Die kleine Fischkiste Restaurant in Cuxhaven

Very tasty restaurant! Great, fresh fish that was very well prepared.

If you want to eat delicious fish, this is the place for you. There are good portions at a reasonable price and it is absolutely delicious!!

Delicious food but a long wait until someone comes. It's best to reserve a table

There is nothing to complain about. The service and quality of the fish have been great for years! The herring roll and the fish cakes are and remain our favorite 😊❤️

Be sure to try the tartar sauce!

Very tasty and large selection of fish

Been here for the first time. Nice restaurant with delicious food. Service nice and friendly. Recommended.

Quality of fish and crabs very good. Good value for money. Service very nice.

I have never been so disappointed and annoyed with the staff at a restaurant. I have celiac disease (an autoimmune disease) and have to eat gluten-free. I wanted to eat a shrimp skewer with boiled potatoes. Unfortunately, the skewer should be fried in the same pan as other breaded fish. Using a clean pan seemed impossible. What a shame! I have never experienced such uncooperative and uncomprehending staff… Then I left without eating...

Delicious fish fries and fish soup Nice staff Great aquarium We'll be back

Very good meals Admiral plate great 👍 Daily recommendation 👍 Service top👍 Price performance absolutely realistic It's definitely worth going to the harbor. With a dog 🐕also welcome I'd love to come back on my next vacation 😊

Delicious food, but the waitresses are so rude and you have to wait about an hour for someone to take your order.

3 waitresses who were totally overwhelmed. Waiting over 30 minutes for a small beer. Rude service. 20 minutes waiting time for the bill. But the food was very tasty. I wouldn't visit again and wouldn't recommend it either.

We bought fried fish, it was the same as what you can buy frozen, so we were disappointed

For lunch on a Saturday with 7 adults and a 4-year-old child, we were lucky and managed to get a place even without a reservation. But you should definitely make a reservation - even at lunchtime. Unfortunately, our reservation request via email remained completely unanswered. Unfortunately, we only realized after we ordered that the fish sandwiches from the bistro could also be eaten in the restaurant. A note on the restaurant's menu would have been helpful for us. Ultimately, the small fish box remains a recommended place to go for a delicious fish dish. We'd love to come back!

Super fresh fish, all questions about the products were answered comprehensively, very informative service and reasonable prices

Here you can get delicious, fresh fish at absolutely affordable prices. Employees are super nice. Always a fish box 👍🏼

Very tasty fish soup, eaten again, just good, any time again 😊👍❤️

Very tasty food, nice people, great atmosphere, again at any time. We had the daily special. It was outstanding.

Always a good choice when it comes to fish or fish dishes. Both in the self-service area and in the bistro, always fresh, delicious food.

Delicious fish at a fair price!

Super tasty fish, highly recommended, friendly staff.

Very tasty food with a good price-performance ratio. A good address for fish lovers. My personal favorite are the herrings

Highly recommended, the food was extremely tasty, the service was great and the restaurant itself was beautifully decorated.

Freshly prepared and tastes delicious!

For us one of the best restaurants in Cuxhaven. All you can say is that everything is great. We have been spending our holidays in Cuxhaven for many years and go to this restaurant regularly. If you don't go, you've simply missed something.

As always, very competent and friendly staff in the fish shop 👍

Totally delicious food, large selection, generous portions, reasonable prices. The staff attentive and friendly, what more could you want?

Super tasty fish platter, nice atmosphere and very friendly service

Delicious breakfast, very nice conditions

We are here in the far north very often but have rarely eaten fish as good as we do here. Price/performance is absolutely ok - and you'll be full. As soon as a table became available, hey presto, it was occupied again. We were lucky to get a seat without a reservation and a short wait. Despite everything, the service staff were very friendly and attentive. This is no longer a given! Thanks to your whole team, we'd love to come back!

Waren in Cuxhaven und haben uns nach einem Fischrestaurant umgeguckt. Übers Netz auf dieses gestoßen. Richtig urig und verdammt gut besucht. Ist im Hafengebiet, nicht gerade schön gelegen, aber sonst alles toll. Viele verschiedene Fischgerichte. Habe die Fischsuppe sehr genossen. Angebotener Tagesfisch war gut, reichlich und preiswert. Gut das sie auch gutes lokales Bier anbieten.

