Schifferbörse Restaurant in Hamburg

I could say the best German restaurant in Hamburg, it's worth going to

The restaurant is beautifully designed, when you come in you feel like you are in another world with the wooden paneling and the ships. We ate Plaice Büsumer style and Pannfisch, both of which were very tasty. For dessert, the delicious churros.

A bit noisy, you can hardly have a conversation. Service only comes when called, reordering drinks was difficult.

A very good place with a lot of variety on the menu and the food is excellent. It is always busy and that says a lot about the restaurant, so it is always best to make a reservation.

The ambience is very nice. The food was good, except for the peppery Labskaus. The waitress who served us the food was very friendly. After dinner, we didn't want coffee or dessert. From then on it became noticeably less friendly. We had already paid once and just wanted to finish our drink in peace. Another waiter came and said that since we had already paid, we should leave. The table would already be reserved. So we downed our drink and left. I'm just wondering what would have happened with the reservation if we had ordered dessert. It felt like being kicked out to us. This mass processing is not recommended.

Hamburg Schifferbörse – Nice location, but not a relaxing experience We were at the Schifferbörse with a large group of 20 people and were looking forward to a nice evening. The ambience of the restaurant is really great - maritime and stylish, which immediately creates a special atmosphere. You feel like you have been transported back to the historic seafaring era, which gives the restaurant a unique touch. The food was good, no question. The menu is rather clear, which has its advantages as you are not overwhelmed by too many choices. However, the prices are in the upper range, which is probably what you would expect given the quality of the food and the location. One downside, however, was that the cosiness fell by the wayside that evening. After enjoying our meal and being in a relaxed mood to order a few more bottles of wine, we were politely but firmly informed that we should leave the restaurant as the next reservation was already waiting. That ended the evening abruptly and unfortunately left a somewhat bad aftertaste. With a large group that certainly brought in a corresponding amount of sales, it would have been nice if we had been given more time to linger. Conclusion: Nice location with good food, but unfortunately not quite ideal for a relaxed evening with a larger group. If you want to sit and enjoy in peace for a longer period of time, you should clarify beforehand exactly how much time you have available.

Great place with an amazing atmosphere and very good service.

If you want to try some good schnitzels near Hamburg Train Station, this would be a good place to go. The restaurant has an amazing maritime theme decor and lots of beautiful model ships. One thing I don't like is the lighting is a bit dark. I tried their Wiener Schnitzel, which comes with good portion sizes and nicely cooked pommes frites. The restaurant is conveniently located, and is easy to find as it is directly opposite the train station.

Very friendly service. Food top. Can only be recommended.

A nice restaurant and good food. I can recommend the crab soup and the Labskaus. But the panfish is also worth a try. When making your reservation, you should reserve one of the small niche tables. ; ) However, it is recommended to reserve a table otherwise you will have to wait.

Rustic flair. Food OK, but not a highlight. Portions also good to eat.

Nice restaurant, great service, very tasty food! I can only recommend the crab soup!

Nice service and good food. Highly recommended.

We were here today with 15 people for food and drinks. We made reservations in advance. We can't understand all the 1A great reviews on Google! 50 minutes wait after ordering for the food to arrive When we arrived there wasn't as much going on as there was while we were waiting Some of the food wasn't right. After asking the cellar whether the food was good, we said that some of the food wasn't right. Waiter's statement: then you're out of luck. We then said again that some of the food wasn't right. Then he sat up and apologized shortly afterwards. We were offered a schnapps as an apology. Our meals averaged €25+. In our opinion, absolutely unprofessional service! Location is great, cleanliness is a given But not again for us

Great setup! Love the style of that venue and their attentive staff. Food was also yum! Didnt take too long till you get your main. Starters were served almost immediately. Def worth going there again. Good job!

I can only recommend this great restaurant.

Restaurant with a great ambience. Labskaus was very tasty.

We were here for the first time and loved it. The reception by the service was very friendly and warm so that we immediately felt at home. The rustic and really impressive ship ambience was added. The food was very tasty, we had very tasty crab soup, pan fish with mustard sauce and rump steak with beans. All dishes were very tasty and the rump steak was on point. The prices are reasonable for the quality and also the portion size. A clear recommendation from us if you are in Hamburg.

Great ambience...good food with my sisters will stay in my mind forever ❤

Very nice location, the staff was super friendly (my family wasn't very easy), sometimes a bit disoriented (three times in the evening someone came with drinks that we hadn't ordered), the food was very tasty, everyone ate everything off their plate . We will definitely eat here again

Great restaurant with good food and drinks, nice staff and fair prices. Nice ambience. Can be very noisy at times and the restaurant closes at 11 p.m. as there is a hotel in the upper part of the building.

Very nicely decorated, great ambience, nice dim lighting and very friendly staff

Ok, when it comes to food, I'm still a few percent short of 5 stars. Prices ok.

