Fischbörse Cuxhaven in Cuxhaven

Very tasty food for a very fair price. The ambiance probably hasn't changed in the last 50 years, but it's not bad.

Always very, very tasty – and has been for many years!

We had Limandes fillet with fried potatoes and homemade remoulade. Fish couldn't be prepared better. Succulent and cooked to perfection. It was a very good meal. The atmosphere is reminiscent of a fishery, with lots of decor, and is well worth a visit.

Highly recommended! Great fish restaurant and fish shop, fresh fish every day, large selection, also to take away. Everything available, from smoked fish, canned fish, fish sandwiches, crabs to fish platters. Very friendly staff and step-free access.

Really great quaint shop Fish is freshly prepared! Great taste!!!

Very good fish dishes, particularly recommended: Matjes rolls

The food was good, the service was very friendly and accommodating. The outdoor seating is extremely uncomfortable for eating. Otherwise definitely recommended.

Nice restaurant with lots of great fish dishes. Great service and absolutely reasonable prices.

Yes, I can highly recommend the restaurant, we have been there several times and the food has always been delicious👍👍👍👍👍.

Very tasty food and friendly service

We actually come in every time we are in Cuxhaven to get fresh fish. The prices are still ok. and I often take a few “bent cans” with me as a supply.

Authentic, regional, large selection of fish. Simply delicious

Clear recommendation when it comes to fish. We spontaneously ordered a stremella salmon roll and were perfectly served and advised by the nice and friendly service. Only the seating on the street isn't perfect but it's better than nothing :-)

Very tasty and cheap. Service very friendly and attentive. Fish fresh and prepared to perfection. Simply presented, but freshness and price speak for themselves.

We only ate a fish sandwich, which was very tasty.

Every time I'm in Cuxhaven, three times a year, I get our fish sandwiches here. The Bismark herrings are super fresh and the fried fish is also freshly fried. The potato salads are also to die for. At the counter you can find everything fishy and your heart desires. The waitresses are consistently nice and accommodating. We always pick up food from street vendors, but you can also make yourself comfortable outdoors or eat in a restaurant. Great ambience, typical North German friendliness!

Lots of small fish shops, highly recommended!

Very tasty and also plentiful. Nice service.

Very, very tasty, rustic atmosphere, great service. Will be there again tomorrow. Eating sole 😉

Nun, ich hatte einen privaten Termin in Cuxhaven und noch etwa 2 Stunden Zeit bis dato. Es war etwa 11.30 Uhr und das Frühstück lag schon einige Stunden zurück, so kam der kleine Hunger zur Mittagszeit auf. Da das Lokal in Bahnhofsnähe zu Fuß gut zu erreichen ist, schien es mir geeignet für eine Probe der warmen Küche. Die Küche in meiner Heimat dem Nordharz ist traditionell sehr wildlastig und wenn ich schon mal an der Nordseeküste bin, dann sollen es auch Seefischgerichte sein, die bei mir daheim doch eher selten serviert werden. Das Wetter war frühlingshaft sonnig und lud zum Freisitz vor dem Restaurant ein. Kurz innen Bescheid gegeben, nahm ich draußen Platz, wie nach mir auch noch 4 andere Gäste. Prompt wurde die Karte geliefert und es konnte losgehen. Sehr schnell viel meine Entscheidung auf den "Kapitänsteller" (3 hochwertige Fischfilets in der Pfanne gebraten mit Bratkartoffeln und Salatbeilage) dazu bestellte ich noch eine Portion Remouladensauce extra und einen Softdrink, da ich später noch Autofahren musste. Was soll ich sagen, die Fischfilets waren Kabeljau, Rotbarsch und Lachs und die Bratkartoffeln, obwohl aus vorgekochten Kartoffeln gebraten (Gastronomie eben), sehr schmackhaft. Ich bin durchaus ein Schwergewicht und war sehr gesättigt. Alles richtig gemacht. Ich hielt mich etwa eine Stunde an dem Freisitz dieses Lokals auf, aber wer beobachtet hat, was in dieser Stunde dort an Essen verkauft wurde, der wird guten Gewissens wieder kommen. Viele Einheimische Arbeitnehmer verbringen dort gern ihre Mittagspause. Das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis war stimmig, das Servicepersonal arbeitete zügig und zuvorkommend, so dass ich der Rechnung gern etwa 4 €uro Tipp hinzufügte. Von Montag bis Donnerstag gibt das Lokal seine Öffnungszeit von 11.00 bis 17.00 Uhr an und wem es in dieser Zeit nach lecker Seefisch gelüstet, sollte dort unbedingt einkehren. Wenn ich das nächste Mal in Cuxhaven bin, komme ich sehr gern wieder!

