Restaurant Käthe in Rostock

I spent an evening with friends at Café Käthe the other day. My last visit was years ago (and without any negative experiences). We were completely pleasantly surprised and overwhelmed by the quality of the food. It was not only very good, but also beautifully presented. The number of non-alcoholic aperitif options is particularly noteworthy. I have the highest praise for that! The service was courteous, attentive, and thoughtful. I'll keep Café Käthe on my radar and will be back!

Cafe Käthe is simply amazing, with fantastic service and incredibly delicious food, beautifully presented, and great value for money. Thanks for the lovely evening.

After several visits, I can only agree with all the reviews. The food – especially the value for money – is absolutely top-notch. Fresh, seasonal produce is perfectly interpreted. The service is more than polite, attentive, and on the ball, also top-notch! The ambiance is harmonious, cozy, and understated. All in all, a definite recommendation!

Käthe is a lovingly crafted, gourmet restaurant near Dobi. The selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes leaves nothing to be desired. However, reservations are recommended to ensure you experience this explosion of flavors. The people here are extremely friendly and fit perfectly into this setting.

We ate here with a larger group. Unfortunately, none of us understood the extremely positive reviews. The food is rather mediocre. Of the pumpkin seed-battered schnitzels, only one was coated in pumpkin seeds, and the mushroom cream sauce had hardly any mushrooms and had a pudding-like consistency. The braised cheeks had a good texture, and the bowls and appetizers were perfectly fine. Overall, the food was rather sweet in taste. The ambiance also left something to be desired; at 9:15 PM, the waiters at the table next to us started polishing cutlery, while on the other side, a buffet for the next day was already being set up. The waiter who served us was very friendly and unobtrusive, however. They played pop music a bit too loudly throughout, which was rather distracting during the meal. Given the abundance of good reviews, we expected much more.

Food delicious, all around everything was great - gladly again

A great location for fresh, flavorful, high-quality dishes—worth the wait. The service was attentive, caring, and perfect throughout. We'd love to come back soon. Stay the way you are. 👍🏻

Everything was harmonious and pleasant.

This restaurant is highly recommended. Very finely prepared dishes that you won't find anywhere else. Truly something special. The drinks menu is also very varied; I especially liked the non-alcoholic options.

Very nice restaurant, great small menu, sometimes with "unusual" dishes. Reservations recommended.

We were very impressed by the friendly service and the super creative and delicious food.

The food was fantastic, and the wine was also delicious. The service was great. Highly recommended. Kathe, the house cat, was also very friendly. Lia and Hans from Rotterdam

We wanted to treat ourselves, and we weren't disappointed. All the food and drinks were lovingly prepared and tasted excellent. We received extremely friendly and courteous service. The value for money is reasonable. We'll definitely be back.

The food was incredibly delicious!!! The service was very friendly! The table in the back room was unfortunately a bit drafty. All in all, a very good and highly recommended restaurant!! We'll be happy to come back on our next visit! Thank you for your hard work!!!😋

Top service, super delicious food!

One of the most beautiful places in Rostock with fantastic dishes on a seasonally changing menu. Always beautiful. Always exciting. And great service.

Found another gem. Great food, friendly and helpful staff. Reasonable prices.

The food was delicious and the staff friendly and attentive. Plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. Something for everyone. Highly recommended!

We visited this place with the whole family for the second time and are absolutely thrilled! From the moment we arrived, we immediately felt welcome – the team was incredibly friendly, attentive, and even had a sympathetic ear for our son. The food was fantastic: fresh, lovingly prepared, and simply delicious. You can immediately tell that great importance is placed on quality and regional ingredients. There was truly something for everyone here, and we felt completely at home. We would particularly like to highlight the excellent service – warm, attentive, and always with a smile. It was the perfect blend of professionalism and family-like hospitality. For us, one thing is certain: Käthe is a true highlight in Rostock, which we would recommend at any time. We would love to come back!

I highly recommend this place for brunch.

Super delicious food in a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere.

Super cozy restaurant with delicious, lovingly prepared food and very friendly staff.

Great restaurant with excellent service and delicious food! We'll be back!

The overall experience was truly exceptional. Great food selection, including vegetarian and vegan options. Excellent service and a lovely atmosphere. We'll definitely be back. :)

The food was creatively and delicately presented and a real feast for the eyes. The service and ambiance (with the exception of the restrooms, which were somewhat plain but smelled of lavender) were like being in a five-star restaurant, making for a wonderful evening for me and my family. At the same time, the ambiance was relaxed. The service was simply personable and humorous; I've rarely experienced such friendly service in a restaurant. There was something for everyone on the menu, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal at Käthe.

