Hafensänger GmbH & Co. KG in Dornum

Starting: Parking in front of the house at the harbor costs at least 2.5 euros (24/7) for 2 hours, although it is a municipal matter but annoying. You have a nice view, but unfortunately you can't see much during the day when it's dark. Ambiance is not that great, more like a better canteen, a bit too loud. Reminds me a little of Dammer Berge (motorway service station). Food is okay but way too expensive considering the quantity and quality. Drinks are also too expensive. Staff is very friendly. In any case, it's not my case.

I can only give 5 stars for the ambience. Very cozy 👍

The portion size of the fried fish and the taste was extremely good.

The best place I've ever been. The service is at the highest level, the food is delicious 😋 and fast, and everything is always the freshest. I recommend it.

Mega delicious food and super nice service. And the view is magnificent. Everything perfect. We'll be back. Thank you 🥰

Very good restaurant at the harbor Dornumersiel

This Imbissbuud is vööls to düür. I can't tell you anything about that food, but I don't want to eat it again.

Unfortunately there is a lot of through traffic from beach vacationers

Very nice restaurant with an impressive view over the Wadden Sea. The food is very tasty and the service is top notch. I will definitely come back.

We were at Hafensänger last night and luckily we had a reservation. Service was great. Super nice and attentive. The food was great. Great taste.

Good average. Great location and wonderful view.

The food is very good, the staff is friendly, the prices are very high. Just a tourist place

Great food and lovely waitresses. It's a bit warm in the summer, I think ventilation would not go a miss. View superb.

We spent a wonderful morning on the beach in Dornumersiel. Then we decided to have something to eat at the Hafensänger in the beach stall, i.e. in the lower area. For 3 people, currywurst with fries and a drink paid an impressive 40.80 euros. Our pager was broken and didn't vibrate to let us know our food was ready. After about 15-20 minutes I went to ask. Our food was there. The lady there said well now it's cold. I told her that the pager didn't vibrate and was probably defective. The people there weren't interested! That was super outrageous!!!!!!!!! We then ate it cold and were really served! It's better to walk a few meters over to Rintjes. You won't see us again! This is not how you treat customers and PEOPLE! By the way, the fries were hard and too long!

I've never eaten such bad kibbeling in my entire life.

Nice view of the sea. Service great. Food top. We go every year at the end of the vacation. Always good. The Deichburger 👍😊

The Finkenwerder plaice could have stayed in the pan a little longer… the taste was weak… the service… it was there… friendliness looks different… A ray of hope the beautiful view over the Wadden Sea…

Very nice location, extremely courteous service and solid food. The quality of the food cannot keep up with the prices.

Great restaurant for a bite to eat. 1x deichburger with fries. 1x wienersnitzel with gingerbread. Small menu, what was served was just good! Price-quality is fine. Bank card or cash payment possible.

The fish was good, but the vegetarian curry was unfortunately pretty bland. But much worse: Everything inside is full of (cross) spiders!! And that's not from today. If everything is so posh, I don't understand why they don't clean it every day and pay attention to things like that. That really wasn't nice!

The Hafensänger restaurant is located directly on the beach with a view of the North Sea. The restaurant has thoughtful, friendly staff. The food is exceptional, value for money is absolutely ok. You get dishes that are unique in their composition and simply interpreted differently and are therefore a pleasure. We felt very, very comfortable.

Very good service staff, friendly, courteous and attentive. We felt very comfortable, the ambience was also very nice, we sat in the middle and could look right and left and straight ahead at the water and the food was excellent, see pictures

Been there for a wedding. Great staff (see child friendliness) and the food etc is really great. The view of the harbor and the sea creates a great overall impression. The photo was taken on the terrace of the restaurant 😉

Restaurant (above): The Deichburger is wonderful! Juicy beef, great rolls, cheese and sauce were great and the fries (cut by hand) were also very tasty (20 euros)!!! Plus a barre beer! Mega!!!! The service is very friendly and attentive. Recommendation!!!

There are two areas, the snack bar downstairs and the restaurant upstairs, where we were. Were welcomed very friendly and had a very tasty meal. Plus, child-friendly staff and a great view. It wasn't cheap, but the price/performance was right.

Unfortunately, we had already eaten fish sandwiches beforehand, so we didn't stop here for a meal but for a café. Definitely a good decision. The view is really nice. Daler Café was also very tasty. When I looked at the food of the guests who were there, I have to say it looked really tasty.

