STRANDCAFÉ - Restaurant & Terrasse in Lübben (Spreewald)

We got stranded there too. Great cafe with a nice large outdoor terrace. We were thrilled with the service and the Plinse. We were satisfied and would like to come back

Super delicious food and the coffee is heavenly. The ambience is so so beautiful, sitting by the window or in these wonderful armchairs by the fireplace. Why we don't come back... We went canoeing, so we were traveling by boat. Maybe we didn't see it. We are both in our mid-30s. So while we were warming up, we looked on our cell phone to see where our campsite was, etc Then the waitress suddenly says incredibly loudly and really disgustingly: “The youth of today. Can’t you talk anymore?” Um, what? How nasty can you actually be to your customers? So everyone has a bad day sometimes, but that's not possible.

The Lübben beach café in the Spreewald is perfect for a little break in between! The snacks are fine and ideal for a small hunger. The seats with a view of the canal are particularly nice - here you can sit relaxed, enjoy the view and watch the activity on the water. A cozy stopover in the middle of the countryside!

Spontaneous trip to Lübben..."stranded" on the sunny terrace at the pier. Delicious cafe and plinse and great ice cream sundaes. Wonderful... then two delicious cocktails afterwards, enjoyed in the sun! Fantastic... Super attentive, quick service! Spontaneous boat trip from the pier... Stopped in again in the evening and had 1x catfish and 1x ox cheek...it was also really tasty. Quality has its price, as does good service...we're happy to pay for everything together! Keep it up...thanks again for the great afternoon and evening with you! 😘

Beautiful atmosphere, very friendly staff and even better food, highly recommended.

We have reserved a table for 6 people for breakfast. The service was absolutely great. Breakfast costs €25.90 per person and it is absolutely worth the money! The selection of food is insane. Everything is regional and freshly prepared. So much choice that you can't try everything. The rolls and bread were super tasty. The spreads too. There was nothing that wasn't tasty. We felt completely comfortable and were absolutely full afterwards. 😂 We will definitely come back.

Great ambience with a view of the water. Fast and friendly service. Unfortunately, the taste of the food wasn't as great as the external impression suggested. The recommendation of the service staff Pumpkin soup was relatively tasteless. The main courses (ox cheeks and stuffed cabbage) also lacked the wow factor that one had expected in this environment. Too bad,

We stopped there after the boat trip. Great café with ice cream, apple strudel, etc. However, there is no real ice cream menu and there is little on offer for children.

Freundlicher und schneller Service. Gehobenes Ambiente. Geschmacklich war das Essen OK, aber ohne wow Effekt. Der Kartoffelstampf zum Rinderbäckchen schmeckte nach Tüte. Auch die Kohlroulade war kein herausragendes Erlebnis, sondern schmeckte wie überall im normalen Gasthaus. Wie schon vorher ein Rezensent bemerkte:mehr Schein als sein.

The ladies at the cucumber stand are really a disgrace, I waited 30 minutes to buy cucumbers and no response. Instead, they slurp spaghetti and make fun of the customers. Maybe. The owner should think about having capable staff who really want to work. All you can say is shame on you.

Food didn't taste like much, it took a long time to arrive and was very expensive. But a cat was allowed in :)

Very nicely located in the city. Nice and attentive service and good selection

Good food, nice location along the water

You can read in advance on the website that reservations are required. And you should take that seriously, especially on weekend evenings you can't do much without a reservation. We were greeted very friendly and shown to our table. The menu offers something for every taste without being overloaded. Drinks and food were brought quickly, the quality of the food can only be described as absolutely great!!! The staff were always attentive and courteous without being intrusive. At the end, as always, comes the bill. Yes, the prices are higher than at the snack bar or various fast food restaurants. But if you get first-class quality food and drinks, from great staff who know what they're doing, in a really nice atmosphere, then yes, it can cost something. We were definitely very satisfied and would love to come back!

Fantastic food and very nice and attentive staff. This was our second time eating at the beach café and we weren't disappointed again. On the first visit we had beef cheeks and a Celebrate Life Bowl, both of which were fantastic. Today we had the cabbage roll and the potato curry. Plus the cucumber salad, which brought back absolute childhood memories. It tasted just like my father always made it back then. We had another wonderful evening in the beach café, thank you very much and we will definitely be back. Kind regards Sebastian and Janine

A beautifully located restaurant. Service very friendly, food tasty

Beautiful localization and design. The prices are correspondingly high, but the food comes very quickly. It's always worth it to have something to eat quickly with a wonderful view. Prices are not low.

