Pier 51 Restaurant in Hannover

Ambience friendly, food excellent, staff competent and courteous

The food was excellent, the ambience was more like a train station atmosphere, but I've also experienced worse. All in all, I can recommend the store with a clear conscience!

I can't say anything about the food, we just had something to drink. nice restaurant with a great view of the lake.

Very good establishment located right on the autobahn next to Frankfurt airport

great location on the Maschsee. Ambience is great. There's no kitchen on Sundays (for whatever reason). Only drinks and cakes available. The cake was ok, unfortunately nothing more (somehow it seemed like it had been thawed). The staff was friendly and tried hard, but it gave the impression that there was a lack of perspective and structure. Mental arithmetic wasn't really my strength either. But overall ok due to the location.

The food deserves a star, especially the fantastic sauce!! Only recommended **

I've been going there with my family for over 20 years, or before I even existed. Very tasty food, with large portions, there is a lot of good food here for the same price, where with others you get 2 mini pieces of meat, a small slice of sauce and a potato. Would give it 11 out of 10 if possible!

A nice place to relax on the Maschsee, e.g. B. on the terrace and this is accompanied by good food

Very special location: loud, inflexible kitchen. Regardless of whether it is meat or fish, everything swims in the same green sauce and is topped with salty mushrooms. Had great expectations, unfortunately disappointed.

Nice bar by the lake to have a drink 👍🏻

I won't be back, vegetarians are not welcome at lunchtime.

Great! We organized a 3-course team meal for 34 people at Pier51 and were thrilled from the planning to the menu! Very customer focused, flexible and friendly and the food was simply a DREAM! The ambience was great and a little oasis, especially in the big city! Thank you, dear team from Pier51 - if we hadn't come so far away and only come to Hanover for one event, we would be regular guests!

Enjoyed wheat beer on the terrace in wonderful autumn weather

Top food, in a cozy atmosphere right on the Maschsee

Nice . Top location. Again and again

It was a dream, we were invited 25 people, and it worked and tasted great!! Thanks to the team!!!

An exceptionally beautiful location and with a fantastic sunset we had a wonderful celebration. The Pier51 team made this event an unforgettable evening. From start to finish the service was outstanding, attentive and always friendly. The food as a buffet and the wines were super tasty. The food was always refilled quickly so that no one had to wait for the food.

Pier51 was a nice experience. We ordered a table at 8 PM, and heard very soon that the kitchen was to close at 9 PM. Therefore the service was too quick for a casual business dinner with customers. They were still finishing their aperitif cocktail during their main course. Otherwise, food was great and portions elaborate. So my recommendation is either to have the kitchen open until a later time, or to book your table earlier !

We were guests in Hanover and wanted to eat something at Pier 51. The time was 5 p.m. Unfortunately, they didn't respond to us at all. It was only when I asked my partner to ask if we could get a menu that we were told that the evening business only starts at 6 p.m. It wasn't anything more than a nice location.

Excellent restaurant, with very friendly service. Everything delicious and a great view

That impressed me positively.wow. l

Very tasty but also large portions.

You can enjoy the end of the day there

We recently celebrated our wedding at Pier 51. The Pier did a great job: the food was great, the service was great too and the ambience was great! The pier adhered to all agreements and was absolutely transparent and fair in terms of pricing. They were always available and implemented our last spontaneous requests very professionally. Even the photo box, which was our sole responsibility and which the pier actually had nothing to do with, was kept running professionally at all times (although changing the photo rolls is really complicated). We would choose the pier again and again :)!

everything, but also everything great

It was a lovely evening with "Oton the audiologists & friends", apart from the people, the ambience was also a dream and the food and drink left nothing to be desired 😊

Wonderful food... tastefully prepared and served with heart during a fantastic sunset on the Maschsee...

Great view from the terrace. Overall we had a nice experience here.

Great restaurant with a really nice atmosphere (very beautiful at sunset🤫) Drinks and food are a bit expensive but it's okay. I recommend Bio spritz

Attentive staff - I was there alone with my dog. It wasn't a problem at all that I took my beer away and my dog ​​was looked after while I was there. Drinks and food are good and you sit in a good atmosphere with a view of the Maschsee.

All the seats inside were occupied We sat outside, very comfortable With a beautiful view

Great view! Service was good but slow.

Great atmosphere, holiday feeling, nice staff, were only there for 1 cocktail 🍸 .... I can't comment on the food, maybe next time, the menu is already inviting :))

As always, the food is fresh and prepared with a lot of love. Thanks so much

So we sat on the wind-protected side in the sun lounge. Splendid. Service was very nice and quick. But we also just had a drink. The view is just beautiful.

