Werft1919 in Kressbronn am Bodensee

A truly special place right on Lake Constance! The "Werft 1919" combines industrial charm with modern gastronomy. You immediately notice that ships were once housed here. Today, you can not only enjoy excellent food here, but also simply grab a quick bite: a Yamo ice cream, a drink, coffee, or small snacks like chips. The best part is the location: you can take your drink with you, sit right by the lake, and enjoy the unique view. It's perfect for a relaxing afternoon with friends, family, or just the two of you. The atmosphere is relaxed, the staff friendly, and the mix of historic ambiance and lake view makes the visit something special. An absolute must-do when traveling around Lake Constance!

One of our favorite restaurants when we're nearby! Always great, regional, fresh ingredients that blend exceptionally well together.

Highly recommended, very nice ambience

Super friendly, spontaneous welcome and a fine selection of slow/soul food!

Price/performance ratio is absolutely expandable

A visit to this wonderful restaurant in one of the most beautiful spots in southern Germany is a vacation for body and soul. The beautifully presented dishes are a delight for the eyes, the tongue, the heart, and the stomach. My personal highlight this summer is the burrata with the amazing balsamic sorbet. Wow!!!!!

Such a fantastic location! We had an event in the Werftsaal. Everything was just right. The view of Lake Constance, the unique decor, the service. Everything was perfect! Thank you for this.

Long waits for both drinks and food—the bartender was definitely not stressed. The beef was completely gristly and full of tendons—unacceptable at these prices. Service was attentive.

A truly beautiful venue for events, with a fantastic view of the lake. It's a great place to relax in a wonderful atmosphere. The service is excellent, they do a fantastic job. The food is always delicious. It's simply wonderful there.

Very nice, perfect service, good food, unfortunately the dessert was not quite to our taste (iced Black Forest cake)

Beautiful place, interesting decor, good quality food, friendly service, good value for money

Cool location in a former shipyard, nestled between old ship diesel engines and workbenches. We were there for a Sunday afternoon concert...unfortunately, there was only one person at the kiosk, and we had to wait 30 minutes for the delicious Härle beer...so you just drink one... ;-)

Unfortunately, the food was really just average, but the price was not. The salad bowl is a small mixed salad – for just under €20. The pasta with shrimp was completely unseasoned, and the smashed sandwich was, unfortunately, nothing special for the money. Very friendly staff and a great location.

A magical place, an experience you'll never forget... The ambiance is so beautiful, the view priceless, and the atmosphere indescribable. Everyone was super nice and accommodating! Once again, just the two of us will be staying away :/

The two owners of Werft1919, Julius and Johannes, are incredibly helpful. The atmosphere is fantastic, and the evening candlelight concert with Tom Mayer was fantastic. We'd be happy to come back anytime.

Food was good, but not exceptional.

Barbara and I had the pleasure of attending a private birthday party at the "Werft1919" location. We highly recommend this restaurant. Although the restaurant is large, it impresses with excellent food, very friendly staff, and a truly special ambiance thanks to its stunning location on Lake Constance. We enjoyed it and can happily recommend "Werft1919."

A wonderful place for relaxing hours by the lake. A great idea: in front of the restaurant, there are ample public seating areas on a staircase leading down to the lake (also with seating), where you can relax with a drink from the restaurant's beach bar (which is specifically designed for this purpose). The restaurant itself is spacious and airy. The quality of the food is exceptionally good and beyond the ordinary, even for vegetarians and vegans. Shipyard boys, you managed to surprise me! The whole thing comes at a price, but for us, the value for money was absolutely right. Bring your time; the hosts—the word fits perfectly here—are also relaxed. If you just want to quickly fill a hole in your stomach or are just passing through, this isn't the place for you. We'll definitely be back! Thanks :-)

Top service, very nice family-run restaurant, varied menu

Very nice location, delicious food and friendly staff

It was absolutely beautiful. We were there for a wedding. What was really unfortunate was that the drinks were constantly being cleared away, even though there were still things on the table. Once, we were changing our son's diaper, and my husband put the beer behind him on the table. When he turned around five minutes later, it was gone. The food was absolutely delicious.

Excellent event location with a great Werft1919 team. No problem or request was too big, everything done with a smile. Danke euch!

Everything is just right here! Super friendly service, great food with locally sourced ingredients, a fantastic location with a great atmosphere. It's worth the price! We'll be back!

