Fischbude am Willkomm Höft

Sailing ball with 47 people from the Hansa sailing association. Great room with a view of the Elbe, very good buffet and very friendly service. Always my pleasure

We always really like it here. Good food and you can relax here.

Good morning, always a little vacation in the ferry house. Delicious food. Delicious tarts and cakes. Friendly and courteous restaurant staff. I have no right to complain about the prices. The food is freshly prepared >> you can see through the open show kitchen. Which means that everything is still too cheap. I pay more in restaurants of equal quality. Let alone in other European countries. Anyone who complains about the prices actually doesn't understand how poorly services are paid in Germany. The drinks prices are at the Hamburger-Wedeler level. The service is impressive, of course. Honest. Funny. It's unbelievable, but they treat me the way I treat them. Overall, the Fährhaus won't lose me as a guest. As well as my family, my friends and my business partners.

Beautiful view of the Elbe, which also has to be paid for accordingly.

Great location, right on the Elbe with a view of the ships passing by Only the occasionally reported Swiss submarine happens to be diving

Unfortunately, I can't give a very good rating here: the Schulauer Fährhaus is actually an institution, no question about it. And you should definitely treat yourself to the experience of sitting here and watching the big pots and being introduced to them. I sat on the outside terrace in the best weather, but of course the ambience here is not the same as inside. I would definitely have given it one more star. The service was okay, but nothing more. He seemed a bit uninterested, but that could also have been due to the temperatures. The oysters were really world class and the price was also completely reasonable. I can recommend them without reservation. The fish soup we ordered for €13.90 promised a generous addition of fish and vegetables. Unfortunately I was very disappointed here. There were three small pieces of fish in the cup-sized soup. That's simply far too little for this price, especially since it's advertised specifically in the menu. The taste, however, was really good. Unfortunately, my overall result for the Schulauer Fährhaus on this day was not more than three stars, sorry.

Unfortunately I wasn't there. But next door at the fish snack bar simply delicious 👍

Best view of the Elbe and the ships passing by. You can enjoy your food.

We spent a really great evening in the new Schulauer Fährhaus and can only warmly recommend this restaurant. The atmosphere is cozy and elegant at the same time - perfect for a special evening for two. We chose the menu which started with a delicious monkfish appetizer. The fish was incredibly tender and perfectly seasoned – a real treat. For the main course we had the pepper coated cod, which was simply excellently prepared. The pepper coat harmonized perfectly with the tender fish and gave the dish a pleasant spiciness. The wine recommendation is particularly positive. The wine not only went perfectly with the dishes, but was also an interesting and tasty selection that enriched the evening even more. The service was attentive and very friendly, which contributed to an overall successful experience. We felt completely comfortable and will definitely come back. An absolutely recommended place for connoisseurs!

Family event was well organized and food was good

We always enjoy being here, the service is very courteous and the food is very tasty, everything is always freshly prepared and the view of the kitchen from the outside through the glass gives a safe impression that the food is brought to the table with love and care .

Food is excellent. Absolutely great. The staff is also great, attentive, trained, friendly.

Food is excellent. Absolutely great. The staff is also great, attentive, trained, friendly. An incredible evening and everything was perfect from A to Z.

We were there today, great service and delicious food.

I really liked that, some things could be better but I don't come often and then it's good in turns. The Portuguese dish is supposed to be for 2 and costs almost €70

We went to the Schulauer Fährhaus for coffee in the afternoon. We always enjoy going there. There is a star deduction because it does not offer a vegan alternative to milk. There are explicitly designated vegan products for breakfast, there are vegan dishes, but the coffee specialties can only be prepared with milk. Nowadays, more or less every café has oat milk or soy milk, so there should be at least that in a restaurant like this.

The last visit was as part of a company party. The food was very good, the portion sizes were more than sufficient and the service was very attentive and courteous. Overall, a successful evening and has great potential to be repeated.

