Restaurant Duhner Strandräuber in Cuxhaven

We were there for the first time yesterday. We entered the restaurant and received no response to our “hello” from either the staff present or the two chefs behind the counter. Ok, maybe that's North German humor, we thought. A young man brought us to the table and we only got short, unfriendly answers to our questions. The food came quickly and was from ok (my husband's meal) to inedible (my meal of salmon on pan-fried vegetables only tasted like pepper and the salmon was totally dry). When I paid, for whatever reason, I gave a tip of €6. I'm still waiting for the “thank you”, it was accepted without comment. Our “bye” was again not returned by anyone. I really don't expect anything out of the ordinary, but all in all this was unbeatable in terms of unfriendliness! We go to Duhnen at least once a year, but we definitely won't go there again! I can't understand the many good reviews. Too bad.

very friendly, really tasty food, good prices, great location... Thank you very much!

Just visiting to warm up and drink. Service quick, friendly and quick. Invites you to visit again. Was able to give us tips for the vacation.

Today we went to Strandräuber, both had kale, it was very good. The service was also very attentive and was really happy about the tip. We'll be going back to the Strandräuber restaurant on our next vacation.

Always delicious food. A great team and nice employees

Very nice restaurant, cozy and stylishly furnished. No problem getting a table without a reservation. The food was very tasty and served quickly.

We ate here twice during our holiday on the North Sea. The dishes are very tasty and beautifully presented, kudos to the chefs. The service can still be improved, not very attentive and quite unemotional. The atmosphere is very cozy.

We are in Duhnen every year and eat here. Always a pleasure... I like to sit on the ground floor near the kitchen and watch all the delicacies leave the kitchen.

First of all: Hunger drove it in and greed left it in! We've been here for 8 days now, eating somewhere different every evening. But this was by far the worst! The food was at the table a good 10 minutes after ordering, so it shouldn't have been left at the pass for long. But everything that was fried fish on the plates was soggy! Nothing crispy, not even the panfish, which is breaded! Everything is soaked in fat! Salt and pepper are on the table, fortunately, because the fish was completely unseasoned! Fried potatoes thrive on frying and then become crispy. Not here! Just warmed up by bathing in fat. And the fat is then on the plate! What we had on our plates contradicted the description on the website! 3 cooks in the open kitchen should bring more! The next fiasco came when paying! EC or debit card! I have a debit card! However, only the debit card from the Sparkasse is accepted! Cash payment was at least problem-free! I believe the occasional bad reviews here rather than the many good ones! The waitress's surprise when we brought up the fat problem... Well, never again!

Delicious food, good value for money. Nothing negative to report. We already reserved the next table when we left.

Very tasty restaurant, I can recommend "Cuxhavener Fischplatte", unfortunately our waitress was a bit unfriendly/stroppy, probably had a bad day. Otherwise we were very satisfied...

What we ordered came quickly and our fish was tasty, but very fatty! Employees are nice and do their work well and quickly. For me it was too crowded and therefore too loud, but that also means for me that the restaurant is popular.

Very good food... nice atmosphere. I can only recommend :)

Whether it was fish dishes, schnitzel or rum steak, everything was great.

Despite the taciturn service, we managed to order a beer. The kitchen, on the other hand, works quickly and flawlessly. The quality is recommended.

Unfriendly staff. They are completely inflexible and disrespectful towards people.

There were three of us with our dog in this really nice restaurant. Despite it being really busy there, the staff was super friendly. The food was great We really liked it.

Very tasty food. Been coming to eat there for years. Nice restaurant.

Wir entschlossen uns dort Essen zu gehen, da das Restaurant am Vorabend sehr gut besucht war. Wir bekamen ohne Reservierung einen Tisch. Der Kellner der uns bediente legte die Karten auf den Tisch verschwand wortlos wieder. Die Bestellung wurde ebenfalls wortkarg erledigt. Das Essen wurde bereits nach kurzer Zeit gebracht und lieblos auf den Tisch gestellt. Leider war das Essen nichts Besonderes und auch sehr einfallslos angerichtet. Der Flammkuchen kalt und die Pilze auf dem Schnitzel „Jäger Art“ musste man suchen. Auch an den Nachbartischen war man über die Art und Weise der Bedienung sehr verwundert. Beim Bezahlen kein: „hat es geschmeckt, danke oder einen schönen Abend“. Der junge Mann hatte entweder einen schlechten Tag oder komplett den Beruf verfehlt. Schade eigentlich. Wir waren bzw. sind enttäuscht vom Strandräuber.

