Restaurant Café Zikke in Bad Doberan

We were there on New Year's Eve 24/25 in the early afternoon. My top recommendation for Bad Doberan. Great service and delicious food. Thank you. All the best for 2025.

Good themed restaurant with good cuisine and great service staff. You can sit well, outside or inside,... cocktails are delicious 😜, wine too 😀 and if you need schnapps and beer, here you go!!! The dishes are all great and there is something for everyone... Whether fish, chicken 😄, everything is there... And there are so many other things on the menu... Price/performance ratio is also right and that's why .... Nothing to complain about....

Very tight at the tables or between the tables. So very loud. Prices a bit too high. Service Very friendly and attentive.

We just love it here and come regularly. It's always delicious and the staff is very friendly. The selection is always great and you should definitely consider the changing daily specials.

We, two couples, stayed here on two consecutive evenings and were very satisfied. From the service to the food, it was a great two evenings. Thanks.

Great food and lovely service. Thanks again for the great experience and see you soon!

Planned as a "warm-up break" with coffee and cake, I was looked after in a very friendly manner and stayed for a tarte flambée and homemade mint lemonade (tip!). The dishes are excellently presented and are at least as tasty as they look. I'm happy to recommend the "zikke" and will come back!

It's getting euphoric: If you want to eat well in Bad Doberan, you can't go past the “Zikke”. On November 10, 2024 I had the fish of the day: sea bass fried in the skin on Chinese cabbage with homemade mashed potatoes. Terrific! In fact, what the friendly operator says is true: we don't stir things here, we cook them. The whole atmosphere is very well maintained and the sanitary area is so clean that you feel at home. Class.

A very nice restaurant with attentive service, including good wine recommendations for the meal. Fine menu, fine ambience and an absolutely harmonious price-performance ratio. I highly recommend it!

We were so pleasantly lured into the restaurant today and we didn't regret it. It was really great and super tasty. We were served very courteously and given advice about what to eat and drink. Our dog was also warmly welcomed. We'll definitely be back.

Food was very tasty. Had tarte flambée and the fish of the day as well as beetroot and goat cheese as a starter. Ambiance very cozy. The service was very attentive. Nothing negative to say.

We've been there several times. The food is absolutely delicious, great quality and taste. The staff is really nice and it's great to sit outside when the weather is nice. The price is also absolutely right. We give it 5 stars...

We had an excellent meal here. The food was very well recommended by the staff and the taste of the homemade potato soup, the fish and the beef stroganoff was a feast for the palate. The atmosphere is very pleasant and, above all, everything is very clean. Others can learn a lesson from the friendliness and attentiveness of the staff, because it proves that service and friendliness towards guests still exists in this day and age.

Die Zikke ist speziell in Ihrer Art aber hinsichtlich des Angebots ein echtes Muss!! Der Ziegenkäse Burger war genau das Richtige in Bezug auf Präsentation und dann Geschmack! Der Service ist auf seine Art speziell und ECHT super! Kann ich

We were there on several days! A beautiful cafe/restaurant. Everything was perfect, from the welcome to the payment. The quality of the food/drinks is very good. The dinner was super delicious. A big compliment goes to all the employees in this house. You are so friendly, attentive and provide fantastic service. Thank you for the lovely time with you. If we're in the area again, we'd love to come back. The four-legged guests are also thought of with water bowls and small dog treats. 👍👍♥️

Molli Station right next to the café, everything fits

We were accommodated at short notice with a larger group. The table was extended. The service was very attentive and took care of us. Food and drinks very tasty. Full recommendation.

Very tasty food, very friendly, attentive waiters, definitely recommended, we have been there several times.

Super friendly staff always happy to come back.

Today we ordered 2 large fish soups with game fish and vegetables, for around €13.60 each. We received 2 bowls with thin tomato soup, delicate vegetable slices, a few fish flakes, mussels and calamari. Unfortunately, there was no response to our advice that there wasn't enough and we ordered game fish. Not recommended.

Wie jedes Mal super! Kommen immer mindestens einmal im Urlaub in die Zikke. Super freundlich und hervorragendes Essen.

