Kranichrast in Zingst

Sehr nette Bewirtung bei netten Gästen. Die Unhöflichkeit der Gäste lässt man sich nicht gefallen, was auch gut so ist. Essen auch sehr lecker und reichhaltig, kommen gerne wider.

Nice little inn with charm. The food was good, but the service was a little grumpy. No smile on the lips. Dogs are allowed in the inn.

Nice service with a willing and courteous attitude, highly recommended, the only drawback was that the schnitzel wasn't quite good...

So it's no wonder that there are only almost good reviews here. Bad reviews are reported to Google as defamation. We wanted to eat in this restaurant on October 5th, 2024... with advance notice. When we were there (with 2 children) we were rudely turned away... very unfriendly woman.

Dieses Lokal ist überhaupt nicht zu empfehlen, es sei denn man möchte sich mit dem Serviceleiter im Empfang anlegen. Die Kommunikation mit dem Herrn ist nicht auf Kundenorientierung ausgelegt. Das arrogante Verhalten am Telefon zeigt mir, er braucht und will auch keine Kunden. Bisher waren wir in unseren Urlauben immer dort und haben mit 5 Personen jeden Abend mindestens 250€ ausgegeben. Das hat sich für die Zukunft erledigt.

We (4 people) wanted to spend a cozy evening here today. The reason for the selection was the good recessions. Unfortunately a big mistake and Unfortunately I have to agree with all the negative reviews. Sad 😢 but true! When we arrived we weren't really welcomed. After a lot of back and forth, we finally got a table. The service was not only curt, but there was a complete lack of friendliness and we didn't feel welcome. It stayed that way until the end, with the exception of a younger service lady with a foreign accent. Not only did she have a smile, but she was overall friendly. During our visit There was no harmony at all, we were processed quickly and carelessly - like in a large canteen. The food was ok, but nothing more. Any amateur cook can do it just as well. Our conclusion: Fast tourist processing at overpriced prices. Unfortunately, this restaurant has nothing to do with good gastronomy. Good service - good staff in these times is probably not available here either. We cannot recommend this restaurant. It's just disappointing.

Very nice service except for the boss, who is friendliness personified

Very nice service and good tasty food. Price performance ok

Great food, nice hosts, very good value for money

Great value for money...you just need to bring a little time with you. But ok, a small talk is always possible. So I recommend it.

The four of us were very lucky to get one of the last free tables. Unfortunately it was our last evening in Zingst, otherwise we would certainly have returned again. The food was fantastic, Babett's service was friendly, approachable and attentive, and the drinks were delicious. We had schnitzel, pan and fish, all dishes were delicious and the portions were more than sufficient.

Friendly staff, wonderful cuisine, highly recommended.

Wir wurden recht unfreundlich zum warten vor die Tür geschickt. Und draußen warteten wir mind. 10 Minuten ohne das jemand uns auf den aktuellen Stand gebracht hat. Essen war so lala. Kinderfreundlich gleich null!

Very good cuisine, staff and ambience. Absolutely recommended. You don't really need anything more to feel good! Thank you for “very good food”!

The food was very tasty. We had the fish platter from the menu. A pleasure 😋 The service staff served us really attentively and friendly👌 We felt very comfortable in the nostalgic, cozy atmosphere. We were completely satisfied with our choice 🙂

Rarely eaten so well. Absolutely recommended. Whether fish or meat, they can do it. Very nice and professional service too.

Delicious food and attentive, friendly service

Hello, we had a herring stew with fried potatoes and a fish soup. Both were very tasty and the price-performance ratio was right.

Great ambience, very tasty food, friendly staff, away from the hustle and bustle

So inviting that you would like to stay longer. We had the daily recommendation tried salmon fillet, cod, bacon, beans, dill sauce and fried potatoes. Super tasty 😋

The food is excellent, but some of the staff are unfortunately very unfriendly. We were sent to the door because there didn't seem to be any free tables. However, there is a counter with a bar stool where we could have been offered to sit and wait for a free table. We preferred not to wait at the door and went to another restaurant. The big gentleman, who seems to be the boss, still has to work a lot on being friendly.