We were there for the first time in 2019 and were 100% satisfied! Today, with an almost 3-year-old child, it was... I don't know how to put it... she wasn't allowed to drink her own bottle, but we had to order her something so that she could drink something. I would do it differently in retrospect. Leave mine out and just order something for her and then drink that. When we ordered the food and there was nothing for her since she could eat something from my husband, we were looked at strangely. We saw how big the children's plates were and it was definitely too much for them. The food itself was good! However, my husband remembered the burger better. The prices have also increased quite a bit. We will definitely go there again at some point, but we will react differently and lower our expectations.

Beautiful view of the North Sea. I can't rate the food, we just drank something.

Own service announced. The prices are slightly higher.

Eat only until 5 p.m.! Very disappointing!

Great sea view. Food was very good. Service was all good. Not a bargain.

Very nice restaurant on the beach, and the food is delicious

We went to dinner at Hafensänger on July 21st and were looking forward to a delicious meal, but unfortunately we were very disappointed. The matjes with fried potatoes were served with a sauce (pampe) from the bucket, the pan fish with 3 fillets and bacon beans with fried potatoes. The beans were tasteless, the fillets were sometimes too salty or not seasoned at all. The best thing about both dishes was the fried potatoes. Price performance is not right here at all. In this price range, I expect fresh ingredients and not ready-made sauce from a big plastic bucket.

We only had a drink in the self-service section. The selection was ok, the view was nice and it was actually really hot behind the windows. Tip top for relaxing.

The Hafensänger restaurant is really an eye-catcher. It is located directly on the beach and has a fantastic view on all sides. We found both the food and drink to be very good. The staff is very considerate, kind and helpful. We have felt very comfortable here.

Mega delicious food, super friendly staff and a great view! What more could you want...only recommended! And the fries are absolutely amazing! Deliciously seasoned with herb butter salt!

Beach shack. Saturday around 2 p.m. Hunger. Got to the snack bar relatively quickly. Then the absolute blast: fries no less than 30 minutes. And even a bratwurst in a bun doesn't go any faster. No still water... Moved on hungry and thirsty. Thanks for nothing and goodbye.

Prices very doubtful 🤧too expensive! e.g. schnitzel with fries = €25 🤑

A great restaurant, friendly and fast service and really tasty Price performance fits

Great restaurant with a beautiful view of the Watt. The food was good, but considering the price it wasn't quite convincing. The Deichburger's burger patty wasn't very warm and the cheese barely spread. The chanterelle was good, but the kick was missing. No unique selling point... Overall, a good meal but the previously raised expectations were not met.

The Büsum plaice was perfect! Above all, the service is extremely competent and courteous!

Successful ambience, Service is very courteous and friendly, Dog(s) are welcome

I ate the falafel burger with fries. The portion is very large and it was very tasty. I can only recommend.

Delicious food, good service, great ambience.

Ambiance and view very nice. Condition very good and friendly. Food was okay, but sometimes quite oily. Prices are quite high, but reasonable for the location.

Great atmosphere and very tasty food. Fantastic with a view of the sea

Very beautiful view! Very high quality food! The fish burger & fries were simply great! Personally, I'm not used to such prices, but it's absolutely understandable considering the quality of the food. Great shop

Very quiet, well-kept atmosphere. Outdoor and indoor dining. Direct view of the mudflats. Great. The soups were perfect, the lamb was fried to perfection and super tasty. The service staff was friendly and unobtrusive. Guests will be informed by telephone if the table becomes available earlier. Here you can end the day relaxing.

Very friendly lady at the sales counter. You have a beautiful view of the small harbor on one side and the North Sea with the beach on the other side.

The view is a highlight, but it's worth it. Unfortunately you are not allowed to sit at the window without a reservation even though everything was free the whole time. This isn't exactly communicated in a charming way when you come in the door. Food is ok, the fries have their own seasoning, someone really put some thought into it, generally a very nice gastro concept. It's rare to see something like that up here.

Great view of the beach. Very nice and attentive service. The food tasted really good. The North Sea burger is highly recommended.

Modern, friendly staff but the prices are too high for me. For spaghetti with 4 shrimps almost 30.00 euros that's where the fun ends

Nice restaurant with a great view. Be sure to check out the dessert menu ;-)

We had dinner at the Hafensänger restaurant. We ordered panfish with beans in Dijon mustard sauce and fried potatoes (€26.30) and pork fillet with pepper cream sauce and fried potatoes (€25.90). We both agreed that this was not a feat of glory on the part of the chef. Both all the fish fillets and the pork fillet were fried to death. It's inexplicable to me how something like this can happen when the number of guests is low (when we came there were 3 of us occupied tables). The fried potatoes and the carrots from the pork medallion were ok. , the pepper cream sauce and the Dijon mustard sauce were very good. The beans were in my opinion unseasoned, no salt, no pepper, no savory or thyme. Summary: You should come here to enjoy the beautiful view with delicious drinks.

