Strandrestaurant Riffkieker in Norderney

This restaurant is also simply great!!!

Nice restaurant right on the beach/promenade. The waitresses are friendly and the food is very tasty. The prices are O.K. I can highly recommend it.

Very tasty bowl, unfortunately very full, but that speaks for the store...

You sit very protected, with heaters by the sea. Delicious food and drinks. Very friendly staff

Very friendly and above all attentive staff, the food (we had the fish plate) came quickly and was of really good quality. The price is certainly appropriate. We'd love to come back!

Always a nice place to spend a few nice hours with your friends.

I think the restaurant is great, the location is wonderful, but that's the only thing for me.

The service was a complete disaster. We wanted to have breakfast with 7 people on site and pushed two tables together that were next to each other. The waitress immediately insulted us and reacted in a completely unfriendly manner. We and the next table then got up and we no longer had breakfast there.

Very friendly and helpful staff who are very attentive and considerate. The food is very good and, like the drinks, it didn't take long to arrive. The location is great. We'd love to come back.

Good quality of food, more down-to-earth than creative. Very attentive and quick service

Unfortunately, senior portions are at the level of a chip shop. Completely overpriced. Fried potatoes instead of fries as a side dish for an additional charge of 4 euros...

Actually everything was great, except for the outrageous 4 euro surcharge when ordering from boiled potatoes to fried potatoes, although I don't think a restaurant like this needs it...

Wieder mal hier wegen der guten Lage. Haben uns einen Aperol Spritz bestellt. Dieser war für 9 Euro leider nur 1/4 voll. Ansonsten war der Service so lala. War allerdings auch viel los.

The food always looks delicious. But I haven't eaten anything there yet. When it comes to service staff, it always depends on what mood they are in. But all in all always very attentive

The view of the sea is great, everything else is mediocre. Price-performance ratio is not right. It's okay to drink coffee, but we won't be able to eat anymore.

Wir kommen seit fast 20 Jahren nach Norderney und besuchen den Riffkieker ebenso lange. In erster Linie wegen der traumhaften Lage. Das Essen ist gut, mehr nicht. Aber fast jedes Mal haben wir uns über den Service geärgert, der in erster Linie sehr unfreundlich und teilnahmslos ist. Wir haben uns geschworen, dass wir nicht wiederkommen werden. Wir werden anstatt dessen das Surfcafe nebenan besuchen. Hier ist das Personal immer äußerst freundlich und zuvorkommend.

The ambience on the beach is always great! The food was tasty and looked good. The service is not working at all! Hold the door open, no thanks will come! If you want to order something, you have to get the right service person. Unfortunately, one doesn't pass anything on to the other! I ask and people roll their eyes! Yes, it's the end of the season but a smile, a twitch, etc. would still be possible!

Good restaurant with good home-style, regional cuisine. I had the fish platter, which tasted good. This was on a separate board and not on the menu. It would be helpful here if the prices were also shown on the boards. However, when I asked, the waitress was able to help me immediately.

The location right on the beach is ok, the price level is completely exorbitant as is typical for Norderney, but ok, you know that. The food is absolutely wrong, it's all just frozen stuff. The “Homemade Schnitzel Wiener Style” was completely frozen, with a mountain of fries, 3 lettuce leaves... 20 euros. Preparation time just under 10 minutes. Homemade because it was made in the house? You can get it cheaper in every company canteen or chip shop, but above all, it's better. Profit maximization in every respect is probably on the agenda here. Be a guest here again? Never!

Fantastically located right by the sea, the food is great. Unfortunately the service is a disaster. Completely overwhelmed staff who acted very rudely and unfriendly - so rude that we considered getting up and leaving. A waitress shouted at me - there's no other way to call it - when I asked for ketchup and mayo for fries: "I'll bring it straight away, I just said!", another employee insisted on a second time for the food order to come to the table, it was not possible to order drinks and food together. He was also annoyed and mumbled so quietly that you had to ask what had been said. A real catastrophe, we haven't experienced anything like it for a long time. Unfortunately, no recommendation, there are enough alternatives with friendly service on the island.

Wir kommen regelmäßig zum Essen. Jeder findet auf der abwechslungsreichen Karte etwas nach seinem Geschmack. Es gibt immer wieder Aktionen wie Muscheln oder Grünkohl. Man sollte reservieren, es ist in der Saison eigentlich immer voll. Im Sommer kann man ohne Reservierung draußen ein Plätzchen suchen. Was ich besonders liebe, der super leckere Eierkuchen! Schafft man allerdings kaum als Nachtisch (nur so als Tipp)

Everything was really nice. The food came quickly, the staff was nice and attentive and it simply tasted very good.