We can only recommend the food. Service great. Prices like everywhere else. It wasn't the last time we were there.

As always, very tasty fish! 09/2024 The fish is still very tasty 😋 But if the waitress gossips and complains so loudly about the guests, it's a reason to try another restaurant. Too bad.

Very friendly welcome, the atmosphere is beautiful and lovingly designed. We would give 6 stars for the food if we could. A unique culinary delight!

An absolute must for fish lovers

Delicious redfish fillet eaten with fried potatoes. Gladly again.

Great food...rarely have I had so much fish on my plate...but the waitresses are really terribly unfriendly...unbelievable...

The fish platter was really delicious, with plenty of fresh fish. Very friendly service!

My long-time partner likes to eat 🐟 fish and poultry. I would happily recommend buying the 🐟 fish here!

We had never had such good fish soup before. We felt very comfortable with you. Price-performance ratio is absolutely top.

My opinion: It doesn't get any better! Here people are/eat properly. I like to visit this restaurant again and again. Freshly caught fish, extremely deliciously prepared. It was a MENU, just eaten during the day. The furthest journey is worth it!

Was soll man sagen, der Fisch war sehr lecker; die Tageskarte mit super Angeboten; die Bedienung überaus freundlich; immer einen Besuch wert.

Super leckeres Essen, freundliche Mitarbeiter. Restaurant ist gut besucht, Wartezeiten sind ok! Die Location ist groß, Ambiente schon. Kommen wieder!

We have been coming to Cuxhaven for many years and the first stop is the small fish box. Food is always great and the service is always great!!!!

The Admiralsplatte is a dream and the Limandes fillet beats everything. Plus Steuermann's amber from the barrel. What more do you want. In 2024 everything is still at its best

Arrived there late. We still got fish sandwiches there and were able to eat them in the attached bistro. The restaurant was open at a later date

A typical fish market restaurant in Cuxhaven. I ordered smoked salmon breakfast (10€) which included refillable coffee, milk/cream, two bread rolls, one boiled egg, and two large pieces of smoked salmon. The fish was super good I had not had for a long time. It was not salty and went very well with the light bread rolls. Really enjoyed my morning time there. Much recommended for anyone wanting to sample the taste of the North Sea.

For us the best fish restaurant ever. Nice staff and atmosphere. Excellent cuisine with very interesting daily specials and desserts.

Stopped here spontaneously. Whether salad, fish or burgers, good service and delicious food. Thank you.

Terrific! Everything was perfect! Arrived, waited briefly for the service to see if a table was available (some people are very bold and selfish and don't understand that this sort of thing is part of good upbringing) We were able to order quickly and received our delicious fish after a short wait. Yummy! Thank you very much for the service, you are great! We'd love to come back!

Very tasty fish dish Very friendly

A restaurant with a maritime flair. Nice and friendly service. Very tasty food. Fish dominates the memory card but other dishes can also be selected. Children's meals are also available.

Really great food! It's been a long time since I've had such good fish dishes. Service was friendly and courteous! Thanks for this great meal!

This was our second time here (last time a year ago) and we weren't disappointed again. Great fish dishes in a great atmosphere with great service staff. Particularly recommended: The Remoulate (an absolute poem)

Nach Einem Jahr wieder auf leckeres Essen in der "Kl. Fischkiste" gefreut. Und dann diese Enttäuschung. In der Speisekarte lobt man sich "Fleisch können wir auch " Nein, können Sie nicht. Weder Schweinemedaillons noch Hähnchenbrust, war dieser Koch in der Lage zu zubereiten. Beides war viel zu lange gebraten, also trocken. Im vorrigen Jahr waren die Champions in einer leckeren Rahmsoße dazu, dieses Mal die Champions etwas mit Fleischsaft und 3 Tropfen Soße. Der Beilagensalat, vorriges Jahr eine Augenweide. Verschiedene Salatsorten, ein separates Gläschen mit Dressing, köstlich. Dieses Jahr überwiegend Eisbergsalat mit Braunen Stellen, und Strunk. Ein Kleiner Klecks Dressing. Ist natürlich Eine günstige Salatvariante. Und dann zum stolzen Preis von 6,- Euro. Das im Laufe der MWST- Erhöhung, die Preise angezogen haben versteht man ja noch. Aber dann auch noch Qualitätseinbußen hinnehmen zu müssen, ist nicht in Ordnung.