Love it and the staff are awesome 😀

We were surprised to find such a great restaurant in a side street. Very nice, courteous owner. Responding to my daughter's wishes regarding vegan food, offering 3 variants, great. The food was great, made with love 👍 the music was to our liking 😍 keep it up, highly recommended. Thank you for the time with you

First of all the positives: friendly staff, clean toilet, nice atmosphere. Were visiting Doberan, a great little town! Table reserved in the Zikke which worked without any problems. My wife chose ox cheeks Unfortunately they were not available for technical reasons. Not a problem in itself, but we could have been informed which dishes were not available. So take another look from the beginning! I ordered the Zikke tarte flambée, which was a real disappointment for me, just dry. The menu says fresh spring onions, which unfortunately were just dried out on top. For almost 18 euros that was nothing. Something fresh is missing there. I don't want to complain either, I've read the positive reviews, but that's how I saw it. We go out to eat very often, but given the prices, that will decrease. We decided not to have dessert and left. A nice restaurant with room for improvement. Ramona and Rainer

Nice for a snack or a coffee and cake. Very friendly service.

Discovered by chance...in the backyard. Therefore quiet and very comfortable. I had the soup of the day...simply delicious. The lemonade was perfect too :-)

Everything is very nice. It tasted great. Always my pleasure.

Attractive ambience, friendly service, varied cuisine.

Mehr oder weniger zufällig kamen wir vorbei und freuen uns, dieses Lokal entdeckt zu haben. Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen. Die Crew war toll! Sehr aufmerksamer Service, die Gerichte waren äusserst schmackhaft. Beim nächsten Besuch in Bad Doberan werden wir wieder hier einkehren.

Just bought a delicious bread. Service was very nice and competent

We were here in this little restaurant in the back yard on a warm summer evening. The service was perfect, nice and courteous.

Great food, great ambience - we were served very nicely by Jana. Unfortunately, tipping via card payment was not possible - we would have liked to have given more for this lovely evening.

The restaurant is conveniently located in the city center and advertises half prices for all burgers and tarte flambées during "happy hour" from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. Cozy atmosphere with lounge music. Clean toilets! Attractive menu. I ate a burger with pulled pork and my wife a tarte flambée with beef and sheep's cheese. And that's where the enjoyment begins: Fine, tender meat, topped with Sheddar cream! As a side dish, some fried potatoes with fine aiolli and a delicate rocket salad with a very tasty dressing. The tarte flambée with hollandaise sauce, sheep cheese and tender pieces of beef. Not run-of-the-mill, but very fine cuisine! Highly recommended... If it weren't for the drinks prices: 0.2l cola €3.90, cappuccino €4.90, beer €5.70, etc. From our point of view, that spoils the enjoyment experience...

We were very satisfied overall. Thank you very much for the very good hospitality.

Beouf Stroganoff with mixed mushrooms - great!

Trevlig inredning, vi satt inomhus pga regn, men även uteplatsen såg trevlig ut! Glad personal, med lagom brådska. Vi valde en rätt ur deras meny samt en rätt med dagens fisk. Bägge ypperliga! Rekommenderas!

Very friendly service. Delicious food (pulled pork burger and sea bass with picture, rump steak, bruschetta and fish pot without). If we didn't live 800km away, it would definitely be a favorite restaurant.

Good. But I haven't seen a burger menu for a very ambitious 25 euros either.

The food was very, very tasty. The employees are very friendly and competent. I ordered pasta with giant shrimps. As a starter, celery pear soup. Tiramisu for dessert. 10 out of 10 points 😊👍👏👏

Fabulous restaurant in the center of Bad Doberan. Nice staff and delicious food. Realy dogfriendly. Molly got a waterbowl and treats. The best restaurant of all on our roundtrip in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

At first glance you can be mistaken as to which diamond is hidden behind the facade. The food was a “fireworks of flavors”. Wine and other drinks were great. And that's not an exaggeration! The service is friendly, courteous and flexible, prices are absolutely reasonable for the quality. The best thing we have discovered so far on the Baltic Sea beach. We look forward to a reunion. Hubert & Eva from Radebeul

Simply delicious!!! It's located in a backyard so the ambience is just great! For me the food is worth the price! Don't let yourself be put off, just order and let me work it out for you 👍👍👍!

Food very good although reasonably priced. Very nice waiters.

Entschieden zu teuer, selbst wärend der Happy Hour kostete ein durchschnittlicher Burger mit ca. 5 Kartoffelschnitten 12€. Das ist eine Frechheit. Das Personal war freundlich.

