DOCK N°8 Café - Restaurant - Bar in Norden

We also reserved a table at 1:00 p.m. on November 30th and received a confirmation by email. We also came especially north from Hanover and were happy to eat there. And we also stood in front of a closed door. Very unfortunate...

We had for Saturday, November 30th. Ordered a table (12.30 p.m.) and received a reservation confirmation by email. Then we stood in front of closed doors. Closed society, they said. It was not found necessary to cancel us. What bad behavior towards guests, what bad style!! I read in the reviews that this has happened several times. NEVER AGAIN DOCK 8!!!!

We had dinner here for our wedding anniversary. 2 adults and a 4 year old. The staff was always friendly and very fond of children. The food was really great and requests were catered for. We will definitely be back and can highly recommend Dock 8!

We would like to thank Matthias and the crew from the dock very much. Starting with the ambience, a particularly buffet and the service. You all contributed to ensuring that our anniversary celebration will be unforgettable. Thanks!

Nice restaurant, excellent food.

We visited the restaurant as a couple as part of a Mexican buffet evening: - Structure of the buffet: very squat, food wasn't continually replenished. - Services: Used dishes were not cleared away, so we did it ourselves. - Drinks: We were told to order the first round of drinks immediately even though we hadn't received a card. For the second round of drinks we had to wait about 20 minutes for the staff to take it. Ambiance: Very nice design and interior on the occasion of the thematic evening.

Wir hatten die Spare ribs vom Mittagsangebot am Samstag für 14,90 Euro mit Pommes und Rotkrautsalat. Grosse Portion, gut geschmeckt. Leider war das Fleisch nur lauwarm was bei der Bewertung ein Stern gekostet hat. Der Service war gut, die Einrichtung ist ok.

Ambience great, service friendly but understaffed, price clearly too high. €35 is clearly too high for a “normal” buffet. The toppings were too slow and the waiting time for dessert was too long.

Docked in the dock again today. Today we had schnitzel, fried potatoes, a bread basket with aioli and the Hokkaido pumpkin soup was a must. Service is very attentive and friendly. Our lunch was delicious, a nice break from everyday life. Thanks to the Dock8 team!

Sehr leckeres Essen zu angemessenen Preisen im schönen Ambiente mit tollem Service! Da das Smutje leider nur noch Frühstück anbietet war es logisch heute im Dock zu speisen! Das Essen war sehr lecker, wir hatten einen Brotkorb mit Aioli zur Vorspeise, zum Hauptgang 2x das Brauhausschnitzel, dazu Lillet zum Special… Das Ambiente ist gemütlich und modern. Der Service sehr aufmerksam und professionell. Wir kommen im nächsten Jahr auf jeden Fall wieder!

Very good food, friendly service and a tastefully decorated restaurant.

Dock No8 is very comfortably furnished and I felt very comfortable. The food is very tasty and the service leaves nothing to be desired. Good atmosphere among the staff. I would love to come back the next time I visit the north.

Schöne Lokation, leckeres Essen, kinderfreundlich (um die Wartezeit zu verkürzen, gab es gleich was zum Malen), guter Service.

We were warmly greeted by a member of staff and at the beginning there was a welcome drink and an amusement. The service was very good, the wine was opened at the table. The food was good. Overall, a nice evening.

Very nice restaurant. Delicious food great ambience. Gladly again.

We ate at Dock No8 for the first time last night and immediately reserved a table for another evening. The food was well prepared and very tasty. The waiters were also friendly and attentive. We had a lovely evening and would love to come back.

Service vom Feinsten: freundlich, zugewandt und professionell. Ein sehr schönes Ambiente. Vorneweg gab es einen kleinen Aperitif und ein paar Oliven, sehr originell angerichtet und köstlich. Das Essen auf warmen Tellern serviert war ebenfalls absolut lecker. Das alles zu einem sehr ordentlichen Preis. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder.

Very nice restaurant with a great ambience. Great service and delicious food. We'd love to come back.

Very nice restaurant. Very friendly service. My husband had schnitzel, which was very good, sauce perfect. I had steak. But I couldn't eat almost a quarter. Too much fluff and sinew. This shouldn't happen with a steak. But it was still very tasty.