In the middle of the old fishing port in the former fish auction halls is the Fish Exchange, a maritime fish restaurant + fish exchange, i.e. trade. The interior takes you back years and reminds you of a quaint sailor's bar. The fish tasted very tasty and, above all, fresh. Very nice staff, great decor and a huge selection of fish dishes. I can therefore only warmly recommend the location for fish lovers. 👍

It doesn't get any fresher than this! The Fischbörse not only has a restaurant, but also a fish counter – and there I got a Bismarck roll that absolutely impressed me. Perfectly marinated fish, crispy onions – so good you don't even miss the sauce. Simply pure enjoyment!

Delicious, delicious, delicious! And fast. Whether it's a fish sandwich to take away or lunch in the rustic restaurant, it's worth it. Nice service in the restaurant. You can also see lots of fishing utensils.

I came to eat with my family, the ambience and location of the restaurant is very good but the waiters are very cold towards the customers (not just us), the food could be prepared a little more with love, it is simply fried on the fat and thrown onto a plate. What bothers me most is that the children are unfriendly. We didn't even get a "welcome".

Super tasty. I come back every year and have never been disappointed

Very good fish dishes on offer. I choose a fish platter with fried potatoes, my husband chooses cod with fried potatoes. Both tasted good, we were missing a little salt and they could have been a little crispier but that's a matter of taste. The fish is tender and tender, not a single bone. The sometimes icy cold through the entrance door and the door to the fish shop bothered us. I then put the jacket over my legs so I could stand it. The service initially took a lot of time to operate and we also had to remember when paying.

Lecker Fisch und alles was dazu gehört. Mega lecker..

Quaint restaurant, very maritime and down-to-earth. Not at all as fancy as other fish restaurants. The food is super good and delicious. Huge portions. We'll keep coming back, that's clear to us

Ate very tasty. Fish platter for 2 people, clear recommendation. Gladly again

A nice place with very tasty fish dishes. When we are in Cuxhaven, eating here is a must for us.

Everything very tasty and very fresh Very nice staff We'll definitely be back

Saturday evening it was a beautiful sunny day and many guests in the restaurant. Two very young people in service who were friendly but with little experience and a woman did the kitchen. The team was hopelessly overwhelmed. We had fish cakes with fries, there was nothing wrong with that, and the fisherman's breakfast with North Sea crabs, fried potatoes and fried eggs. An expensive dish on the menu. The crabs were musty, no longer fresh and the fried potatoes didn't deserve the name. Consistency and taste a 4-. There is the restaurant and fish shop next door which was busy all day. This raised high expectations that were not fulfilled. Too bad. When I was paying, I asked the young man in service if anyone had dropped out. No, that's not the case, he said with surprise when asked. There's a lot going on with the nice weather. Besides, there seemed to be only tourists in the restaurant.

Fried potatoes very tasty with a fish platter

Quaint, rustic and cozy fish hall with a real harbor character. The food tastes excellent, the portions are filling, the prices are reasonable and the staff is very friendly.

Excellent, super fresh fish. Top quality in a very simple location with very reasonable prices. Friendly and quick service. Only a few dishes for vegetarians. If you're an animal every now and then, then this is the right place for it!

We always enjoyed coming here because of the good food. This time it was closed even though it said open on the internet. You should change that so as not to annoy your guests if you come from further away.

The ambience was good. But: the service was unfriendly. The fish (from the "noble fish plate") was swimming in oil. The fried potatoes were tough and burnt. Thrown away 20 euros and walked through Cuxhaven all afternoon with a bad taste in my mouth.

Delicious, inexpensive fresh fish, well-kept drinks and good service.