Very incompetent. You go to Norderney and reserve a table a week in advance and when you come there is no table available. No apology and no understanding, even though the call was traceable on site. Just a shame.

Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be much emphasis here on making a reservation by telephone. Employees were not interested in the “misunderstanding”(?) and rejected us without concern, even though our number was on the display. We would have expected more accommodation here, even if there are certainly no worries there in terms of sales. Frisian greetings!

Nice restaurant for dinner. The winter garden in particular offers a great view. Cellars sometimes a bit stressed. Fish is very tasty. I would recommend making a reservation.

Molded schnitzel, ketchup and mayo in portion packaging, salad decorations on the plates without any dressing, was something you couldn't expect in this local ambience. The price is not appropriate for what is offered.

Great beach bar with delicious food, friendly service and a feel-good guarantee. We're always happy to be there every year😍😋

Delicious food, nice service. We felt comfortable!

The ambience and the view of the beach and the North Sea are really great. Unfortunately I can't say anything good about the food - the schnitzel is inexpensive, but still too expensive for a convenience product that was unfortunately completely tasteless. The side salad for 8 euros is really a side dish size - the price-performance ratio doesn't match. The employees are professional, but not very approachable. You don't really feel welcome. Conclusion - drinks yes, because of the really beautiful place - food rather no.

Restaurant with sea views. Very good menu. No matter what time of day there is always a good selection. The location can't be beat. Always friendly staff.

A great restaurant with a great view. Well organized and nice staff. The food is also very tasty and decoratively prepared. We went there twice in our one week of vacation. An absolute recommendation for us

Relaxed location in a beautiful location

Very nice location, nice staff. However, it's overly expensive and the portions are definitely too small for the price.

It doesn't work at all. Arrived, wanted a drink and something to eat. 1. Service, drinks: a bionade and a large ney beer. She rejected the request for the card “because there is going to be a thunderstorm.” Hey? Okay, we sat outside but it's our problem if I sit in the rain with the schnitzel. We repeated our request for the card - nothing. Drinks arrive, a bionade and 2 small beers. After I pointed out to the waitress that it should be a large one, but that I also take two small ones, he insisted on bringing me a large one. OK. Here I repeated the request for the card. He would need the beer, without a menu. And asked again for a card - completely ignored. Never again! We went 5m further to the surf café and received first-class service. It hasn't rained so far, but the sun is shining nicely

We have been coming to Norderney for years. The Riffkieker has now become our regular restaurant. The food is fantastic and the portions are also large, so you fill up well. The inviting view of the sea also makes you feel really comfortable there. Even when the restaurant is full, the waiters keep a good overview. You don't have to wait long for your food here.

Unfriendly is still a nice way to put it. The staff is annoyed and shouts at the guests.

Schade, eigentlich sehr schönes Restaurant, aber das Personal ist eine Katastrophe. Essen war mal wieder lecker. Bin mehrmals im Jahr auf Norderney. Das Personal im Riffkieker ist unfassbar launisch und genervt. Nebenan im Surfcafe ist das komplette Gegenteil der Fall.

Great location on the beach, attentive service even though it was very busy, no waiting times.

Just drank something... rude... Aperol really bad... aperol just walked past. Little or no Prosecco in it. It's almost a shame to say Spritz. That was nothing.

Beach restaurant with a view of the sea, super nice and fast service. Within again gladly.!!!

Great location right on the beach. Friendly staff and good prices. It's worth looking at the setting sun here. And the breakfast offer is also recommended!

A beautiful location on Norderney, the food and service were really good.

The Riffkieker beach restaurant on Norderney is a real gem if you want to enjoy a meal with a view of the sea. The location is simply unbeatable – while you enjoy your meal, you can watch the waves and feel the fresh sea breeze. The food was excellent, especially the schnitzel with mushroom cream sauce that I had. The sauce was rich and perfectly seasoned, the meat was tender and well fried. It was an all-round successful dish that I can recommend to everyone. Added to this is the friendly service: the service was not only attentive, but also very personable, which made the entire stay even more pleasant. All in all a great place to combine good food with a breathtaking view. Absolutely recommended!

The breakfast is not worth its price. Here you can get baked rolls from the supermarket and cheese and ham also taste more like the cheaper version. Several things were forgotten because putting together breakfast didn't work well. Ambiance is ok, lacks coziness.

Very good food, friendly staff in a cozy atmosphere. Gladly again

The ambience and the view of the sea are great. The food is delicious, the portions are sufficient and the service is ok.