Chilled location, good service, great food. Unfortunately there was no tip option when paying by card, it was very unpleasant for us not to have any cash with us...we made up for it the next day 🤗

Wir waren mit einer größeren Familiengruppe hier zum Essen. Das Personal ist freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Ambiente in der Stadt, nahe den Gleisen des historischen Zuges mit Dampflock, ist stilvoll und schön mit großer Außenterrasse unter alten Bäumen. Getränke kommen in angemessener Zeit. Wir hatten verschiedene Gerichte vom Caesar Salat über Bruschetta bis zur Fisch-Tagesempfehlung (Zanderfilet) oder Burger. Was bei den Tagesempfehlungen stört, ist dass sie zwar vom Personal vorgestellt und genau beschrieben werden (sie sind auch auf Tafeln zu lesen) aber weder auf den Tafeln, noch bei der mündlichen Vorstellung werden die Preise genannt (?). Uns allen haben die Gerichte wirklich gut geschmeckt und die Qualität ist gut; leider stimmt aber hier das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis nicht. Die Burger kosten ab 22,80 €, der Ceasar Salat 17,80€ … (Karte ist im Internet) Die Portionen sind wirklich klein, man wird nicht satt. Brot gibt es auch keins dazu. Zusammengefasst: Schönes Restaurant, leckeres Essen aber zu teuer. (Mittags gibt es zwischen 3 und 5 Uhr 50% auf bestimmte Gerichte ( Burger und Flammkuchen)… Vielleicht könnte man einen Mittelweg finden?

I always enjoy coming here when I'm in Bad Doberan. Great and friendly team. Very good service and delicious food.

Delicious cake, always a pleasure

Super nice and quiet location. The staff was extremely friendly and humorous. Until the food it would have been 4 stars. BUT the rump steak was so perfect and was simply convincing. Absolute favorite in the entire Rostock area.

Very well made, high quality food with very attentive and friendly service!!

Really good food. I love their flammkuchen pizza. Gad one with beef on it. Really nice, tender and moist. The staff is full of energy and in a good mood. I love this place.

As always, our visit today was very nice. Very tasty food, beautifully presented and a staff to fall in love with. I just love it there.

So we are absolutely thrilled! The food was tasty and of high quality. Price performance absolutely fine! Very dog ​​friendly! Our dog was given water and even treats immediately upon arrival. The ambience is beautiful, tasteful, cozy and inviting. Service super friendly, accommodating and on the ball! Here you know how it works. No mass processing and unfriendly faces! Any time ! Thank you!!

Not exactly cheap but very good food and very friendly and courteous staff, definitely worth recommending

The restaurant is a bit hidden, but has a quiet outdoor area. The food is very good, fresh and lovingly prepared. The journey there is worth it...

A very impressive restaurant. The service doesn't stop at the guest, but continued very lovingly with our dogs; they each received their own clean bowl with fresh water and a few dog biscuits on a plate. Very very friendly and nice 👍. We'd love to come back, the farm and the whole ambience are great, very tasty food at normal prices. I had a small starter of salad and truffle pasta with wild mushrooms and my husband had a pulled pork burger and it was very, very tasty. Even the toilets are pleasantly clean and comfortably furnished. You have a great place there! Thank you for the warm welcome.

Quiet, cozy restaurant, we only had a drink, but the food looked very good

We have been to the ZIKKE several times during our holidays (2010-2015). It's always an experience to try up and down the menu. The staff is always attentive, friendly and quick. We will definitely come back! Went to the Zikke again in April '17, I can only say very high praise. Came back again in July '17, still just as good! As always a pleasure! Small update; Went to the Zikke again in May 2020, just like the previous visits, it was a pleasure. I can only hope that we can come often, many thanks especially to Birgit. And we were guests again in August 2020, it's always an experience to look through the menu...interesting dishes are offered every time. Keep it up, we'll be back! Many thanks to Birgit for the campaign with the rice pudding....press. So, summer 2021, I've been to the Zikke several times again...just great, just like it has been all these years! The boss and Birgit are absolutely brilliant. I can't say anything about the other employees at the moment. If you read one or two negative reviews, I can't understand it. It is possible that one or two of our contemporaries got off on the wrong foot. Boys & girls keep it up, we'll be back. February 22, we visited the ZIKKE again, like before, it's always nice with you. I'm excited to see what happens when the kitchen renovation is finished. August 2022, on vacation again and of course several times in the Zikke....As expected, there was always something interesting on the menu/daily specials and everything was really great. Many thanks to Mikki and Mr. Bolz for the loving care. Also a big compliment to the kitchen, which prepares everything so beautifully. We will miss you for now... Update April '24, been to the Zikke again...like so many times, a wonderful evening with you, thank you very much, we'll be back.

Friendly bistro/restaurant with a cozy courtyard terrace, quiet yet centrally located. Creative cuisine, also changing daily specials. Very friendly service.