Nice cafe with a large selection of coffee and delicious cakes. Directly at the port of the Spree.

Just wanted to stop for a drink, but it turned into a cozy evening right by the water with a great view. Service was very attentive, quick and polite. Gladly again

We were there today for the first and last time and were disappointed. Waited 50 minutes for the food, I think they had forgotten about us. The food itself was carelessly prepared, nothing seasoned...forgot the salad. Price/performance is not possible at all!!!!Not recommended for us!!!

Quick and easy check-in and check-out. Nice accommodation. For dinner we had cabbage roulade with a lot of potential. Food was only lukewarm, potatoes weren't cooked through and the roulade was pale, too much cabbage with stalks.

Our impression is ambivalent. The ambience is fantastic, you sit on a beautiful terrace directly on the Spree. The service was also great, it was quick and friendly. But the food disappointed us a little. We had schnitzel Viennese style and horseradish schnitzel. The side dishes (fries and potato salad) were very good, but the schnitzels themselves were not at all crispy and otherwise tasted relatively neutral. We would have expected more given the slightly higher prices.

The beach cafe looks very inviting and high quality. It literally invites you to linger. There is a sign at the entrance that says "please wait, you will be seated". You prepare yourself to wait, but when three or four waiters walk past you and don't even respond with eye contact or signs, I find that very sad. We then left with a larger group of women behind us. Unfortunately I can't comment on the food, service etc as we didn't get around to it.

What a great view you have outside when the weather is nice. Simply a great ambience and very friendly service are offered. The food is tasty, but the selection was quite small and I didn't really get full.

No card payment! Where do we live then?

When we ordered we asked if it could be taken away. It was confirmed. When the order was ready there were paper plates with no way to cover it. It was tasty but not what we wanted. Very unfortunate.

Very good service, nice staff, very nice atmosphere.

A beautifully located restaurant, right on the water, very well maintained. There are several vegan dishes on the menu, all of which sound delicious. We had a cucumber plate and a cucumber cup - a sorbet with almond crumble and currant jam - a dream. I would particularly like to emphasize the extremely friendly and attentive service!

I bought a bottle of water and a fried fish in a roll at the beach snack bar, which is part of the beach cafe. Previously, I wanted to eat outside of the restaurant. The assigned table was in the third row in the sun. No service possible at any of the tables right by the water, everything was wet from the rain, no service. There were chairs by the water at the concession stand. The fish there was inedible. Not only did it have the charm of old frying fat, but it also had a rancid aftertaste. A large sign indicates that payment is only made in cash, which is explained by the fact that there is no cash register at all. So there is neither a receipt nor a proper invoice. When I asked, there was a handwritten receipt from the pad, without any information about VAT, nor a tax number, which is mandatory information. One star is too many here.

..among other things, we ordered 2 small glasses of wine (explicitly mentioned “small” on the menu several times). Unfortunately, we were each given a large glass (double the amount), which is of course a lot more expensive. Since the waitress took the order electronically and we mentioned the smaller glass several times, we assume it was intentional. After we pointed this out to the waitress (after delivery) she was just told to drink half and leave the rest. It would then be dumped away. Conclusion: Check order and invoice! Otherwise too much will be delivered. However, the bill was then corrected to the small glass. But the food and ambience are great, prices are comparatively high.

The Lübben Strand Café has proven to be a true gem in the region. My visit there was thoroughly enjoyable and definitely deserves a 5-star rating. Here are some of the highlights: 1. **Atmosphere:** The café offers a beautiful view of the surrounding waters. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, perfect for getting away from it all and enjoying nature. The furnishings are stylish and cozy at the same time, which makes your stay even more pleasant. 2. **Service:** The staff was consistently friendly, attentive and professional. As a guest you feel welcome and well looked after here. The service was quick and competent, even during peak times. 3. **Food and Drinks:** The selection of food and drinks is impressive. There is a good mix of traditional dishes and creative new creations. Particularly noteworthy are the fresh, locally sourced ingredients, which give the dishes a special taste. The cakes and desserts are an absolute must and are prepared with great attention to detail. 4. **Value for money:** Prices are reasonable and reflect the high quality of the food and drinks on offer. You definitely get good value for money. 5. **Cleanliness and hygiene:** The cafe is very clean and well maintained, which is especially important these days. Hygiene standards are obviously taken seriously, which provides an additional feeling of security. **Conclusion:** Lübben Strand Café is a wonderful place to take a break, enjoy delicious food and relax in a picturesque setting. The combination of excellent service, delicious food and a lovely ambience makes it one of my new favorite places. Highly recommended for a visit!