It was okay, except for the end... Last round was announced 1.5 hours before closing time. They charged a hefty tip. 15 minutes later, you were supposed to finish your drink and leave, even though the official closing time was only 50 minutes away. The way it was handled didn't contribute to a pleasant atmosphere at all. I come from a restaurant background myself – that's not how you treat customers!

A very nice café where you can relax. The breakfast buffet was simply fantastic, as was the service. Thank you for a great start to the day.

We couldn't have spent a more pleasant summer evening last Saturday than at Restaurant Käthe. From "A for aperitif" to "Z for attentive service," everything was perfect. We were particularly impressed by the variety of appetizers and the diverse selection of drinks. We're already looking forward to returning soon and discovering more culinary creations.

Even though we arrived at the restaurant five minutes before closing time, we were still greeted and served very warmly. There was a great selection of food, and the dishes we ordered were super, super delicious. A great selection of music played in the background, and overall, we had a very pleasant evening here :) The servers were very friendly and accommodating. Furthermore, the women's restrooms were very well-equipped and very clean. (There's also a changing table if you're staying there with a baby.) We weren't from Rostock, but when we're back in town, we'll definitely be back here :)

It was fantastic here. The breakfast selection was plentiful and lovingly prepared. We felt very comfortable and enjoyed the friendly and attentive service.

Good food and excellent service. Stands out from the crowd in Rostock. Highly recommended.👍

Not standard! Very good food. Friendly service. Simply TOP-NOTCH!!!

I had the asparagus with wild garlic potatoes and "real" hollandaise sauce here yesterday. A dream, super delicious, and very friendly and attentive service. Thank you for the lovely afternoon.

We came here for dinner and were absolutely thrilled. Highly recommended. The dishes were creative and delicious, not your average, run-of-the-mill fare. The service was super friendly without being overly pretentious. I get the impression that everyone here is doing their job right. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Curious and full of anticipation, we entered the restaurant at exactly 1:59 p.m. We were asked to leave because it opened at 2 p.m. We waited another five minutes outside the restaurant. Upon re-entering the restaurant and asking if we could go in, we were told that "the door was open, after all." Too bad, it wasn't the right place for us, because eating isn't just about the eye, but also about politeness.

We came here for breakfast and I highly recommend it.

The breakfast buffet was excellent; there was nothing missing. The staff was very friendly and accommodating.

The waiter quickly seemed overwhelmed...

Being invited there spontaneously was great

We had breakfast at "Käthe" with the whole family today and were more than thrilled. We received a warm welcome, and since it was our first time there, they explained the simple process to us. From sweet to savory, from hot to cold dishes, everything was there. We'd like to thank you for the wonderful start to the day, which was made even better by the great atmosphere and attentive staff. :)

Friendly welcome; prompt service; a reasonable wait time for the ordered food. My herring was delicious.

The food is super tasty and fresh!

Today we had the pleasure of being able to reserve a table for two people in the Käthe restaurant. It was a completely successful evening. The waiter was absolutely attentive and courteous. All three courses of our menu were excellent. The drinks menu is also very extensive and includes many non-alcoholic drinks such as wines (white, rose, red), sparkling wine and various aperitifs. We will heartily recommend this restaurant!!!

“Friendly, welcoming, inclusive and extremely tasty.” - I think that's the best way to describe Käthe. You feel welcome, the service is friendly and the general vibe is just very pleasant. The food is also great. There were four of us and in addition to the main courses we had several starters and desserts, all of which were extremely tasty and had that certain something. We were therefore full and satisfied at the end. :) One small point of criticism: the preparation took a little longer. But apparently there was a breakdown in the kitchen, so it was actually a plus point that everything was still prepared to perfection and with an eye for detail. I rarely give 5 stars because it implies to me that I definitely want to visit the restaurant again. But that was exactly the case here - we made reservations for breakfast that evening because we were so impressed. Which, by the way, was very successful. Breakfast is traditional with everything you'd expect plus a few extras like waffles, chicken meatballs and exciting desserts. All in all, very tasty and certainly not the last time. Since the weather cooperated, windows and doors were open at the front, which created a very open and spring-like atmosphere. All in all, just a place where you feel comfortable. Bonus points for the very pettable house cat. :D

We were here for brunch and helped ourselves to the varied and extensive buffet. We didn't miss anything.

We were here for a wedding. Great location. Beautiful ambiance. Very nice, sheltered outdoor area. The staff is super friendly and the food is truly excellent. We'd love to come back! So delicious. Thank you.

Nice little breakfast buffet, with plenty of choice - I would have liked more fruit and a larger selection of drinks. But still recommended

Very nice restaurant, great service! We had brunch there and were completely satisfied. It was always refilled at any time and nothing was missing.