Great service with a great atmosphere! And don't forget the diverse selection of vegan dishes, which are mega! All in all, a great evening, gladly again :) Thanks to the great team :)

We were just passing through here and wanted to take a look around the Willkomm-Höft and just stop by the New Schulau Fährhaus. The cakes and tarts we ordered were of very high quality and the sea buckthorn punch we ordered later was also very tasty. It was during the week and therefore very empty, so staffing levels were thin. But everyone who was there put a lot of effort into the customer and it was a pleasant stay. For all guests, don't forget to have the parking ticket punched by the service, otherwise it could be expensive.

We found a seat straight away because other guests were just getting up! The waiter greeted us, after 15 minutes the same waiter came over and said: “Oh, those aren’t your cups anymore”! Luckily we had already looked online at what we wanted to drink and ordered (wheat: 6.80 0.5l, juice spritzer 5.40 0.4l), otherwise he would have had to get a menu! After 20 minutes the drinks came! Unfortunately, the neighboring table asked for the menu, it took even longer, and then only one person's order came, the partner came away completely empty-handed! In total, we were served by three waiters from ordering to paying! If we had just left, no one would have noticed! This is complete chaos! I've never seen so many unnecessary trips from the staff: never leave the dining room empty and bring the menu and the card machine with you! The information from the ships passing by was great, but that was it!

Welcome Höft is a “MUST” if you are in the area😃

Unique experience near Hamburg thanks to the unique ship welcome system with live commentary and good explanations for each ship as well as the appropriate national anthems, which are played individually with each incoming ship. High-quality food as well as homemade cakes, tarts and chocolates. Also great in summer in the semi-open winter garden with a direct view of the Elbe. You can almost feel the Elbe when you eat. Also bookable as an event location. Large parking lot at fair conditions.

Fantastic and the view is amazing. There are covered benches down by the water and you can watch and hear the ships being greeted and farewelled with the respective national anthem. Unique and very very beautiful.

We were here because we were curious about the ship greetings/farewells. Unfortunately these end at 4:30 p.m., so we didn't notice any more then. The prices are very high for what you get. Main courses hardly cost less than €20… I had the vegan Frisian cake, which unfortunately only consisted of cream. My husband had the nut cake which was ok. I would describe the atmosphere as rather old-fashioned. However, the view of the Elbe was very nice and the service was very attentive and helpful. You can sit outside well even in winter, thanks to the radiant heater. There are some vegan options on the menu, including dessert. A nice location that you could do something with!

We celebrated the New Year there with a buffet. The food was very tasty and varied, the service was quick and friendly. With a beautiful view of the Elbe. Would love to come back

Definitely worth a trip in summer😉

Very nice there, great view, you don't need to order in advance, just drive there.

Christmas, second holiday... Not justified in terms of price. Kale 20 EUR according to the menu with caramelized potatoes - which have never seen a pan. Fried potatoes with fish etc without bacon and pale. Goose, steaks etc start at 36 EUR. Noisy environment, bad for older people with hearing aids - but that's just a side note.

We were at the Schulauer Fährhaus for lunch on December 26th, 24, like every year. We particularly like the whole turkey, carved at the table, which we enjoyed with ten family members. There are a lot of families there at lunchtime and the staff is well prepared for small children. This year the same staff was there, but the service was far worse, unfortunately. This started with the fact that it was not passed on when making the reservation that one person had to eat gluten-free. As a result, there was no food for them for the first half hour because the staff was unable to find out which parts of the main course they had booked were edible. Later potatoes were boiled and the lady ate turkey breast without anything with potatoes. The rest of us were also unlucky this time: the first waiter asked what we wanted to drink, noted the first water, then ran away and served three other tables in the next 20 minutes. After 15 minutes a nice gentleman took pity and took the orders. The drinks came in very slow portions. The food itself was great as always, except that the side dishes and sauce were eaten quickly. The reorder was catastrophic. We waited a really long time for sauce. But that's better than last year, when we didn't get any. There are still four stars because it was very crowded.

Unique - impressively beautiful!

Disappointing, the food was mediocre, the schnitzel probably ended up in the fish breading and tasted very strongly of fish. Uncomfortable, much too loud, we don't have to repeat it.

