Zum Klabautermann in Zingst

I looked at the reviews of the restaurants in the area and decided on this one. A few others performed worse, or better ones closed. It's not summer yet. The waitress was very attentive and kept a watchful eye. The restaurant and toilets were perfectly clean, everything could just use a little freshening up. A little more zeitgeist. The food matched the interior. It was no longer decorated in a contemporary manner and could use a little more pizzazz. The shrimp were absolutely done, but my fish was on point. The fried potatoes could have been a little crunchier and slightly less buttery. Unfortunately, my daughter's schnitzel was too thick and too well-done. As a result, the lightness of a schnitzel was lost and the crunch of the fried potatoes was lost. It just has to be a little fluffy. A little tip, watch Hänssler's YouTube video, that's how I do mine too, it always works. Why am I writing this? I tried to say it nicely on the spot, but was immediately met with friendly resistance. The criticism is meant kindly because they are also lovely people. But it's not a 4.6, but rather a 3.4. I would be happy about an improvement in the food and would be happy to come back.

Very courteous, quick and careful service - thanks to Cem🙏 The food was very good, but could have been seasoned a little better. Dessert - Yoghurt Panna Cotta with raspberry topping super fresh, light and tasty, not so sweet. Perfect 👍 Unfortunately, the design of the menu is not really appealing. Interior design similar...

On the recommendation of a friend, we decided to visit the restaurant at short notice. About 15 minutes before our arrival we called to inquire about the availability of a table. There is space for 2 people, but the kitchen only works until 8 p.m. That wasn't a problem for us either. When we arrived we were greeted in an unfriendly manner and were told that the kitchen would not cook until 7:45 p.m. (we had it shortly after 7:30 p.m. in the half-filled restaurant). Something like that can always happen, but we overheard another conversation between another waitress and other arriving guests who were rudely pointed out that the kitchen was closed. When paying, we mentioned the unfriendliness of our waitress. Unfortunately, the explanations weren't helpful either, which is why I'm writing this review here in this form. The food was good, home-style and lived up to expectations. For cod in an egg shell, schnitzel hunter style and 2 drinks we paid less than €50.

Yes, delicious food with large portions. Staff who are happy to respond to requests.

A must try, good home cooking and full plates

leckeres Essen für einen angemessenen Preis, für jeden Geschmack etwas dabei, Portionen reichlich, gutes Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis, schnell und frisch gekocht, Bedienung sehr freundlich, Besuch in Familie mit Kind Dankeschön

A small but absolutely fine restaurant. We ate there without a reservation on a Monday in the low season (02/17/25). The restaurant was full. We got a place. There are some deductions here because there were 4x tables for 2, which were about 50cm apart. stood to each other. But that's more papal than the pope. There was enough space to eat and talk. 🫠 This restaurant has been noted and we would love to come back. The service was also very friendly and attentive.

Super tasty food and the service was super nice. I can only recommend it.

Highly recommended, local cuisine. We had a daily recommendation, redfish and plaice with pumpkin mash and savoy cabbage. It was quick and the food was very good. The dishes at the neighboring tables also looked promising...

Nice atmosphere, nice staff. I had the fish platter and felt the fish burping throughout the evening. Very unusual for me as a fish fan.

Food tasty and plentiful. Service very friendly. Be sure to reserve in advance during the season. If my review was useful, please give it a thumbs up. Ate here again today after a good two years. This time enthusiasm is limited. Implement change requests - none. Food already prepared, so no changes are possible. 🫤 Service is still fine. Food so-so. But a dog in the kitchen is also not possible. I won't be coming back for a while.

It was pretty disappointing. Requests for food, e.g. Extra champies for the schnitzel, fried potatoes instead of fries, "not possible", there is no vegetarian or vegan option. “Salad” was the offer. You can't even opt out of bacon at the farmer's breakfast. The tone of it, not friendly. The food wasn't great either, the sour meat wasn't really sour, the pork was dry and tough, and everything was generally too bland. Well, the main thing is that the dog in the kitchen had fun, which is what the health department says about it. Conclusion, not again.

Food was great. Service was also friendly. You should probably call ahead and ask for a seat. We were lucky, it wasn't that full at 5:30 p.m. The ambience was a bit older, but I think that's in the eye of the beholder

Years ago it was a very nice restaurant, you could absolutely enjoy the food and the service was super nice. Today things look different! The staff is unfriendly and shows a lack of interest in the customer. The food isn't what it used to be either. The quality has deteriorated significantly. What bothered us the most was, as I said, the very unfriendly staff. All I can say is, go a few steps further to the beach cottage, you won't regret it at all.