Cool ambience, conjured up from an old shipyard.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen Nooria Mawla Telefonnummer 01713461504

Werft1919 impresses across the board. The location directly on the water is truly ideal for a relaxing evening or a good meal in a pleasant atmosphere. You sit quietly, enjoy a beautiful view, and immediately feel at home. The food was high quality and tasted impeccable. The menu is well-thought-out, not overly elaborate, and offers something for everyone. The dishes were freshly prepared and presented in an attractive manner. The service was also very attentive, friendly, and well-organized; there were no long waits and excellent communication. A clear recommendation for anyone who appreciates good food in a special location. We will definitely be back.

original gastronomy on Lake Constance

Wonderful and super friendly owners and lovely, accommodating staff. Anyone planning a wedding or other celebration should definitely consider the shipyard. It's truly fantastic there; everything is just perfect: the ambiance, the staff, the owners. I was at my friend's wedding, and everyone was absolutely thrilled.

Small menu, delicious dishes, there is love and skill behind them. Beautiful atmosphere, super friendly staff

Great location right on the waterfront. We attended Tom Mayer's candlelight concert. And it was fantastic! Unfortunately, the rosé wine wasn't really to our taste. Otherwise, everything was highly recommended!

We celebrated our wedding at the shipyard in June, and the day was absolutely perfect! The location itself provides the perfect setting, with the shipyard hall for the ceremony and the hall for dinner and the party, but the service around it completes the package. Julius and Hannah were enthusiastic about the planning and on the day itself, supporting us with everything. The two of them did a fantastic job and were available at any time for questions or organizational matters. Our highlight was definitely being driven to the shipyard in Julius's boat and being greeted by all of our guests there. And thanks to the shipyard team, the entire process ran smoothly! Huge praise also goes to the shipyard's kitchen, who conjured up by far the best wedding dinner for us. Once again, a huge thank you to the entire shipyard team.

A small but distinctive menu. Friendly, personal service. Wonderful quality.

Very nice location. The staff was friendly, and the service was good. It was nice that dogs are allowed, so we could eat in a relaxed atmosphere without our furry friend having to wait outside.

Es war ein ganz besonderes Erlebnis in diesem Ambiente einer uralten Werft zu speisen. Wunderschön architektonisch gestaltet, liebevoll zugewandt die Bedienung(Marwin), hervorragende Qualität der servierten kulinarischen Köstlichkeiten, auch die hübschen Teller und das golden glänzende Messingschüsselchen für das Dessert mit Birnentiramis u. Ob Argusrind, ob zarte Lachsforelle, alles war gelungen und ansprechend. Wir können es nur weiter empfehlen. Ich war begeistert und sagte das auch den emsigen jungen Köchen denen man sogar zusehn kann ... Alles Gute Gerdi Spengler beim 77. mit 3 Kindern u. Enkel.

We had the grilled Aubrac beef for two people. It was perfectly grilled (English) and also well and robustly seasoned. The vegetables were also excellent: potatoes, peppers, green asparagus, eggplant, and zucchini. Seasoned boldly, but not overly so. The service was also very attentive, but not intrusive. All the food and drinks were of very good quality. The ambiance is also very special. All of this comes at a price; you have to know if it's worth it. We think it's worth a visit.

Small meals and drinks at the kiosk for your deckchair by the water and large meals in the restaurant.

The food tastes good. However, the quantities are a disaster. So it's better to bring a sandwich. The waiter reacted rudely to a comment about portion sizes.

A cozy restaurant with a great ambience and delicious dishes! We visited Werft1919 in Kressbronn and were completely thrilled. As soon as you enter the restaurant, you notice the stylish, modern design, which is warm and inviting at the same time. The large window front provides plenty of light and a pleasant atmosphere. The menu offers a great selection of dishes combining both traditional and modern elements. We tried the burger and the fish dish - both were excellent. We were particularly impressed by the fresh preparation and the quality of the ingredients. Everything tasted delicious and was seasoned perfectly. The service was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Our waitress was very helpful and had good recommendations for us. We found it particularly nice that the restaurant also offers a takeaway service - ideal for a quick but high-quality meal at home. Overall, an absolutely recommendable restaurant for a relaxed evening with delicious food in beautiful surroundings. We'll definitely be back!