Very tasty as always. Service very nice and accommodating. Until next time 😃 unfortunately I have to withdraw the whole thing!!!!! Two years later........ Now ready for cabbage rolls etc. It's a shame for such a place. What is so difficult about cooking fresh? I'm a chef myself and I'm disappointed that this chef is just giving up on himself. When it came to zander, the second piece was simply rationed away as usual and at the same price. The boss should be ashamed of himself for taking such a line. The service registers the complaint without apology but that's it. You'll definitely never see us again.

Just a little dessert before returning home from visiting the Christmas markets, but it was worth it. Everything excellent. We will definitely be back... And in the summer they returned. The service is perfect, the view, the weather, the food. I'd say there's also room for that 6 star.

Great location right on the Spree. Unfortunately, coffee was a disaster. Double espresso from a fully automatic machine (highway level) for 4.50 euros. A pity!

We only had one drink because the grounds are so beautiful. Directly opposite the lock and the boat rental, you can relax outside and watch the hustle and bustle in the Spreewald on a leafy terrace. The superior service does not appeal to all tourists, for example there is no free choice of seating and you are assigned to a table. But our wish to be able to sit directly by the water was also realized. All waiters have a uniform look and are friendly and quick. The menu is very varied with fair prices (Wiener Schnitzel €21.50, large Bavarian draft beer €5.50). Addendum: Today we had dinner at the beach cafe. It was wonderful! Good portions, wonderfully prepared and clever cuisine. Price performance fits perfectly. The service was again 1a.

Very nicely located on the water. The employees are friendly and competent. Highly recommended. Gladly again.

Marinated buffalo mozzarella with rocket, ham and figs very tasty. The service was really attentive and friendly. We even wanted to refrigerate the cake we had started because we had to extend the parking ticket. Top!

Excellent lunch selection and quality. Nothing decidedly gourmet, it's good classic food craftsmanship in really nice surroundings.

Nice location, good ambience, very nice staff

The food is very good, unfortunately the service is bad. The women were all unfriendly and rude, and almost all of the guests were ignored for 15 minutes. Only one waiter was extremely nice and even brought our dog a bowl of water without being asked!

Cheap mozarelle and tasteless schnitzel

Wir waren von Anfang an begeistert. Das Essen war hervorragend und hat uns allen sehr gut geschmeckt. Auch der Service war ausgezeichnet. Das Personal war immer freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wir haben uns rundum wohl und willkommen gefühlt. Die Qualität der Speisen und Getränke war wirklich super. Wir waren beeindruckt von der Vielfalt und dem Geschmack der Gerichte. Alles war frisch zubereitet und von hoher Qualität. Wir freuen uns schon jetzt auf unseren nächsten Besuch in Ihrem Strandcafé - Restaurant und werden es auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen.

I would give more stars if Google allowed, because this service truly deserves 10 stars! We were a group of 7 caught in the rain without a reservation, but they still managed to prepare seats for all of us. The service was top-notch!

We were outside , start to rain and thw staff jus offer to be inside , they make are for us because we were in shorts , but hey did care , they just gave us the space to be confortable !! Excelent service !!

Just great here. Good food and very friendly staff here :-) and great location with a water view.

Very nice and quick service. The food was very tasty, we would love to come back!

A splendid place to eat and relax! Pleasant and quick service, wonderful views, tasty dishes. They have a children's menu

Super idyllic location right at the barge ferry port. Nice view from beer garden furniture under shady trees. Attentive and friendly service.

It was delicious! Good service, prices are high, but all around a great location.

Today, Saturday June 8th, 2024, we went to the “Strandcafe” for lunch and were very disappointed. The schnitzel was made of sticky meat, originally frozen and then fried on the plate. I was able to mash the "meat" with a fork. The potato salad tasted like stale old potatoes. We had to shell out around 40 euros for 2 people. Petsonal was informed about the condition of the food. There was a shrug in response. Thank you, never again!!!

Well in any case, with such delicious food and cool service, you can only give it the green light 🤘

All dishes were good! Special highlight was Vital bread. It was absolutely delicious! Nice tofu, different sauces, crispy bread.. definitely recommended! Service was incredibly friendly Coffee wasn’t good at the end

The ambience is very nice, you look directly at the small urban harbor. The service is friendly, but when it's busy you have to wait a long time for someone to come. I can't say much about the food, but the ice cream sundae was good.

A really great restaurant with beautiful views and good food. There is something for everyone. The waiters are very attentive, friendly and professional.