Super delicious food, great cuisine, very good service and in the heart of Duhen. Here you can enjoy the North Sea. I always enjoy coming here and I always receive polite and competent service. One of my favorite places in Cuxhaven!

Very pleasant atmosphere. Staff very friendly and helpful. Prices are very reasonable.

The food came quickly, was very tasty, and the service was nice and friendly.

The food was plentiful, but unfortunately way too greasy and the seasoning could have been bolder. The potatoes definitely didn't see a grain of salt. It's a shame. The service was very monosyllabic!

The food is solid and fairly priced for the resort. The meat and fish dishes are recommended, although I personally didn't like the burger that much. The service staff is courteous and the surroundings are beautiful when the weather is good, although the interior ambience is also harmonious. I think the dessert is very tasty and beautifully presented.

Waren am 17.09.24 zum Abendessen im Duhner Strandräuber. Wir hatten den Duhner Pannfisch und den Cuxhavener Fischteller und waren mit beiden Gerichten sehr zufrieden, auch der Preis von € 19,90 je Gericht war sehr akzeptabel, über den Preis von € 5,30 je 0,2 Ltr Roséwein kann man nicht meckern, kommen gerne wieder

Best local fish restaurant. Service (Marco I think?) bomb. Our grandchild was well looked after. I would like to give it 6 stars. We'll be back!!!

Very good food and drink at slightly higher prices. But compared to other restaurants, it's worth every euro here. Highly recommended.

Very tasty dishes, attentive and friendly service. The fish makes a very fresh impression. The price isn't exactly cheap but it's worth it.

Food was great, I had a delicious currywurst and my wife had plaice, Unfortunately, the exhaust air on the lower floor isn't that good and our clothes smelled like the kitchen afterwards.

Good food.🙂 That's why we are repeat offenders. The chef doesn't know any secrets, nor does he have to - but the kitchen is open to the dining room in case anyone has any doubts.😉

Were there two evenings in a row. We were so impressed by the first evening that no other restaurant was an option for the second evening. Excellent food (burger & salad). In addition, the service was very friendly, courteous and quick. Despite staff shortages on the second evening, the quality of the service remained great! At this point, a big thank you again to Marco and the boss for the recommendation and the history of the single malt whiskey 😉 See you in a few months 😀

We spent our 56th wedding anniversary there with a great dinner. It lived up to the occasion. The price was real. The food was excellent. We'll be back when our health permits. Thank you very much. SUPER.

Very friendly and very good food. It can't be better

a nice restaurant. We sat inside. cozy and fine

Great ambience, great food, great. Happy to repeat

Nice restaurant. Delicious food. Reasonable prices. Service friendly and quick.

The complaint about our food was acknowledged, but there was no concrete solution or apology. In addition, payment by credit card was not possible - a tip would have saved us a lot of stress. When we wanted to pay, we had to wait another 20 minutes after being reminded several times and finally blocked the counter. Even there it took another 5 minutes until the payment was finally processed and there was no apology. Unfortunately we cannot recommend this restaurant. However, the generous portions of fish were positive. However, the fried potatoes we ordered were disappointing as they mostly tasted like boiled potatoes. Because of this experience we will not be guests at this restaurant again.

We looked for a restaurant for a long time today. Last but not least, I actually gave up (pizza to take away is currently closing), then saw the restaurant on the other side of the street and the offer: plaice fillet with fried potatoes for €16.90. We didn't regret it, it was very tasty. We can recommend the restaurant.

Food good, rich. Be sure to have cash ready if you don't have an EC card. Debit and credit cards are not accepted

Great restaurant......Staff friendly and attentive, continuous cuisine (which is currently rare) and incredibly delicious food 😉.... We'll be happy to come back

Very lovingly furnished and nicely decorated, clean and well maintained. It is also very spacious, you can sit upstairs, downstairs or in the winter garden. A great well-coordinated team, very friendly and nice. Despite the stress, the store is running great. The food tasted very good and the price was right too. We really enjoyed it and enjoyed it, thank you very much...

Fish was okay, schnitzel was not seasoned and had more breading than meat, hunter's sauce no more than a tablespoon. The worst thing was the fries. They were so hard that they flew onto the neighbor's table. When I complained, a listless waiter just grinned. The bill as being paid separately by card was brought to the table as one cash bill. The so-called waiter couldn't calculate the bill so we had to do it ourselves. Despite the well-known staff shortage, you shouldn't subject your customers to such employees. All in all, a thoroughly wasted evening.

The atmosphere was good, the staff was very nice. The food mediocre.

Great restaurant. Top dishes. Top staff. Simply put: super satisfied. Gladly again at any time.