Simple cuisine, without sophistication, which is ok for the prices. The service is extremely friendly and attentive. The overall picture is sober and everything seems very neat and clean.

Very tasty food, friendly staff, beautifully furnished and decorated and very clean toilets!! Absolutely recommended. 😊

We had a great time here on New Year's Eve in the heated outdoor tent

Very nice service and great ambience

The price-performance ratio can be answered with good+. The service is quick and you don't have to wait long for what you order. Gladly again.

Large portions, super tasty and very friendly and fast service! Price-performance ratio is outstanding!

Ate super tasty. Very nice service. Price/performance fits. We'll be back.

Ein alteingesessenes Restaurant. Fischgerichte in der Norm besser als Fleisch! Große Ausnahme der Pflaumen Rollbraten ! Sehr lecker und sehr zart ! Bedienung ist freundlich und schnell. Gerne wieder.

Very good restaurant in Zingst. You can eat very well, especially fish dishes. Nice and courteous service! Gladly again!

Very good price-performance ratio

Even after 2 p.m. you're not really welcome as a "coffee" guest, as long as there's still enough hope for "dining guests". The in-house advertising outside the restaurant, which advertises a hot drink and a piece of cake, doesn't seem to be really known to the employees. Otherwise it is a decent, cozy economy.

Down-to-earth food with a really generous portion size at a more than fair price.

Wir hatten am Weihnachtsfeiertag eine halbe Ente- im Fischrestaurant, kein Problem. Es gab auch extra ausgewählte Fisch-Tagesangebote. Das Essen ist sehr lecker, die Teller reich gefüllt (haben wir auch am Nebentisch beobachtet) die Preise überraschend gut. Den Klabautermann kann ich nur empfehlen wenn man Zingst besucht.

A very good restaurant great service

Very tasty food, fast and friendly service, good quality

When we are in Zingst, we always eat there (for years). Service and food are always top!!! Unfortunately, there are always guests who have no idea good food, taking out their bad mood on the staff and not being able to behave. It's a shame that restaurateurs can't rate their guests. That would only be fair

Very tasty and very nice service

Very simple but very good food and very good service

So first of all, I had dinner with my partner and we just can't understand these negative reviews about poor service. We were always met in a friendly manner both on the phone (when making the reservation) and on site in the restaurant. The food was great, a little much in the starter, but great home cooking. From our table we could also see how the restaurant was filling up, including a lot of walk-in customers and they were trying to find a place for everyone. It also depends on how you talk to the waiter and the innkeeper and a host doesn't have to put up with everything. Maybe some guests should take a look at themselves and not judge them badly if they are not allowed to push tables together, or do your guests also rearrange half of the apartment when they visit?! Stay realistic, it's a good place :)

The schnitzel tastes really delicious and would be enough for two people.

Everything is just right here. The service is quick and very friendly. The food was super tasty.

I don't like the farmer's omelet

friendly staff, good food... always happy

Why does the restaurant have such good reviews? Ambience inside is very old-fashioned. Seating from the 80s? The terrace, on the other hand, has been beautifully done. The food is so…sorry for saying that, typical Ossi. The seasoned meat was in such a glassy white sauce that I don't think there was any milk or cream in the roux. And it was also poorly seasoned. For the main course, the raw vegetable salad with lots of iceberg, a tomato quarter and two slices of cucumber. Absolutely loveless. But at least with delicious dressing. Unfortunately the fish died for the second time in the pan, more like the grill. Very dry. Fried potatoes were just about ok. The second main course, the pike perch, wasn't much better. Fish was dry, shrimps that were supposed to be North Sea crabs but were out were barely seasoned. And then the Labskaus…catastrophe! Here, too, there was no milk or cream on the potato mixture, so it tasted very watery. Corned beef or beef was hardly available. Maybe the right chef now has a vacation after the season (which he certainly deserves after a hard season). This can definitely be done better. Too bad about the money. The plates at the surrounding tables were not empty either, which is certainly not due to large portions.

My wife and I haven't eaten fish this well for a long time and at a reasonable price. The ambience is rather simple but the food is first class. The very courteous service rounded off our very pleasant visit. We would love to come back when we are in Zingst!

Good food, good service and a pleasant atmosphere. A place to feel comfortable.

Very tasty, even if you don't like fish.

The food is very tasty and the price-performance ratio is good. The staff is very friendly. We'd love to go there again.

