Fischrestaurant Knurrhahn in Bremen

Wonderfully North German. I'd love to go again

We ate Bremen panfish. Very, very tasty. A huge portion. The price-performance ratio is right. The service is friendly and funny. Highly recommended!!!

The most delicious Bremen fish cake in a roll that I have ever eaten - homemade and at a surprisingly affordable price. The service was also really nice. If I come to Bremen again, I will definitely stop by the Gurnard 👍

It's called Restaurant Bistro and has the ambience of a better chip shop, but very good, tasty fresh fish.

We wanted to eat fish soup here, but turned around in the entrance area because it smelled strongly of the toilet. There's definitely something that can be repaired in the ventilation...

TOP!! 4 different dishes, all 4 great, perfectly prepared and very tasty! Service was very nice and accommodating.

Very, very tasty fish and side dishes at really fair prices for huge portions. The seats aren't that great, but the quality really makes up for it.

Small restaurant with mainly delicious fish dishes. Friendly service, reservation recommended

Price-quality is okay. Pay cash only (opposite Commerzbank). Cafetaria resto with great fish-oriented catering.

Everything exceeded my expectations, in a positive sense. An atmosphere that gives the impression of being in a fishing port, the service is complacent and the food is delicious. I am very satisfied and can definitely recommend the bistro to anyone who likes fish.

The two of us went there for a spontaneous meal yesterday at 7:10 p.m. on the way home to Münster because we had read the good reviews. We really weren't disappointed, the food was great!!! Almost even better than the food was the extremely warm and funny waiter who served us. We haven't had this much fun in a long time and there are rarely people in the already strenuous catering industry who also do their job as a calling Guest. Please keep it up and we'll be happy to come back in May.

Get to the back door (bistro) and try fish and chips / shrimps and chips. You won't regret it.

Delicious fish dishes. Large portions, we were very full. The kale with the fish was incredibly tasty.

Nothing special, food was ok. Don't have to go there again

This is Bremen's oldest and most traditional fish restaurant (and my favourite). The service staff are friendly and professional. The kitchen staff is really fast in preparation. All fish is fresh and tasty - as delicious as if you were in a seaside town. My personal favourite is the Helgoland fish plate, the fish soup is also recommendable.

The blonde waitress was very polite when taking orders but became very rude when leaving.

We were there today and had great expectations of the pan fish and the fried fish. The panfish was fried to death, tough and dry around the edges and drowned in mustard sauce, the fried potatoes were soggy and swimming in oil. Unfortunately it wasn't enjoyable. Things weren't any better with the fried fish. Except for the potatoes, my husband really liked them. In addition, there was a very unpleasant smell in the guest room. We can highlight the super nice service.

I can only recommend a very good old Bremen fish restaurant.

The food (coastal plates and Helgoland fish platter) was perfect, high quality and very tasty. The portions were large and balanced with fish and side dishes. Each individual component impresses with its taste. The service was quick and courteous. My partner and I loved it - great value for money.

You've never heard of the term "customer is king" in the restaurant, which is very impressive, and it is the oldest fish restaurant in Bremen. But you can tell that the establishment is a quality address by looking at the long-running snack bar, which I love

Unfortunately the pan fish was flooded with sauce, so there was no taste of the fish. Fried potatoes were soggy and tasted as if they had been warmed up several times. There was no charge for food, which was the only bright spot on this visit.

The fish dishes were tasty and beautifully prepared. Everything came to the table hot and together. No long waiting times. It was okay - also in terms of price.

Great food and nice portion size. The waitress was very helpful and polite and the end cost was suprizingly cheap. Great stop of for lunch.

I know why, after 28 years, I no longer eat at Gurnard. I'm not surprised that it's closing. There are other very good fish restaurants in Bremen.

Had a quick fish sandwich in the bistro today, very tasty. Freshly prepared and good value for money.

Worth a visit for lunch or dinner. Great service. The kabeljou I had was amazing, fresh, basically fell apart, yum. Owner run and managed. Definitely an authentic Bremen experience

We took food with us, so only 1 star for the ambience. But the fried fish with fried potatoes was great and the price was reasonable.

Nice restaurant with good food. The ambience is not necessarily “homey”, and it is also a bit unheated in the cold season. But good service…

Good portion at reasonable prices. Attentive service. Top location. Parking garage next door.

The food is great and the service and friendliness of the bistro's employees is great. Looking forward to next time

Food 10/10. I had the redfish fillet, my colleagues had the fish platter. Absolutely top value for money! And the freshness of the fish is ultra good! Rarely if ever have I eaten such good fish!

Nice service! Ambience bright and clean and pleasantly quiet, even though it was full at that time! The food was also prepared quickly and tasted really delicious! 😋 We'd love to come back

Very good fish dishes. Nice staff

Home-style fish restaurant, the breaded cod was very good, the service was very nice, the ambience doesn't really invite you to linger.

Service was quick and the ambience with the aquarium was nice, but unfortunately the taste of the food was too bland. Fish and spinach leaves could have been seasoned much better.

