Schänke zum Wels in Bad Zwischenahn

Wonderfully located with a view of Lake Steinhude. An exciting mix of interiors. Attentive, friendly service. Delicious food at a fair price.

Definitely a must-go! Delicious eel, great view of the sea. Friendly, quick service.

Very good. Hot summer days don't stand a chance. North facing. It's ideal. Therefore, parasols aren't necessary. The tarte flambée is very good. Service is friendly and quick. Definitely recommended.

For me, this was last year's discovery... somewhat hidden away... with a lawn in front of the house with seating. You look out over Lake Zwischenahner and feel like you're on vacation. A jetty beckons you to step out onto the water... at the end, there's a bench. It can get a bit windy on the terrace... fantastic on hot days. Inside, rustic, cozy decor... friendly service – we highly recommend the baked potato.

Great location. Good service. Insider tip.

A very nice restaurant with extensive opening hours and a very nice outdoor area. Unfortunately, there was nothing left to eat on Sunday evening; everything was sold out. But everything was available again on Monday. The eel dishes are very tasty and relatively inexpensive. Friendly service. Many locals also like to go here.

Good, but not with children... Since nothing else is open on the waterfront on Mondays, we came here spontaneously. The view of the water was super beautiful. The service was friendly, but seemingly alone, which led to long waits. The food for us adults was excellent. Only the selection and execution of the children's dishes wasn't so great. We opted for scrambled eggs with toast for our daughter. We asked for ketchup: we don't have any ketchup!!! The scrambled eggs arrived and they were studded with chives, which, of course, wasn't listed anywhere. Greens in a children's dish? And no child needs a salad bouquet on the plate with oil and vinegar like the adults have. Perhaps they should rethink the children's menu. Conclusion: As an adult, you can really spend a lovely summer evening here, but I would absolutely not recommend it with children.

Nice ambiance. The food tastes good. The menu is relatively small. The service is friendly. The prices are reasonable.

I was there with friends yesterday and ordered a large glass of East Frisian tea. As I was about to drink the rest of the glass in one big gulp, I suddenly had a piece of glass in my mouth and almost choked. When I went to the waitress with it, all I got was "oh, we'll pay attention to that in the future." When paying, I had to point out that I wasn't paying for the tea, and the only response I got was "oh, okay." I received no apology or any other kind of accommodating gesture; overall, the staff was very unimpressed by the fact that a piece of glass in a drink can be quite dangerous. Mistakes can happen, but the way they handled it really irritates me. I probably won't go there again and unfortunately can't recommend it to anyone.

Great cocktails and great ambience

Great place. Friendly service, and you can sit outside right by the lake. The waffles are the best ☺

Great location...right on the Zwischenahner Meer...

Yes, very idyllic and an insider tip... right on the sea and great service!

A restaurant as it should be. Recommended even for a spontaneous visit. I definitely recommend my North Sea crab black bread with scrambled eggs.

A beautiful spot right on the lake. Affordable prices.

Small, cozy pub right on the pier of Lake Zwischenahner. A clear menu with something for everyone. The ham and bread are plentiful and of good quality, served on a decorative wooden board. I had the excellent maneuver plate with eel, scrambled eggs, bread, and butter: super delicious. Service was fast and friendly. Updated July 25: Just enjoyed a wonderful strawberry sundae, charmingly served. Excellent service, even though it was very busy.

Yes, but don't forget to make a reservation

Delicious food and always friendly staff. The location is beautiful, and the sea view is very relaxing. We're always happy to come back.

I visited this wonderful restaurant yesterday with my best friend. It offers a fantastic view of Lake Zwischenahner from the terrace. We went there first for coffee and then again for dinner after a walk by the lake. We thoroughly enjoyed it. The service, atmosphere, food, and drinks were unbeatable. We'll be back. Thank you. 😊

Good selection of dishes, very cozy

Cozy little dining room with a view of Lake Zwischenahner. Camembert with toast and cranberries is delicious.

So everyone can evaluate the price increase for themselves but I do not think it is appropriate to increase the prices by around 30 percent

Great! After a long hike, we visited the Schänke zum Wels today. We had an excellent chili con carne there. The chili had just the right amount of spice for us. It was served with a fresh baguette. For dessert, we had a small tarte flambée with apple, cinnamon, and sugar. Absolutely delicious. We would especially like to mention the extremely friendly service staff. One of their specialties is the fresh waffles they offer. You can enjoy the food with a view of Lake Zwischenahner. Plenty of outdoor seating. We'd love to come back!