Very nice restaurant, the service staff is very friendly and nice, the food is absolutely great. A pleasure

The food was very, very good. Staff super friendly. Waiting times can be longer, but they are okay for the quality that comes. Flair: 2000s spa flair. It has something rustic and fits here. If you want some really good food you should go here. If you're a little younger and maybe even have a tattoo, the older audience will look at you strangely. This has nothing to do with the store. Only with the guests he attracts. Oh well: dog friendly

NIE NIE WIEDER !! Wir sind wirklich schockiert über den unhöflichen Umgang, den wir in diesem Restaurant erlebt haben. Es ist für uns unverständlich, wie die positiven Bewertungen zustande kommen.?? Wir wollten mit 6 erwachsenen Personen einen schönen Abend mit gutem Essen erleben. Eine telefonische Reservierung war nicht möglich. Man teilte uns mit, es seien in Moment noch mehrere Tische frei, wenn wir zeitnah kommen, hätten wir gute Chancen, einen freien Tisch zu bekommen. 15 Minuten später sind wir im Kranichrast angekommen und wir wurden regelrecht mit Geschrei beim Betreten des Restaurants vom Inhaber unfreundlich und gereizt herausgeworfen. So ein respektloses Verhalten gegenüber Gästen haben wir noch nicht erlebt. Es ist eine Sache, wenn es in einem Restaurant Stress gibt, aber Gäste so unhöflich rauszuwerfen geht gar nicht. Wir werden dieses Restaurant definitiv nicht noch einmal besuchen und kann es niemandem empfehlen, der Wert auf guten Service und respektvollen Umgang legt. Unser Fazit: Personalschulungen in dieser Region wären sukzessiv empfehlenswert. NUE NIE

Ziemlich ernüchternd, Wir waren vor einpaar Jahren schon einmal da und hatten das Restaurant in guter Erinnerung. Nicht viel von geblieben! Auf Nachfrage des Anzündens der Kerze auf dem Tisch, Antwort des Kellners, er ist Nichtraucher und hat kein Feuerzeug. Ich dachte, es wäre ein Scherz und es käme in den nächsten Minuten jemand mit einem Feuerzeug an den Tisch. Nichts geschah. Die Scholle war einfach nur trocken und totgebraten. Gemütlichkeit und gutes Essen, fehl am Platz. Der Gast ist ein geduldeter Besucher.

As always, very good cuisine and friendly service. One of our favorite restaurants in Zingst.

Die Bedienung war sehr gestresst. Dort war auch wirklich sehr viel los. Trotzdem kann man sich mache Sprüche sparen. Uns wurde der Hochzeitstag sehr vermiest. Mein Zander war gut. Beilagen flach und ideenlos. Bratkartoffeln waren nur matschig. Salat nicht zu empfehlen. Schade

A greeting to the kitchen team. Thanks for the very good food. There was really a lot to do during the days and yet every plate looked well prepared, the taste was also very well coordinated and the quality was good. The service was also very well coordinated. Only recommended. Price, performance is right.

The friendliness of the staff is underground. We sat at a table full of drafts and asked the waitress to change tables twice after other tables became available. She said twice, that won't work and they'll just sit here, My fried potatoes were lukewarm and grayish in color. The fish was OK. We wouldn't go to this restaurant again.

The food was okay but not great, but the service was terrible, especially for Poles. The menu is only in German and the staff does not or does not want to speak English, and is discriminatory against Poles. One person from my group started smoking in the garden (there were ashtrays on the tables and there were only us in the garden) and was asked to leave the restaurant, but when the Germans came and the garden was full, they smoked at the tables without any reaction from the staff. The portions brought to us were smaller than those given to the Germans. I definitely do not recommend using this place if you are not German!