Very tasty 🤤 highly recommended

Hello, the long-running favorite with potato salad at Gurnard is an absolute legend in Bremen. I always enjoy coming to your place at lunchtime. Super friendly staff who are always available for a little chat. Keep it up!

Nous avons découvert tout d'abord les odeurs... Puis une belle façade historique et enfin un personnel sympathique et attentif à nos attentes en ce chef Rafic pour quelques explications. Mon épouse a pris une assiette de crevette asiatiques et moi un bol que dis je une soupière de soupe de poissons, gouteuse avec son céleri, carrottes poissons, crevette et ce pain assoiffé dans ce bouillon, un pur délice. Merci Chef Rafic.

Our insider tip for eating fish in Bremen!!! Great selection, very nice and super fast service. Very, very tasty food. But everything was really fresh and tasted good. We had a Frisian fish soup as a starter and 1x Frisian tapas. The main course then: fried fish (cod) and gurnard fish platter. It was great! Prices absolutely reasonable. We'll definitely come by again. :-)

You can't rely on the opening times. Today at 7:15 p.m. I was turned away very rudely! I actually wanted to have dinner here for the rest of the week.....now my money is going somewhere else😝

The three of us dined there yesterday. We were all very satisfied. Good portion and very attentive service.

Food was ok. Unfortunately, the breading on the fish wasn't crispy and there were no spices. Some of the doors in the women's toilets could not be closed properly and the toilets themselves were very old. 😐☹️

We wanted to eat in the restaurant first. A beer just under 6 euros. Many thanks! Finally dined in the snack bar. The long-running favorite. It's gotten pretty expensive. But it always tastes good. Service in the snack bar was good, but musty in the restaurant.

Fresh fish, deliciously prepared.👍

Despite free tables, you weren't welcome at 7:30 p.m.! The way of communication (calling from the open kitchen) is underground. “No, not today”! Maybe better... The open kitchen didn't look inspiring!

Very tasty fish, everything freshly prepared, "open cooking", you can even watch. Very nice service! The only small negative point: the fried potatoes were very fatty. Otherwise perfect.

Hochwertiger Fisch, lecker zubereitet. Remouladensauce selbst gemacht. Professioneller Service. Interieur okay.

Very tasty food (fried fish, pan fish), very friendly service!!

Great food, I would definitely come back for this. Atmosphere unfortunately like in the canteen, there is really room for improvement.

As a lunchtime snack we got a fried fish roll and it was very tasty. The breading is very thin and you can taste the fried fish intensely. A clear recommendation 👍🏽 This fish restaurant invites you to go as well as to sit and enjoy. The prices are very good. Baked fish rolls €5, a plate with 2-3 fish around €12.

Food was wonderful. Great service and courteous staff, my friend and I felt very comfortable and will come back to eat again soon

Very tasty, plaice, black tiger prawns, fish soup and wolffish, all super fresh👍 The service was extremely friendly and quick!

Meine Bewertung bezieht sich auf den Imbiss den ich regelmäßig bei jedem Aufenthalt in Bremen besuche. Top Backfisch, Top Kartoffelsalat, Immer sehr sehr nette Leute... Dieser Imbiss und den Dauerbrenner (Menü) als Start in den Feierabend oder Bremen Urlaub - besser geht es nicht :-)

Good food and decent portions without a lot of frills. What was really annoying on the seats in the snack area was the smell of garbage. You can lose your appetite. And what always stands out - not just here: Disposable gloves are not only used to touch the food, they are also used to collect money. An absolute no go.

Authentic and delicious... And it's been forever!

Went there with the “city for two” app and it worked very well. Both fish dishes were excellent, great potato salad and fried potatoes. Very nice service.

Netter Fischimbiss mit Bedienung. Wer hier Edelfische und gehobene Küche erwartet ist hier falsch. Einfache aber gute Fischgerichte und bescheidene Beilagenauswahl...das ist alles. Die Gerichte sind den Preis wert..aber nicht Billig.

Everything was very tasty and kept simple. Fish soup, crab soup and schnitzel rolls 🍝✌🏻👍🏻

See a nice restaurant with good food.

We wanted to order ToGo and were there at 3:25 p.m. Then we read that the kitchen closes at 3:30 p.m. (Sundays). The door was still open when we arrived, so we went in. We were immediately told “Closed!” thrown out without further comment. Apparently the boss wanted to close earlier. Therefore our stay in Bremen ended without fish sandwiches, which is very disappointing. I would like more transparency and a more polite tone. We were very disappointed and will never visit this store again.

Nice fish restaurant. There is a good selection of different fish dishes at fair prices. The food comes fresh and quickly and the service is friendly and quick. Unfortunately, card payments were not possible during our visit. A notice there in advance would have been nice. But the food is definitely top. Both the herring and the pan fish with mustard sauce.

Good fish, great fried potatoes, unfortunately very expensive.

You can eat very good fish here. I'm always satisfied every time. Always worth a visit if you like fish. Was currently very satisfied again.

Service very nice and friendly Ms. Schnackenberg

Bester Backfisch, no frills, constant!

Very tasty fish sandwiches, freshly prepared. €3.5-5 is a really good price for this.

