Düne Strandbistro in Zinnowitz

I ordered a crêpe, which was also delicious, but the waitress was incredibly rude and yelled at me so disgustingly for no reason. Never again for that price and that kind of service!

Friendly staff, fast service and a wonderful beach view at fair prices—what more could you ask for?

The food is quite tasty, but the service is absolutely terrible. Everyone has a bad day sometimes—okay, but anyone who reacts irritably to guests and their own staff (in front of guests) every day is sadly out of place in the restaurant industry.

Typical beachfront stall, right on the beach, at the main entrance to the sea. Some of the food is overpriced, but it's still tasty.

Well, it's a thing with stars 🌟. Okay, we were at the restaurant on September 5, 2025, and were served by a friendly and pleasant employee. He also knew a good sense of humor. Price-performance ratio was actually okay, only the pasta with Arabiata for €14.90 was a bit too expensive. Everything tasted great, though. 5 out of us here 🌟. On September 6, 2025, we were at the snack bar. 3 employees, and they looked really listless. My wife ordered two things, and I ordered what was supposed to come with them. The guy with the baseball cap only took the fries 🍟 (€4.00 for a small bowl, and it wasn't even full. Too expensive) And the 3 Cokes. The other one wasn't ordered, so next try! He ordered a bratwurst, and before I could say anything else, he mentioned the price. I did get the Krakow sausage after all. The price for the two sausages was okay. Of the three, one was allowed to work. The nice thing was, the quieter I became, the more aggressive and loud Mr. Baseball became. With a baseball cap behind the counter?! We give the snack bar 0 stars for its customer service. In the evening, our granddaughter wanted a fried fish. There was different staff there, and the service was friendly here too. The fried fish and rolls were excellent. 7.50 euros. Opinions can be divided. We're happy to give this 5 stars 🌟. We only recommend the restaurant and the fish sandwiches. The owner of this restaurant should take a look at the reviews and replace the staff at the snack bar.

The best plaice with bacon and the fish cakes were absolutely divine! Thank you for the amazing food and superb service 👍🏻

Very unpleasant staff, rude, aggressive, even threatening. Zinnowitz, please re-advertise!! Currently not in an appropriate condition for a vacation rental. Threats from the staff that they "love" my mother and questions like whether I'm from Poland are just a small sample.

Absolutely not recommended! The waitress was completely overwhelmed with the order "2x fried fish sandwiches, only with remoulade, no salad, no onions, 1x full fried fish sandwich." They sent us away with the words "You won't get anything here, you're too complicated!" But I have to give it a star to post.

Basically fastfood placed in the heart of the beach. You can grab a bun w with variety of fishes or super overpriced crepes (5euro for 1 Nutella crepe 😂). Buns are okay for 6euro but nothings special really.

We've bought several fish sandwiches from this stand. They're delicious. The smoked salmon sandwiches have a lot of fish on them. They also serve delicious ice cream.

We stood at the entrance and were ignored! Okay, two waitresses were just carrying out food. There were still plenty of tables available! We then sat down at a table to signal: no, we didn't want to use the restroom. After another five minutes of ignorance, we got up and left. Another restaurant greeted us with kind words. They're happy to leave their money there 💰

Last year I would have given it 4 out of 5 stars. The ice cream was delicious and the service was friendly. Today I'm giving it 1 out of 5 because I didn't get a chance to try it this time. Even though half the tables were empty, we stood up to ask for a seat. However, two servers didn't acknowledge us. After waiting about 5 minutes and then sitting down at a table that didn't have a reservation, the staff still didn't notice us. Even though they served three tables in total and walked past us as if we were nothing. I personally thought that was a shame. But it's fine if this place doesn't want us as customers. The only thing that comes to mind is a saying I saw on a cup 10 minutes earlier: "Be like a seagull and ....... on it." And the Italian restaurant across the street welcomed us with open arms.

One evening, we ordered a portion of rice pudding with sugar and cinnamon to go (actually only available in the waitress area), but upon request, we were also able to get it from the crepe stand. Only €5. Thank you for that, my toddler was thrilled. Next door, we bought bratwurst from the grill (€4.50). It was very good. Afterward, we had ice cream at the ice cream stand (€2 per scoop). Finally, some tiramisu ice cream again, which is so rare. Everything we ate there was exceptionally good. The staff everywhere, in all three areas, were extremely friendly!!! Despite the crowds and stress. Wow.

Unfortunately, only cash payment was accepted. Couldn't eat ice cream. How backward one can be. Inflexible.

A really delicious fish sandwich :) The ice cream could be more filling in the cup or cone for the price; a €2 scoop is steep... Depending on the staff, the sandwich is sometimes more or less filled. I'm still satisfied.

