Restaurant & Café Nordlicht in Karlshagen

Here you can eat delicious and authentic food.

We went there for dinner. We had pre-ordered, which is advisable, as the restaurant is very busy. The ambiance is pleasant and the seating is comfortable. The food is delicious and very plentiful. Paid parking is available in the immediate vicinity.

Really good food at a fair price 👍👍👍 Really busy/crowded We couldn't get a table without a reservation, but we were massively disappointed elsewhere! We made a reservation the next day 🙏 The place is known and loved by both locals and tourists for its delicious food. Thank you. 🫶

The Nordlicht is a highlight in Karlshagen. We ate here at the end of our vacation. We had delicious fish dishes, all of which were delicious. The staff were very accommodating and friendly. A perfect experience all around.

For us, one of the best restaurants in Karlshagen. The food was delicious. The price was perfectly reasonable. The hostess was friendly and helpful. We'll be happy to return next time.

The Northern Lights and the Forest Cottage are a delight all round.

Delicious food at fair prices, a very good selection, a pleasant atmosphere, and super friendly service...what more could you want? We always enjoy this restaurant and are already looking forward to our next visit.

We highly recommend this restaurant! The food is incomparably delicious. With the portions, no one goes home hungry. And it's very good value for money. The service is friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, I have to say that this isn't the norm on the island.

There were five of us plus our dog. The food was delicious, arrived relatively quickly, and the portions were generous. Excellent value for money!

Had a Ducksteiner wheat beer and the gurnard fillet. A very tasty drink, and the portion was absolutely fair for the price (€23). 3 fillet strips, a large portion of fried potatoes, a large portion of chanterelle mushrooms, a side salad, and some fruit. Absolutely ☆☆☆☆☆

Last week, six of us ate at the "Nordlicht" restaurant. When ordering, I asked the waitress if the mashed potatoes were homemade, and she replied with a resounding "Yes." Unfortunately, the mashed potatoes were from a bag with completely over-seasoned nutmeg. When I asked her about it, she replied, "Of course it's homemade, I'll bet on it." I come from the restaurant industry, and I let her talk. The chef who came over also insisted that it was homemade. Why, then, over-seasoned with nutmeg? I noticed that you couldn't find a single crumb of potato, and the chef then said, "We do it that way on purpose because the kids only like it that way," blah, blah. I think it's outrageous to lie to your guests' faces. Completely overpriced and lacking in craftsmanship. You go out to eat because you expect something good. Mashed potatoes made from Even my dog ​​won't eat the bag. It's completely unacceptable. You could tell it's puree from a bag. Then we would have ordered something else. I just hope the chef shows his skills to his guests, otherwise it will remain substandard.

The journey was worth it. Simply delicious. The complete opposite of the Kamminke the day before. Fish cooked to perfection, fried potatoes as they should be. Portions were very generous. Keep up the good work. It's worth it. Best regards

Very good service and delicious food. A varied menu.

I can only highly recommend the food.🤩

It's nice, quiet, and peaceful. It's impossible to speak Polish or English here, but... The food is good and the cakes look great. I didn't eat them, but they looked good. The most important thing for us was that you could pay by card.

The "Neptune" fish platter was amazing. The best meal of our stay.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED AND DELICIOUS

Very cozy, very tasty food, highly recommended

Very tasty cuisine, nice ambience and friendly service, highly recommended

We had dinner here, and everyone really enjoyed the food. The service was friendly and professional. The ambiance could be a bit more cozy, but that's a matter of taste, as we all know.

Very popular restaurant, even with locals. Fish is recommended, but meat dishes are also available. Unfortunately, the service could be improved, probably due to a lack of staff. Nevertheless, the welcome and service were friendly.

Very tasty food. Portions are more than sufficient, and the price is right, too.

We went to this truly fantastic restaurant for lunch today. The portions are generous and the food is delicious. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Why do people line up in the evenings? Why can you only get a seat with a reservation, if at all? Why are the portions exceptionally large for a Gernesser? Why is everything so lovingly prepared? Why do people rush out to eat at a northerner's place? Because it's simply good!