Labskaus war geschmacklich echt nicht gut, von der Konsistenz mal ganz zu schweigen. Matjesfilet war zäh und sehr sauer. Schnitzel war ganz ok, aber auch nicht erwähnenswert. Das einzig gute war die Krabbenrahmsuppe. Sehr lecker und die Krabben wirklich frisch. Bedienung war teilnahmslos und hat einen gelangweilt Eindruck gemacht.

Restaurant to linger with a drink after swimming in the sea or for dinner.

Immer wieder lecker Alles was an Essen aus der Küche kommt ist top Qualität ist ein Hammer Personal immer freundlich und steht hinter dem Riffkieker das merkt man am Umgsng untereinander und mit dem Gast Und dazu diese Aussicht

Great restaurant right on the North Sea. Unfortunately, most of the waiters there are very disinterested in the customer. (To put it kindly) Too bad.

Unfriendly and unmotivated service. Baked fish with fries for €17 is a disgrace. Replacing fries with baked potatoes would have cost an extra €4. "Pizza" with a tortilla base is inedible because it is completely overloaded with sauce and therefore gets soggy very quickly. At the end, service INDEPENDENTLY gave themselves a tip of about 10% without being asked or saying anything. Despite the nice location, I unfortunately cannot recommend this restaurant.

Best fish platter. Service friendly and uncomplicated. Service quick. Quite delicious!

Zum ersten Mal auf Norderney reservierte ich für den ersten Abend das in wenigen Gehminuten von unserer Ferienwohnung gelegene Restaurant Riffkieker. Freundlicher Empfang, schöner Platz im Wintergarten. Sehr gute, reichhaltige Karte. Die Kutterscholle (in einer anderen Bewertung als wässrig kritisiert), war kross & lecker und schmeckte inklusive Beilagen hervorragend. Auch der Matjes Hausfrauenart in einer cremigen Soße serviert konnte begeistern. Krabbensuppe war ein bisschen dick geraten von der Konsistenz, aber geschmacklich einwandfrei. Insgesamt ein gemütlicher Start in den Urlaub zu recht zivilen Preisen.

Unfortunately I can't say anything positive about the food in this restaurant. The ingredients of the fish soup consisted mainly from seafood with vegetables and lots of baby calamari...I wasn't aware of that in a fish soup. It didn't taste like fish soup at all... When I asked the waiter, I was loudly told that I had to pay for it, he couldn't do anything about it... When I was paying, I was loudly pointed out again, so that the entire restaurant was attentive It became clear that I should eat tomato soup next time. I've never been treated so badly, rudely and disrespected...I wasn't even asked if I wanted anything else... Completely unprofessional service A solution should be found for every problem...

Pizorilla Promodoro 11.00 EUR taste insufficient, 8.00 EUR salad comes in an 8 cm bowl - rip off, cheeky fried potatoes not seasoned, bacon burnt - customer satisfaction??? Not like that!!!

The best service, super nice, great food

Top top top in all directions, friendly staff no matter what time 💪🏻 keep it up❤️ And view of the beach😍

Delicious food. Big portion. Right on the beach.

Great view. Staff very nice. Food delicious (Pizzorilla is highly recommended). Prices...well...Norderney, island, sea view...it's a bit more expensive, but after all you're on vacation.

Great restaurant with two areas: on the beach with a small but very good menu and the restaurant on the other side of the promenade with a large menu. We enjoyed the baked potatoes with and without Norderney ham, great ham, delicious sour cream and a small side salad, all very, very tasty. The potato pancakes, on the other hand, were mass-produced and they can be made much better. The selection of places including beach chairs is great, very nice, friendly and helpful service, toilets are great, dogs are welcome. I would love to enjoy the sea view there again.

You have the best fish soup on the island! It's nice that it's available again, BUT, the price doesn't match your new dishes. The portion used to be available as a cup (large cereal bowl) or terriene (soup bowl), but today it is the size of a coffee cup or soup plate and costs significantly more. Very annoying. Very unfortunate 🤨

Great location on Norderney beach. Service was very slow. One had the impression that the staff had no interest. Very overpriced. 1 wheat non-alcoholic and 1 ginger ale €9.40.

Good food, nice service and incredibly good decor

We felt completely comfortable. Great location, wonderful view of the North Sea. What more do you want? 😀

Die Speisekarte beinhaltet viele Sachen, auch Kleinigkeiten. Die Preise sind um Gegensatz zu vielen anderen Lokalen 2024 fast moderat geblieben. Eine Beachbar, wie sie sein soll, schön Essen oder nur Drinks, ob morgens, mittags oder in die Nacht rein. Bedienung nett und höflich. Das fehlt anderen 😜

Lecker angerichtet, tolle Atmosphäre, sehr nette freundliche Bedienung. Wir haben unsere „Auszeit“ voll und ganz genossen!