Super Bistro We had beer, a punch, and two sundaes. These were customizable and very tasty. According to the menu, the ice cream is made in an environmentally friendly way on the same premises. Eating on the terrace costs extra, but the view is worth it. Update: We returned after a year to eat fish. The food was reasonably priced and very tasty. The waiter was able to answer our questions and recommend what would be best. There were several side dishes to choose from; we opted for fries, and for the fish, we had herring and pike-perch. The pike-perch came with a delicious horseradish cream sauce, which was perfectly matched. We'll be back on our next Usedom vacation. Thanks for the lovely evening by the sea. Further update: We returned after 2 years (after the first visit), and it was once again incredibly delicious and inexpensive, considering you have a direct view of the sea. The waiters are super attentive and quick, and polite despite the stress and crowds! 👍🏻

Very unfriendly staff. I wanted to buy water for my son in the evening during the wine festival. I had a €20 note and my debit card with me and was very rudely turned away, saying they only accepted small change and didn't accept cards. Given the prices and the crowds of people shopping here, I find this incomprehensible and unfriendly to customers.

A fish sandwich consists of much more than just a roll, fish, and a small lettuce leaf. Not recommended at all. Otherwise, good service...

Preconceptions: The restaurant closest to the beach will surely only serve fast food and be expensive, and the tattooed waitress will surely be unfriendly… The fact is: the service is extremely friendly, without seeming fake, and very fast and efficient. The food far exceeds expectations; certainly one of the best value options on the island.

My husband got a bratwurst, but unfortunately, it wasn't great, and I got a fried fish sandwich. The fried fish sandwich was so greasy that I burned my hand from the dripping fat, and I ended up throwing half of the fried fish away because it apparently wasn't cooked through. The bottom line is, I've been suffering from severe stomach pain ever since and can't eat anything. I'll never eat there again.

The food in this shop is truly delicious, nothing to complain about. Whether it's a crepe, fried fish, or mushroom pan. The service, however, is usually very bad-tempered. This contributes to a very negative atmosphere. A real shame!

We were here for the fourth time today. Great food, great service. We'd be happy to come back anytime.

I ordered a schnitzel with fries. It was disgusting. The schnitzel and fries weren't even close to cooked. The breading on the schnitzel was soggy. The service was also unfriendly. I don't recommend eating at this restaurant.

The food and service were good. So was the view. I can recommend it with a clear conscience.

7.90 for a crêpe. 7.90 for a fish sandwich, and then another €6 for cold fries isn't justified.

Not only did we feel very comfortable, but we were also not disappointed by the selection and quality! Top service!

Huge prices, small portions. No please, no thank you, no napkin.

The fish box was closed. So we opted for the Düne-Strandbistro. We weren't disappointed; the fried fish sandwich was absolutely delicious. They even added onions at our request. And the ambiance was fantastic, right on the beach in Zinnowitz.

Fried fish was tasty, but the service was bad

Very good location and friendly service. The food was also delicious. We were satisfied.

Very unfriendly service. We sat down to eat our ice cream cones and were told in an extremely unfriendly tone that we weren't allowed to sit on that side, even though almost all the seats were free.

Very unfriendly service, not recommended

Service was good but the fried fish was a disaster and the fish meatballs weren't great either, everything was a bit meh.

Unfortunately, the €4 portion of fries was far too small for the price, and you can get much better tasting ones elsewhere. You won't even come close to filling them. The service was also unfriendly.

The place is very well located, and the prices are reasonable. The ice cream is okay, but not like an Italian restaurant. The grilled sausage is good, and the crepe is also very tasty. The service is fast and coordinated, and the selection is more than sufficient for a quick snack.

We had fried fish, herring, and fish balls in a roll; they were the worst of our entire Usedom vacation. The fried fish looked like it had already been through the fryer twice, and the fish balls were tiny, the roll was twice as big, and both rolls were carelessly topped together. I couldn't finish my roll either, so I threw it away. After that, we walked about 250 meters further towards the park almost every day. There's a fish shop just before the park, which is much cheaper, better, and fresher. I really can't recommend the fish rolls from the Düne Strandbistro to anyone!

Fresh food, lots of fish. The location is perfect. The waitress is amazing! Extremely fast and always friendly. We were happy that she's still there in 2025.

I think that not accepting card payments is no longer appropriate in 2025.

One star is too many. Bread rolls that aren't baked all the way through. The fish meatballs taste of rancid oil. The music behind the counter is so loud that the staff can't hear our orders. The order came so quickly that it must have been ready. Unenthusiastic staff. The worst fish sandwiches we've ever had. We won't be back.

I ordered a takeaway for over €20 ice cream coffee and wanted to use the toilet. I was told that I had to go to the public toilet because they only have it for guests sitting on the terrace.