The positive: nice place by the water with friendly service. The food: overcooked cabbage rolls with tasteless hard boiled potatoes. The horseradish schnitzel was dry, the potato salad with it was okay. Spending €50 on this quality of dinner is just annoying.

Great staff and very nice facility

I recently visited this restaurant and was overall pleased with the ambience and friendly staff. However, when I ordered I was promised a lemon for my cola, which unfortunately was forgotten. For me, this is a small but important detail that makes the difference. Because of this Unfortunately I can only give it 2 stars, although the rest of the visit was pleasant. A small improvement in attention would significantly improve the overall impression.

Unfortunately a disappointment. Outside, the restaurant really promises a lot as everything is chic and newly done. Our food was rather expensive in terms of value for money and average. The asparagus was poorly peeled, there was far too little sauce and after asking for more, we had to pay an extra charge (an absolute no go in this category). Service staff were always attentive and a good mix of really good people with restaurant experience and less trained staff. All in all, however, I would rather go to a quaint restaurant than eat below average "would-be fine dining" here.

Best restaurant in Lübben! We have been coming here for years and the quality is consistently good, regional food of excellent quality and the best ambience right at the city harbor. Highly recommended 👍

Very relaxed breakfast with a rich and very good buffet. Always happy.

Very nice restaurant with attentive service. Good kitchen. Great view of the canal.

Despite the holiday and the large crowds, the dishes were as you would expect. The asparagus was juicy and the hollandaise sauce was homemade. Special requests were accommodated without complaint. A very good concept in a great location right on the water. We can highly recommend it. Payment is also possible separately for individual guests with credit card.

Great food, very pleasant service. I recommend it 100%.

Right on the water. Super tasty and interesting selection on the menu.

A very tasty meal, the price-performance ratio is good and the service is friendly and accommodating. Gladly again! A very licked food, the price - performance ratio is coherent and the service is friendly and accommodating. Gladly again!

Simple, delicious! Yummy! Yummy! We were able to enjoy a very good 3-course menu and the always friendly staff were just great! Thank you ! We would love to come back 🤗

Very nice restaurant with nice staff and very tasty food. The ice cream is very tasty, as is the cucumber plate with bread and lard. Update April 21, 2024 Spring brunch, simply put, very tasty, whether it's a starter, main course or dessert. We recommend.

Really good food, great service. Just a tiny criticism - period. The cold cucumber soup (incredibly delicious) was served in a bowl that gave you goosebumps when you spooned it. It was so rough🙈

Located on a small island right on the water in an idyllic setting. The service was very good. The ladies were very friendly and always asked if everything was okay. The food seems expensive at first glance but is definitely worth the price. If you would like to enjoy more unusual but traditional cuisine in a beautiful atmosphere, this is the right place for you.

Very nice ambience and great, fine breakfast buffet.

It was so nice to eat and drink by the water, the service was super attentive, quick and super friendly! The food was appetizingly prepared and tasted good. We were just passing through but would stay here longer.

Very attractively furnished restaurant with a manageable but high quality selection of dishes. The saddle of veal on black garlic mashed potatoes with broccolini was excellent and the service staff was also very friendly and always available to provide recommendations and expertise. Even uneaten items could be taken with you as a doggy bag. Clear recommendation and definitely worth another visit. Gladly again

A very nice restaurant, super friendly staff. The food was DELICIOUS 👍🏻😊And “the place 🚾” also has to be mentioned here, because I have rarely experienced such a clean and fragrant toilet. Really Totally recommended 👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻

Wir hatten einen Tisch für 5 Personen reserviert. Die gesamte Location macht einen sehr guten Eindruck und wir saßen draußen auf der Terrasse. Das Essen war ausnahmslos schön angerichtet. Möhrensuppe, Entenschenkel, Lammkoteletts, Zanderfilet und Hirschbraten wurden ausnahmslos nicht aufgegessen. Die Ente war mindestens vom Vortag und nicht knusprig , der Hirschbraten schmeckte streng und war sehr trocken, die Möhrensuppe war wässrig und geschmacklos. Insgesamt war alles attraktiv angerichtet aber es war nicht wirklich feine Küche. Deutlich mehr Schein als Sein. Der Service lediglich pflichtbewusst freundlich.

The breakfast buffet, which is provided for hotel guests, can also be enjoyed by non-guests for a fair price. Great variety, great service and great ambience.

Despite the nice climate, it's not worth it at all

We went on a short hiking trip to Lübben and stopped at the beach café for lunch. The food was really delicious - we chose the horseradish schnitzel. The rest of the card sounded really good too. We recommend!