Good food at fair prices and large portions. Always my pleasure.

This was the second time we've been there. The food was always very good. It didn't take long either. However, the service was not very fast in 2023 and 2024. "I'll be with you soon" when ordering felt like it took forever. You had to ask several times to pay. Unfortunately, one table also serves up to 4 people. The whole thing seems to be a bit confused. Since we have noticed it for two years now, as have friends who were there independently of us, and other guests were always slightly confused and slightly annoyed looking for waitresses, it seems that there is still some catching up to do here. Otherwise highly recommended!

Solid selection. Good food, nice, rustic atmosphere.

Food was very tasty. We stopped there in the late afternoon because the snack bar next door was already closed. We were not disappointed 👍🏻😊

A friend and I had lunch at the Fischkiste today. Great staff, large selection in all price ranges and beautifully prepared food. We'd love to come back!🦀🐟

We decided on this restaurant at a quarter to seven in the evening. When we called to make a reservation, we were told that there were enough seats available. That was also the case. The food, a fish dish and two meat dishes, was very attractively prepared and also very tasty. The only drawback: neither on the HP nor on the phone was it stated that the kitchen was only open until 7:30 p.m. This was only apparent on a board in front of the restaurant. We were lucky that we were there at 7:15 p.m., other guests after us were no longer so lucky.

Vanuit ons verblijf van B&B Cuxhaven was het amper twintig minuten wandelen naar dit restaurant. De zeer vriendelijk bediening geeft een vlotte service. Een mooi uitgebreide kaart aan visgerechten. Tijdens de zomer raad ik aan om een tafel buiten te nemen, in plaats van binnen. Binnen heerst er een zeer warme temperatuur. Hier mag wel airco voorzien worden. Bijkomend is het interieur niet bepaald om te blijven zitten. Een goed restaurant voor gezinnen, waar de kinderen in een ingerichte hoek kunnen spelen.

The ambience of the restaurant is quite okay. The following dishes were ordered: -1 mixed salad -1 boatswain's plate -1 redfish with remoulade and fried potatoes -1 large beer -1 large apple spritzer ———— at €66.20 A mixed salad was ordered as a starter, which was extremely small and quite expensive at €6.00. This was refined with sunflowers/pine nuts, which no longer had any bite or were not even crunchy. (Congratulations from the bag mix). However, when the main courses were served, I thought a children's plate would be placed in front of me. The different types of fish (redfish, limandes, plaice and pollack), of which very small portions were served, were relatively tasteless, only the plaice and the redfish could be guessed at. The “remoulade” tasted like finely pureed coleslaw salad (ready-made salad). The mini portion of fried potatoes was very bland and not really well fried. The portion of potato salad, which was also small, tasted like a refined ready-made salad. Sorry, but every fish snack bar/cart in and around Cuxhaven serves better fish or quality at much cheaper prices. In my opinion, the quality and quantity do not even begin to match in relation to the estimated price level. More appearance than his...

We've been there several times and it's always been delicious. However, we were in the sales room, where you order various smaller dishes that you bring to the table yourself. Fish goulash, fish cake with potato salad etc. all delicious, price ok. However, the small lemon soda costs 3.80 euros. Sorry, the whole box doesn't cost 3 euros in the drinks market........

Simply a must for Cuxhaven visitors. Delicious food in manageable quantities. Well prepared and served by very attentive staff. Would be happy again at any time and can only be recommended to lovers of maritime cuisine.

We had a really delicious meal! The fish was great and boneless.

Good conditions. Good selection of food (fish and a few meat dishes). Food super tasty. Portion could be a little larger

A nice fish restaurant with outdoor dining. Here you can eat and drink comfortably after a tour of the harbor.