A traditional restaurant and excursion destination The staff is very well trained and very attentive. The guests are taken care of here. Despite it being extremely full, the food came to the table together, no waiting time for the people at the table, the food was very appetizing and prepared with love. The food and drinks are a real pleasure. Regarding the ambience, we were lucky that our table was by the window with a beautiful view of the Elbe, unfortunately a bit cloudy today but the Wedel Schulauer Fährhaus has no influence on that The restaurant is barrier-free and always offers a nice place for people with walking difficulties. I have also attended various dance proms and dance tournaments as well as weddings and birthdays here. I can say that the Wedel Schlauer Fährhaus has not lost its reputation in any way, I simply say that the reputation of the house has improved even more. So if you make a detour to the Rolandstadt Wedel at the border triangle (Schleswig Holstein, Hanseatic City of Hamburg, and Lower Saxony) at any time of the year, you have to make a stop at the Willkommenhöft and the Wedel Schulauer Fährhaus. To the ferry house team Keep it up and make every guest feel like royalty because you are all great

Ordered a duck for home on December 24th, 2023, which was so good that we really wanted to eat it there for Christmas 2024. Reserved for 12 people on December 25th, 2024...after we were brought to the table we waited 45 minutes until we were even asked if we wanted something to drink 😅 All the food like the goose and duck were cold, the a la carte dishes like schnitzel and burgers were just as cold, a shame. When we pointed out the lack of heat to the waitress, we were told "that she would take care of it". We didn't see the waitress again. We then asked for the bill and simply have to say that we found 50 euros each for a cold duck or cold goose to be far too much. The only thank you is for the beautiful ambience at Christmas time and that was it. Christmas 2025 probably without the Schulau ferry house..

We actually just wanted to watch the ship's greetings. Unfortunately there was nothing that day. We didn't go to the ferry house, it was too expensive for us.

The service was competent and friendly. The food came quite quickly. The ambience was excellent.

The fact that the expensive drink is served without a coaster... we've gotten used to that, but the fact that you're served a half-baked apple strudel is quite astonishing... by the way, there's no reason for the bespectacled waiter to put the strudel in the oven again ...

We took a short trip to the Welcome Farm and were very disappointed. The cream in the hot chocolate was sour, red lentil soup and coconut pumpkin soup were not convincing, especially since stale bread was served with it. The ambience is very appealing, even if it was given a negative touch by an arrogant appearance by one of the employees.

PERFECT 😍 We love coming to the Schulauer Fährhaus, the location is unique and the food is perfection! Only recommended

Always worth a visit, you can sit nicely and look out and have a very nice view. The food is very good quality, the service is very accommodating and great service. The prices are a bit higher but the cake is handmade.

I drove past on the ship for the first time. And nothing, no “goodbye”. Then you can also rename the thing

We were happy - unfortunately it was closed to the general public. The fish stall next to it was also good.

We stopped at the ferry house at short notice. The ambience is convincing, the cakes looked delicious. We chose the fish soup. The stock tasted good. Unfortunately, the pieces of fish in the soup still had the limp skin on them. That's not really tasty. It's a shame ☹️

Nice to sit down and unwind. You can watch cool boats.

It was very nice here. And very tasty 😉

Price-performance ratio is not right, still designed for bus tourists. You could do something with it, but not with the kitchen. Kale isn't difficult, but the potatoes were cold, not crispy, just briefly dipped in sugar, the kale was full of stalks, the sausage was too fatty and the smoked pork was dry. The waffle for dessert didn't work at all.

We enjoyed delicious cake and the great view.

Loveless snack bar with expensive food and drinks and too few staff....

Highly recommended! We were at a wedding dinner, so it's best to be very hungry. I feel a bit sad for the delicious fish that I couldn't finish because I was just too full.

Top coffee & cake - direct view of the Elbe & shipping traffic.

You pay for the view and the ship's welcome with the price of your meal, but that's completely fine. Guests only pay 80 cents per hour for parking.