Hello. Edit: I was here again on February 22nd, 2025 - for a smokie roll (matjes). It still only cost 4 euros. If you want to buy fresh fish you have to come here. --- Almost every time we are in Cuxhaven, I buy a herring roll at the fish counter at the fish exchange. It doesn't get any fresher. And the price is absolutely reasonable for the quality. On March 2nd, 2024 I paid four euros for the eel smoked herring roll.

Fish always good and plentiful. Fried potatoes, always. mew.

Mega fresh, delicious fish dishes and super cheap too.

Today we had dinner in this quaint restaurant. There is a large kitchen island in the middle of the restaurant. There you can watch the very hard-working chef sizzle. He also has to collect money. Our respect for that 👍 The food he prepares is extremely delicious. We ordered plaice with bacon and fried potatoes. The plaice was thick and fried to perfection. The fried potatoes were very good and not soggy. The small salad on the side had a very tasty dressing. So everything was very tasty. We will definitely come back here to eat. 5 🌟 of us for that!!!

Food right at the source was very tasty. If you don't have enough, you can theoretically take more fresh fish to take home with you right next door... I can only recommend a visit to the fish exchange.... ........... Bon appetit

Delicious !! Great and fresh fish

Very quaint old restaurant, has something of a snack bar. However, the food is good and the prices are reasonable. Very nice, an old traditional restaurant. It doesn't always have to be high gloss. We had a lovely evening

Very tasty fish sandwiches and friendly service

Quaint fish restaurant with reasonable prices.

Bought fresh fish and was thrilled with the selection. Price/performance is right and very fresh quality rounds off the purchase 👍

Always fresh fish, everything was super tasty

Very good meal, thank you very much

Eating fresh fish in the old fish halls right at the harbor in Cuxhaven - it couldn't be more authentic or better. Panfish with three types of freshly caught fish with a delicious remoulade and crispy fried potatoes...mmmhhh my mouth is still watering. The boss Kai is a real young man from Cuxhaven...likeable.

Leckeres Essen zu fairen Preisen.

Not in the restaurant but in the shop next door.

Very tasty food. Everything fresh. It is also possible to purchase fresh fish in the shop.

Very good fish restaurant, but your clothes smell like chip fat afterwards. Here you can get full for little money.

Very good food. Fish fresh and delicious. Good service, the food was at the table quickly. Fried potatoes could have been a little more. We were satisfied and will eat there again. Price are good.

We left off eating badly. Unfortunately

I like to buy fish here when I'm stoned and it's always fresh and tasty but I'm still hungry :(

The food in the restaurant was very tasty. The fried potatoes are great. The fish is also extremely tasty. The service is friendly and quick. The ambience is rather sober, but in this case the good, fresh taste takes precedence. During the day you can also buy fresh fish, as well as fish sandwiches - these are also highly recommended. 12/2024: The temperature in the guest room was very low. It was anything but comfortable.

Delicious local seafood in diner atmosphere. We had local fish and portions were generous. Stop by the store, next door, to take home fresh local catch, smoked fish or canned delicacies.

By chance we were in Cuxhaven (well, whether that has to happen again?) and ended up here (it definitely has to happen again). The shop was incredibly full, you had to wait a long time. It was worth it. The staff did their best under stress and were always friendly. Great ambience. I didn't even know where to look first. The food was fantastic. If I happen to come here again, I will definitely come to the fish market. Absolutely recommended.

Good saleswoman. He put in a lot of effort

The food was very good. The atmosphere is very nice and the young adult waiters do their job perfectly and bring a good mood to the restaurant

Delicious fish, portions for very hungry people

Rustic atmosphere. The food was great. We had the fish market platter. Plenty of fish with delicious fried potatoes. The price-performance ratio is top.

The plaice fillet with fried potatoes - 1- The service, OneMan show - a little understaffed, but very friendly Ambience: Extremely drafty and cold. It moved like "pike soup" - guilt, exhaust system...

Whenever we are in Cuxhaven we eat at the fish exchange. The ambience and the fish dishes are great and also very varied. We'd love to come back.

Great for eating fish. Good price-performance ratio. Very cozy.

Very tasty and fresh fish at good prices

A rustic sailor's restaurant with lots of pictures, posters and ship models to look at, creating a truly maritime atmosphere. There were also very good fish dishes that we really enjoyed. During normal shop opening hours you can also get fish and various seafood salads in the adjoining fish shop. We would love to come back here!