Great location, very friendly and natural staff, great food (we had the smash-drop sandwich three times, none of the other dishes).

I visited the kiosk twice. It took forever both times, even though I only bought a cappuccino and ice cream and there was no one there except me. A 1 euro surcharge for oat milk is outrageous - in my opinion.

Simply awesome, the big wide world in Kressbronn in the shipyard. Seeing Switzerland from here is a surprise.

Great location and prime lakeside setting. But: prices too ambitious for what's on offer.

Very tasty, whenever we are at Lake Constance we eat there. Great concept with regionality and very nice owners/staff. Always worth a trip!

Very good food and very good service. We have rarely eaten as well as we did here. The ambience is also very unusual but stylish. Would love to come here again.

A warm welcome, unobtrusive and attentive service, who offered excellent wine recommendations and were simply fantastic in every way. The food was magnificent. These chefs clearly understand their craft and human sensory perception. However, if you're looking for an XXL schnitzel farm, you've come to the wrong place. Portion sizes were ample, and the emphasis here is on quality with finesse. The food is prepared – perhaps not consistently (?) – but primarily regionally, seasonally, and organically. And if the fish isn't from Lake Constance, you'll be informed beforehand without being asked. Add to that this beautiful location with its industrial "loft" design, right on the water. Anyone complaining about the fair prices really hasn't understood anything. Thanks for a great evening!

A very nice location. Super friendly and attentive service. Excellent food. Wishes are fulfilled. Highly recommended for a special evening. Thank you!

Unfortunately very overpriced. We had saddle of venison, some very good vegetables and potato/pear fritters with a very good jus - but €38 is an announcement. The absolute disappointment was the dessert, the wild berry tart (see picture 5/5 by Mr. Steven Sujoto) costs €18!!! A scoop of ice cream with the “little taste of jelly on a shortcrust pastry base” for my wife, I myself had grandma's apple cake, also a scoop of ice cream with a small apple pancake about 10cm in diameter for €14!!! That's cheeky. You pay 50% for the great location and the ambience.

Main course was expensive but very good. Dessert was unacceptable.

Price/performance doesn't fit there. Too bad. The menu selection is also very special. Nice ambience. Would go there more often if the menu or selection was more interesting and cheaper

Excellent food, very friendly service and cool location. Were on February 14th. at the Valentine's special and would love to come back.

We really loved our time on Valentin’s Day there. The service was exceptional and the food was also very good. The atmosphere there was great and we enjoyed every second. We will definitely be back if we’re in the area.

Wir waren Heute am Valentinstag beim Candle Light Dinner mit 4 Personen. Was für ein toller Abend!!! Danke an das Team Werft 1919, es bleibt Unvergesslich...

The starter was really tasty, and I also loved the roast pork - simply fantastic! The dessert also tasted good. Unfortunately the eel was a bit too intense for our taste, but that is of course subjective. The service was extremely friendly and accommodating. Overall a very pleasant experience!”

Tolle Location direkt am Bodensee. Die Küche ist hervorragend, das Personal ist sehr freundlich und bietet einen charmanten Service. Die Atmosphäre in dem Restaurant ist außergewöhnlich.

The shipyard offers great food that is creatively, sustainably, regionally and tastefully prepared and created. The menu always changes depending on the season and there are always vegetarian or vegan options. The atmosphere as well as the prices are at an upscale level, which corresponds to the holistic cuisine.

We had a lot of fun curling with the family including children. The food from the food truck was delicious and the service at the kiosk was very friendly and helpful. We'd love to come back.

A place that combines the modern with the traditional, practically an old warehouse or shipyard transformed into a restaurant with very particular dishes. It was a Hymer event dinner so everything was planned but I must say that it was comfortable and the view was wonderful.

We celebrated our wedding (free wedding) at Werft1919 last October. The shipyard team are absolute professionals. They think for themselves, are reliable and radiate calm and warmth. An open ear for every request or question is a given. We can also only rave about the food. In addition to the very good service and food, the location itself is of course very special and incredibly beautiful, not least because of its proximity to Lake Constance. An extremely successful overall package. A big thank you to the shipyard team 🩷.