Very nice restaurant/cafe. We ate really well. Were served friendly. Gladly again

Fantastic food. Super tasty, a special treat for the palate. My guests were full of praise. I absolutely loved the beef stroganof. Ordered a table for other guests next Monday. Then I'll eat Thai curry with chicken breast.

Sehr netter Service und ganz außergewöhnlich freundliche Mitarbeiter. Wir waren mit einer größeren Familiengruppe vor Ort, das Essen kam gleichzeitig, war geschmacklich gut und alle Sonderwünsche wurden berücksichtigt. Der Humor der Mitarbeiter war wirklich lustig und unser Kinder waren voll zufrieden.

We were here for the first time and spontaneously too. The reception was very pleasant and the atmosphere outside was very inviting and charming. The service staff was really nice and friendly. Choosing the food was a little more difficult because there are no everyday dishes here, which is nice. However, the selection of children's meals, here in number two, is very poor. So our daughter decided on a burger which was prepared for her according to the children's wishes. So in this case just the bread, ketchup and chicken patty plus potato wedges. The other two dishes were also very tasty and ok, although they were a bit more expensive. And that's exactly the issue, when the bill came, we were very shocked because for this "children's hamburger" without any real ingredients, we were asked for the price of a burger menu from the menu, for an impressive 22.90 €, left us speechless. We would have liked to have adjusted the price to the actual value of the goods, especially since in this case it was a children's meal. All in all, it is a nice, charmingly located restaurant with nice staff including dishes that are not everyday, but perhaps a little too expensive in one place or another.

I have rarely visited such a great café/restaurant. Service top class, food and wine great. Thanks for the nice time. 100% tiger recommendation

A restaurant that we visited on a recommendation - and we were not disappointed. Great service and delicious little things to go with your coffee. We say thank you and will now recommend the restaurant ourselves.

I actually wanted to eat something in Rostock before I went home, but because I didn't have enough time, I had a look at what was nice in Bad Doberan. The very good reviews made me curious and looking at the menu was also very promising, so why not try it out?! The location in a quiet courtyard with lots of shade (but there are also sunny spots) appealed to me immediately. The menu offers something for everyone, but at the same time it is not overloaded. A great selection of drinks with self-created drinks tops it off! The waitresses were very friendly, on the ball and always available at the right time. Food and drinks also came very quickly. Prices aren't cheap, but I haven't regretted my choice and I'm starting my journey home happy and full. :-) By the way, the aioli dip for the potatoes on the chicken burger tastes absolutely fantastic, it could also be used as a sauce on the burger! Just an idea... ;-)

Good location, very nice atmosphere, good selection of food, delicious food, courteous staff

Delicious tarte flambée in a beautiful backyard atmosphere!

Great and cozy restaurant, the food tasted excellent and the service was attentive and very friendly.

Mega cozy ambience and very nice atmosphere. Service was very friendly and nice. We will be back definitely.

Very tasty food, very nice service, would be happy to come again

Delicious fish soup, everything was great 🥂👍

The food was very tasty and freshly prepared. We sat in the middle of the restaurant. Therefore, a point is deducted from the ambience point of view. Furthermore, in my opinion it is far too loud behind the counter. The counter doors are slammed shut. I found that very disturbing. If you sat outside it certainly wouldn't be like that. But the food was very good

Very nice restaurant, recommended, nice service.

Very tasty food 😋, super friendly staff 🫶🏻 we would love to come back. Just a little tip, the work at the counter was a bit noisy, so be very careful and check the chairs so that they don't wobble 😉 otherwise everything was perfect 😁

Thank you for the great evening with you. Gives me 6 stars... Courteous staff. Food was great. Always my pleasure. Thank you very much.

Super friendly service, very attentive and polite.

Very nice little restaurant. Totally nice staff, despite being fully booked, the waiter called us back and organized a table for us. The food was FABULOUS

Super competent, friendly and approachable staff. The food is very high quality and delicious. Price performance absolutely appropriate. The atmosphere invites you to have a nice and relaxing stay.

Really great restaurant, service great and quality of the food also recommended.

I've eaten here a few times now and would love to come back. Great service, very attentive and quick. Delicious dishes, from starters to dessert and a cute atmosphere to feel good, both inside and outside.

Very nice little restaurant with super tasty food. Gladly again

Upscale gastronomy in an appealing, cozy atmosphere... We recommend... Delicious sophisticated cuisine...

Wir sind spontan dort gestrandet und haben es nicht bereut. Tolles Essen,klasse Ambiente und sehr sehr nette Bedienung .Wir kommen sehr sehr gerne wieder.