Very tasty matjes in a roll and friendly service

On our bike tour HH-Cuxhaven-HH (230 km) we fortified ourselves here for the return journey. 😋 ☺️ Good cuisine, cozy atmosphere with attentive and polite service. Thank you 🙋‍♂️ 🍀 😊 The dishes were very well prepared and tasted good. For this quality, the price-performance ratio is completely ok and justified. If you're nearby and have an appetite, slow down! We will definitely do it again

Friendly service. Food tasted good. Price-performance was very good.

Everything very fresh and cheap

Simply delicious in 2024 too! Always great! We love it! We've been going here for years when we go to Cuxhaven. Great every time! Super delicious fish dishes! Great portions at fair prices. Very nice conditions. Child-friendly with a play area. In summer, the delicacies can also be enjoyed outdoors. Only recommended!

Very nice restaurant..Very nice service and above all the food was super tasty 👍👍

Mit dem Titel ist schon alles gesagt, aber ich muss ja 100 Zeichen abdrücken.... Essen war sehr gut. Der Service war überfordert. Sicher keine gelernten Fachkräfte, laufen im Lokal herum ohne was hin oder her zu tragen, wir mussten an den Tresen gehen um trotz vielfacher Aufforderung zahlen zu können... Keine Referenz...

Food was very tasty The service was very nice and accommodating.

Friendly service-oriented employees and extremely delicious food. Fish in all variations 🐋🐟🐬🐠🐡🦈

The guest room is modern and inviting. For children there is a nice play area and a saltwater aquarium that is worth seeing. The food, in our case, limandis with fried potatoes, was very good. Service was courteous. We can highly recommend the small fish box.

Bad service. Saturday evening at 7:40 p.m. was turned away with 9 people. Because they close at 8 p.m. They didn't even want to serve fish soup anymore. Adjust your opening hours on Google! Next time I'll be smarter and we'll go to dinner at 5:00 p.m. I'm really at a loss for words

Food is great here... especially for someone who likes fish.

Very nice staff, super tasty fish. Any time.

Eat delicious fresh fish and seafood

Daily dish plaice with chickpea salad: quite good; Price/performance is right. Service very friendly. Ambience a bit sober. overall good. 👍

Good fish cakes and good fish goulash.

Good food in the bistro for under 10 euros and a nice location for children to play

This time the visit was disappointing. Unfortunately, an hour before closing there was only a very limited offer and the quality was not as good as I knew it to be. A pity!

It's just as good as the neighbors, food is very good, friendly service, it's just like the others right next door because you don't have long transport routes, the prices could be a little cheaper than if you get the goods in Hanover or somewhere else in the country Shopping???! Otherwise everything is very good.

I go to Cuxhaven every year and for us it is a must to eat there.

Cheeky! Friday evening in season... Open until 9 p.m. and you are sent away at 7:15 p.m. because the kitchen is supposedly closed - the option to simply order a drink was not offered🤬 Not that the shop was empty and the operation wasn't worth it... At least hospitality is different

Simply amazing, very tasty fish. Fast service.

Delicious fish dishes, you can freely choose the side dishes to accompany the dishes. Fried potatoes, potato salad, fries, fried potatoes with bacon or boiled potatoes. Short waiting times and quick, friendly service staff. Very attentive. A rustic atmosphere, very appropriate. Helmsman's beer, very tasty!

2023: Lunch in the fish box. Dogs welcome!!😍🙏The service was prompt and friendly, the food was very tasty and a lot. Parking spaces in front of the door. 2024: Had a delicious meal again after arrival (11am). Everything fine

Nice sellers good fish a little more expensive

The fish sandwiches were OK. Unfortunately the rolls weren't that good (a bit hard), but there were plenty of toppings. The fish cakes were simply delicious.

Very good food, friendly service. Normal prices

Great fish restaurant with a large menu for fish lovers. Good service and fine food!

We like being here, the service is very friendly, the food is always great.

It was tasty but a bit too much for seniors! A smaller portion and a slightly lower price would be nice! It was very nice!

Very tasty food, great service and nice ambience. We ate once in the restaurant and once in the bistro during our vacation. We can highly recommend both.