A rustic restaurant with an atmosphere, we ordered mussels and were thrilled. Plus a Portuguese white wine. Thank you very much, we'll be happy to come back 👌

2024: Two 10 days in Cuxhaven definitely means 1 fish sandwich every day. They don't have the best fish sandwiches here... here they have the VERY BEST!!! Quality in the restaurant remains consistently great and without any frills. However, the last time we visited in November it was very cold in the restaurant, which wasn't great. 2023: We have eaten here several times in the past 10 days. Every time we were very satisfied. Food was GREAT and FRESH. Changing the types of fish was possible without any problems, even at no extra charge. In the FISCHBÖRSE you can eat fish without any frills. The shop next door also has the best fish sandwiches, the best service and TOP ADVICE. We can recommend the fish exchange 100%. 2022 - 2000: Simply TOP!!!

Delicious Price performance ok I'd love to come back.

The portions are manageable, fish was very fresh and tasty, staff didn't smile for guests, maybe poor pay, temporary staff are cheaper?!

Good selection and nice service. Parking for guests is free across the street.

Really rustic, harbor atmosphere, a Portuguese crew in the fish exchange, really good food... we particularly like the Labskaus... and a well-tapped Becks. That's really good. The restaurant is full, so be there on time 👍🏽😊

The food was very tasty, service was quick and friendly, what more could you want. Highly recommended.

As a Berliner, eating fresh fish is great... and here the plate with three types of fish was a dream, the fried potatoes were really great...

good and rustic harbor fish restaurant

Wonderful! Delicious, fresh food and super nice service. We were there during our long weekend Been there twice and will be back!

Quaint restaurant/quick snack bar selling fresh fish. Here you can eat really good, quick, fresh fish cheaply. We ate the fish platter for 2 people and 1 crab soup. Both were good. Everyone can choose the side dish for the fish platter, the potato salad was very good, the fish (pollock?) was plentiful, fried with flour, but nothing special. However, I found the crab soup very tasty.

The fine fish platter was very tasty and plentiful. The restaurant is rustically furnished with many sailor bikes and ships. We liked it.

A great place for a fish sandwich. Freshly prepared, more than well topped and very, very friendly staff. We'll definitely be back!!

The restaurant is rustic but serves good food, good value for money. The fish is always fresh. The associated shop next door is great. The staff always friendly! The fish is great, freshly caught every day!

When we are in Cuxhaven, we always eat the fish platter here. Always a lot and always delicious.

The food was really very tasty, we had fish, the service was really friendly and accommodating, a big compliment!😁 I'll be happy to come back

Recently eaten here: Fish Exchange Platter. There were 3 fish fillets, some of which were rubbery, dry, barely browned and relatively tasteless. Plus a piece of lemon. You don't have to have that!

Very tasty, very friendly and at reasonable prices. Highly recommended👍👍👍

Rustic restaurant, everything is good, home-style, food is excellent, inexpensive

Very tasty food. Portions are more than sufficient. Except for the children's meals, it is always 3 pieces of fish + a side dish and a dollop of salad. Perfectly fried and super tasty. We always enjoy coming here.

I ended up there by chance with a few friends. It wasn't a mistake to go in. Rustic atmosphere, friendly and quick service and the freshly prepared fish dishes were very tasty. I would eat here again in a heartbeat.

We had the cutter plaice and cod, both with fried potatoes. The food was very good and we were served friendly and quickly. Gladly again.

Delicious fresh fish sandwiches!

Otherwise, it's a nice harbor restaurant with no frills, you feel like you've been transported back to earlier times. This is great, it couldn't be fresher

Old restaurant, rustic, we liked it. The food was delicious, of course fish and the shrimp plate was also great. Not exactly cheap, but if you love crabs... The service was friendly.

I have never experienced such unfriendly service in my life.

Delicious fish, rustic location, good price/performance ratio - it's great, we'll be back again

The tastiest fish sandwiches ever.

Fish 🐟 delicious 😋, ambience is getting old

The fish market is a must for us. As always, the food was great, the service was friendly and nice. See you soon.