Hello, thanks to the team at Nordlicht! We were lucky enough to get a table there twice. Demand is high there, and rightly so! The food is super delicious, although the portions are sometimes a bit large! But the value for money is right there! We'd love to come back next year!

We ate there twice on vacation last week (with four people and with two), and both times it was delicious. The portions are huge, we had to have it packed. The prices are totally reasonable, almost too cheap for the amount you get. We'll be back next time!

Very very tasty, price-performance is top, very nice service, you have to make a reservation or you are lucky 🍀 like we were today

Friendly staff, great atmosphere, delicious food. We'll be back.

I come here to Karlshagen every year for vacation because, among other things, my father lives here. A visit to the Northern Lights is always a must. Good food. Friendly service. A cozy atmosphere. 😁

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A truly heartfelt restaurant – Café Nordlicht in Karlshagen Sometimes, when traveling, you discover a place where everything is just right – and Café Nordlicht in Karlshagen is just such a place. We felt welcome from the moment we arrived. The team is incredibly friendly, warm, and attentive – you immediately sense that they work with passion. The atmosphere is cozy, maritime, yet modern. Perfect for relaxing after a walk on the beach. We opted for the fresh fish dishes – zander, cod, plaice, and a wonderful fish variation. This was accompanied by the homemade aspic, which is truly a culinary highlight. Every bite was a delight – you can taste the freshness and attention to detail. For drinks, we tried the Achterwasser – a regional beer that perfectly complements the fish dishes and rounds off the evening. What particularly impressed us: The overall package is just right here. Freshness, quality, taste, a friendly team, and a beautiful ambiance. No wonder Café Nordlicht receives so many enthusiastic reviews – it's rightfully one of the most popular addresses in Karlshagen. ✨ Our conclusion: • Perfectly prepared fresh fish dishes • Homemade specialties made with love • Friendly, welcoming service • Cozy atmosphere with a holiday feeling We're sure: We'll be happy to come back here again and again! Absolutely recommended for anyone visiting Karlshagen – you're guaranteed to leave Café Nordlicht with a smile.

Very good food at reasonable prices, super-friendly, attentive staff,

We were turned away very rudely, with the words: "All orders arrive at 5:30." It's the tone that makes the difference. I can't possibly know that you should or have to pre-order here. Since they had my favorite dish on the menu and everyone should be given a second chance, I'm giving it 3 stars. They should work on their tone, even when they're under pressure.

A very pleasant atmosphere. Children are also welcome. The food tastes delicious, and there's a little bit of everything. The plates are generously filled, and there are also senior-friendly portions. The price/performance ratio is definitely excellent here!

A very good selection of dishes. Good value for money. Plenty of cakes to choose from.

Delicious cakes and good coffee. I just can't understand why there are so many reservations.

Selected based on reviews. Everything is more like deep frying. But the food tastes great. I really praise the service. Even later in the evening, a smile on my face. .

Very friendly staff. Very tasty food.

Very good value for money; unfortunately, you can't get in without a table reservation... still recommended

We've been coming here for years, top quality, good prices, great service, big compliments to Mrs. Krüger 🙂 always happy to come back!

After booking at short notice, we managed to get a table. We were personally greeted and served in a very well-air-conditioned restaurant. Everyone was well-fed, and our dog was also warmly welcomed. Thank you very much, and keep up the good work.

First of all... The food tasted incredibly delicious!!!... But... The waiter started his act by bumping into the high chair, causing my daughter to get her finger stuck between the chair and the table... It can happen, but after a few tears, everything was fine. The children's plates (French fries, nuggets, and fish sticks) arrived quite quickly... The other three plates, unfortunately, only arrived 21 minutes later. Waiting is one thing, but eating separately isn't pleasant. The empty drinks didn't go unnoticed either... Then we asked for the ice cream menu, which came quite quickly with a nice selection. Unfortunately, we weren't asked if we wanted anything until another 15 minutes later... By then, the kids were out... So yes, a nice multilingual establishment, but with a wait... The prices for the food are OK, but kiba costs significantly more than beer... At least the little one's kiba could/should have been on the house.