We asked for a reservation but it was refused. The welcome was very unfriendly, all the tables inside were free! We were still instructed to sit at a very small table for two instead of sitting at a table for four. We wanted to eat a starter, main course + dessert with a good bottle of wine and possibly a second bottle, we went there based on a recommendation. We immediately left the unfriendly restaurant. No recommendation for this unfriendliness

Wir hatten um Reservierung im Innenbereich gebeten, Reservierungen wurden abgelehnt. Bei Eintritt wurden wir schon höchst unfreundlich empfangen soweit man überhaupt von Empfang sprechen kann. Im Innenraum waren nur 2 kleine Tische besetzt ansonsten war alles frei so dass wir uns einen Tisch für 4 Personen ausgesucht hatten da wir Vorspeise/ Hauptspeise mit einer guten Flasche Wein den Abend genießen wollten. Daraufhin wurden angewiesen einen einen Tisch für 2 Personen nehmen, die ziemlich beengt waren. Wir gehen im Urlaub jeden Tag essen, meist zwischen 90,-€- 100,-€ aber der Service muss stimmen. Wir können von diesem Lokal nur abraten, diese unpersönliche unverschämte unfreundliche Art haben wir noch nie erlebt

Very nice atmosphere. Friendly service. Food great. We were very satisfied.

It was really delicious. The service was very friendly to us. We were welcomed with our dog. Highly recommended. From 6 p.m. people line up to get in there. I've never seen anything like that before.

Very good service! Fish was spot on Very nicely prepared Outdoor terrace functionally furnished We will come again

We went for dinner today. Terrace fully occupied except for a bench for 8 people. But that only works for 8 people. Only tables inside. So put it there. After 10 minutes, two tables became available on the terrace. When asked if we could move to the terrace, we received a mushy negative answer: That's not possible! The food we ordered took about 45 minutes. We've been there several times this year, so today was the last time. Unfortunately, I can't tolerate that much kindness.

Zu dritt haben wir uns um 16 Uhr am 31.08.2024 im Restaurant getroffen. Es gab noch genügend Platz im Biergarten. Die Bedienung war in 2 Minuten mit den Speisekarten und Getränkekarten am Tisch. Es wurde ausführlich von den Tagesangeboten berichtet. Die Bestellung der Getränke kam zügig. Das Essen kam nach 10 Minuten, was schon sehr schnell ist. Es hat uns allen gut geschmeckt. Mehrmals wurde gefragt ob alles in Ordnung ist und ob wir noch etwas wünschen. Alles in allem können wir die Lokalität empfehlen.

Nice atmosphere with a small pond in front, including water lilies and frogs. Not on the main mile of Zingst :-)

Very unfriendly staff, hospitality is a foreign concept. Food partly inedible.

Great restaurant in all respects. An experience in Zingst.

The cake and coffee are of very good quality. The staff is very friendly, except for the older lady. Unfortunately, it does nothing to make you feel welcome. And alas, it starts to rain: it is strictly forbidden to sit down in the dining room, even though there is enough space there. Original tone of the lady: we don't do any implementations here, if it rains, then it rains! We're avoiding this "inn" now.

August2024. Very friendly staff. Absolutely fair prices! The quality and quantity are absolutely great. Very happy again!

The food was very tasty, unfortunately we had to wait a long time for our food and the staff could be a bit friendlier.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to take the positive reviews seriously. The Kranihrast house seems to be doing well. Unfriendly. Derogatory. Families have no place here. That is the impression the employees give. It's crazy that something like this lasts. A shame for Zingst. Find another restaurant, the food can't be that good you have to do this to yourself.

Good food in the middle of the village and not too crowded in the late afternoon. Prices local. Location very clean and looks tidy!

Absolute recommendation. The food was delicious, everything was freshly prepared. We had to wait a bit for a table outside, but it was really worth it. Unfortunately I have to deduct a star for the service, friendliness leaves something to be desired. But the food made up for it.

The food itself was good but we had to wait an hour for food with a small child.

Update August 16, 2024 Always enjoy the crane rest. A little out of the way but great service and great food. In the meantime there are also enough water bowls available for the dogs. Today we had a combination of catfish and pike perch with savoy cabbage and once the pike perch with fried potatoes. Delicious. Visited for the first time today. Of course we sat on the terrace in this weather. Dogs are allowed. There was a deduction for not offering the dog water. Food was great. Fish platter and halibut on cauliflower with mustard sauce and fried potatoes. Freshly prepared with waiting time. Totally ok. Priced in the upper middle range. Fits. Gladly again.