I ordered one fried fish that was baked, so the crust was inedible. One Bismarck roll was soggy and the fish was extremely sour, not to mention the salad. Both went in the bin. Not recommended.

The food is okay. Except for the dry cardboard rolls that come out of a box. We didn't go inside; maybe the people there are more motivated and friendly, but outside, the three of them aren't friendly at all and aren't motivated at all, as if they're doing detention. They don't even talk to each other. We didn't even get a "bye" in return... we won't go there again.

Super delicious herring fish sandwich! A mega recommendation :)

Worst fish sandwich (Bismarck herring) I've ever eaten. A dry, hard roll, 100g of onions, and the mini fish between the lettuce leaf wasn't fresh. And it was quite expensive. Never again...

The service was very friendly and the fish sandwiches were delicious 😋

We ordered two chocolate ice cream sundaes. An extremely unfriendly waitress brought them to us. The two sundaes contained a total of five different flavors of ice cream, each of which tasted identical. Visually, the ice cream flavors looked quite appealing in the display. Everything tasted simply sweet. Even the chocolate sauce and sprinkles had no chocolate flavor.

Today we had salmon sandwiches, and if you like, you can add horseradish to the whole thing. Of course, there's also ice cream and drinks.... PS: I don't recommend the fish cake because it's small and not fresh.

Ate a delicious freshly prepared pollock sandwich. Friendly service.

The herring rolls were okay. However, the herring could have been more crumbly, especially since it was sherry matjes. The rolls were freshly prepared.

Nice place right by the sea. Beer for 5 euros from a plastic cup was rather steep in price and the fish meatballs consisted mostly of potatoes. Matjes solid, fried herring too.

It was so tasty and the staff was so nice 👍

Good institution, I recommend!!!

Excellent food! Nice staff! I highly recommend!💪💪💪

Pleasant service and delicious presentation!

We had fish soup for 8 euros on the terrace. Super tasty, but I've also had a lot more fish in the soup. Baked fish rolls cost 9 euros on the terrace and 6.50 euros at the snack bar. Given the price difference, we'd rather get them outside. The service was good and you have a nice view of the promenade and the pier.

Very pleasant and a little different 👍

We wanted to grab a bite to eat there, but were cheekily lied to about the opening times. Staff in sweatpants is not possible!!!!!

Price yes / performance NO! If you're looking for dead bratwurst, bad fries and frozen fish meatballs of the worst quality - you've come to the right place!!! With friendly staff, absolutely not recommended!

Pretty unfriendly saleswomen. My fried fish sandwich didn't taste good, and my companions weren't impressed with their crepes either. All in all, pretty unloving, we wouldn't eat anything there anymore. And: Cash only, card payments are not possible.

Here you can get a delicious, freshly prepared fish sandwich. The service is friendly – ​​we are very satisfied! Thanks to the team!

Food is okay. Price adjusted to the location. Staff really tried hard and friendly… always felt like they were there. Unfortunately, a person is not really friendly.

Actually delicious, but unfortunately the roll was very flabby. Apparently it's been lying around for a while.

Unfortunately, the currywurst fries were completely tasteless and steak from the discount store had probably been on the grill all day. Too bad. The service was ok. The price so-so.

When we were told that our child was allergic to nuts, everything was immediately washed and cleaned separately - that was not only super nice, but it should be like that everywhere. Thank you very much 😊 for your understanding.

HARD TO BE SUPERBED IN THREENESS! Of course from October onwards the bistro will be the #1 place to go. But what I experienced today is cheeky and brazen. In addition to several food and drinks, we bought a fried fish sandwich for our two little girls. I asked the gentleman to share the roll once. Now comes: "No, that means more work for less money." He was serious! The ladies and gentlemen next to me were, like me, shocked by this statement. You pay a lot of money for ready meals... but that's a disgrace and anti-social! ! !

Tip top, very very nice and friendly service. Food was fresh, hot and very tasty. The tomato sauce in the children's menu was super delicious, the noodles were al dente and the quality was top. All in all, always happy. Thank you ♥️

Top service --> 3 extra requests for the noodles and they were all fulfilled. Small fries are sufficient and taste great. Solyanka also OK. Service was very nice despite the large crowds. Waiting time is also completely okay. Were here for the second time and will come again. Recommendation 👍

Whether it was fish rolls or crepes and sea buckthorn with a splash, it was always quick and delicious

First of all, it should be said that the location of the “dune” cannot be topped. In the beach chairs framed by plants you have a great view of the Baltic Sea. The ambience is simple but inviting for a bistro. The glass windbreak is particularly good in autumn. The only thing that isn't available is a roof, which would be an advantage, especially in damp, stormy weather. Therefore only 4 points. The service is super fast and friendly. “Almost” all wishes are fulfilled. The food is really highly recommended for a bistro, it is freshly prepared and the price-performance ratio is great. You can also take it with you if you wish. But even if you just want something to drink, you will receive friendly and courteous service. You should definitely try the sea buckthorn punch with sea buckthorn liqueur ;-). Overall, the “Dune” gets 5 points from me.