The daily lunch special is always recommended. Since it wasn't a beach day, I've returned. I recommend it every year. Friendly service and great food.

A nice restaurant in a winter garden, worth a visit. Nothing special in terms of taste, but really good. What deserves special mention, however, is the portion size. It's truly enormous. This is the first time I've ever been full in a restaurant. Normally, I always have to order a second meal. But I'm certainly not a benchmark. My family had a tough time. That justifies the somewhat higher price.

Very delicious food and friendly staff. Two of us came without a reservation and still managed to get a seat. Reservations are recommended.

We were very satisfied. Dogs 🐕 are also allowed.

Delicious food, always lovingly prepared. Excellent value for money. Very friendly staff. During the season, however, you should reserve a table, as it's usually fully booked.

Highly recommended, great food, great service.

Yes, definitely. The price/performance ratio is very good.

A great place to eat. Friendly staff. Good food.

Unfortunately, the asparagus soup was extremely salty. Despite complaining, they charged for it. The salmon and halibut were incredibly delicious.

Cozy atmosphere, good service and a very tasty and plentiful dinner!

Nettes Lokal mit ordentlichem Essen. Der Fisch war gut zubereitet. Der Service könnte ein klein wenig freundlicher sein, aber insgesamt ok.

Nice restaurant with decent food. The service could be a little friendlier, but overall it's okay.

Wir haben ein Plastikrest im Essen gefunden und das sofort moniert.Die Antwort war lapidar.Das kann ja mal vorkommen.Es kam zwar eine Entschuldigung und die Bedienung brachte als Entschuldigung einen Kräuterschnaps.Sie hat aber nicht mal gefragt ob wir den überhaupt trinken.

Unavailable by phone! No matter when you try to call there. Food is a 10/10 though

Went on holiday in Karlshagen and visited the restaurant. Nice service and delicious food. We can only recommend it.

Highly recommended and great value for money. However, you should definitely make a reservation. German cuisine...haven't experienced it like this for a long time. TOP

Very good food. Very attentive and friendly service.

Delicious food and friendly staff... highly recommended.

Always a great experience, good value for money, tasty and generous portions, nice service, child-friendly and barrier-free. Thanks to everyone

Great food, very well seasoned, tasty, very large portions. There were six of us eating, we had fish soup, salmon with homemade noodles, beef roulades and steak a four, everything was delicious.

We were on holiday in Karlshagen and chose the restaurant at random. We liked the selection of dishes. We ate schnitzel, goulash and a fish dish. Simply delicious!! I was pretty upset when my plate was empty. If I had gotten something else in, I would have eaten the portion again. So so delicious!!! And definitely affordable. You definitely have to order in advance because it is always full. Great, keep it up!!!

The restaurant is OK, ambience is nothing special. It has more of a 90s hotel breakfast room charm. The staff was friendly and always approachable. The food is simple home cooking. Classic dishes such as schnitzel, liver and Königsberger meatballs can be found on the. Map. I say that these dishes were better at Grandma's and Mom's, but you can't go wrong if you don't expect an exceptional culinary experience. I only saw cake in the display case, it looked very tasty. And the choice was plentiful.

Delicious and great value for money

A really great restaurant, delicious food and fair prices. Super lovely people. I would definitely like to come back there

Very friendly, loves children and animals

The food was very fresh, could have been a little spicier for my taste. Otherwise there was something on the menu for every taste. The staff was also consistently friendly. Thank you for the pleasant evening!

Great value for money and great food

We ate at the Nordlicht restaurant today and can only recommend it. Top service, very tasty food and a pleasant atmosphere.

In short: zander was tasteless, the rest was okay, they have a decent vegan curry, and the service was okay. We ended up here looking for lunch. It wasn't particularly cozy, but it was okay. My partner even found a vegan meal that was also okay. My meal, on the other hand, was disappointing. I've never had such bland zander. Even with salt, it didn't really improve. The fried potatoes were okay. The salad was okay too. The service seemed a bit annoyed, but I can live with that. The prices were acceptable. We wouldn't have paid more.