Really nice shop and excellent service, thank you Olli!

My family and I had a really great evening with fantastic food, great ambience and very attentive and friendly staff. If we're ever in the area again, we'll definitely come back! I'm a big fan of attention to detail and you can tell that someone has put some thought into the "theme". Great.

Wir sind Wiederholungstäter. Immer wieder eine klare Empfehlung. Karte regional und saisonal, es gibt immer wieder etwas Neues zu entdecken. Sehr gute Qualität, lecker, tolles Ambiente und top Service!

It was a very nice afternoon with great food and a super friendly team. We are very happy to be guests again 😀

Really great restaurant, excellent service and fun for everyone, we'll come back on our next holiday in East Frisia, there's still a lot on the menu to try out

Everything was great 5 stars for food, service and ambience are almost not enough. I can only recommend everyone to go there and enjoy everything.

Very friendly staff, very tasty food, although a bit expensive.

We went to this restaurant on vacation. If we asked, we were even able to bring our dogs to the table. The service was great and the food was excellent. The portions were perfectly balanced and were just enough to fill you up. At the end there was a nice conversation. All in all, a highly recommended restaurant and always worth a visit.

Quiet place and friendly service

Recommendation! Absolute insider tip, or probably not so secret anymore, given the number of guests, who all looked super happy. First you are warmly welcomed and accompanied to the table. A little tip, be sure to reserve, it makes things easier, as I've noticed. This is followed by an extensive menu, as well as a cocktail menu and house specialties. Everyone is guaranteed to find something for themselves here. For me it was supposed to be the bread basket for snacking and sharing. The whole thing was then followed with the beef pasta a la Dock. Absolutely a poem. By the way, I can only warmly recommend the cocktails here. Both the waiting times and the service are first class. Next time I'll have to try dessert too. If I had had a little more time, where the atmosphere was definitely inviting, a latte macchiato would probably have been the crowning conclusion to this wonderful evening. Next time. We'll definitely be back. Thank you Dock 8 for this great evening.

Really great restaurant, the food was incredibly tasty, the service was great. Water was brought straight away for our dog. The porridge for our baby was also made warm. Really great restaurant.

Cozy restaurant with a nice atmosphere... great service and delicious food🤤

Wir waren heute Abend zu zweit ganz spontan hier. Das Restaurant hat eine superschöne Atmosphäre, megaleckeres Essen und total nettes Personal. Wir wurden von Olli und einer Auszubildenen bedient. Beide sehr nett und absolut bemüht, uns einen netten Abend zu bereiten. Wir sind Norder und kommen immer wieder gerne vorbei. Angela und Holger Bloem

We were there last night to celebrate our wedding anniversary and it was a very nice evening. We had very friendly service. We were a bit hesitant about the prices at first, but the food we got justified every cent: the steak my wife had, cooked medium to perfection, the fries crispy and delicious; I had the shrimp pasta, which was beautifully 'al dente' (homemade), a lobster sauce with a wonderful basic flavor and the shrimp were fried to perfection. Only the side salad could have been a bit larger. When it came to desserts, my wife ordered the “build-your-own tiramisu” and realized that it wasn’t her thing. This was of course taken back, not charged and she got another dessert instead. I take my hat off to that, honestly. The evening was rounded off with two cocktails; a Pina Colada and a Long Island Ice Tea, both of which were great. An all around great evening; Thank you for that! :-)

We got married this week and had coffee & cake and dinner with a 3-course menu there. We were extremely satisfied, from the preparations to the food. The quality of the food was outstanding and the service couldn't have been better. Every wish is catered for here and the opportunity to have our free wedding ceremony take place in the city garden was so wonderful. No matter whether it was the decoration in the upper dock or in the city garden, you could feel in every detail that it was done with passion. We certainly won't be there for the last time and we can only recommend the dock to anyone who wants to feel completely at home. We would like to thank everyone involved again and see you soon

Great location, delicious food, friendly and nice service. My personal highlight: freshly tapped KÖPI and now it comes: KÖPI pillows - unfortunately not for sale! We'd love to come back! Thanks!