Really nicely located. Friendly staff and normal prices. Would love to come back.

Apart from the lake view, don’t expect something extraordinary.

...50% free places, on Thursday July 25th, 2024, at 7:00 p.m. then turned away from duty again at 8:00 p.m. by the boss. Socialism de luxe, based on a shortage of skilled workers. Never again. It would be better to make the premises with this top location available to a non-profit canoe or rowing club and store boats there...

We had a drink, nice ambience, nice view of the Maschsee.

We were outside in the more casual bar cafe area. Great view but it's a bit overpriced for a quasi self service location. The food selection is tasty but extremely limited.

Fantastic food, great atmosphere. The service was exceptional. Christine went out of her way to make us feel taken care of. We will certainly be returning.

A very tasty cappuccino and all the staff are very nice! The owner is also very friendly.

We were there with a group of restaurateurs and had an excellent 4-course meal. The service was great! The beautiful weather was the icing on the cake.

Great location, great service and delicious food. Dessert and wine a little too warm, but these are small things

Had something to drink, nice view, good atmosphere, very nice

Only drank a lattemacciato, but what is worth mentioning is the fantastic view of the Maschsee at sunset.

A family friend and Hanover and Hanover local made a booking at this lovely restaurant for our last night in the city. What a wonderful experience dining on the terrace overlooking the lake just beautiful. We were also treated to a glorious sunset with wonderful clouds and a little lightening. The menu was interesting and the food excellent and plentiful - had to skip any dessert. A great evening. Service friendly and not intrusive. Not an inexpensive dining option but quality reflective of the prices. Very busy on a Tuesday evening so recommend booking. Highly recommended.

We were on the outside terrace of Pier 51 in wonderful weather and had an excellent 4-course meal. The service was also very pleasant.

Also particularly worth mentioning is the courteousness of the staff.

Cozy beer garden with a view of the Maschsee. There is always something to see there. There are small dishes at the kiosk, but the dishes in the Pier Restaurant itself are a little more expensive. Still, it's a nice atmosphere.

Nice restaurant on the Maschsee with friendly staff

A beautiful beer garden directly on the Maschsee with a wonderful view.

It was outstanding! There are 5 stars for the food, service and ambience 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Top food, table on the jetty. Team on the ball

Unfortunately I can't rate the food, just something to drink.

Very nice staff. The food, of course fish, was super tasty 😋

There isn't really any service, you have to get your own drinks and food. Prices are quite high, medium-sized pizza 14 euros, iced tea (from the bottle) around 4 euros. If the Maschsee ambience is worth it to you. On top of that, it was damn crowded outside - I would have expected more space for the prices. The Maschsee is not the Alster. However, the pizza was very good

Very good restaurant with very good service. The location on the Maschsee is also great. Very good management 👍🏻

Unfortunately very unfriendly service. We wanted to eat there with our little daughter and friends. It was forbidden to put an additional chair at a table for four, even though that wouldn't have bothered anyone. Impossible response from the on-site operator. Food and ambience ok...with this customer focus we probably won't go there again...

Always delicious food. Good service. It could be nicer in terms of offerings.

Large portions and a bit too heavy for summer, misses some more light dishes with chanterelles. But overall good service, relaxing atmosphere in a stunning setting right at the lake!!!

The price-performance ratio is right and the service is excellent.

Very nice location, whether outside for a drink or dinner, always recommended. The view of Maschsee, simply relaxing. The pier for a lake tour is also right there.

Nice outdoor terrace, nice atmosphere, but over 15 minutes to place an order and over 30 minutes to wait for a cup of coffee and a piece of cake...sorry, really bad service! :-(

Wonderful view of the Maschsee.

Great location right on the Maschsee. The food was excellent and we had a really great evening with colleagues. The staff was on the ball and very friendly. We will come back in any case.

A beautiful place over the lake! Good atmosphere for romantic people day and night!

Drinks sitting outside with pretzels are ok. Enjoy the view instead

Everything was great, best service, great view and delicious food.. All in all a great deal... 😋😁🤩☀️

A bright room, flooded with light, a view of the Maschsee, very nice furniture and a subtle ambience, make the time in the pier very pleasant,

Very good food, beautiful to look at and reasonably priced. The staff were nice and the environment wonderful.

Went there for dinner today. Wonderful ambience. Very very nice staff. Discreet and yet with a full overview with fast service. The food is simply “delicious”

Wonderful location with excellent food, good service and portions that are remarkable for the quality. We recommend; we were there several times...

We were pleasantly surprised. Ordering a table online is easy. Staff very polite, helpful and accommodating. Short waiting times. All dishes were excellently prepared and the portions were large to generous. Price/performance completely fine. Unfortunately, it was a bit drafty due to the open doors to the outside area.

