Die kleine Fischkiste Restaurant in Cuxhaven

Very good food, another visit did not disappoint. The possibility of paying by card is an additional advantage

Delicious, simply delicious. I'd gladly go back.

For us, it's the go-to fish restaurant in Cuxhaven. We eat there every time we're in the area and have never been disappointed.

Restaurant sehr gut besucht; Reservierung ist ratsam. Essen war sehr lecker, auch wenn im Bierteig der Rotbarsch im Gegensatz zu früheren Besuchen etwas dürftig ausfiel. Bedienung schnell und freundlich-- für die Damen gab es viel zu tun- danke!

Super tasty 😋. A pleasure every time. The staff is very friendly and helpful

Our first route after arriving in Cuxhaven. The fish soup with 2 spoons :)), plus a herring roll for each. For us the best in Cuxhaven. 2 large herring fillets, finely diced onions (and not the thick rings that you get elsewhere). The soup is very rich and very tasty. On the day of departure we also buy smoked fish and fresh fish there to take home. It is packed with ice in a Styrofoam box that can be purchased there for a few euros.

Always top quality at fair prices.

The food is delicious and the staff are very friendly, you can go back again and again

Yes, haven't been there for a long time, but will be going back in the near future

Fresh fish and delicious fried fish in a roll.

Very tasty fish soup with lots of fish

Everything fits here. From Limandes fillet (fine fish from the North Sea) to pollack fillet and redfish fillet in beer batter. The salad is also great. We have to stop back to try the fish soup. It's also a really nice place to sit and the place is equipped with nice things that you can also buy as decorations etc. All in all, absolutely recommended. 5 stars! See for yourself.

The food was great, hake as a daily special was really great👍🏼However, the service was quite slow and preferred to clear tables instead of taking orders (even though several were still free), the table was not wiped down (we did it ourselves). We are used to everything better from our neighbors.

No longer recommended The beer batter coating could be compared to a soggy, soaked pancake....terrible. The service was nice until it came time to pay. Paying with a card is ok.....please add the tip into account is not possible. We only take tips in cash, said the lady... it's a shame, unfortunately we didn't have one. Then she became rude and couldn't get rid of us fast enough. But it's a shame for us never again.

Definitely, delicious food, nice ambience, nice staff

A great fish restaurant with great employees. Rich offer. My favorite is the plaice stuffed with salmon and crabs. A poem...mmmhhh Even after many more visits, I can only say it's great. Whenever we drive home, we stop beforehand and pick up some fresh fish.

Any time again......I've eaten fish better than I've eaten in a long time

Delicious fish, friendly service, high prices

Easily and conveniently reachable. Less than ten minutes walk from the station. Cozy rooms. Varied menu and very fresh fish. There is no dessert.

Wer Fisch mag sollte hier speisen. Durch Empfehlung im Guide unsere FEWO sind wir hier zum Mittagessen gelandet. Die Scholle in all ihren Variationen ist sehr zu empfehlen. Die Kinderportionen sind groß und lecker. Es gibt eine Kinderspielecke. Die Preise sind fair, geringe Wartezeit große Portion. Geht mal hin und überzeugt euch.

Perfect. Go and see for yourself. The plaice in all its variations is excellent. The prices are fair and there is a play area for children. The preparation was pretty quick.

We are thrilled because it is not that easy to eat out in winter, as many restaurants take a winter break to be fit for the coming season. Another point is that we have our dogs with us. Requested in the fish box so that we weren't sitting right in the middle and the dogs had room. The young man in service was super nice and very competent. The kitchen delivered very well and the restaurant was great and very cozy. We were completely satisfied. If you want to eat fish, this is the right place for you. We'll be back.

Yes, friendly service and delicious food

Delicious plaice Finkenwerder type

Delicious fish, very fresh and tasty side dishes too. Amazing service.

Food good, service good. Locally nicely decorated Some love, such as A lemon with the fish was missing. Otherwise nothing to complain about.

Nice fish fry kitchen. Food was delicious. Gladly again.

Delicious fresh fish, good selection, worth a visit

Sehr lecker Fisch gegessen immer wieder gerne wenn wir wieder nach cuxhaven kommen

Einmal "Kleine Fischkiste" immer "Kleine Fischkiste". Dafür fahren wir auch gerne 50 km (einfache Tour). Schnelles zuvorkommendes Personal und ein Superessen. Sind hier noch nie enttäuscht worden! Im Grunde wäre eine Namensänderung in "Spezial-Fischkiste" angebracht.

We have eaten here many times and have always been satisfied. I eat lemonade fillet every time because I can only get it here on the coast. It is served with a bowl of crabs, a very good remoulade sauce and a really tasty salad. This time there was a non-fish eater in our group who ordered chicken schnitzel. This dish consisted of small chicken schnitzels, a bowl of fries and nothing else. No vegetable side dish or sauce, let alone a salad. The sachet of ketchup was charged an additional €0.50, so the whole thing cost €19. Even taking into account the generally increased prices, this doesn't seem entirely appropriate for a rather spartan meal, especially in comparison with the really good fish plates. Conclusion: Fish lovers are probably in good hands here.