Having a business dinner.Nice place!

Waiters are nice and friendly. Atmosphere is dimly lit and may pose some problems for people with night blindness. Food wise, the schnitzel is average and the fries were hard. Mushroom sauce is great. You have to tip.

Delicious food in a great atmosphere. Service was nice but not overly fast, which is, however, a high level of complaint

Delicious food in a special place. The ambience was very consistent with the name, the service was very nice and the food also tasted good. Great

So WOW! I can't say it any other way. The food was super tasty. I had the burger and it was fresh and juicy. The fries were also homemade and seasoned deliciously. The ambience was very nicely decorated in a maritime style. So it's no wonder that there is a full house every evening. The service was super nice and accommodating. The only point of criticism would be that there is no window inside and so it can quickly get stuffy in the summer. However, this is still within limits. So you can't get killed in there. So if you are in Hamburg and are looking for a wonderful ambience with wonderful food, I definitely recommend the Schiffbörse. However, I recommend making a reservation in advance.

First the positives: The location is quite nice for a restaurant near the railway station and their wine was Ok. Though, concerning the food, it was rather disappointing. For a fish restaurant, the fish was very dry and obviously prepared without love. My daughter had the children's Schnitzel, but that one was so small (the size of a credit card!) that even a child did not have enough. Concerning the service, it took very long for the main course to be served. Then the starter we ordered came together with the main course, so we send it back. After we saw a mouse running around under the tables inside the restaurant, we informed the staff. From then on they looked at as as if we had brought the mouse in. We refused any further food as well as the half-hearted trials to offer us a digestif in order to compensate for the mouse. We had lost our appetite and had a chocolate bar at home in oder to satisfy our residual hunger. All in all a disappointing experience. We certainly recommend to avoid this place, especially as there are many better restaurants in hamburg, namely those a little further away from the railway station. We believe that the 4,5 Google rating for this restaurant (has/had) is misleading and far from the 2 star experience we had.

This was our third time in Hamburg. But a visit to this restaurant is part of it. Even though this time I was disappointed for the first time. The food, the friendliness, everything was right. Super delicious again this time. But when the beer was served I immediately complained. Half a centimeter below standard. You can complain about the duck beer for €6.5. In response, the operator simply said: Bad luck! And left without any further reaction. Didn't come back either. A while later our food arrived: plaice! This waiter didn't know anything about it and apologized. But I was still in a bad mood. This is not proper behavior and should not happen. Especially here, because the plaice costs 6 euros more than in neighboring restaurants 200 meters away. Only, this ambience doesn't exist a second time. So, still recommended.21

Very nice, friendly staff. Food above average. A bit dark inside for a day visit. Lots of tradition...gladly again.

An old colleague of mine took me here during my visit to Hamburg as I wanted to go somewhere authentically “German” (by Hamburg standards). Schifferborse did not disappoint! We both ordered the schnitzel “Seaman” style, which adds two fried eggs and small shrimp on top of the schnitzel. Being a massive port city, Hamburg cuisine tends to have a seafood component to it, so it’s a nice change of pace from the more traditional German-style schnitzels. Service is efficient and friendly. The menu is in German and English as well. The ambiance is a mix of old-world Germany and the set of a “Pirates” movie, I liked it! I’ll note that there is no A/C (no place really has A/C in Hamburg) in the restaurant; I only mention it because we ate there on one of the warmest evenings I’ve ever experienced in Hamburg, so it was “toasty”, to say the least. This is a great spot that I’d return to on my next trip to Hamburg.

What a great restaurant! Friendly staff, the food fantastic and the ambience unique. Table reservation is essential...

It's an absolutely fantastic ambience, especially with the large ship floating in the middle of the room.

the food was delicious However, even though I was first in line, the person behind me was guided first. The people behind us were shown to an open seat, and we were shown to a dark corner seat. Also, while I was eating for a while, he suddenly removed the table next to me without any explanation and looked at me like I was embarrassed, and only then did he say sorry. It was tasty, but everything else was terrible.

Food was very tasty and the restaurant was nicely decorated. Worth a recommendation

We were here on a Friday evening with a reservation. The staff is extremely friendly and the food is home-style. This was my second time here and I would recommend it.

Extremely cool atmosphere with the old ships and the maritime decoration. The food and service were first class, but you can also feel that in the price.

It's a very nice place. All dishes are delicious

Schifferbörse – charming ambience and solid cuisine The Schifferbörse impresses with its unique maritime ambience, which immediately transports you to a cozy harbor atmosphere. The service is friendly and attentive, which makes the visit very pleasant. We tried various dishes such as burgers, steak and schnitzel - everything was solidly prepared and tasted okay. Particularly noteworthy is the charming ambience, which makes the visit a special experience. For anyone looking for an atmospheric restaurant with good cuisine and authentic flair, the Schifferbörse is a good choice.