A very nice, cozy restaurant, simply rustic. The food is delicious and the entire staff is very attentive and friendly. 😍🤗 Also compliments to the boss, he remembers his guests and addresses them by name when making a reservation. 👌 We felt very comfortable. 🤗

Were a bit disappointed 😞 with our pizza, too thin and not much on it.

Wir können das Restaurant nur empfehlen - sehr gutes Essen zu vernünftigen Preisen mit ausgezeichnetem Service! Backfisch mit Pommes und Duhner Fischteller - ausgezeichneter Fisch, perfekt zubereitet. Der Sauvignon blanc passte perfekt dazu.

Seat allocation and service up until the order was placed were initially problem-free. However, the service was no longer available to answer questions. The crab soup I ordered was inedible, and for the first time in my life I had to send food back. The statement from the service was very succinct, we have that often.Hello? At the end we received an incorrect bill from the next table. But the fish plate was ok.

The food was really good. Staff friendly and attentive. Would love to come back

Very friendly and fast team. The food there is very tasty. The selection is not very large and that makes it a little easier to choose. There is something for everyone. Always my pleasure. It's worth a visit

There's nothing to add to the good reviews :-) Fantastic food and very good value for money

Great fish, open to switching side dishes. Great service!

The food was ok, but not outstanding! The service was tried hard, but you could tell it was probably a long day.

friendly service, great food, had bacon fried potatoes with herring and salmon burger and crab soup

We were there at peak time without a reservation - which wasn't a problem as it is quite large and spread over 2 floors. The food was very good and plentiful, the service was super nice and attentive. The atmosphere is modern. When all the seats are occupied it is quite noisy as everything is open. Of course, this cannot be avoided and is not meant to be a criticism! We'll definitely come back.

Very tasty food and friendly service. Prices ok. We are satisfied and can only recommend it

Like it has been for 4 years, every year super delicious.

Cuxhaven fish plate, fine fish plate, fried potatoes, everything was very tasty, nice boss, nice service, it was full, but everything went very quickly. Special requests such as a scoop of vanilla ice cream in the espresso were fulfilled. Price-performance ratio is good. Gladly again!

Nice attentive and courteous service and delicious food, the fish and the schnitzel were freshly prepared.

top service, delicious food and reasonable prices...

Good cuisine at reasonable prices, very good service

Good value for money, delicious food. self-service,

The rump steak was a poem. Beautifully tender, served with delicious grilled vegetables and fried potatoes. My husband had the schnitzel Holsteiner style. He was also very enthusiastic.

Food was delicious. However, it would have been nice if the salad had a dressing with the baked potato. The smoked salmon with it was very tasty. The service came across as very stressed and could have been a bit friendlier.

Everything was very neat and clean, the food was very good, the service was very friendly

Great bright restaurant with outside seating. Very nice service, child-friendly and very, very tasty food, large portions at a good price. We went there a second time while on vacation

We were there about 1.5 hours before the store closed and the restaurant was still full. Nevertheless, we managed to get a table with 7 people even without a reservation. We really enjoyed everything that was ordered - well seasoned and filling portion sizes. There were also a few vegetarian/vegan dishes to choose from, which was satisfactory considering that apart from fries or salad, almost only fish and meat dishes are sold in the area. The service was relatively okay. What was great was that we received our orders very quickly. As I said, it was well filled, so it was a bit lively/loud - the live music also contributed to that. Whether you rate it positively or negatively is a matter of taste, I would say. Conclusion: You can definitely visit - especially if you are looking for vegetarian food in the area.

It was easy to order takeaway food on site. The service was friendly. The food was served in typical Styrofoam transport boxes. This is probably why the fried potatoes, the fish and also the tarte flambée were very soggy and no longer crispy when eaten after about 10 minutes. Unfortunately, the fish was stacked, so the breading stuck to each other and was also floating in the fat in the transport box. The tarte flambée was cut but unfortunately also stacked in a small transport box, so unfortunately it was rather soggy when eaten. The vegetarian burger was tasty, the quality was still good even after it was taken away, the fries were limp. In terms of price, it's in the middle segment for Cuxhaven Duhnen. In terms of quality, unfortunately not recommended for take-away, perhaps the quality is better locally.

Hello, delicious food and friendly staff 👍 always happy

Had lunch here...very tasty 😋 Service very accommodating...ambience very appealing

Fresh fish on the table. Nice service, nice atmosphere. The upper floor is closed at lunchtime. We really liked and enjoyed it. We were here for lunch.