Great evening, great food and nice and funny service

A really great place, really good food, good service and a view of the lake

As is often the case on vacation, my wife, our little Jack Russell and I were looking for a location in the evening and came across the 1919 shipyard. I'm not understating when I say it couldn't be better. The taste cannot be surpassed and is prepared with a lot of love and a very good eye, as we all know. The team worked very well together and the “good soul” of the house was a really nice guy who exuded incredible calm and professionalism. You felt like you were in really good hands from start to finish. You MUST have been here.

Food at the wedding was great. Really friendly stuff. Problem to find parking right in front of the building.

Great modern maritime atmosphere, super pleasant and attentive service, great cuisine - absolutely top craftsmanship!

Full marks! Diesel Location is a dream. I was able to provide musical accompaniment to a wedding there. The shipyard is ideal for a free wedding ceremony with a special charm. The rooms are both modern, elegant and cozy. The owners run the shipyard in 1919 with attention to detail and very good cuisine. You can also eat very well here. The service is very warm and courteous and the technology on site is excellent. I'm already looking forward to the next wedding there.

Great restaurant in a wonderful atmosphere! Super delicious cuisine and TOP service from Lukas! Thank you for the unforgettable evening! Perfect! 5 out of 5 stars! Absolutely recommended!

Our experience in the shipyard was very mixed. At the end of the evening, the price-performance ratio was unfortunately not right for us. Maybe good weather and staying in the area with a direct lake view would have made the experience a little better. The food is of good quality, well crafted and tasted good, but unfortunately nothing more. We ate much better for a lot less money. Everything was done in a very “hip” way and the loud “music” was simply unbearable in our opinion. I generally have no problem with electronic music and in a bar we wouldn't have found it so disturbing. However, we just wanted to have a good meal and not visit a club or a cocktail bar. But that's how it seemed. It may be that hipsters like this kind of atmosphere, but unfortunately we don't. The food deserves four stars because of the regionality and craftsmanship, but because of the ambience I can personally only give it 3 stars overall. However, tastes and views vary greatly.

Ein super stylisches Restaurant und eine Eventlocation ,die seinesgleichen sucht!!! Toller, richtig,richtig aufmerksamer und freundlicher Service!!!! Eine kleine,aber tolle Karte und was die Küche rausbringt,ist jeden Cent wert.Wir kommen heute direkt wieder!!!!!

Were there for a wedding. Location is outstanding, view of the lake and the Alps. Services very attentive and friendly. Food, snacks, drinks, everything was great. Familiar, simple dishes but very tasty with good ingredients. Of course I can't say anything about the price, but as a guest 5/5 stars

Wir haben mit Freunden einen Geburtstag gefeiert. Es war alles perfekt. Zum Empfang die Longdrinks und die Tapas. Danach Vor-, Haupt- und Nachspeise. Das Essen, die Bedienung und das Ambiente waren stimmig und ausgezeichnet. Die Gastronomie Werft1919 ist allen zu empfehlen, die etwas besonderes erleben möchten.

In September I was at this location for the first time as a wedding photographer. Here is a short report on our experience as a service provider. The service was terrific. All the employees were friendly and I always had the feeling that everyone enjoyed their job and did it with joy. The location with the view is sensational. Especially the covered version with a view of Lake Constance is a dream. This means couples don't need a plan B if it rains. That's an absolute plus point! The food was sensational and on point! Really all the guests felt comfortable. I don't have any information about prices. As a photographer, the location also offers countless opportunities for couple shoots. This location is an absolute recommendation!

Quality of the food doesn't match the prices. Eating is not recommended.

Very good food with excellent value for money. Very attentive service and a really great ambience rounded off an all-round lovely and successful evening. The view of the lake is particularly great. Absolutely recommended. For us it is by far the best restaurant in Kressbronn. :)

Great location, you sit very nicely, whether in the restaurant or on the loungers. We had dinner here. Starter was great, vegetable field 2.0 (oven vegetables) consisted mostly of peppers (a little sweet potato and zucchini) and was not well seasoned. We had to wait a long time for the food, but they apologized, but only because we had mentioned it. Panini in the kiosk are super delicious and it's great to sit right by the lake.