The two of us were there at around 6:45 p.m. and initially had to wait in front of the restaurant for over half an hour for an outside seat. Our problem, as indoor spaces became available much more quickly. We were then assigned a table for four on the beautiful outdoor terrace. We did not prefer multi-person occupancies, as some reviews say. When ordering, we were initially only able to order drinks, although we of course already knew what we wanted to eat during the long wait in front of the restaurant. Only the boss took orders. After ordering, it took almost 45 minutes for the food to arrive. This always came in batches for several tables. We saw a couple who waited a good hour for their food. The food itself was very good (fish platter, cod fillet). The service was generally friendly, but did not seem to be organized efficiently. While only the (presumably) boss took orders and collected them, other service staff stood their ground. With a little reorganization everything could certainly go a little faster. Still recommended because the food tasted really good.

We had to wait a long time for a table and food. Staff were already jaded by the rush.

Very friendly service and delicious food. We had zander in a duet. Bean salad was very tasty. Unfortunately the fried potatoes were only lukewarm. I deducted one point because we waited a long time for food.

We had lunch there with our wedding party. The waitress took great care of us. The food was plentiful and good. Price performance very good

Had dinner there with a wedding party. Staff super friendly.

Very good and beautiful economy 👍 with good traditional cuisine. We were there 3 times and were very satisfied each time. Everything we ordered and received was great. Very friendly and attentive staff 👍 If you sit outside in the winter garden, you can immediately see a pond, where a lot is going on😉 We'd love to come back. Thanks to the whole team. Unfortunately it is also very full and you may have to wait until a table becomes available again. but that’s it🤷‍♂️

We ate here 3 times during our stay in Zingst. Every time the food and service were excellent. It was never a problem getting a table for 4 people (high season, evening). We can only thank you, we really enjoyed it.

Extremely positively surprised by the crane rest after us, for whatever reason?! have never stopped there in recent years. The fish in various variations is delicious, the portions are very digestible and the service is friendly and appreciative. We would love to come back.

Very tasty fish dishes, attentive staff.

Super nice staff and the fish platter was simply incredibly good! The price-performance ratio is right here! The restaurant is STILL very dog-friendly, but you should also keep your dog under control, which unfortunately only very few owners in Zingst (and in all other places) managed to do this summer. The owners of the constant barkers and the table feeders are welcome to feel addressed! 👍🏼😡 I hope this category doesn't completely ruin everything and you can still go there with your dog. We sat outside and felt very comfortable there, with our calm dog under the table. Thank you for the pleasant time and the friendly hospitality! We would like to come again! 😊

Unfortunately the portions are too small. Fish platter for 22 euros, very simple but tasty. Child (12) is nowhere near full, despite choosing a meal for 19 euros.

Good food and very friendly service.

The star is only there to describe our dinner, there was a man at the counter who hadn't learned the words "good evening", etc. We were unlucky enough to have the oldest service person. When we asked if we could leave out the dill sauce, we got an unfriendly no. The candle wasn't allowed to be lit because of the high outside temperature (20°), I'm laughing my ass off. The beer was warm, the food wasn't as we ordered it. The train station character would have been improved. Anyone who wants really bad and unfriendly food is here exactly right. When we went out without a tip, my wife received a few nice words on the way because she mentioned the shortcomings. What do the Westphalians say? Too stupid as a person and too small as a pig.

You have to wait a long time for the food, but it's actually worth it.

Really great, somewhat hidden restaurant

Nice harbor atmosphere, delicious food

You can't reserve a table at the Kranihrast inn, so it can happen, as happened to us, that you have to wait a few minutes until you get a free seat. But it was really worth it, the food was delicious, the staff were also super nice and really friendly 😊

Worst service ever! After registering for 3 people at the entrance, I was allowed to choose a table outside. After 2 minutes an unfriendly service person came and asked if I was alone and who would have allowed me to sit there since only full tables were accepted. After I explained that the family would be there within 10 minutes, the even more unfriendly service person came from the entrance again and asked me to leave because they had enough guests waiting in front of the door!? Anyone who treats guests with such arrogance should not be surprised if the guests stay away at some point!