The cake is terribly sweet and the prices are quite high. Over €5 for a latte is just too much

Always a pleasure. Kitchen and service are top.

As always, it was a real treat!

I think I can say with a lot of experience that you can go here without any restrictions, regardless of age group. It was a perfect landing in all respects and a wonderful experience... said everyone involved.

Main courses were terrible. Lamb cutlets under cooked with very soft mushroom ravioli where the flavors were washed out with super sweet fig sauce that has been sugared. Steak was undercooked and again mash potato and sauce seemed to have been sugared. Place is nice and in summer will be lovely. But I think the main course chef lost his taste in Covid or smokes too much.

Our lunch here was very disappointing. The menu promised something better and the reviews led us to believe it would be a delicious lunch spot. However, I don't know what the chef did with the food because everything tasted too sweet. I had the veal steak and my husband had the lamb chops. Both were incredibly disappointing. In both cases the meat was undercooked. The steak still had strong bands of hard fat, indicating that the meat had not been seared properly to begin with. The mashed potatoes were black potatoes, not a problem, but way too sweet. The sauces for both were, we think, sugared, so the overwhelming flavor was like dessert. For the price we paid, this was actually a terrible meal. We chose the honey cheesecake, which strangely, despite the name, was less sweet than the sauce and potatoes in the first courses! Spectacular, bad, cooking. Admittedly the location is nice and I'm sure in the summer it's a nice place to stop if you're not trying to have a full meal. Avoid it until they get the food sorted.

Short stop to drink coffee. Very tasty cake and nice atmosphere.

We had a large group of people there for dinner at Christmas and were so thrilled. Rich portions and reasonable price. The service was top notch and everything was perfect. Because of the enthusiasm, I was tempted back 3 weeks later with a larger round and I was extremely disappointed with the portion size. There is almost only half of it left on the plate for the same price. I also mentioned it on site. The reason was the VAT increase. That can not be. Then the price should be adjusted slightly, but not the portion size. This is how you scare away the guests. A real shame. I hope this will be adjusted again.

A very cozy restaurant right in the heart of Lübben. We recommend.

Couldn't even get a sit to check the menu

We had a very nice 60th birthday celebration. Wonderful space and very good food and drinks. Attentive service. Highly recommended!

We recently had dinner at the beach cafe. The ambience was quite nice, although I felt there was a bit of coziness missing in the rooms. Food was very tasty. Our table was a bit dark, and there was no possibility of making it a little brighter after briefly asking the waitress. All in all quite nice.

Ein wunderschönes Strandcafè. Mit leckeren Speisen für jeden Geschmack. Es lädt zum Verweilen gerade zu ein. Ein herzliches Dankeschön an das sehr freundliche Serviceteam! Für unser erstes Date war es die perfekte Wahl.

Das Personal war sehr freundlich. Auch das Essen war super.

Wir wurden zügig und freundlich bedient. Die Kohlroulade mit Kartoffeln war ok. Ich hätte mir eine dickere Soße gewünscht. War Geschmacklich aber ok. Einziges Manko waren die vielen Wespen, dafür kann aber das Restaurant nichts.

Sehr schönes Ambiente. Tisch sehr ansprechend eingedeckt.

Sehr schön und gemütlich jedoch muss ich hier an dieser Stelle sagen, wenn der Wels vom Fenchel erschlagen wird (sehr wenig Wels und viiiiel Fenchelknolle) und dann noch auf nem "Klecks" Kartoffelpüree landet ist es für diesen Preis sehr überzogen. Es war lecker (bis auf die halbe Fechnchelknolle) keine Frage aber für dieses Ambiente und die gemütliche Atmosphäre solltet ihr auf diesen Schnickschnack wirklich verzichten und echte, ehrliche Küche anbieten. Sehr schön und freundlich. Nach langer Zeit mal wieder besucht, Fazit: die Küche hat sehr nachgelassen, schade .... Wenn man doch weiß das ihr es besser könnt!

In diesem Restaurant herrscht eine großartige Atmosphäre, und die Kellnerinnen sind äußerst freundlich. Direkt am Wasser gelegen, schmeckt das Essen hervorragend. Insgesamt bin ich sehr zufrieden und komme gerne wieder. deshalb auch 5 Sterne

Eine angenehme Atmosphäre draußen auf der Terrasse, der Service war freundlich, das Essen war sehr lecker.

Super Strandcafe. Sehr gerne wieder.

Bit expensive but lovely little spot and friendly staff

Очень красивое и место с живописными видами и ютными креслами. В меню есть даже веганские позиции. Приветливый персонал.

Freundliche Bedienung. Passt alles.