A great place to unwind on sunny days. If it is raining and there is a cold wind, it is better to have a jacket with you. Because on the terrace, which is well protected, you freeze. The breakfast can be expanded for the price. The cake stand is ok, but the special delicacies don't cut it. The buffet with eggs etc. was really well done. Unfortunately, the fried eggs and poached egg on toasty with avocado and hollandais sauce were really tasty, but cold. Rolls were baked and not fresh from the bakery. Plus point 1l carafe of water, orange juice and coffee. That hardly exists anymore. Please try it anyway.

We were here 5 years ago. A thank you for welcoming the people at sea. Everything was done very well and nicely. The only thing that bothered us was the “fee” for the parking lot. This is a rip off. If at some point no one comes anymore, they'll wonder why.

Breakfast was great again! Everything was tasty and beautifully presented. The service is very friendly.

We went there today for coffee and cake and had reserved and paid in advance. Unfortunately, the covered terrace lacks any flair. Unfortunately, the cake we ordered wasn't anything special, nor did it have any visual wow effect. The coffee was very thin. We liked the idea of ​​the cake delicacies on the cake stand. Unfortunately the service didn't come back. It was also a shame that you couldn't understand much of the ship's announcements. This was actually the main reason we were there.

You have to have been there at least once!

Went there with children especially for the ship welcomes. Unfortunately, a disappointment, as even when the terrace is half full, the information about the ships is difficult to understand (too quiet and unclear). Prices are very reasonable, but it's a real shame that even guests in the parking lot have to pay a parking fee. This is small, but still a nuisance in my opinion. We won't be guests again.

If you would like to sit by the Elbe in the sunshine, it is very nice there. Delicious cake, nice service, what more do you need... If you want to eat delicious food, you'll definitely find something here...

To my surprise, I got delicious bread with 3 different types of butter in the restaurant for €2. I can only write great about it

It's worth a trip. Beautiful ships pass by and are said goodbye or greeted.

A place that dares the fine balancing act between culinary experience and maritime show. Beautifully located on the Elbe, you can sit comfortably here, with a glass of wine in your hand, while the large parade of ships passes by outside. But the real spectacle? The welcome farm! Here the arriving ships are greeted with their national anthems, as if each were a state visit. Information on register tons and sizes is generously served as the ocean giants cruise lazily past. I can't say whether the food can keep up - but the wine was good and the welcoming ceremony is an entertaining greeting to the wide world. A curious, charming experience not to be missed!

When it's all finished it'll be a nice place to watch ships. You can also eat and drink comfortably inside or outside. Whether small or big hunger or just an ice cream, everything is available.

Good cakes, friendly but sometimes slightly confused service; Outdoor area/conservatory very loud. The fact that paying guests also have to pay parking fees is a disgrace (reduction or not)

We didn't eat in the ferry house, we preferred delicious fish rolls next door.

Had coffee and cake on the terrace. It was very tasty and the staff was friendly with a lot of humor

Very nice place where you can comfortably look out over the Elbe while sitting in a cafe! We'll definitely be back!

It's lovely to sit on the Elbe and greet the big ships. Fine dining and delicious cakes with excellent service. We come here at least once every time we visit Hamburg.

Good place with a view of the Elbe to enjoy coffee and cake in the sun

The prices are too high for the service received.

Very attentive waitresses and various people.

A nice place to stay on the Elbe. The welcome and farewell to the ship is commented on with lots of information about the respective ship. Very interesting. We sat on the terrace and were served very nicely and courteously. Food was also super tasty. Thank you for the relaxing time.

A very nice restaurant with very good service and the best location. We stayed there for several hours.

Simply a magical location! The location is great on the Elbe to watch the “Pötten” and enjoy a delicious piece of cake. We'll definitely be back, just to sit inside and enjoy more food.

The waitresses and waiters are very friendly (super friendly 😉), humorous and very warm! The food is excellent, as are the cakes and ice cream! You could even watch the chefs preparing the food. At the same time you will be informed when ships arrive or leave; a unique place in the world that only Hamburg - Welcome Höft offers! Great restaurant experience!

Expensive, nothing for in between.

I was there on a Saturday. At that time there was also a wedding in the adjacent winter garden. Unfortunately, the announcements about the individual ships could not be understood. I must have been sitting too far away from the nearest loudspeaker. The service is very friendly and the cake with the coffee was very good.