Very nice atmosphere and really delicious food

We liked it and the crab soup was very good. Gladly again.

We were sitting in the Hafensänger (Dornumersiel) in bad weather at the start of our short holiday and had just had our first meal. The food made us forget the weather. It was completely successful, tasty and plentiful. The waitresses were very friendly and professional. Good thing we had a reservation! After a sporting event the dining room was well filled (1900h) later you would have been able to get a seat even without it. The crab soup at the beginning had plenty of ingredients. It was a bit too “sour” for me, but my wife really enjoyed it. Afterwards there was pan fish and cutter plaice "Büsum" - i.e. with bacon and crabs. Both dishes were very tasty and plentiful. I can't tell what was more on the plate, the bacon, or the shrimp. The price is absolutely justified. Fresh products and no convenience goods. Finally, a Frisian spirit - with a saying! The service staff were still very customer-oriented, friendly, without fights or cramps. Thanks for the highlight - it almost made us forget about the bad weather if we hadn't sat by the window 🤣.

Nice, simple restaurant on the dike. The spacious terrace invites you to linger, ideal for a sundowner.

Unfortunately only 4 out of 5 In the summer it's just a greenhouse when it's hot Poor ventilation Food is top Service ok but not friendly

Great sea view, really nice atmosphere. Apparently only 1 waiter for the outside terrace, was very busy. A bit confusing when we were there. But nice and friendly despite the stress! Somehow all the guests had bread with them? From the house. We hadn't received anything, it was probably forgotten. We had Labskaus and Panfish. Panfish platter was super tasty and a lot. Labskaus, well. The salad on the plate, which for me is not part of the rennet dish, was actually a gap filler. As a fish side dish, 1 tablespoon of crab and a small piece of herring. Everything is very little. I know it differently. Labskaus was very watery.

Service was friendly, the view in the restaurant was nice...The interior was normal. Price/performance ratio for food/drinks doesn't fit at all! You had to look for the schnitzel, the potatoes and the carrots convenience products, the pepper sauce, Asparagus was okay, bought hollandaise (I personally like it though) For just under 26 euros per dish, I can expect a little more. Paid a total of 70 euros...😳 For me the restaurant is completely overrated! By the way, you can clearly see in the pictures that convenience products are used and the pepper sauce was not available.

The terrace with a view of the beach and sea is very cozy. There was only one star for the food because we didn't eat ANYTHING, we just drank something and enjoyed the sun.

Were there for the first time on our short vacation. Food, ambience and service were great, highly recommended, everything was great. And great view

Killer view, friendly service, food good to average. Only my son's burger was kind of bad (opinion from three testers) - it tasted like ready-made meat patties from a discount store. A pity!

Wonderful location, good food (lamb), nice staff

Recommended for the view alone. Very nice staff and good food.

Nice location with view, good service, food is well presented and tasty

Manageable menu. The food was attractively prepared and served quickly. Both food and drinks are overpriced.

Beautiful view, nice food. However, the service and quality of the food could be better.

So that was the Hafensänge... The waitress did everything right! Unfortunately, the performance of the kitchen was not at the same level. Unfortunately, cold plates also put you in a bad mood when eating asparagus and rack of lamb (cooked to perfection). The tennis balls (potatoes), probably from the bag, accompanied, as I said, the cold sauce. You could please limit the use of Tetra products to your Hamburg customers. It is rare that such a magnificent view (the best on the entire coast) influences the view and perception of the guests so much. Greetings Ralf and Traude (Traude will not come back)

On May 1st we "fought" there by bike for coffee and cake, great joy: there was a nice spot available on the upper outdoor terrace with a beautiful view of the kite festival. Then big disappointment: cake “sold out”. At 3:15 p.m. Incredible! There are frozen cakes there anyway, which is easy to keep in stock. So went somewhere else. Of course, the harbor singer is no longer the safe place to go...

Very nice restaurant with a great view. Thank you for the friendly service. Unfortunately, during my last visit I tipped over a glass and broke it. I was helped immediately and brought a new drink.

Great restaurant in a very nice location, had a fantastic lunch there. There was fresh asparagus and actually 1 pound as stated on the menu. And the service was excellent.

It's not about the harbor singer, everything is great there! The beach access is worth mentioning. This is NOT access to the Bundesbank vault.... 😞

Unfortunately we cannot agree with the positive reviews. With a Büsumer style plaice we expect a plaice with crab meat. Two undersized plaices were served with lots of bacon and a teaspoon of mini crabs hidden in the bacon. The dish cost 30 euros 10 cents, there was a small. Salad plate included, does not correspond to the price-performance ratio. It's a shame about our hard-earned money. We exclude the staff from this criticism.

A delicious meal & drink with a view of the beach.