Here I ate the best fish, incredibly tasty 😋

The fish is great! The plaice with crabs takes a long time to eat, but tastes great and costs little.

The associated snack bar is right next door. Super tasty and cheap. Update. As always good, although a little more expensive.

A great fish restaurant that leaves nothing to be desired. My parents were already customers there and when we're in Bremen we go to the gurnard. The children have been going there for years now.

Three different types of fish were over fried and all tasted the same. The taste was disappointing and at best comparable to fish from fast food restaurants.

I had the 3 types of fried fish plate. The pomade was borderline dark and every type of fish tasted like old frying fat!!!

Unfortunately disappointing. We had a reservation and were not given a very friendly welcome. The weather was good and we sat outside. A mistake. Our table was right in front of the window to the kitchen and we saw how many things came out of the refrigerator or were frozen and warmed up in the microwave. We had the plaice twice and it was very tasteless and watery. The service was very reserved and rude. We had to pay in cash because the EC device at the next table still worked.

Grumpy, unfriendly service, hollondaise from the tetra pack, fish everything frozen, crab soup from the microwave, a complete culinary disaster

Several people had dinner there last night and we were all very disappointed!! The fried fish was very bad and way too expensive. None of us would go there again.

If you want to eat good fish, this is the place for you. Nice selection (but not too much), tasty and high quality. In addition, a very attentive and knowledgeable staff.

Something for every taste. I've been there several times and the quality is always very good.

Super tasty Matjes Hausfrauen Art and Pollock. We were very satisfied and would happily recommend this restaurant.

Friendly service, "rustic" typical fish dishes with homemade sauces, fried potatoes, potato salad. "Let's eat at mother's house".

Never make the mistake of sitting in the free seats in the associated restaurant with food from the snack bar! You will be evicted even if you also order something to drink through the restaurant. Since I often went there with friends in the past, I would rather be at Bodes in the future.

We decided at short notice to eat at Gurnrahn. The fish was really tasty, the potato salad was just as it should be. The service is a bit cold, typically North German, but we like that kind of thing, it's authentic. But the staff was also very nice. We would be happy to come back when we are in the area.

A restaurant near the central square. The crispy battered seafood was delicious.

Good fish cuisine at home level. Nice service. Bourgeois atmosphere

We went for lunch. We shared a portion of fish between 2 people. The portions are quite large. We chose 3 mixed filleted fish. The price is 21 euros. There was plenty of potato salad on the side.

Excellent fried fish from three types of fish. Side dishes also very tasty. Wine selection appropriate. If you like (fried) fish, you should stop by here!

Very tasty food and generous portions. Service is very friendly.

Average at all levels. You can go, but you won't miss much if you let it go🙄

It's a shame that in such a traditional restaurant you are turned away in a relatively unfriendly manner at 7:20 p.m. with the message that the kitchen would close half an hour before closing time (8:00 p.m.). The joy of showing my non-Bremen relatives this restaurant gave way to perplexity. Everyone can have a bad day, but the fact that this statement came from two people makes you sad. People always talk so beautifully about Germany being a service desert. Here it has been shown once again that the term is not entirely untrue. Unfortunately for me it was the last time in the gurnard, but I sincerely hope that people here are future-oriented and able to learn.

Good place to eat fish, a bit small but great, great

We came here because of the many good reviews and can only confirm them. The food was delicious, the service was very friendly and a particular highlight I have to mention is the beautiful and well-kept seawater aquarium, which shares the dining room on the ground floor. A real eye-catcher.

As always, it was very tasty and filling. The trio of fried fish with potato salad with remoulade, as well as the food of my companion, was very good. The service at the table was very friendly and accommodating. I would like to come over for dinner again. As always, there is nothing negative, on the contrary.

Have just eaten a portion of Helgoland fish platter and a portion of mixed fish platter. The fish was brilliant, the fried potatoes were amazing, the potato salad was gigantic and the homemade tartar sauce was amazing. Mr. Müller (kitchen) and Squire (service) are absolutely great and friendly. Absolute recommendation!!!

Very good food, fresh fish. The portions are large. The staff very friendly.

Excellent food. Cozy and friendly, attentive staff.

One of the oldest fish restaurants in Bremen, very good fish. Friendly service, food came very quickly.

Definitely visit! A little away from the tourist crowds. You can tell by the prices and the quality.

Very good service! Food well prepared and tasty. Are prepared for children and have a special menu.

I went there for the first time with my daughter and we really enjoyed it. Delicious food, super nice staff and a nice maritime atmosphere. There is even a great aquarium in the guest room with beautiful fish. Any time.

We had Bremen fish rolls to go. They are very cheap and are freshly made. It may also be that these are the best in the city, but unfortunately I didn't like the taste of them at all and I can't recommend them.

We got some Backfisch sandwiches to take away on the same corner as the restaurant. Tasty fish was battered and fried on the spot, their Remoulade was also very tasty. Next time I will try Fish and Chips, also fresh and freshly prepared fish. Simple and clean environment. Very friendly staff even though there were a lot of customers.