Super delicious food 🥰 We were there for the first time today and can recommend the chicken sandwich. Service is very attentive and friendly, the atmosphere invites you to linger and everything is very clean. Kind regards and thank you for the great evening 🤗

Excellent food, very friendly service

Great atmosphere, great and delicious food! Be sure to try the crispy chicken!

Every meeting at Käthe is a pleasure! Whether the conversations with the staff or the food offerings, both are great! A place to feel good, sit comfortably with friends or acquaintances or alone, I always feel like I'm in good hands and that the waiters give me great advice. A big compliment to the whole team! For me it has been the best café restaurant in Rostock since last year.

Yesterday I was a guest at a birthday party for the breakfast buffet. Full marks. What more can I say? Super delicious food... for everyone, regardless of orientation, great service and ambiance. I've rarely experienced anything like it. Even if there are few or no parking spaces. There's a parking garage nearby. It's a short walk. As I said, you won't be disappointed here. The guests' needs are taken seriously. The dishes and products presented are of high quality, and the appearance... superb. I ate more than I wanted to. I hope my impression will encourage you to stop by again. Thanks to the team.

A very nice, cozy restaurant. The ambiance is inviting and comfortable. Very attentive, friendly service. The food was very good. The menu also features beautifully crafted dishes. There's something for everyone.

5 stars are not enough...I was here for the first time with my daughter, we are thrilled. The table reservation in advance was brilliantly uncomplicated. Delicious food, magically prepared, something for everyone.... cozy atmosphere with kittens♡....like at home....and not to forget the very, very attentive and nice service. It's a shame that we didn't have much time with us (we had to go to the theater). We will definitely come back!!! Many thanks to the entire team!

Breakfast buffet, price 27 euros per person including drinks. A small place and a lot of people, there were no free tables at all. You have to stand in line for food and jostle in the aisles. Overall the food was quite tasty.

Cozy restaurant with super friendly and attentive service, high quality, very tasty food and reasonable prices. Highlight: the café's own free-roaming cat Käthe

Very good service, relaxed atmosphere, A good selection of dishes including vegetarian and vegan Alcoholic drinks, also a wine list for non-alcoholic wines

The service and the cuisine are excellent. The food is fresh and tastes great. The service provided by Julian deserves special mention!

We went to Women's Day dinner. We felt very comfortable, from the service to the ambience. The food was exceptionally great, everyone enjoyed it very, very well. The cocktails were amazing, we've rarely had such good ones. Keep it up, we can only recommend you.

Came here today for Saturday brunch - we really enjoyed it! Reasonable selection, very friendly service and overall a great experience at a fair price. We will come again, keep it up 😊👍🏼

I absolutely love being here. The food is heavenly and the staff is competent and very nice. And I love "Käthe" - the cat in the Käthe restaurant.

A gem in KTV! We had a wonderful evening in a pleasant atmosphere with warm and attentive hosts. The kitchen was a dream (my girlfriend enjoyed 4 courses)! A really perfect visit all around!! We'll be back and say thank you very much!

Just great. I can really recommend it without reservation.

Das ist das tollste Buffet was ich auf meinen Dienstreisen je hatte. Ein großes Kompliment an die Küche und der Service ist auch sehr zuvorkommend. Da kommen so manche Hotels nicht mit. Wir kommen wieder.

If you enjoy the service (and it is a pleasure) - if you don't want to commit to choosing the dishes because you just want to eat everything and if you get charged an absolutely fair price at the end - then you have it you really had a great evening. Thank you for giving me back my faith in great service and wonderful dishes today. 🙏 We enjoyed it very much.

It's a really cute restaurant with a small menu and a cabaret stage. The service staff are very attentive and warm and the drinks/food were very tasty.

Wow!!! Heartfelt! Flavor explosion! Enjoyment! Warmth! Quality of the highest quality! We are super satisfied - thank you for your great service and culinary delights. ❤️

A gastronomic experience 👍 Hospitable service 🤗 Wonderful food and drinks 👌 Creative cuisine 👩‍🍳 It's rare to find such exemplary gastronomy💯 Thank you!

I had dinner there with my friend on January 3, 2025. We both agreed about visiting Restaurant Käthe. It was just OUTRAGEOUS! - Outrageously good service (relaxed, friendly & fast service) - outrageously delicious food! - outrageously beautifully prepared food - outrageously fair price/performance ratio! Do we recommend eating there? Let's put it this way: If you don't go, it's your own fault! ;-) Thus “threatening” like Restaurant Käthe: You haven't seen the last of us there! ;-) We'll be back soon! Thank you for the delicious food and the lovely evening! LG, Merlin

It was really nice, everything was very small but very comfortable

Food very tasty, staff friendly, but overall very cramped there.