Leider wurden in den letzten Monaten 2x die Preise erhöht! Chilli für € 13,50 und Aperol für € 9,50 sind schön sehr hochpreisig!! (man bedenke. die Mwst in der Gastronomie wurde auf 7% gesenkt!) Ansonsten ein sehr schöner Ort um die Seele baumeln zu lassen.

That was fantastic! Nice and friendly service. The food was very good.

Gutes Eis und leckere Waffeln aber ein sehr zerstreuter Service. Es dauerte alleine 20 Minuten, bis überhaupt jemand an den Tisch kam. Ein Eis, eine Waffel, eine Tasse Kaffee und ein alkoholfreies Weizen waren schnell bestellt. Nach weiteren 20 Minuten kamen Eis und Kaffee und zumindest das Besteck für die Waffel. Auf die Frage nach der Waffel und dem Bier kam ein knappes "kommt gleich". Wieder 20 Minuten später kam dann die Waffel. Mein Kaffee war mittlerweile kalt, das Eis fast gegessen, der Rest geschmolzen. Wieder erfolgte die Frage nach dem Weizenbier - die Antwort "kommt gleich". Wieder 15 Minuten später war es und genug - rein ins Lokal, die Rechnung verlangt und gegangen. Auf meine Frage, ob man davon ausgehen könne, dass das Weizenbier nicht mehr kommt, kam keinerlei Antwort. Dabei schien man Zeit und Personal zu haben, denn die freien Tische draußen wie drinnen wurden geputzt, als wäre es ein OP-Saal. Sauberkeit ist immer gut, aber das mache ich, wenn alles andere erledigt ist. Für mich ein Touri-Hotspot, der von Durchreisen lebt, die nie wieder kommen.

The first time I was there, I felt very comfortable and felt like I was walking around the entire Badzwischenahn sea and the conditions were also very friendly. Thank you for that, you'll be happy to come back

Great location on the Zwischenahner Meer, very good selection of food - lovingly prepared by the boss.

I always like to stop by there. Very nice staff and friendly. Great value for money for me. I will come again.

Wunderschön direkt am See gelegen, allerdings in einem gruseligen Wohnblock. Aber man sollte den Blick auf den See richten, dann sieht man das Haus nicht. Zum Kaffee auf der Terrasse ganz gut, der Kuchen (Auswahl zwischen zwei Sorten) mittelmäßig. Die Bedienung deutlich überlastet und überfordert, eilte mit Speisen mehrfach quer über die Terrasse und suchte, wer es wohl bestellt haben könnte. Aber bestimmt lernfähig und auch ganz nett. Also insgesamt mit viel Potential nach oben.

I like to come here on Sundays.

Small, cozy tavern with delicious small meals.

A small tavern on the Zwischenahnermeer, a little away from the tourist crowds, which is definitely recommended. Good price-performance ratio.

Great restaurant and very nice service

Recently discovered, already been there twice. Very tasty food & friendly staff. 😃👋

Super quaint and cozy, very popular on a rainy Sunday. Had a wonderful seat by the window. Service was super friendly, food was okay, cake was also on offer. Can be recommended with a clear conscience

Excellent atmosphere and good service. Your waitress is excellent and good treatment...

Wait a long time to order and then you will be forgotten when you want to pay the bill. Thanks, but no.

A paradise of bliss, with friendly service, good food and no disturbing music. And free of charge, the Zwischenahner Meer in an evening atmosphere on your doorstep!

Beautiful view of the Zwischenahner Meer. It's good if you have time and leisure and want to enjoy the lake view. Not for people in a hurry who just want to have a quick coffee. The service needs to be optimized and the willingness to lend a hand is required: "Please hold your coffee while I clear the table."

The tavern at am Wels is a real insider tip. Far away from the usual gastronomy, the tavern offers an incredibly relaxed panorama, great service, a manageable menu (which I always think is great) and humane prices.

Can only recommend, super delicious food. Great environment a nice place to relax....

It's only a 10-minute walk from the motorhome parking space at the Badepark. Chili con carne was very tasty and a mega portion 😋 Crab bread with fried eggs was simply awesome 🤤 plus the view of the water 🥰 Pure relaxation 😎 Service was super good ☺️

Nice view of the sea. This is apparently factored into the prices. It won't be the food itself. The waitress didn't really deserve the tip.

