great

Einfach nur traumhaft. Die Begrüßung hat Poldi übernommen, was für ein süßer Hund, bester Mitarbeiter ever. Die Lage ist unschlagbar, direkt an der Ostsee, was will man mehr. Das Café /Restaurant ist toll gestaltet, wohlfühlen ist einfach Fakt. Super netter Service. Kleine aber sehr feine Speisekarte. Das Essen war top. Wir kommen definitiv wieder und werden auch ein paar Tage bleiben. Nur zu empfehlen 👍

We visit Café Knatter at least once a year. This year we went there with our dog for the first time in the afternoon and enjoyed it. Friendly service and a nice ambience.

We cannot rate the rooms. Haven't stayed there yet. Have been a guest in the café several times. This is always a great experience.

We had our small wedding celebration in Café Knatter with a stay of “Unfortunately” only 2 nights. All of our wishes were fulfilled lovingly and friendly. All of our guests were very satisfied. The kitchen had prepared lots of very tasty dishes and left nothing to be desired. That was really a highlight. We'll definitely be back! We would like to thank all employees and especially Mr. Künzle for the professional support.

Super nice environment, clean room, delicious breakfast, nice staff!

Was there for coffee, good crumble as an alternative to cake, selection of cakes reduced to 4 types. Service very friendly and accommodating. Great ambience and great view of the backwater. Beautiful meadow in front and children's playground nearby opposite. Use parking spaces directly in front of the house, do not do so 100m in advance for a fee.

Quality, cost and way of serving dishes - TOP LEVEL! Salmon fillet is brilliant!

I was a guest in the house for a few days. Super nice guesthouse, if you're lucky you even have rooms with a view of the backwaters. Large breakfast buffet and very nice staff.

Always great food, friendly service and a great view of the backwater!

If there were more stars I would give them all because: Recommended from A to Z without hesitation. Super friendly, great food, the rooms are wonderful and the location is fantastic. There is nothing, absolutely nothing, to complain about here. Chapeau 🫶🏻

Wow, what a great guesthouse...super nice staff, whether for breakfast in the morning or in the restaurant in the evening. We felt very comfortable in the tastefully furnished and super clean rooms. The food in the restaurant was absolutely delicious. I can absolutely recommend the cafe/pension!

Very friendly people, beautiful atmosphere and delicious food 👍🏼.

Looking for a nice place to watch the sunset, we spontaneously ended up here. The view of the backwater and the sunset are breathtakingly beautiful! The restaurant is absolutely recommended! Great ambience, friendly service and delicious, fantastic food! Maybe it's a bit too expensive, but otherwise everything is ok!

We ate there for the third time yesterday. The quality has not diminished. It tastes excellent. However, the price-performance ratio leaves more and more to be desired. Prices rise and quantities fall. A main course (gnocchi, for example) for €23 seems like a starter. Unfortunately, the menu has also been reduced significantly. We hope things get better again.

If the weather is bad, an insider tip with sunset, delicious tarte flambée with an interesting sweet variant with almonds and pears, plus hot sea buckthorn juice with rum. 👍

Great café/restaurant right on the Achterwasser... Beautiful ambience and very tasty dishes. I would like to be a guest here...

We were back in Usedom after a break of a few years. After the good experiences in the past, we were also a little curious as to whether we would experience this great atmosphere, the delicious food and the friendly team again. We can spontaneously say that everything has remained so excellent. In addition, the guest room was tastefully and practically expanded to include two rows of the old terrace. We will be guests here again on our next visit to Usedom.

Super nice atmosphere with friendly service and a beautiful view

Super friendly staff, fresh & delicious food in a cozy atmosphere. 👌🏻 Always worth a visit.🌟 Thank you

We were "only" there to eat, so we can't comment on the rooms

The location and the café are great, the Polish service staff are very friendly, but you shouldn't take rooms above the restaurant! - the music can be heard pounding all evening long, it's particularly bad in a closed society that doesn't end until after midnight! Table reservations for one person are not accepted.