Really great food! Good quality, beautifully presented. Price-performance ratio is right and the service is great. Very friendly staff! Thanks!

Very nice restaurant, clear menu with good tasting dishes, would love to come here again.

The service was extremely friendly, the menu had great (many vegetarian and vegan) dishes and then the food was tasty too! What more could you want? The furnishings were also great, from comfortable chairs to beautiful wall decorations and even the cat with whom I was allowed to share the bench 😉 Oh yes, the drinks menu is also excellent, especially the wide selection of non-alcoholic drinks.

We enjoyed a great Christmas buffet at Käthe. There were cold plates with fish and cheese, Königsberger meatballs and duck with red cabbage and dumplings. To name just a few examples. The food was wonderful and was quickly refilled, so the service was first class and Käthe offered just the right ambience for an unforgettable Christmas dinner. We'll definitely be back! 👍🏻

A quaint, cozy restaurant. The food was great, as was the staff

Nice ambience. Very friendly staff. Super cute cat in the restaurant. We had duck leg and the starter plate for two. Both were reasonably priced, but given the quality they could even be described as cheap. Koch knows his craft. The only drawback we found were the drinks, both soft drinks had too little carbon dioxide in them.

I was there for the first time with friends for a Christmas party and would come again and again. Our waiter was super accommodating and personable, the atmosphere was nice, food and drinks came quickly and we all thought the food was delicious. Very nicely prepared, fresh, warm and harmonious. The menu offers something for every taste, from meat, fish, vegetarian to vegan and yet is not overcrowded. I'm already looking forward to the next visit :-) Many thanks from us for the lovely evening!

This is a little gem you have to make yourself visit. The most wonderful food and really good service. Also, the prices are very reasonable.

Top restaurant, highly recommended!

The food was something different but good. Unfortunately only lukewarm. What we didn't like at all was the house cat that made itself comfortable on our coat rack next to us. She was lured away at our request. However, as an allergy sufferer, I felt very uncomfortable. Although there was no allergic reaction (tears, itchy eyes and shortness of breath), it could have happened. So it's an unpleasant feeling. Too bad. Eckhard Müller

Food is delicious....cocktails too and staff is friendly....there is a ramp for wheelchair users, just ask

Really delicious food with a great selection also for vegetarians, great (also non-alcoholic) cocktails, nice ambience and great service! We'd love to come back!

We had a very nice evening. The service was very friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Always my pleasure.

Great restaurant, our waiter was tip top. Food was great, drinks were good and everything was just perfect!

We always enjoy coming to the restaurant. The service is super professional and friendly and thanks to the changing menu we are always surprised seasonally. The quality and preparation are great. The restaurant definitely belongs at the top in Rostock.

Everything was great, always happy.

Great food, super attentive staff and a great ambience

Super friendly, great food, nice atmosphere.

We went to the Käthe restaurant for dinner today. Everything was great from start to finish. The food was very tasty, the service was very good. We'll be back. M and M

I would love to have dinner with you. I love your consistent, very good food quality, your creativity, the wonderful drinks menu and your high standards of service. Many greetings and see you soon.

Die Speisen waren wirklich köstlich und werden in Erinnerung bleiben. Das Personal war zuvorkommend und die leise Musik ermöglicht es sich gut zu unterhalten.

What a brilliant restaurant experience We had dinner at Käthe with our two boys on Tuesday evening. We were greeted warmly and given the great cat table (really great 😉) Food was super tasty, really great vegetarian and vegan dishes Ambiance cozy Nice company, the cat Käthe at the table But the service was insane. Nice, considerate, simply better than anything I've experienced before. Thank you for this wonderful evening So great, the kids the next day really wanted to eat with you again. And what can I say? Great again. Thank you and see you next time, we're looking forward to it

Very tasty menu, very pleasant service staff, and very pleasant atmosphere. In any case, we would love to come back.

Always nice 😌 There's something for everyone at brunch and the atmosphere is nice and relaxed.

We had dinner here in the evening and I have to say it was a very successful evening from start to finish. The atmosphere is modern, chic and cozy at the same time. The food tasted very good and was beautifully prepared. The staff is very courteous, humorous and attentive. LG and see you next time

Always a highlight. Great food, changing menus and dishes that are not run of the mill. The service is quick and warmly takes care of the guests. I always enjoy coming back. Thanks to Käthe’s team 🥰

The food was excellent and of very high quality. This means that the price-performance ratio is justifiable. We had very nice service and felt completely at home.

Food and service were very good. Ambiance was very cozy. We were extremely satisfied and will have brunch again soon.