Very tasty food. Nice personel. Friendly atmosphere. Unfortunately the sun disappeared from midday onwards... but it was still nice to be on the water. 👍⛵

Great location right on the Zwischenahner Meer. Easily accessible from the cycle path around the lake. Magnificent view over the long white jetty of the water. Stylish furnishings, good outdoor seating. The two ladies from the service who served us were both very friendly, despite the large crowd on Sunday afternoon. The waiting time was pleasantly short. The tea specialties are very good. A good selection of regional fish specialties.

The ambience is unique and beautifully situated right on the water, where you can look directly at/across the lake at the boats and ships. The service was very quick and courteous and on recommendation I took a blueberry ice cream sundae (which is not on the menu due to the season) and it was very tasty. I recommend everyone to stay here because it's worth it.

Nice location right by the sea. Simple but delicious dishes. Very nice and attentive service.

Location top - service flop! We were there on Sunday afternoon around 2 p.m. Due to the impending thunderstorm, the outdoor restaurant was moderately attended. Estimated 15-20 people. The service was carried out by three young ladies that day. We sat down at a free table that still had the cups and plates from the previous guests. When one of the ladies came to take our order she said she would come right back and clear the table. We ordered two coffees and asked for the menu because we also wanted to order cake or ice cream. The card came, but the table was not cleared. Her colleague then brought the coffee and cleared the table. When asked what cake there would be today, this lady replied: "I can't say, I've only just started". We then wanted to order waffles, but none of the ladies were to be seen outside. At some point one of the waitresses from inside came outside. There was no response to a wink or a friendly “Hello”. We then decided to pay and leave, just tell who...? When another lady showed up outside, we told her that we would like to pay. “I’ll let my colleague know” was the answer. When this colleague still didn't come after 15 minutes, we decided to pay inside. Inside we were told that the colleague would be coming out soon and that we couldn't pay inside. After waiting outside for another 10 minutes for the colleague in question, we were finally able to pay. After waiting for almost half an hour. I would have understood if all the tables had been fully occupied, but as already mentioned, there were a maximum of 15 guests in the outside area at the time. CONCLUSION: No repeat visit and absolutely no recommendation.

Picked up dad.. Short stop.. Nice right on the water 😉

A wonderful place to end the evening in peace. We were there for the first time on Wednesday and would love to come back! 5 stars from me for everything ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Totally nice staff and beautiful view

Very nice view of the Zwischenahner Meer

A little hidden, but a great place

Asparagus tour, all you can eat... perfect food, very nice service, what more could you want. We will be back

Stopped here after a bike tour 4 stars only the bill at the end was too high.

Always nice to sit there, relax and eat delicious little things and drink delicious dark beer. Thanks to Tanja and her girls.

Good food, great view of the lake, friendly service

Cozy restaurant right on the Zwischenahner Meer. Very friendly service. A place to drink a beer or have a bite to eat in peace and quiet.

Nice service, nice view. Unfortunately there is no vegan milk alternative available for coffee :(

Great food, delicious East Frisian tea and great staff

Once you sit down you will be rewarded with a beautiful view of the Zwischenahner Meer, with courteous service and very tasty food. My vegan tarte flambée was very tasty.

I had an East Frisian tea, it could have been hotter

Great place that I always like to come back to. Good bistro food with a great view and super nice staff!

Nice ambience. It takes a while to be served. It takes time for the order to arrive. It wasn't well attended but the empty tables weren't cleared and the service was a bit haphazard but friendly

Very cozy, delicious food 😋very nice, friendly service. We'll be happy to come back.

There is no other place where you can sit comfortably and quietly so close to the sea.

Original “pub” with a maritime flair in a beautiful location, with a friendly owner

Very nice bistro/restaurant right on the lake. Very friendly service. Delicious little things and cakes. Very nice atmosphere, no standard furnishings.

Nice little restaurant with a lake view. Delicious food at reasonable prices

Waited 30 minutes without any service. Never again ;)

Schöne Ecke direkt am Wasser, superschneller und netter Service

Dieses Jahr wieder dort gewesen. Tolle Kleinigkeiten gegessen, ganz frisch und schön angerichtet. Ich mag die lieben Menschen dort, die Aussicht und das Essen. Preise immer noch absolut moderat. Erst waren wir ein bisschen skeptisch , da an den Hochhäusern soll eine gute Kneipe sein ? Jaaaaaa es ist so , was für ein schöner Ort . Die Aussicht ist fantastisch , das Lokal schön urig , die Menschen einfach nur klasse. Schnelle Bedienung von tollen Frauen , locker und absolut professionell. Das Essen war schön frisch und alles schmeckte bis jetzt gut .Es gibt mehr Kleinigkeiten , aber umso besser , kann man mehr probieren . Wir kommen bestimmt wieder und hoffen auf einen freien Platz am Meer.