Mega load! Super nice employees, they try to make everything possible for you. Also very, very nice and still professional! Cocktails super tasty. Didn't try the food, but you can't say anything about the lunch menu for 9.90! We were definitely super excited and will be back 🥰

Great evening, with everything that goes with it. The service outstanding. Oli simply stands out. Great performance coupled with great ambience and food. Gladly again!

super nice atmosphere, friendly and attentive service and delicious drinks! A good place to be in the quiet north :)

Excellent! Exceeded all my expectations! From now on it will be constantly recommended and also sought out by me! Please keep it up!

We celebrated our wedding at Dock 8 in Norden. It was just good! The planning with Mr. Brake was super uncomplicated in advance. Food and drinks were also great. I would recommend everyone to celebrate their wedding here!

I had the beef pasta. The pasta and salad were good. However, in my opinion, the meat was mostly very tough. It seemed like cuttings from the ''real'' steaks.

There were a total of 5 people there. (A toddler) The furnishings and service are quite good, except for one younger lady who seemed a bit annoyed. The other waiter was very nice and accommodating, including dealing with our child. Also found to be very disturbing in our situation, with a small child, was the assigned table, which was large and equipped with a stool and bench. So none of us could sit properly. Certainly suitable for drinking cocktails, but not recommended for eating. The request to possibly get another table was also rejected because the restaurant was fully booked for the evening. Until then it's still understandable. We also each received a greeting from the kitchen and the bar, which were delicious. Unfortunately, when the main course arrived, we discovered that our child's food was already dried out and almost cold, which is why he didn't want to eat it. But our food was delicious. 4/5 stars

Sitting in the lounge today at Wild Berry Friday and enjoying the great atmosphere. We then spontaneously treated ourselves to the appetizer platter for two. Even though it was busy and busy, the service was excellent and very kind and attentive. Always happy 😊

Nice ambience, delicious food, good service

See friendly staff, delicious food. 😋

Extremely fast and friendly service, good food and a very pleasantly designed menu.

The visit to Doc N°8 can only be rated as great. The ambience, service and food are first class. The service is fast, friendly and humorous. The burgers are incredibly good. A special thanks to the “kitchen scoundrels” 👍

Wir wurden einen Tag vorher wieder AUSGELADEN....¡¡ Auf einmal eine geschlossene Gesellschaft . Sorry,aber das geht gar nicht

Great ambience, friendly service, reasonable prices, delicious food!

Came across the restaurant through a small town rally. Very nice, small restaurant. Very pleasant atmosphere, professional and friendly team. The food came within a reasonable wait - there were 4 of us there. Everything to the point, very tasty and lovingly prepared and served. The homemade iced tea is highly recommended. But it should definitely be reserved in advance. Stay as you are. We will definitely come back at the next opportunity.

We ate there on May 4, 2024. The service and the food were very tasty and I would happily recommend it to anyone

Delicious food, very nice service. Come back

Closed society today. The dock is my number one

Friendly service, excellent food, cozy atmosphere, we will be back and will recommend Dock 8 to everyone… ☺️🙃

Super friendly crew, delicious food and nice atmosphere. Very cool that you can rate the restaurant directly on site, the pieces of paper and pen can be found at every table!

Habe für 6 Personen das Frühstücksbuffet reserviert was auch vom Dock No. 8 bestätigt wurde doch dann standen wie vor verschlossener Tür. Ich finde es schon traurig das es nicht storniert wurde. Es war mein 60 Geburtstag und wollte mit meiner Familie meinen Geburtstag schön feiern. Das schlimme ist wir kamen aus NRW und hatten dort eine Ferienwohnung und total fremd in Norden

We stopped here at lunchtime based on a recommendation. It wasn't very crowded and the service was attentive, but probably not yet well-established. The cards were taken away but we didn't ask for our order. It was only accepted after we asked whether we could order. We waited over an hour for our food, and the tables next to us were already asking about their food. So nothing for those in a hurry. My husband's schnitzel was good, hence the 3 stars. My chicken curry was disappointing. The taste was good, but the small, quite thin piece of chicken was very dry and fibrous. I could only eat part of it. But I didn't want to complain because we had already waited so long and I was hungry. When asked when clearing away, I said this too. The waitress apologized and later offered us a drink on the house. I then politely declined and we paid, this time without a tip. I rarely do this, but I was pretty disappointed. Sorry, but we'll probably prefer to visit other restaurants nearby.