After we've had a drink and calmed down, I still think it's a disgrace to offer something like that. I can't remember the last time we ate so badly. Especially not here on the island. The four of us were here for lunch today at 2:30 p.m., we had made a reservation and were really looking forward to it because of the many positive reviews. Beautiful table with a great view of the Loddiner Höft and Achterwasser as well as good and courteous service, we got that as expected, but then unfortunately it stops. The food was served within a few minutes of ordering. None of the four main courses corresponded to the menu. The pork fillet was firm and dry, and instead of dumplings, gnocchi was served without notice. The pasta with shrimp contained four (!) shrimps, and the pasta was floury and somewhat tasteless. The venison goulash was of very poor quality, only cartilage and tendons, not a single “good” piece of meat. Red cabbage was served with it, which firstly was at most lukewarm and secondly, despite the waitress's assurances, it was definitely not homemade but was very typical for wholesalers due to its consistency and sweet taste. All in all, there are simply too many negative points that make a recommendation absolutely impossible. Why aren't you honest with the guest? Why don't you calculate an appropriate sales price, here for the game goulash instead of €26.50, in my opinion it's definitely under €20 (that's already high for this quality), but then the guest knows what he's getting into or you reduce the menu and make an offer just the dishes that you can honestly support and would eat yourself, probably no meat dishes. Or you can only offer the main courses from, say, 5 p.m., because most of the afternoon guests who come when the restaurant opens at 2 p.m. only want coffee and cake anyway, and so the warm main courses obviously represent a rather compelling evil that you are not prepared to accept to offer high quality in small quantities. It should also be mentioned that when we answered the question about satisfaction, we were offered dessert and coffee on the house, which we politely declined. We already knew the café from an equally disappointing afternoon visit with certainly not homemade cake two years ago, and now we wanted to give it a second chance. I am sure, despite or perhaps because of my own consideration from the host's perspective, that I have judged this objectively and therefore cannot understand the many positive reviews. The whole thing just annoys me in terms of local tourism! It's a shame to offer such restaurants to guests, because you won't be able to make a living just from camping vacationers. And even there, a not insignificant number will refrain from visiting in advance due to the price level.

I'm very happy that my gut feeling led me away from the imperial baths to the Achterwasser and in particular to the very special "Pension Knatter"! This guesthouse impresses with its unique location! You can't be closer to the water and the most spectacular sunsets are free. Dogs are very welcome there and to be honest: we have never had such a nice room. 25 sqm of the extra class, consisting of 2 rooms and a high-quality shower room including a heat lamp in the shower and sooooo comfortable beds!!! We felt completely comfortable and slept wonderfully. The breakfast staff is very accommodating, there is nothing missing at breakfast and you can have excellent food in the restaurant in the evening. In the morning we were pampered by Mrs. Wegner and in the evening Bardek took excellent care of making sure we didn't miss anything. Luckily we still had fantastic weather in mid-October, so our conclusion is: great guesthouse, great location, great restaurant, great employees - everything done right! Thank you for a dream vacation!

After the renovation, the restaurant is even larger but also more comfortable. Beautiful view. Luckily we had reserved. We had pumpkin gnocchi, usually with meat, we ordered without meat - tip to the kitchen to put this on the menu as it was very tasty. We also had eel and fish soup - both delicious.

We have always felt very comfortable with you over the last few years. Unfortunately, until Friday October 18th, 2024, around 3 p.m. in the most beautiful sunny weather, the restaurant was 45% full and there were two waiters. When my friend politely asked one of her waiters if you could sit outside, she said no - they don't serve you there because when the door opens and closes it gets too cold in the restaurant. We offered to pay for the drinks straight away and take them outside ourselves, but we weren't allowed to do that either. To be honest, I work in the catering industry, I know the current situation, but this is not possible. That's why I unfortunately have to deduct a star for the service. Please train your staff for such situations. With best regards, M-Schmidt

We had dinner at Knatter with our camping friends. It was a very sociable evening. We all really enjoyed the food. The staff is very friendly and there is a relaxed atmosphere. We'll definitely be back next year. Many thanks to the entire team. Keep it up.

Fantastic place for sunsets by the water.