A few days ago I was able to marry a wedding couple in the beautiful 1919 shipyard. I was really looking forward to it and everything was just right there. The coordination with Julius and Johannes in advance was great, which I unfortunately know differently from other locations. The communication was great and uncomplicated. Everything about the outdoor wedding itself went wonderfully, from the seating to the renovation and technology. The shipyard is really something special, with the lake in the background, beautiful rooms with a very special character. Everything was very professional and quick, but with a lot of love and warmth. Thanks to the entire team - I'm really looking forward to being able to meet you again and wish you and the whole team all the best until then, have a good time and, above all, keep it up. You really don't find a location with a wonderful team, great service philosophy, who live it up and implement it very often anymore. Kind regards from Ravensburg, Beate

Es ist ein nettes Ambiente ohne jede Frage, das Personal war nett. Wir besuchten dieses Restaurant bereits vor 2 Jahren während eines Aufenthalten in der Region. Für mein Empfinden kann in dieser Preisklasse erwarten, dass auf die Wünsche der Gäste eingegangen wird! Bei einem Preis von 35 Euro und man kann eine Beilage nicht austauschen bin ich gelinde gesagt etwas konsterniert. In Zeiten in denen es viele Probleme mit Allergien und Unverträglichkeiten gibt ist meine Erwartungshaltung in dieser Preisklasse ganz klar. Am Ende fanden wir das Essen OK, ich kann mir aber nicht vorstellen das dies der Anspruch sein kann.

Totally cool place. Very nicely prepared. You can feel the charm of the old Bodan shipyard and yet it is a nice place to relax and unwind.

Great ambience, friendly staff and good cuisine. We would love to come back 👍🏻😀.

Tolles Ambiente, hervorragende Küche, sehr professionell alles! Wir haben uns sehr wohl bei Euch gefühlt, kommen sicher mit Freunden und Verwandten wieder und empfehlen Euch weiter 😊

Absolute recommendation! We got married here at the weekend and everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. The employees (big praise to Julius!!!) are incredibly friendly and try to fulfill your wishes as quickly and well as possible :-). The food and drinks were also delicious. We don't even have to start with the location - it's a dream! Thank you again!!

Very good and plentiful: we opted for the 4-course menu. Pleasant discovery.

We celebrated our free wedding in the shipyard. The whole thing was a dream! Starting with the service: Julius exudes calm and composure no matter the situation. Everything went completely smoothly. The location itself with the decoration and the structure of the facility - breathtaking Drinks and food were also very, very good We can recommend the shipyard exactly as it is. Fairytale-like images are created and are an absolute highlight for every occasion.

Unfortunately not air-conditioned and therefore far too warm.

Nice atmosphere on Lake Constance

very cool location right on the water, logo, it was once a shipyard. And you can still see that. Culture, great food and great people in an authentic, yet modern environment.

We hosted a design software event here and are extremely satisfied. From the super cool location, to the very nice, helpful and pragmatic hosts, waiters and employees, to the very good food at lunchtime, we didn't miss anything here. Thank you and gladly again!

Werft1919 - breathtakingly beautiful!

Thank you very much for a lovely evening with very good food. We ate with friends in this restaurant and were able to see that life had returned to a disused shipyard and that simple regional dishes could be interpreted in a modern way. Thanks

Exceptional location I have tickets for that Culture summer ordered

Top service and the food is super good 👍

Cool location with good food. Was there as a DJ at a wedding and despite adverse circumstances that day (flood) the team was friendly and confident.

Sehr coole Location, guter Service trotz parallel laufender Hochzeitsfeier. Sehr gutes Essen, etwas zu teuer. Habe hier schon öfter einen Drink am Ufer genossen, jetzt das erste Mal essen mit Freunden, die es auch klasse fanden

This place is truly exceptional. A small, fine restaurant has been built in the old Bodan shipyard. The cuisine is delicious, the ambience with a mix of modern and old elements, plus Lake Constance... simply great.

Never eaten such delicious game! Super Service! I would love to come back

Great location, good beer, friendly service 👍👍

Too elaborate food, only outdoors and with 12 degrees it wasn't the best.

Simply great, where can you sit at a lathe and eat very well? Great ambience, tasty food, perfect service, recommendation!

Yes... it was a company presentation for customers... mega!

An old converted shipyard on Lake Constance designed as a great event and restaurant. Great views of Lake Constance and the surrounding mountains

I've photographed weddings in the 1919 shipyard several times, the ambience, the decoration, just everything: it was stunning! The food was also really delicious! Service was nice ;-)

Delicious food, nice ambience and very nice service.