We now come to Cuxhaven a few times a year. On the last day we always buy our fresh fish to take away from the small fish box. First of all, of course, the obligatory fried fish with tartar sauce! Must be, it's also in the law. We are always served in a friendly and friendly manner, there is always a relaxed attitude and if we ask, the goods are put on ice. Can highly recommend the shop and also the restaurant

Delicious fish dishes and fish sandwiches

My wife was here every day....She's just a repeat offender.....SMILE Bedt Fish in Toun

Kurz vor Weihnachten noch einen Ausflug nach Cuxhaven gemacht und diesmal in der Kleinen Fischkiste zum Mittagessen eingekehrt. Labskaus und Scholle Finkenwerder Art mit Bratkartoffeln haben wir ausgewählt, dazu gab es jeweils einen Beilagensalat. Der Salat war vielfältig, mit verschiedenen Blattsalaten, Kirschtomaten, Radieschen, Mandarinen und einem sehr leckeren Joghurtdressing. Der Labskaus war würzig und die Spiegeleier perfekt (das Eigelb noch leicht flüssig), die Scholle so gut gegart, dass sie sich leicht von den Gräten lösen ließ, jedoch nicht seifig war. Bratkartoffeln und Scholle norddeutsch salzarm, aber dank der schönen Salz- und Pfeffermühlen auf dem Tisch leicht nachwürzbar. Der Tee ist von Tee Gschwendner und das Bier von Steuermanns, einer kleinen Bremerhavener Brauerei. Steuermanns gibt es nicht oft, das Bernstein und Schwarzbier sehr lecker. Die Linie zum Abschluss war eisgekühlt, wie es sich gehört. Fazit: absolut empfehlenswert, da der Service schnell und sehr norddeutsch-freundlich und das Essen einfach gut war.

class restaurant; Very good selection of fresh fish. You can eat in the attached bistro if you wish. Unfortunately it's a little expensive but you can do it once

Sehr gemütliches Lokal an der Fischmeile von Cuxhaven. Freundliche Bedienung, gute Fischauswahl und faire Preise. Wir waren im Frühjahr schon einmal dort und beide Male wurden wir nicht enttäuscht. Das Limandenfilet.ist sehr zu empfehlen. Und die Fischsuppe war klasse, reichlich Fisch !

Four of us went there for lunch this week. Pre-ordering even outside of the season is a must. Very attentive service. The main course took a little longer. Not for office breaks. Food was very tasty. But the price is quite ambitious. Sure, fish is expensive. But the price was also shocking, even for city dwellers, given the rather rustic (but it fits well) ambience.

Very tasty and fresh fish dishes. Especially the homemade tartar sauce - a must!

Always worth it. Delicious, friendly and reasonably priced.

Delicious fish, both for immediate consumption (bistro and restaurant) and to take away.

Today I found myself standing in front of a closed door for the second time after a long hike, even though the internet and website said it was open. There are no opening times listed on the door either. Apparently the operator doesn't care about his guests. This is not how you treat your guests. That was the last time. We can also spend our money elsewhere and there are plenty of alternatives. We also thought the measly plaice for 28 euros was brazen last time.

Food too expensive, portions manageable. No decoration or salad. It's a shame. Otherwise the food was delicious

A good menu and offers tasty fish

You can get the best herring here!

The salmon breakfast in the fish box is simply a must when staying in Cuxhaven. All other breakfast variations are of course also recommended.

In the evening I ordered the dish of the day: redfish fillet in beer batter with boiled potatoes, spinach, egg. The fish was cooked to perfection, boneless and extremely tasty! The spinach went perfectly with it. The beer selection is very large: there are all sorts of varieties from “ Steuermann’s “. The “Bernstein” is also highly recommended. The service is quick and very friendly. The ambience fits the name perfectly and invites you to linger.

In my opinion, there is the best fish cake (at least) in Cuxhaven

Always delicious and fresh. A must for every stay in Cuxhaven!

The Finkenwerder plaice was delicious, just a little too cooked and therefore lost some of its juiciness.

Highly recommended for eating fish and taking it with you.

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

Be sure to try the tartar sauce!

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 😊❤️

Very tasty and large selection of fish

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

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...

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

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.

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!

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

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 😊👍❤️

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.

gutes Essen, guter Service. Das Personal arbeitet in Stoßzeiten wie verrückt. Auch der Imbiss und Verkauf neben dem Restaurant ist empfehlenswert, immer frische Ware zu vernünftigen Preisen.

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

Super tasty fish, highly recommended, friendly staff.

Delicious fish at a fair price!

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

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.

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

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

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!

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

Delicious breakfast, very nice conditions

Super tasty fish platter, nice atmosphere and very friendly service

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!

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!

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

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!

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

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!!!!

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.