We visited the café today with three friends after we became curious about the many positive reviews. Unfortunately our expectations were not met. My coffee was very thin and not what I would have expected from a Café Crema given the price. A friend had ordered a pudding crumb cake that was advertised as homemade. Neither visually nor taste-wise, this cake seemed homemade - more like a finished product. We also tried a chocolate ice cream sundae that looked really nice, but the ice cream contained an unusually large number of ice crystals, which just shouldn't happen at that price. The positive aspect is the beautiful ambience and the wonderful view of the backwater, but unfortunately that's not enough for us to come back. We'd rather enjoy our next coffee somewhere else.

We ate at Knatter today and were very satisfied. Of course the prices are a little higher than “normal”, but you get a lot for it. 1A quality, friendly service, modern, warm atmosphere and an excellent view of the backwaters. For us, everything fits perfectly and creates a well-rounded picture. And honestly, because this came up in the comments. If you don't want to pay the euro for parking, you should probably go to McDonald's instead. Where else can you park for free in Ückeritz if there is a special location nearby?

… beautiful spot, delicious food and unbeatable hospitality … thx to the entire team, enjoyed a great evening … 🤩🤩🤩

Great view of the backwater, sunset and a delicious fish platter - just great!

We had dinner with the family and were very impressed. The view is unique, the food tastes fabulous. The staff are very nice and accommodating. We would love to come back.

Disappointing. Although the food was quite good, but overpriced, and some waiters were friendly, we won't be going there again. I was at Café Knatter with my daughter a few weeks ago and we wanted to sit at a table in the very beautiful room with a view of the water. Since there were many tables available there, this shouldn't have been a problem. However, in the next room we were seated at the "cat table", the absolute worst table in both dining rooms, right next to the passage, where it was narrow and uncomfortable and where all the waiters had to constantly run right past - even though many better tables were empty in both rooms . So I asked the presumed manager of the café again about the possibility of getting another seat. This was refused to us with the unfriendly statement that he decided on the seating arrangement of the guests. By the time we left the café after about 2 hours, the empty, supposedly reserved tables were unoccupied. We felt that it should be made clear to us that we were not welcome here as guests and we will continue to follow this message in the future. Addendum: We had reserved and it was afternoon, so not rush hour.

Parking for a fee in the in-house parking lot with a penalty of 45 euros for guests! That doesn't work at all. Until now, the parking lot has always been free. Another parking space 200 m away is also available for a fee from the municipality. Rip-off on all levels. Unfortunately, the trend is increasing on Usedom. I can happily do without jovial fitness recommendations.

Spontaneous dinner... seats were available. Service nice and quick... Food fresh and partly homemade, crumble dessert is a hit! Were satisfied...

What an amazing place! What an atmosphere! We visited Knatter three times during our time on Usedom. The quality of the food and drinks is very, very good (and has its price). The employees are very friendly and attentive, with one exception. It looked as if an employee had his nose very high up and that wasn't a nice feeling as a guest. Apart from that, it was just great there! We hope to come back next year. Thanks!

It's best to reserve a table in good time. But: The sunset on the Achterwasser is magical there and you can enjoy it with a drink on the lawn by the water, sitting in a deck chair or on benches. Always happy ☺️

Great location, nothing more positive. Service unprofessional, food an absolute disaster. Canned mushrooms are served instead of the promised chanterelles, the salmon is fried to death, pumpkin soup is made with carrots... the worst restaurant far and wide.

You can have a delicious meal and enjoy the sunset right there.

We were there in autumn 2023. Rooms and restaurant excellent, breakfast unbeatable. Booked a room again this fall. Location only 3/5 ✨️ because we are not water sports enthusiasts.

Was there to eat... great location right on the water... you can watch the water sports enthusiasts right from the winter garden... top service!... top price/performance!... the only drawback is that there are paid parking spaces... I can talk about the guesthouse Nothing to say, as I said, I was only there to eat

The obligatory Hugo at the start of your vacation is always delicious 😋

I give the star for the really great view you have. Otherwise we were served by a mushy waiter and while you expect delicious cake in a café, here you get a choice of 3 types of frozen cake, unfortunately the 4 type was not thawed. We have no recommendations for this café.

We just had dinner in the café... very tasty and the view of the kite surfers while we were eating was really great... it also happened to be very windy yesterday 😄