Very nice restaurant with a terrace by the lake. Reservation is recommended!

Wanted to enjoy the beautiful view of the lake on a Saturday. According to internet research, the restaurant would be open! As guests of the city of Hanover, we looked for the restaurant and a parking space by car. We were all the more annoyed when we received the information from the place that the restaurant would be closed on Saturday. Better internet maintenance would have saved us the journey.

The food was great. Very nice, courteous service. Great ambience, view of the Maschsee, what more could you want? I'd love to come back.

We had reserved a table for a birthday lunch. Our service was very friendly and attentive. The dishes were really very tasty. So we had a great day at the Maschsee!

This is all about the views and setting: reasonably close to the city centre and yet you sit, quite literally, on the lake.

Nice weather, a cold beer and nice service...recommended 👍

Totally rude to us. The kitchen was still open for over half an hour. We were turned away because we had to prepare a society. We would have preferred to eat. You could even have made money that way.

Food, location, service, everything was good

I came across this lakeside restaurant by accident. It has a nice atmosphere and good service. The food is delicious and the portions are sufficient. The most important thing is that it is not expensive👍🏻 Parking is very convenient👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Disappointed. I always enjoyed eating currywurst there (outside). Somehow there were only bratwursts left. I have no idea what's available now. Otherwise it's nice, but the street noise bothers me when I'm chilling out

friendly service, good cake and coffee. A nice atmosphere right on the water.

...a nice place to unwind...no matter what time of day. The drinks are great and well stocked, the service struggles to accommodate an endless number of guests... just bring a little more time... then it works well so far. CHIC AMBIENCE! ALL IN ALL VERY NICE...

We didn't get a seat at Pier 51, even though the restaurant was empty and just opening. There is a reservation and the kitchen cannot accommodate two more people. We were offered the beer garden rather snidely. In the beer garden there was only Pinsa to eat, we ordered and were served very unfriendly by an older lady, the cash register didn't work and a receipt couldn't be issued. At the concession stand a young lady was playing on her cell phone and was annoyed when we tried to pay by card and was told "cash only". We didn't have enough cash with us and had to pay for our drinks online using a QR code with PayPal. We waited a long time for the Pinsa, the salmon version had thick strips of raw salmon on it and cold potato slices that weren't in the oven with the Pinsa...not very tasty, especially not at the high prices. We asked for salt and pepper "we are not allowed to give it out" was the announcement. In short: Thanks for nothing, we visited this store for the last time. I used to often go to Pier 51 with business partners! We were very happy with that, it's a shame what has become of it.

Very nice place again at any time

The waiter was a bit unfriendly but also stressful

Super beautiful and delicious! Very friendly service and great ambience.

A perfect venue. The food was tremendous.

We went for a late lunch with 6 people The table was already waiting for us because we had a reservation. A nicely set table, a menu and an offer to order drinks were immediately presented I won't describe the food because everyone had something different, but I will just say that it was delicious Very solid portions The dessert mix needed some tweaking as not everything was perfect Interesting location by the lake I recommend

Can't rate the food but the service is just terrible. Been there several times and only got something once. The first time there was supposedly a lack of staff and you had to at least go to an empty restaurant. Wait 30 minutes for his cocktails. Today 4 people stood at the bar and did absolutely nothing and after 15 minutes no one came to our table. However, with a stupid grin and a goodbye, we were escorted out when we didn't want to wait any longer. We will never come back and advise everyone against this restaurant. Just arrogant and rude staff.

Unfortunately we are very disappointed. We have been there several times because of the location, beautiful location on the lake with a lot of potential but every time there was a problem with the service. You sit down and wait 10-15 minutes for service, the restaurant was empty. Despite there being few guests, we didn't even receive a menu card. As I said, we were there several times and the same thing every time. Service is simply ZERO and given the prices you should be offering the best service. The restaurant management should pay attention to service and train the staff.

A little more expensive but good portions and very tasty. Were there for lunch

A beautiful location, with a view of the Maschsee. The cake was delicious, the staff was attentive and the decor was very attractive

Delicious food, attentive service and a great view of the Maschsee

Today was a closed company and we stood in front of a locked door. Unfortunately, it is not visible online for guests who just want to stop as they drive past. Too bad, maybe next time.

Upscale ambience. Unfortunately far too expensive for a simple meal.

Unfortunately, we weren't able to get any impressions of Pier 51 due to the closed indoor crowd. We then wanted to order something to drink in the beer garden next door, but when we asked about the possibility of paying with a card and access to the toilet, we were treated very politely by the waiter. They don't think this behavior is particularly hospitable.