Did I mention that the service deserves 5 stars + :-). Thank you Jana for the lovely and relaxed evening. Our food was freshly prepared and the wines were excellently chosen to match the menu. Everything is alright.

This restaurant has a very rich and interesting wine list. The staff is trained in wine tasting and the presentation is also special. 👍

Great birthday party in this location 14 days ago, perfect service, absolutely delicious food and the drinks went well with everything. Highly recommended - THANKS to everyone

For us...... One of the restaurants where we say we finally found one again..... Very nice and competent service, the wine recommendation was a great fit!! The menu offers a lot of variety and the daily specials testify to the ingenuity of the kitchen team, freshly prepared and without finished products (I would firmly say)! All in all, one has to say that the ambience - food - drinks - service result in a coherent concept. We wish the whole team all the best and keep it up 👍🏻 👍🏻 👍🏻 Update March '24 Thank you very much for the wonderful hours with you and the very tasty food, even after 4 years of abstinence 😉 You are once again our number 1 in Bad Doberan. Thanks for the great service and greetings to our colleagues in the kitchen!

Great restaurant, very friendly staff, food was wonderful. Would recommend it to all visitors to Bad Doberan and also to all patients who are in the rehabilitation clinic. Greetings from Berlin and keep it up

Very tasty food, very friendly service and a pleasant atmosphere. What more do you want!

We were in Bad Doberan for 2 days. We discovered the restaurant right next to the Doberaner Hof. Stopped in on the first evening out of curiosity. Were served very well and friendly without a reservation. The food is very good. We made reservations again for the next evening. And we were well served again. Thank you for two lovely evenings

Nice ambience, nice staff, delicious food! If you want to go out for a fancy meal, this is my first choice. The staff is friendly and funny, the food is also very delicious (for example, I had perch in aluminum foil as the fish of the day) and the atmosphere is also quiet and relaxing. I'd love to come back there.

The staff was very friendly. But the food was too expensive for the not particularly large portions. The risotto had too much bite.

Bad Doberan im Februar an einem Sonntag. Fast alle Restaurants sind zu, dieses hatte offen. Anspruch und Realität klaffen weit auseinander. Es wurde uns angeraten, die Garderobe am Eingang abzulegen. Am Nebentisch spielte derweil eine Dame am Handy lautstark ihre YouTube Videos ab und ein Fernseher lief wie in einer Spielhalle. Das Essen war ok . Fisch ca 25 Euro, Salat mit Hühnchenbrust extra auch 25 Euro . Mit Getränken kamen wir auf fast 80 Euro. Wenn wir Hunger gehabt hätten , wären wir nicht satt geworden. Ich hab dem Kellner auf Nachfrage gesagt , das die Portionen für den Preis zu klein sind. Netterweise räumte er sofort ein , das man das ansprechen soll. Sein Vorschlag : Man könnte auch noch eine Vorspeise bestellen. Dann bot er aber auch an, das die Portionen größer zubereitet werden können , wenn man diese als zu klein erachtet. Dafür gibt es die 2 Punkte .

Dinner: 5 different dishes, all of them moderately large, but NOT inexpensive, the taste was okay, but nothing more, e.g. filled flatbread very dry or the dish that was declared as a salmon dish had very sparsely a few small salmon rolls on the edge. Otherwise everything is somehow gloomy/dark, nostalgic and the room is not comfortably warm. The service was attentive, almost too friendly, ordering without writing it down (but in the end it doesn't matter), but asking if everything is okay after 2 minutes is a bit too much service. Sorry, I actually meant “tarte flambée”, not “flatbread”. It was still dry, similar to crispy bread.

Sehr lecker und schönes Ambiente.

Alles gut, aber durch erhöhte MwSt . sehr preisintensiv

Tolle Location, sehr freundlich und das Essen ist frisch und sehr schmackhaft

Ein kleines aber feines Restaurant, das Essen war super lecker (die Waldpilzsuppe als Tagesempfehlung war einsame spitze), die Bedienung sehr freundlich und aufmerksam.

Ein tolles Lokal, gutes Essen, sehr nette Kellner. Wir waren 13 Personen, hatten in der oberen Etage einen Raum für uns. Wir wurden sehr nett und zuvorkommend bedient, es blieb kein Wunsch offen. Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Abend dort alle Gäste waren begeistert vom Ambiente, dem Essen und den netten Kellnern. Ich kann das Restaurant nur weiter empfehlen.