Chic atmosphere and the service was very friendly - unfortunately we went to the breakfast buffet today and were disappointed. Such good reviews here and we were guided by them - what can I say? -we arrived at 10:30am and there wasn't much going on. The buffet consisted of various... Cheeses, salami and another sausage, jam, scrambled eggs, matjes, tomato-mozzarella, bacon, fried eggplant, rolls & mini croissants, which were completely unlabeled, are not worth the money. The bacon wasn't tasty, the pancakes were tasteless. It was only refilled when asked but more “because you have to” it took too long. We hoped for better (more choice, refilling more often (especially when you see that it's empty) - if the buffet is already small, at least everything should be there, especially for this price!

We were there on March 21st. and on March 23rd. We ate at Dock No 8 and were very satisfied both times. Beforehand there was a small greeting from the kitchen and a greeting from the bar. On our first visit we had the appetizer platter for 2 with lots of small treats. On the second visit we shared the bread basket with aioli. Both were very good. The main courses we had on our first visit were the deer burger and the Mexican steak. On the second visit we had the Mexican steak and the shrimp pasta deluxe again. The main courses were also excellent, everything was very well seasoned and the meat was fried to perfection. The next time we're in the north we'll be happy to come back.

Wir waren schon häufiger hier. Es war immer wieder so gut und lecker, dass sich eine Stunde Anfahrt gelohnt hat. Dabei war egal, welches Gericht wir gewählt haben. Auch das Ambiente gefällt uns sehr gut. Aber alles hat seinen Preis. Für 4 Personen haben wir vor einigen Tagen €150 bezahlt. Das geht also nicht so oft. Aber das Besondere soll nicht zu häufig genommen werden, um besonders zu bleiben.

The food is of great quality Service very friendly Ambience very appealing

I went out to eat on my birthday and was very pleased with the great food and the friendly service. I chose Dock N° 8 because they have Labskaus on the menu. The fish soup and Labskaus were very good and tasty. The friendly staff was very attentive and helpful as I was traveling with my small dog. Thanks Gregor R.

Ich war vor 2 Jahren auch zum Frühstück bei Ihnen. Mehrmals zum essen. Damals war das TOP. Heute war ich sehr enttäuscht. Pro Person 19.90 Eur. Dabei nicht mal Saft. Lachs und Eier . Es war nicht liebevoll eingerichtet. Das was sie heute präsentiert haben , hätte nicht mal 5 Punkte bekommen. Heute fehlte die Liebe zum Beruf!

Unfortunately everything went wrong this evening, from forgetting to send information to the kitchen about our order to the burnt burger... That's really a pity !! Well, it can happen, we thought. We don't think there will be a next time.

Super great restaurant with great food and friendly service, highly recommended.

Went there for a nightcap. Service was unfortunately very inattentive and unfriendly. There wasn't much going on and there were at least three waiters in the restaurant. Unfortunately, no one ever came to our table without being asked. The seemingly inexperienced young lady who served us seemed unfriendly and overwhelmed. The cocktails were okay but nothing special. Unfortunately we weren't impressed by the visit.

We were there last night for the kale party with live music. It was a great evening, the food was delicious and the music was really great. The staff topped everything. Great team, great atmosphere

Wow, that was just brilliant. Perfect ambience. Perfect staff in handling and service. The food couldn't be better. We'll definitely be back in September. We wish our wonderful waitress and their great chef all the best for the baby. Kind regards, Horst Lucht

Wir waren gestern Abend da zur Grünkohl-Fete mit Livemusik. Es war ein toller Abend, das Essen sehr lecker und die Musik echt super. Das Personal hat alles getoppt. Tolles Team, tolles Ambiente.