It’s really delicious. Dessert is a god.

It deserves an A++ from me. Great location, nice, humorous staff. Very tasty food, good portions. Mega

Ideal to try the typical dishes of the area, such as the “pedcador's vomit” among others. Reasonable price. Excellent quality

We are in Hamburg for a short time and went to this restaurant twice. The fish is the best I've ever eaten! I find the service very nice and friendly. However, I find it a bit dark inside but otherwise highly recommended

Very nice meal cooked to perfection and a lovely beer to wash it down.

Quite surprised because with the theme park aspect of the decor, I thought that the food would not be of good quality and in reality even if the fish and chips were simple the vegetarian beetroot risotto was really good. Good portions served quickly.

very tasty dishes, I especially liked the schnitzel.

For some reason, I couldn't get into the store. Customers who came later were allowed inside. I was told that I could sit anywhere outside. Even though there were 3 people, there was no table setting. The table shown outside is a smoking area. . . I don't smoke, so it was very painful for me. While we were eating, we were asked to help move the restaurant because they wanted to create seating for six people. Even though they didn't make me a seat the other day, I feel there is a disparity in the response. Here, everyone was polite and there was no problem with the dress code. The food was delicious. However, I can't say that the customer service is very good.

Waited 10 minutes for service. Then I left

Love love the place and the decorations, staff are friendly and smiling all the time , food was really good and satisfying, highly recommended the place.

Food quite excellent. Staff very nice and accommodating. Price-performance ratio also fits.

Very nice and quiet place where you can choose to try typical food from the city, this was the main reason why we decided to eat at this restaurant, seeing the good reviews that accompanied it. The food is delicious, unfortunately, due to a misunderstanding one of the dishes was wrong. Our intention and as we thought we let the waitress know was to order a typical schnitzel from the city and not the hamburger that they brought us, but hey, despite this mistake, the food was good. We didn't eat the burger with the same enthusiasm due to confusion, as we were disappointed. But the labskaus, even though it is not eye-catching, was very delicious, we liked it. Recommended if you want to try everyday food from the city.

Anyone who enters the restaurant at the otherwise uninviting back of the main train station will be surprised. You enter a large, high, wood-paneled hall decorated with ship's equipment and immediately feel like you are in another century. The food on offer is classic North German cuisine, it's tasty, it's quick and the portions are very large. The service was good. For me as a Hamburger, the visit here was also worth it.

Every time we are in Hamburg we visit the Schifferbörse. The food and also the service are excellent. The interior of the restaurant is special. The location is also nice, right next to the train station and not far from the Binnenalster and the town hall.

Amazing place. Every time I am in Hamburg I visit there and I often book there to show people from outside how a traditional restaurant with great ambiente and food looks like. Great for tourists, family occasions, as well as business meetings. Also very fair prices for something this special.

Great interior design. Like inside a ship

Very nice place. We ate very well and the staff was friendly. Advised!

Ended up here by chance and weren't disappointed, even though it's a very touristy shop. Service was quick and friendly, food was brought quickly and was very tasty, especially the fish. Card payment possible.

The portions are too small 👎 and the taste is disgusting 🤢🤮 and the service is beyond criticism

Great restaurant, right at the main station. Very lovingly decorated, everything a bit dusty. Food was delicious, service was very quick and friendly. We would come again. Only the menu is only available digitally, which is environmentally friendly, but somehow doesn't fit with the ambience

We stumbled into the Schifferbörse for dinner today and were pleasantly surprised! Even if the target group here is clearly tourists, which is unfortunately often not a good sign, both the service and the food were good. My cod fillet in a panko coating with fries as a side dish was really tasty, well portioned and completely reasonable in terms of price. The waiters were friendly and on the ball. The atmosphere itself is a bit rustic and loud, but lived up to expectations. Overall, highly recommended 👍

Cool location. Had super nice service. Food good.

Delicious food and a great team, which also made our family of 18 happy! Clear recommendation!

Very good restaurant. Fish tastes very good and the price-performance ratio is also really good. Very friendly staff. Any time.

Perfect.... I don't have to say anything more

Exceptional ambience, friendly service, great food!

There was only chatter behind the bar and dirty glasses were left standing for a long time.

We ate there twice. Simply mega. A must for everyone who is in Hamburg.

A great restaurant with very nice staff, great ambience and very tasty food. We'll be back.

Great service, large portions with very good quality and reasonable prices! Atmosphere cozy but very dark, good for the cold season. Recommended!

The location is very close to the station which is convenient. Nice decor and they serve a very good schnitzel!

Your wallet cries a little, but your stomach laughs! Super delicious food in a great atmosphere and the waitresses were very friendly and polite! Absolute recommendation!

Best Labskaus I've ever eaten. Very friendly staff and an incredibly great atmosphere. Highly recommended. Come here more often...