Very nice restaurant with a great view of the beautiful North Sea. The food gets four stars and everything else gets five. I would love to come back / Attention: pre-order a table during the season :)

Even if you give one star less, it doesn't mean it's bad. Maybe I was just annoyed by my hunger, the lack of peace and the rush of people longing for a vacation. All in all: again and again!

It was OK. Price performance ratio has changed more towards the price.

Very good food. Crisp fries, well-seasoned sauces, delicious fish. The olive oil in the starter and the spice mix are great. Very nice service and special requests are taken into account. Gladly again:)

The harbor singer always outdoes himself! The view is indescribable, I also like the interior design. I'm a big fan of all products printed with 'Hafensänger', which makes the ambience even nicer than it already is. The food is delicious and very nicely prepared.

We stopped here for dinner during the Easter holidays. For a restaurant in this location, we were very positively surprised that, on the one hand, the price was absolutely within the usual range and, on the other hand, it also served really tasty food and was not sold solely on the location. The view of the sea is really fantastic. It's worth making a reservation because it's often very crowded here - especially when the terrace isn't open yet. We both had the Deichburger, which was a bit too big, but otherwise tasted really good. The fries were seasoned very tasty. The service was very nice and attentive!

Food is quite expensive but very tasty.

The 'Hafensänger' is located directly at the Dornumersiel harbor and offers a very nice view. Directly opposite is the island of Langeoog, to the left of it is the smaller island of Baltrum and with a bit of luck you can see the eastern part of Norderney on the far left. The staff was very attentive, friendly and helpful. The service was great and we were absolutely satisfied. Conclusion: A must for anyone who is on holiday or on a day trip there.

Fries are good, Bratwurst roll is OK too. Hamburger is also recommended. Kibblinge are totally overpriced and not really tasty. Given the price, I expected something different. Generally very expensive, 1 ketchup, mayo, etc. is pretty bad. Staff is friendly.

Unfriendly staff, the Camemberts were rotten. When pointed out that they already tasted fermented, only an alternative was offered, no shocked behavior, no real apology... as if they knew that the cheese was no longer good.

Very friendly staff. Delicious food and a fantastic ambience. Thank you very much for this great afternoon

Very nice location, good food and drinks, friendly and courteous service, would be happy to come again

Small but fine selection of dishes. Great view over the beach, harbor and North Sea. Be sure to reserve the best window seat.

Great restaurant with a sensational view of the sea and harbor. The food is delicious and the price-performance ratio, top quality ingredients and workmanship make the visit a culinary delight, the service is great and the staff are very courteous and friendly.

We always enjoy going to Hafensänger and it is always a highlight. The service is great, the food was always delicious and the view is just amazing.

Very nice restaurant with fantastic all-round views. But the food. When I'm at the North Sea I only eat fish (in all varieties). Here I ordered pan fish. The three types of fish were probably from the day before; dried out to the point of no longer working. And for €34, you don't need to say anything more about it.

Wonderful ambience with a great view of the North Sea and the beach. The food is very tasty and the employees are super nice and accommodating. The prices are absolutely fine and reasonable - even special requests are taken into account.

Right on the harbor with a very nice view, food was very good and the staff was very friendly, pets allowed

We asked politely at 5:30 p.m. if there was still a table for two people & a small child. This was answered with a disinterested no from the lady behind the desk. There were maybe 3 tables occupied in the entire upper part of the restaurant. The others (without signage) are supposedly reserved. We asked kindly if we could come back a little later, but we were also told no, everything was full and the third question, whether we could take something to eat with us, was also answered no. Answering like that doesn't invite you to come back another time. A pity!

Very good fish and the best (Dich) burger far and wide. Very nice and good service. With a fantastic North Sea view and proximity to the beach. Andy and Kerstin

Very friendly staff and good menu...tasted excellent

A very pleasant and helpful staff. Thanks for the help in finding a nice Christmas market in the area 👍💚🍀😊

We were there on Boxing Day. Despite booking well in advance, our reservation was not secure. At the beginning of the meal we were given neither bread nor butter, the waiter had forgotten. The fries were too salty, the pork was tough and the chicken schnitzel contained a relatively large vein of blood. The red sauce also seemed to have been made with Instand powder (sodium glutamate?), or at least it tasted that way. I don't know if it's due to the Christmas rush, but I was quite disappointed, especially since it's not priced like fast food. What's worth it is the view, nice overlooking the harbor/beach and the restaurant is also modern and clean.

Vorspeisensalat war OK. Deichburger mit Pommes war von der Menge her völlig ausreichend. Leider waren Pommes und Burger leicht versalzen. Die mitbestellten Fischgerichte sahen deutlich besser aus.