Super nice afternoon in and at the Schulauer Fährhaus, had a delicious lunch and celebrated our birthday.

Very nice restaurant, good food and service with a wonderful view of the ships leaving and arriving. In addition, there is information about the ships and the ships are welcomed and said goodbye.

A little overcrowded in summer, but always a must for shipspotters! Update September 19, 2024 Today we had the Elburger with fries. I have no idea what went wrong, the fries were too crispy and had a brown color. The waiter didn't respond at all to the amount of fries left.

Nice atmosphere, great ambience 😊

Uschi's Bude is a fast food restaurant. The food was okay, price performance was okay.

We had coffee and cake. It was delicious. The service was very nice and quick. It's very big here. Lots of seating outside and inside. When you come in via the terrace it looks a bit like Malle. Big colorful posters... I personally didn't like it. The ship's welcome and farewell were interesting, that's why we came.

Always worth a trip, we had a visit from Lake Constance and had an eventful evening there, with delicious dishes and good wines. A restaurant with high quality and good service.

Great food with a beautiful panorama, for this price range the waiters could have a bit more style, the cutlery was thrown to us so to speak (not placed), the great food was served like it was at a chip shop...it's a shame

Service by untrained Asian girls, Riesling is not wine as an aperitif. The oysters are denigrated, very much in the style of Schicki-Micki! The pan fish was good, the fried potatoes were soggy. It used to be more rustic, but also better.

Vegetarian buger, with salad and coffee. Yummy. It was clean.

The view makes up for it a lot, especially outside in summer. Food is tasty, service is friendly

Atmosphere manageable when the sun is shining and ships are arriving. The Schulauer panfish was cleverly made - next time I would like to bake it a little more glassy. Gladly again!

You have to see how the individual ships are greeted

It's a special atmosphere there

Great view of the Elbe. Service seemed annoyed and there is still room for improvement in terms of friendliness. The great location and the view probably justify the prices.

Fish is tasty, the rest is okay

It's a shame that the ship's welcome is so reserved. The declaration and national anthems can hardly be heard! The restaurant won a lot. Delicious food, very friendly waiters. A wonderful trip when the sun was shining. Also the fish sandwiches on the corner... very fresh and delicious.

Great location to watch ships, However, in my opinion overpriced drinks and food, nice service.

The welcome sign blocks your view... unfortunately smoking is also allowed here.

The rooms, the large terrace on the Elbe, the ship welcome area and the entire ambience can be rated positively, but the quality of the lunch dishes did not match the exorbitant prices in any way. The variety of Glückstadt herring (the 3 fillets were passable) was due to a confused, visually unappealing pile of salad mix on the same plate. The amount of sauce for the fish was perhaps a tablespoon. But the fried potatoes were an absolute no go!! We found a small handful, maybe just 2-3 small potatoes, without bacon or onions, apparently ready-made potato slices, without any taste, possibly just briefly dipped in the deep fryer, for an extra €5.50 as an impudence!! A chef in a supposedly upscale restaurant should be able to at least produce sensible and tasty fried potatoes. We complained about the price for the small quantity when serving, but the waitress didn't respond. No fish knives were uncovered and when they were uncovered, the waitress didn't ask whether you were satisfied or whether you enjoyed it. She probably feared the answer. It's a shame, it's a nice restaurant, but we won't be coming back here to eat!

Toĺles restaurant and café directly on the Elbe.

Very nice staff. The orders were brought to the table fairly quickly.

The fish soup and the chanterelle cream soup we ordered were thin and bland and overpriced. The politeness of the service was limited

Very good food! Service very good!

We are disappointed with how much the restaurant has lost quality in recent years. The food is average at best, sometimes even below average and "poor" considering the very high prices. Even the "so-called" fried potatoes, which you have to order as a very small portion for a whopping EUR 5.50, have the quality of a snack bar (without bacon and onions and not crispy). The service staff seemed bored and wasn't even interested in how we liked the food. Unfortunately, we will no longer visit the Schulauer Fährhaus and will not reserve it for business meals. Too bad.