For what feels like forever: Food - 99% very good, 1% better than good. Ms. Krüger in service - great. It's always great there. Home cooking at moderate prices. We have simply never been disappointed. You have to make a reservation at any time of the year.

The triple hering dish was good but the vegetable curry dish tasted nothing like it should 🫣

Great food! Great service! We're going back the next day!! I can recommend the meatloaf with bacon beans! Super soft and juicy!!

The restaurant is always busy, and reservations are required. The food is plentiful and delicious. We'll be happy to return.

At the end of November I went to the Nordlicht to eat waffles and drink mulled wine. As always, it was very, very 😋 delicious.

Very, very friendly and super tasty...highly recommended.

The food always tastes great there, the price-performance ratio is also great and the service is just as good, it couldn't be better

Very pleasant, friendly restaurant, with a tasty and substantial lunch from an inexpensive daily menu.

Very nice service and the food was very tasty and plentiful. We would be happy to come back.

No star at all 🌟 would be worth it... service is zero... half the shop is empty... we are full. The lady came and she seemed very annoyed, sorry we are not tourists... won't be coming back !!!! 14 o'clock....

We would like to give it 11 out of 10 points. I don't know the last time we had such a great meal :-). We recommend the fish platter, so delicious fish and vegetables, Duckstein was also good, says my husband

We went to the Nordlicht restaurant again for a family dinner on Christmas Day. Very friendly staff, quick service with drinks and tasty food. Many thanks to Thomas and Kerstin, and of course also the staff.

The food was delicious. Definitely come again to have a portion of fish.

Friendly staff. Rich and very tasty food. Very happy again

The food is of consistent quality and the portions are very generous. Price-performance ratio fits. The service is quick and friendly. My favorite local restaurant. ❤️

Very friendly service, excellent value for money. Highly recommended

Wir sind mehrfach mit Freunden und der Familie hier zum Essen. Vielen Dank für soooo viele schöne Momente und ganz leckeres Essen.

We were in the Northern Lights again. The food was again very tasty and extremely plentiful. We had pollock fillet with fried mushrooms, fried potatoes and a side salad as well as cod fillet with fried potatoes and salad. The service is very friendly and quick, even though the restaurant was very busy. Recommended!

Geschmacklich war das essen sehr gut, auch die Portionen sind reichlich. Lediglich die warte Zeit auf die Getränke war zu lange. Trotzdem werden wir wieder kommen.

The service has been great and friendly for many years. Adequate prices for very good food quality. Thank you and please keep it up.

We had dinner there four times and were very impressed by the prices and the tasty food. The staff was super friendly and quick. It's better if you reserve in advance, otherwise you won't get a seat. This restaurant is very popular and visited a lot, because there is a reason for it. The prices are unbeatable. You can also stop there for a coffee and a nice piece of cake.

Insanely nice service with incredibly good food at a fair price. Unfortunately it felt a bit loud in the guest room, but that could also be due to the guests depending on the day. What was surprising was the Asian touch on the menu with the Tom Kha Gai soup. Definitely recommended, gladly again

Always nice to eat there. Everything tastes great... the very best roulades on the island... delicious cake... Very friendly staff and very clean ❣️

Drinks and food very good. Prices are moderate for a tourist region. Can be recommended without reservation.

There's actually nothing to complain about, except that you had to wait a little longer for your drinks. The food is very tasty and plentiful. We felt very comfortable and will definitely come back.

Heavenly atmosphere. Nice employees.

Unfortunately, it is never possible to get a place spontaneously or at short notice, even for just 2 people. So you are forced to reserve early. Which was a shame because it looks very attractive and the food is supposed to be very good. Maybe it will work on your next vacation.

Always excellent! Better make a reservation ;-) ....that says it all. The food was excellent, including the cakes, and the service was TOP. Everything is just right here!!! Thank you and keep it up... :-)

Aspic, fried potatoes remulade, remulade was bad after complaining, no apology was given nor was a discount given - the food was almost completely returned

Very friendly service and good food.