The food tastes great. Price performance is okay! Service is friendly. Also very friendly towards children. We would like to come back. Table reservation recommended.

Great location, friendly service, sufficient selection of food and drinks. We were very satisfied!

It all started with being led to a table, only to be seated at a smaller table at the end because you seemed to be hoping for more sales at others! Then we had to wait 1 hour for our food and only after clearly asking why it was taking so long did we get our food after 10 minutes! Since the waitress seemed to have felt offended by my question at the end, Then I realized that I was mispronouncing espresso and putting the cutlery wrong on my empty plate! All in all, very good food and a nice atmosphere, but the service staff seem disorganized and quickly irritable!

Baked fish with fries + tartar sauce and baked potato with Norderney ham. Both dishes were very good. Beer tastes good too! We were very satisfied and will come back next time!

It was very tasty and everyone was very friendly.

Delicious breakfast, good service, reasonable prices.

If the weather was bad, it was a good stopover there. Food and drinks great. Service nice and friendly. Would love to come back.

We were extremely happy! The waitress was able to answer our questions about gluten-free options, and the food & drinks came very quickly. We were full and excited about the food. The jackfruit burger was absolutely delicious!! The fried fish too. Unfortunately the mushrooms were a bit too salty for me. I would take the baguette and aioli again and again, very juicy and the aioli was extremely good.

Pizza base a bit very thin, otherwise good service and nice view, the fish roll was very tasty

Good selection of food Friendly service Simply good 😊

Great view, delicious food, delicious beer.

Really nice location. The service is also quite good - but they save a lot on food. Tomato soup was inedible - I had it returned, but you still have to pay for it - really rude. As compensation they wanted to lure them with alcohol... Main courses were ok. Everything reminds me of a snack bar where they season with glutamate. But they didn't skimp on the prices.

Delicious fried fish eaten, friendly service

Ideal for a nightcap with a sunset.

Great restaurant with a large outdoor terrace for any time of day, especially at sunset you can always find a cozy place to watch, chat and drink!

Service good and without long waiting times Desert almost catastrophic Nice view of the sea

Great, plentiful breakfast, friendly, attentive staff

DELICIOUS eaten, but portions could be larger.

Were only there to drink, great location with a view of the sea, disabled toilet, ramp

Super nice, attentive service, uncomplicated with special requests, food very tasty, great view of the sea. A perfect evening for us! Thank you very much!

Except for a very unfriendly waiter, the staff was very nice, great location, nice atmosphere.

Big selection, everything was great! I thought the Pizzarilla Tonno was great. Lots of tuna and cheese with a wafer-thin tortilla base!

We spent 6 days on Norderney and ate here three times. Price/performance ratio absolutely fine, food more than tasty, large portion, service super attentive. We'd love to come back on our next Norderney vacation.

Very fast service, friendly. It's all ok. For a dish (scrambled eggs, shrimps, fried potatoes) with salad, a lettuce leaf with half a mini tomato is a bit meager (just under 30 euros!). The potatoes should have been crispy. The Riesling Kabinett is very good. I would come again, but more than four stars would be dishonest.

Good service and a great ambience

Absolutely recommended! Had reserved the interior for a birthday party. The food/buffet was really tasty - the service was super nice and very attentive. Happy to come back!!!

The breakfast was good and the view was very nice. Unfortunately, the dinner was not that satisfying and the portions were also small. I've never had such bad fish soup. The plaice was tasty but not enough to fill you up.

We were invited to a birthday party there and it was a complete success. The food was great (buffet: fish, meat, gratin, salad and much more). The service was very friendly, competent and prompt. The great view was also added! Simply successful❣️

The restaurant offers a sea view. The seating is very tight, at least inside. The service does its best, is usually present but very friendly. Unfortunately, there are no brilliant achievements coming from the kitchen. Lots of ready-made products that have been improved a little, potatoes overcooked, fried potatoes mushy, the fish soup can be eaten much better in nearby restaurants. The prices are actually too high for the small portion.

Service and ambience are great. Our food was okay and tasty. The fee of €4 when changing the order from potatoes to fried potatoes is a complete disgrace. Unfortunately only 3 stars for this rip-off

It was completely full when we were there. Staff appropriately at the stop but still friendly. We then got a seat in the farthest corner outside. The food, kibbeling and graved salmon with potato pancakes felt and probably actually frozen. So everything is more so mediocre, especially given the prices that are then charged for it.

Very nice restaurant right by the sea. The North Sea crab roll is super delicious.

Heavy crowds of visitors. Seats outside are very popular. Staff very friendly, food looks appetizing.

Delicious beer Noderneyer, delicious food at fair prices, great view of the North Sea