We had a very nice waiter and the food was extremely good. We got a place with a dog right next to the pond. We were a little biased based on the negative reviews, but these have not been confirmed.

Great atmosphere with a small pond + terrace...great quality of food...friendly...etc...recommended

We were basically thrown out again when we entered because only two of five people were there to get the table. The other three people followed within the next ten minutes, which the staff greatly displeased, saying “then you can leave again”. The staff was very unfriendly and the food was sometimes lukewarm We have eaten there at least three times every year over the course of about 10 years, but this time we were very disappointed and will not visit this restaurant again.

What do you eat on the coast? Fish! And it's very tasty here. Everything fits and the price/performance ratio is also very good. We'll definitely see each other again 😃☀️

I've been there three times. Twice it was ok. Third, completely unfriendly service. It was like casting for the movie "Schildler's List 2": Tür, schnell, raus.

Ate very tasty, were there 3 times on vacation. The cod was excellent.

Very tasty fish dishes. You have to wait a bit after ordering but it's worth it as the food is rich and very tasty. You can't make a reservation.

Nice service, super delicious food. It went quickly and we spontaneously got a table with six people. Cozy, with a terrace. We recommend

Great restaurant, the food is excellent, it sometimes takes a little longer for the food to be brought out, but the restaurant is always full. The quality is top and the prices are reasonable. Always happy, whether fish or meat. The staff is very attentive and friendly.

Great table for 7, super nice service and really delicious food, fish and schnitzel. We are truly blessed.

No reservation, but still got a place for dinner. Tasty dishes served quickly, thanks for the good service.

Family atmosphere, nice attentive staff. High quality food and drinks. RECOMMENDED.

Food and service… Everything was top😊 Happy to come back!

Very tasty fish dishes, at fair prices. Highly recommended - unfortunately no table reservation possible

Zum Wohlfühlen gehören zwei Dinge. Gutes Essen sowie das Ambiente wie zum Beispiel ein schöner Tisch und freundliches Personal. Das erste trifft voll zu. Das können wir gerne bestätigen.Das Zweite ist eine totale Katastrophe. Eine Reservierung ist nicht möglich. (Aussage bei telefonischer Anfrage einer Reservierung) Beim Eintritt nach Aufruf (solange ist Warten vor der Türe angesagt) stehen auf allen Tischen Reservierungsschilder und man bekommt einen Tisch zugewiesen. Das bedeutet man wird „platziert“, eine frei Auswahl ist nicht möglich. Das ist verständlich, wenn die Gaststätte voll belegt ist. Allerdings darf man sich zu zweit auch nicht an einen Vierertisch setzen, selbst wenn das Lokal leer ist. Zwei Personen Zweiertisch Ende. Die sind jedoch so klein, dass das Essen mit Getränk fast nicht auf den Tisch passt. Angeboten wird die Terrasse (allerdings nur wenn die Gaststätte fast leerer ist) zur freien Tischauswahl. Aber wer möchte dort als Nichtraucher beim Essen zwischen Hunden zugequalmt werden? Zwei Damen, die gerne einen anderen Zweiertisch als den zugewiesenen gehabt hätten bekam von der Bedienung wörtlich gesagt :“ Entweder Sie nehmen diesen Tisch oder Sie können wieder gehen „ Die Damen haben sich für das Letzter entschieden. Die beiden weiblichen Bedienungen und der Chef müssten gemeinsam ein Seminar zum Umgang mit Gästen besuchen.Wir denken, die Zeiten in der Gastronomie haben sich so weit geändert um wissen zu müssen, dass das beste Essen den unfreundlichen und unzeitgemäßen Umgang mit Gästen nicht aufwiegen kann. Die Gastronomie lebt von den Gästen und nicht umgekehrt.

Good, nice service. Good seating planning. Often crowded inside and outside, so you have to be flexible. Not too long of a wait.

Great restaurant..top service..and very tasty food..we felt very comfortable

Very nice team, short waiting time after ordering. Unfortunately, reservations are not possible, but waiting and queuing for free seats is definitely worth it. Simply great food.