Nice location right on the beach

Smallest portion of fries I've ever seen. But I was able to refuse acceptance and got the money back. Anyway.

It's a bistro. Point. And very good for that. Best location on the pier. The food is always very good. The service is very quick, attentive, has a sense of humor and what you rarely have... been working here for a long time...we were here for the first time in 2021, we have known the service ever since. We can recommend the beach bistro. Please note that everything has become more expensive, the fish and dishes are fresh, the potato salad is homemade...

You can tell that it's made for the masses but you know that when you get in line, so no negative criticism about it. Baked fish and the fish cake are super tasty. Unfortunately the rolls aren't the best. And I don't know what it's like for most people, but there's no such thing as too little remolade. Would like a little more for the price :)

The most delicious fried fish roll!!!!!

We wanted to eat ice cream. When we asked for sorbet ice cream, the cashier looked at us questioningly. We explained her sorbet ice cream. She then recommended three varieties. After the ice cream we had endless stomach cramps because it wasn't dairy-free ice cream. Not recommended for vegans or vegetarians. A short briefing for the staff would be advisable. Taste of the ice cream was ok. Wouldn't get us another one.

The best years are over. Price performance and service simply don't match anymore.

It's a bistro and you shouldn't expect anything more. Price performance is top. Fish sandwiches and fries taste great and the price of everything else is cheaper than you're used to. Good location right in front of the pier and the beach (see picture).

Unfortunately, the fried fish wasn't such a hit. Our little one had fries which were delicious.

The bottle of Rostocker €4…proudly proud. Otherwise rather inferior products. The taste is just tolerable. The fried fish went reasonably well. However, 6€ is also quite proud.

We only had two crêpes and two coffees here... that was also ok in terms of taste and price... €15 in total... only the service seemed a bit annoyed and not very friendly...

You were rejected very unkindly.

Very unfriendly staff. Zero service. Once and never again!

I always enjoyed coming here on vacation to eat the delicious soft ice cream. The fish sandwiches were also very tasty 😋. The staff had always been very friendly and helpful with my orders.

Unfortunately the service was unfriendly. Totally overpriced fries for the quantity. A small handful for 4 euros.

Great location but unfriendly staff. You can make the fried fish roll tastier and more loving yourself

Where do you start, arrogance in the service, I felt like a troublemaker, order quickly and leave, I have to confirm the reviews from the "real" guests, unfriendly and annoyed. Bought punch and fish sandwiches, both bad, so I can't improve anything anymore. Matjes and fried herring each a slice smaller than the baked roll, a lettuce leaf which was also older, a bit more onion so that the fish roll looks like more. This is really annoying!! The staff, you have to say that too, are rather unfriendly, I can't say anything else, we are here every year and there is no improvement. We have learned from it and will not buy anything there again. And by the way, the view alone can't be the deciding factor.

Punch and fish sandwiches are very good.

Had lunch on site. The staff seemed very stressed and was very careful about all the rules (e.g. only eating here, not ordering yourself, etc.). Still friendly. Food was good and really okay for the price/performance ratio. Gladly again.

I didn't feel any friendliness. I find a small bottle of non-alcoholic beer to be too expensive at 4 euros. I would like not to come back.

Oh dear... We ate fried fish rolls and Krakauer and were very disappointed with the quality.

Great service, food was great with a view of the Baltic Sea and great weather, what more could you want

It's nice to sit and drink here, but the food is average and not worth the considerable price. However, the fish sandwiches at the kiosk were very tasty!

We were very satisfied. Nice service. It was a forgotten dish, but that didn't matter because the weather and the view were great... and we're on vacation. All dishes were delicious. The risotto with salmon is highly recommended.

We left immediately because of the unfriendly service.

Matjes rolls 4€ 😱😱😱.. In terms of taste, it's not worth a euro...there's better fish in the supermarket...you can save money

Super nice, quick staff. Food was very tasty and beautifully prepared. Can only be recommended. Thank you for the nice service!!!

Nie wieder. Nichts hausgemacht. Alles nur TK convinience ford. Wasser für den Hund gibt es aus Prinzip nicht. Zitat: "die Leute sollen sich gefälligst selbst um ihre Tiere kümmern und Napf und Wasser selbst mitbringen ".

6 euros for fried fish rolls with a lettuce leaf and a bit of remo that tasted totally like old fried fat, not worth the money at all.

Unfortunately the kitchen closes at 7 p.m., total closure at 8 p.m

Top stand with delicious food and good quality as well as a good location right on the pier Big recommendation