Für uns immer wieder die perfekte Einkehr bei einem Spaziergang oder einer Fahrradtour um das schöne Zwischenahner Meer. Sympathischer Service der einen rundum gut mit der großen Getränkeauswahl und den leckeren Speisen aus der Küche glücklich macht! Nachmittags ganz frisch gebackene Waffeln direkt aus dem Eisen... köstlich! Gekrönt wird das ganze durch den wunderschönen Ausblick von der gepflegten Seeterrasse, wo man so richtig die Seele baumeln lassen kann, während man gastronomisch verwöhnt wird! Herrlich!!!

Ruhiger Ort mit tollem Ausblick. Leider haben wir länger auf unsere Bestellung warten müsse.

Kühles Bier 🍺 gutes Ambiente, freundlicher Service und Schattenplatz.. was will man mehr bei 29°c 👍

Tolle Lage mit Blick auf's Meer. Leckere Torte und gute Getränke zu zivilen Preisen. Suuuper netter Service!

Bei bestem Wetter im Außenbereich die schöne Aussicht aufs Zwischenahner Meer genossen und das leckere Essen, einfach super !

Wir hatten einen tollen Abend mit bestem Blick auf das "Meer" 🍷

Man kann dort direkt auf das Zwischenahner Meer schauen und den Abend genießen. Nette Bedienung und das Essen war lecker.

Gemütlicher Ort zum Entspannen, wenn man sich den Wohnblock weg denkt.

Schönes Ambiente, nette Bedienung und angemessene Preise.

Es war lecker , gemütlich und sehr freundlicher Service

Wer auf das Zwischenahner Meer schauen möchte ein leckeres Essen und bei einem Getränk was auch immer gemütlich sitzen möchte ist hier genau richtig.

Es war urgemütlich draußen zu sitzen und auf das Meer zu schauen und dabei eine heiße Schokolade mit Rum zu trinken

Wunderschön, die Chefin ist super. Ambiente hat sich in den Jahren so verändert.... Es ist draußen von Jahr zu Jahr immer schöner geworden. Markisen ermöglichen das Sitzen bei Sonne. Der Blick auf das Bad Zwischenahner Meer ist traumhaft. Ein Besuch kann ich jedem ans Herz legen.

Sehr nettes maritimes Lokal. Ob Kaffee oder Tee mit Blick auf den See das ist echt scheee.😉😊

Lecker Roggenbrot und sehr freundliches Personal immer gerne wieder 😉

Sehr schönes Lokal. Mit Blick auf Zwischenahner Meer. Ambiente sehr schön. Essen super.

Die Inneneinrichtung ist wunderschön maritim. Sehr nette und freundliche Bedienung.

Sehr schönes Lokal und nette Leute

Schöne Lage direkt am Bad Zwischenahner Meer

Sehr kleine Portion, nur kleine Auswahl, Blick auf den See, unfreundliche Bedieung, nicht zu empfehlen

Top Lage! Mit gepflegten Getränken!

Gemütlich um ein Glas Wein 🍷 zu trinken und im Sommer einen Eisbrecher. Hätten dort gerne Silvester gefeiert mit dem schönen Blick auf dem See.

Sehr schöne Location, einzigartige Aussicht auf das Meer. Sehr nette und freundliche Bedienung. Leckere Heißgetränke, besonders der Lumumba ...

Der Service war sehr freundlich, die Waffeln frisch gebacken und lecker, der klassische Ostfriesenteee war von guter Qualität.

Freundlicher, schneller Service, gutes Essen. Schinken mit Brot kommt als gute Portion mit Schwarzbrot, preiswert. Ich hatte den Manöverteller: 3 Stück Aal-filet, Rührei, Schwarzbrot, Butter; alles sehr gut.

Mit einem schönen Blick auf das Bad Zwischenahner Meer haben wir ein leckeres Mittagessen mit Schorle, Flammkuchen und Back-Camembert genossen. Die Bedienung war sehr freundlich. Der Außen- sowie Innenbereich sind sehr gemütlich. Wir kommen gern einmal wieder.

Außenbereich am Meer. Sehr nette Bedienung. Flammenkuchen und Suppen schmecken sehr gut. Besuch lohnt sich.