Schönes Restaurant, das Essen ist auch gut. Ich finde die Portionen klein, und das Angebot der Speisen etwas einseitig. Viel neumodisches Zeug auf der Karte, viel Englisch, aber ein paar schöne Klassiker (Gulasch! Roulade! Und ganz normale Kleikartoffeln als Beilage) wären nicht schlecht. Das Dock 8 hat vor einiger Zeit das geschlossene (und super tolle) Smutje-Restaurant sozusagen mit übernommen, da sollte es auch dafür sorgen, dass die Gerichte von dort zumindest teilweise wieder angeboten werden.

Unfortunately I cannot agree with the good reviews for this restaurant. The food was ok, but nothing more. We had some bread to share with three dips that were advertised as “deluxe”. Sobering, as it was just six slices of the simplest baguette, neither warm nor crispy, with hummus, some aioli and a curry dip. Not bad, probably not homemade, but definitely not deluxe. (8.90 euros) The burger was good, the fries were ok, but almost cold. We found it quite cheeky that an extra euro was charged for a teaspoon of ketchup. Should it be included with a burger price of 18.90 euros, or is that asking too much? We then had a voucher for a small beer from our hotel. Here, too, there is little customer friendliness: it only applies to a beer, Cola, Fanta or Sprite. Non-alcoholic beer, small tonic water, unfortunately not possible. Therefore, the conclusion for the Dock8 is unfortunately not that great. Great location, rather below average performance. A pity.

Higher price range, very nice service

Very nice location, children are welcome!!!

I'd be happy to come to the dock. The food and service are excellent.

An equally passionate and professionally run restaurant. Tasteful in every respect probably describes it best. Hotels, etc. in the immediate vicinity. Recommended without restrictions.

Very tasty food, friendly service and a pleasant atmosphere - highly recommended!

Very nice of you. Thank you very much

Dock № 8 in the north invites you to a cozy evening. Great atmosphere and very friendly service. The meal was excellent. This was definitely not the last visit!

Ein fantastischer Brunch mit einer großen Vielfalt. Liebevoll angerichtet von freundlichen und fröhlichen Mitarbeitern! Da kann man einfach nur genießen in dieser tollen Atmosphäre!! Jederzeit gerne wieder!!! 👍

Wir hatten einen schönen Abend mit toller Musik und einem erstklassigen Service. Vielen Dank an das Team.

Lecker Frühstück, super Service und nettes Ambiente 👌

Sehr schönes, modernes und gemütliches Ambiente!

Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt und konnten unsere Familienfeier sehr genießen. Das Essen war vielfältig und super lecker. Top Gastgeber. Werden es gerne weiterempfehlen.

Super leckeres Frühstück und super nette Bedienung.

Hallo, ein mit Liebe gestaltetes Restaurant mit einem sehr guten Service. Wir waren auf einem Wochentag zum Frühstück da. Es gibt hochwertige Lebensmittel zur Auswahl und inkl. eines Heißgetränkes zu einem sehr fairen und günstigem Preis. Die Bedienung war sehr aufmerksam und zu Beginn hat der Chef persönlich das Buffet bzw. die besonderen Dinge einmal erklärt. Auch unser Hund wurde herzlich begrüßt und hat direkt ohne Nachfrage Wasser bekommen. Die Qualität des Essens war ebenfalls richtig gut und für ein kleines Frühstücksbuffet auch gute (aber kleine) Auswahl. Selbst gemachter Bacon, leckeres Rührei und viele Spezialitäten. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Tolles Frühstücksbuffet. Sehr zu empfehlen. Preis-Leistungsverhältnis top. Während der kompletten Frühstückszeit immer genug Auswahl an köstlichen Kleinigkeiten. So kommen auch diejenigen auf ihre Kosten, die lieber etwas später frühstücken. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder!

Moin Wir haben ein Fantastisches Frühstück vom Büffet genossen. Es blieb kein Wunsch offen und wir wurden von Symphatischen Menschen umsorgt. Auch Hunde sind ❤ Willkommen. Wir kommen gerne wieder

Haben spontan am Dienstag zu Abend gegessen. Waren mit 4 Personen auf Nordseetour. Essen sehr gut, Service perfekt, selbst der Koch fragte, ob alles i.O. sei. Sehr gutes junges Team, alle sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Beim nä Mal sehr gerne wieder.