It was our first time in this restaurant and it took quite a while until we were served, even though there were no tables inside and only 2 outside with our 3 occupied When we got our food we were very disappointed, a Holstein style schnitzel and a plate of plaice. Visually the dishes were appealing But now to the taste/quality, the breading of the schnitzel was easily 2/3 of the schnitzel (see photo) the schnitzel meat was 2 to 3 mm, if at all, it was unbelievable to call this a schnitzel, when the waiter asked if everything was ok, we showed her the schnitzel, her answer to that was: it was flattened properly "that was cheeky, because the fact that it was flattened is understandable, but it's not like you can't taste the meat at all! Everything else on the side dishes was swimming in the fat, but the taste was ok Unfortunately, we cannot recommend it at all

Friendly staff ❣️ very tasty food 👍👍👍👍👍 Price performance is right 😃😃😃

Service nice Food was good Come again

Nice shop and nice staff, but unfortunately not good food The food is boring and way too greasy. Fried potatoes extremely greasy and close to burnt! The fish was neither seasoned nor salted and not even a piece of lemon with the fish on the plate! The remoulade was way too sour and maybe home-made because of homemade! Pepsi-Cola had no or little carbonation and was not cold! Once but definitely not twice!

We both had currywurst (no fish). There was nothing to complain about. Food was delicious. Prices reasonable. Have been there many times. Is recommended!

The schnitzel was okay, the hunter's sauce was out of the bag and the fried potatoes were a mess. The service was very friendly. We won't be coming back!

I think the schnitzel hunter style is very good. Especially the mushroom sauce with it 🤤. I'm not a big fish eater but the people I was there with said the fish was good too. We've had a few different waiters and they were all very nice and offered us water for our dog.

Super delicious food, friendly service

The staff was friendly, but the food was terrible. Everything was heavily soaked in fat. The fish wasn't really edible. Unfortunately very bad food. But the staff was really very friendly!

Very tasty plaice Finkenwerder style. Baked potatoes with chicken breast strips are also great. Staff on the ball and super friendly. Reasonable prices. Gladly again.

Very tasty food, super nice and attentive service. I can only recommend.

Cozy, good food, friendly staff

Very friendly staff and we enjoyed the food. Both dogs were also welcome and were immediately offered water! Class!

Price/performance is right. Beautiful maritime atmosphere over two floors! Downstairs with open kitchen area! We always like to come back!

We were there before Easter and wanted to eat, it was very full and since there were 6 of us we were told that they had no more space without a reservation. We could sit outside, which we did, then the waitress came and complained that she had to go out in the cold because of us and serve us. We placed our order and waited for it, what we noticed was that there were a lot of dogs in there The food was so good, my salad was wilted and didn't look so good anymore. It's a shame we won't be eating there again

Toilet on the upper floor, not so practical

Great view of the dunes, beach and North Sea!

When I spontaneously decided to go out for dinner, I still managed to get a seat at rush hour without a reservation. Friendly welcome, very friendly staff and fast service. There was just a very slight smell of french fries in the air - which was caused by the open kitchen. You could watch the food being prepared, which I really like. I will gladly come again. My recommendation: The onion soup as a starter was phenomenal.

Very tasty food and even spontaneously got a table for 5 people. However, the portions could be larger.

In my opinion the coolest restaurant in Duhnen

The food was tasty, but "very small" in terms of quantity (very small plaice fillets). Service impersonal, reception when entering the restaurant unfriendly. Luckily there are more pleasant restaurants in Cuxhaven.

There were three of us here and we were seated quickly and friendly. The staff is very nice and the food came quite quickly! But only the bruschetta nordic ones were really tasty. Art. The. Fish soup was neither clear nor tasty and was only seasoned with lemon and the matjes was totally salty, dry and full of bones. There was no sauce or anything and the lettuce was wilted and sandy. Salmon with grilled vegetables was better, but the vegetables were Brandenburg style, so they were grilled pretty dark! The Cuxhaven fish plate was probably quite okay, although... Fish was hardly seasoned, but there was salt and pepper on the table!!!

It couldn't be better! Here the chef loves his job! Exemplary!!! Price/performance great!

Unfortunately I can only give 2 stars! Coca-Cola no or little carbonation. Jägerschnitzel very very thin. In my opinion it's not worth the money!

Centrally located right next to the dike, something for everyone and yet not a complete “tourist trap”. Food was tasty and reasonably priced.

Food very good. Very nice staff. Recommended.

Good service. Kitchen was on point and it was delicious.

Ate it once 8 years ago and it was always excellent

Nice restaurant with delicious fish dishes. I can't rate the burgers or schnitzels because we only had fish. The service was super friendly and quick. It was worth it.