Waren 2x während unserem Urlaub zufriedene Gäste. Bekamen ohne Reservierung zur Hauptzeit jeweils einen schönen Tisch auf der Terrasse, trotz grossem Hund. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Die Speisen waren lecker, die Weinauswahl gut. Das Preis Leistungsverhältnis im Vergleich zu anderen Restaurants in Zingst sehr gut. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

A very well-kept restaurant, with friendly service and excellent food. Simply great.

A bit hidden in the residential area, but worth it. Nice staff, very good food, away from the tourist stream.

The Kranihrast restaurant in Zingst is a recommended restaurant. Especially for lovers of fish dishes and those looking for a place with good service and a pleasant atmosphere.

The menu is a little more than just clear. Vegetarian dishes can be found as well as meat and fish dishes. The portions were quite large and everyone enjoyed it. I found it relatively expensive for what was offered. the service was a bit disappointing. When my partner asked if he could swap for another side dish, the answer was an ice-cold "no." In terms of the ambience, it seemed like it had been left somewhere in the 90s, but you sit nicely next to a mini pond.

We got a table for two people without a reservation. Super nice and attentive service. The food was very tasty. However, the waiting time was borderline. We forgive the kitchen because the restaurant was really busy.

Food very tasty, portions sufficient Service was very friendly. Restaurant was busy, we had to wait a few minutes, but that wasn't a problem.

Very good food. Friendly service. We always enjoy coming back and have been doing so for several years.

We were there at rush hour in the evening. Then it's too hectic for us. There is still room for improvement in terms of taste. Vegetables were cold. But I immediately got a new portion of vegetables. It was then correspondingly warm.

Wonderful restaurant with a small but completely sufficient menu. We come here regularly to eat. Good portions, delicious dishes, as we have already tried almost all the dishes on the menu, our recommendation 😀 We have always been lucky and managed to get a place on the terrace, so we can only judge the terrace. We'll be back, thank you very much

Wir warteten über 20 Minuten und als wir eigentlich dran waren, holte die Platzanweiserin wiederholt nach uns Anstehende vor und ließ uns weiter stehen. Argument: nur Mehrpersonentische sind frei, wir Dreiergruppe müssten warten bis... Man hat den Eindruck, der Stellenwert der Tische geht dem der Gäste vor! Ungeeignete Bedienung infolge Personalmangels? Nie wieder Kranichrast!

Gladly again and again. We were here every day for 1 week. Sometimes we had to wait a bit, but no problem. The service was always very friendly and the food is great. Keep it up 👍🏻

Food like in a 5-star restaurant. The whole thing in a beautiful old fisherman's house. Coincidentally, James Bond is in the background. Wonderfully gracious service. I love it. The prices are actually too cheap for the experience. Highly Recommended.

Als ich die Gaststätte betrat, waren alle Tische im Aussenbereich und Innenbereich besetzt. Ich wartete noch auf meine Frau und fragte höflich nach zwei Plätzen und wann evtl. ein Tisch frei werden würde. Kurz angebunden und übelst gelaunt mit ekeligem Tonfall, bei so einem vollen Haus sehr unverständlich, vielleicht 15 bis 20 Minuten. Dann sagte ich, Ok , dann warte ich hier und hätte gerne schon einmal etwas zu trinken. Da standen einige Barhocker vor der Theke. Hätte eigentlich warten können. Antwort kurz und schnippisch: Bitte gehen sie vor die Tür und warten draußen. Also bitte. Nennt man so etwas Gastlichkeit? Auch wenn das Essen gut sein sollte, kann ich leider nicht weiter empfehlen. Hätte auch ungenügend+ gegeben. Schade das die Menschlichkeit auf der Strecke bleibt.

We spontaneously stopped by the Kranihrast inn and were very satisfied with everything - the food, the service and the beautifully landscaped garden/pond. The prices are quite expensive, but a visit is still recommended :)

Sehr leckeres Essen. Alles außerordentlich sauber und gepflegt. Das Personal ist schnell und freundlich zur Stelle.