Moin, Waren heute zum Frühstück im Dock N`8 ( Buffet) es gab alles was es braucht um ein schönen Tag zu starten .Alle waren sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend.Bis zum nächsten mal.

Liegt etwas versteckt in einer Seitenstraße, aber Dank Aufsteller in der Hauptstraße und TripAdvisor gefunden. Wir haben den Cheeseburger gegessen. Sehr lecker mit Pommes und Krautsalat. Das Interieur ist urgemütlich und trotzdem stylisch chic.

Hallo Leute, dieses Restaurant kann man nur empfehlen. Sehr hochwertige Produkte zu einem anständigen Preis und das beste es schmeckt Mega Gut! Die Beratung das Ambiente und das Personal sind einfach nur super. Wir waren das erste mal hier und hoffentlich nicht das letzte Mal! Vielen Dank an die Küche und das Personal.

Das Essen war hervorragend (Brauhausschnitzel und Garnelenpasta), schön angerichtet mit Bedacht (die Soße zum Schnitzel separat) und der Service herausragend. Wurde selten so freundlich und zuvorkommend bedient. Das Ambiente ist sehr schön und eine echte Überraschung in der Seitenstraße, da es von außen eher unscheinbar wirkt. Wir waren in der Nebensaison unter der Woche dort und haben direkt einen Tisch bekommen. Eine echte Empfehlung und falls wir mal wieder hier sind, kommen wir sicher wieder.

So eine tolle und gemütliche Atmosphäre. Kann ich nur empfehlen

Es war ein Abend in einem stilvollem Restaurant mit Wohlfühlambiente, ein perfekter Ort zum Entspannen und Seele baumeln lassen. Das Essen war köstlich, frisch mit regionalen Zutaten, ein wahrer Genuss für jeden Gaumen. Hier wird noch selbst gekocht! Mein Mann hatte das Labskaus, ein typisch ostfriesisches Gericht, toll interpretiert. Der Wein passte, ebenso wie das Schokoladensouffle als Nachtisch. Die Preise passten ebenso, alles stimmig. Vorschlag: Bei der Gestaltung der Terrasse ist noch Luft nach oben. Wir wünschen dem Team alles Gute, liebe Grüße von den Potsdamer Urlaubern.

Leckeres Essen und gemütliche und trotzdem moderne Atmosphäre. Gerne wieder.

Es war sehr lecker, allerdings für uns zu kleine Portionen, sowieso bei den hohen Preisen! Super war jedoch, dass wir ohne Probleme noch mehr Fritten bekommen haben. Der Service war gut. Das Ambiente ist toll, allerdings war die Musik nicht mein Geschmack und darum irgendwann nervig.

Total schönes Restaurant mit leckerem Essen und sehr freundlichem Personal.

Moin,waren zum Essen hier ,es war sehr Lecker,die Bedienung sehr Freundlich und das Restaurant ist echt Cool ausgestattet, man fühlt sich gleich wohl-wir kommen bestimmt noch einmal wieder. Die Preise sind dem Gerichten angemessen und auch genug von der Menge. Bis dann Hans-Jürgen

Gutes Essen zum recht guten Preis (mittags). Sehr nette Bedienung 🙋🏻‍♂️👍. Schöne Musik 🎶

Ich wusste nicht, dass Burger in einem Aufbackbrötchen serviert werden anstatt mit Burger Brötchen. Als ich nachgefragt habe ob das hier normal sei wusste die Bedienung nicht weiter. Ob wir zufrieden waren oder nicht hat da niemanden interessiert. Die Preise waren sehr hoch (15€ Aufwärts für einen Burger), da habe ich natürlich hohe Erwartungen. Hat leider nicht meine Erwartungen erfüllt, der Preis ist nicht angemessen. Ansonsten ein schönes Restaurant. Die guten Bewertungen über das Essen kann ich nicht nachvollziehen.