Delicious food, very nice ambience. Unfortunately, the air in the shop is almost too crowded when it is very full; a little more fresh air supply would be more pleasant here.

Not just 4 years ago, but also today everything was perfect, the food, the drinks, new lighting and wonderful atmosphere... again and again and always with pleasure M. Wagner Nice restaurant...Thanks to the managers, great service and the mixed fish platter, Lugana white wine and nice atmosphere!

My hotel suggested this restaurant as I asked for a local seafood place to try while visiting Hamburg for the weekend. What a great recommendation and experience! From start to finish the service, ambiance, and of course cuisine was five stars. Coming from Stuttgart I wanted as much seafood and local Hamburg specialties as possible. The local schnapps and local beer were a great accompaniment to the shrimp bisque and surf and turf dinner that I had. Lisa my server could not have been more attentive and helpful and her excellent English and customer service just made my visit that much more enjoyable. I highly recommend this restaurant which has non-seafood and vegetarian options as well.

Very nice and characteristic place. Welcoming and unique environment. Good typical German dishes!

1A restaurant with a great ambience and incredibly good cuisine. The panfish is absolutely recommended!

This was our first time eating here because a good friend recommended this restaurant to us. 🤗 Very great location, good service & delicious food. 😘 Definitely coming back! 😎

Nice restaurant with nice staff

Everything was great. I ate my first plaice there in over 30 years and it was so delicious, the staff was friendly, the atmosphere was very nice and the view outside was simply great. I say that the food was very tasty and everything was fresh

Food was ok... you can go there again. Service is great... Personally, I find the ambience a bit dark

Great tasty food. Very good service, very child friendly. Strong interior. Simply an all-round successful performance. Definitely coming back.

Food & service is great and decent portions! Went here twice while travelling.

Very nicely decorated restaurant with lots of maritime details and ship models. The service was friendly and reserved. It was busy and the food came quite quickly. The drinks took a while to arrive. The fish grill plate was very tasty and a large portion - unfortunately a bit cold and the fish was very crispy/well grilled. It's very dark in the restaurant, which has charm, but also seems a bit dim.

To be fair, I can't judge the food. Table has been reserved. Friendly female waiters gave us the choice of choosing a table outside. The only acceptable table for two in the shade was extremely dirty. So, without further ado, we chose a table for four. It didn't take long before an unfriendly waiter came out and wanted to take us to the dirty two-room, saying that the table was reserved. Well, we did, find the mistake. He's either just fundamentally misogynistic or homophobic to boot. Even if it's a long-established tourist check-in, we don't value our money to leave it with such rude macho men.

Great restaurant with great cuisine. The fish dishes are particularly impressive. The staff is very friendly and loves children. The five of us ate very well. The ambience is impressive.

5/5 stars. We are absolutely thrilled! The food is served in a truly stunning setting. You get the feeling of sitting in the captain's cabin of an old sailing ship like in the times of Christopher Columbus. Just breathtaking. The food was also very fresh and tasty and the price was completely reasonable. In addition to fresh fish, 2-3 meat dishes are also offered, so there is also something for non-fish lovers. :-) However, I would advise making a reservation in advance. Service was extremely friendly, courteous and on point. We were served by the waitress Janti Janti, who deserves a lot of praise. Thank you for your great service! ❤️

Great restaurant in the middle of a not so great area. The staff was super attentive, friendly and the food was delicious. The ambience means you have a lot to discover all the time and feel comfortable. When we are in Hamburg again, we will come by again. 😊

Very very tasty food. The plaice was perfectly fried, the cucumber salad was tasty and not mushy and the fried potatoes were simply great. I have rarely eaten so well!

Very tasty food, stylish restaurant. Was also close to our hotel. Really good.

Very tasty and a beautiful atmosphere.

Was a guest in August and was very satisfied. Nice service and great ambience 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Prices are also okay

Very tasty food. The service was very nice and the decor was very rustic - we are very satisfied!

Inconspicuous from the outside, but inside you feel like you're in another world.

2024.07.14: was a bit sceptical about the place, only because of its close proximity to the Hbf. But it was a misconception from my side, the place is really nice, cool design it has, nice staff and also super quick service. We had a Labskaus and it was very tasty.

Very tasty food at fair prices. Highly Recommended.

Ambience and service are great. The food was quite good, but very overpriced for the portion size!

Nice atmosphere, nice staff. The food is very bland and super overpriced (3 small pieces of fish including a side dish for the grill plate for over €30) and very little sauce for the herring fillet. Definitely doesn't correspond to 4.5 stars. It's unclear where so many good reviews come from.

The Schifferbörse offers a unique maritime atmosphere and excellent food. I was particularly impressed by the fresh fish dishes and the attentive, friendly service. A visit is absolutely recommended!