Gut sortierte Speisekarte, aufmerksame Bedienung, akzeptabele Preise. Mit der Gruppe vier verschiedene Gerichte, alle zufrieden. Hunde laut Schild an der Eingangstür nicht erwünscht, um so verwunderlicher, in der Küche!! lief ein Hund herum, deswegen Punktabzug

Unfassbar schlechtes Essen, trockenes und altes Baguette, unfreundliche freche Bedienung. NIE WIEDER!!!!!! Anscheinend hat man es nicht mehr nötig gutes Essen und eine freundliche Bedienung an den Kunden heranzutragen. Ich kann nur jedem abraten der gutes Essen erwartet.

Super delicious food! Decent portions. Very good price-performance ratio.

We had dinner at Klabautermann for the first time on November 1st, 2024 and we really enjoyed it. Since we hadn't made a reservation, we went there as a couple and got a table, the restaurant has a few tables for walk-in customers who did not make a reservation. The restaurant was very busy, but the service was still very good, friendly and nice. Dishes were also offered that were not on the menu, very good service. I ate Labskaus there for the first time and was very impressed by this dish, I really enjoyed it, my wife's food (Zander fillet) was also very good., all in all, a very successful stay at Klabautermann, we'll come back Definitely again the next time we are in Zingst.

Another of the many restaurants in Zingst that I wasn't allowed to enter with my dog. What makes matters worse is that guests are not allowed to freely choose the payment method. The fact that only German EC cards are accepted is at best critical of the EU; worse would be simple xenophobia.

Wir haben extra einen Tisch vorbestellt da es sonst kaum möglich ist einen Tisch zu bekommen. Es war für uns ein etwas besseres Schnell Restaurant und nicht mehr. Service war super, aber das Essen war echt nicht besonders. Wir hatten zum einen die Tagesempfehlung "Fisch zweierlei" und die Fischplatte. Das gesamte Essen war kaum bis garnicht gewürzt und auch total lieblos angerichtet. Mein Lachs wurde als Ersatz für den Barsch gebracht (gab es nicht) dieser war ziemlich verbrannt und war dadurch bitter. Die Champisoße von der Tagesempfehlung schmeckte doll nach Chemie und war echt nicht schön anzusehen. Außerdem waren die Salate mit irgendwelcher schweren Salat Dressing Soße vermischt, was absolut nicht dolle war. Ich bin nicht unbedingt der Salatfreak, aber meine Frau bekommt das auf jeden Fall besser hin. Wir haben uns die Rezessionen vorher durchgelesen und haben uns eigentlich mehr davon versprochen. Wir sind trotzdem satt geworden,aber eine Empfehlung würde ich zur Zeit nicht geben...

I was very interested in the menu and the associated prices. Then I read in the reviews that dogs are not welcome. We then didn't eat there. You can accept the house rules, but you don't have to.

There were five of us and as soon as we entered the almost empty restaurant we were told that we could only sit at two separate tables or on the heated outside terrace. 'We don't push tables together here.' With normal wooden tables and cold, rainy weather in autumn, simply without words. We then went somewhere else.

Ate zander fillet with fried potatoes on October 29, 2024. My wife and I gave this meal a rating of A. Staff very friendly. Atmosphere in the restaurant was pleasant. I can recommend it at any time.

Everyone is unfriendly, it's raining outside and it's cold but you're supposed to eat outside

Food was very tasty. Very nice staff.

Zum Klabautermann is a typical regional fish restaurant, but also serves hearty home cooking. Here father and son can be found in the guest room. Everything here revolves around the well-being of the customers. A reservation is absolutely necessary. The range of dishes on offer is varied. The service is top notch.

I haven't eaten such bad uninspired cuisine in a long time. Solyanka Tomato soup with overcooked stuff - I would almost assume that stuff came from a can Shrimp on wild herb salad The shrimp died in the pan a second time - the "salad" was completely unmarinated (leaves from the package onto the plate) - the baguette was old and dry If you don't care about taste and enjoyment and value quick food and oversized portions, you may feel at home here. For me that was absolutely disappointing.

Cozy restaurant. The staff is friendly and the food is very good. Cod fillet in an egg shell was no longer glassy but still juicy. The fish soup was awesome. Actually more of a fish solyanka but so delicious that it would have to be given 6 stars.

Went there this morning and asked for a reservation. We don't make any statements. In the evening two tables came in with reservation signs and couldn't get a seat. This is indecent and not okay. I was always friendly and asked reasonable questions.

I can only recommend the super delicious food 👍👍👍👍👍 I stand right in front of it twice a year and always look forward to the good cuisine 😋😋😋😋😋

We can only say good things about this restaurant. It was very well attended, but there was covered and heated seating outside which had a great atmosphere. The staff is very friendly and really on the ball! The menu is not too overloaded, but very varied. The portions were very large and the quality and taste were really very good. We'd love to come back to you when we're back in Zingst

Food was ok but nothing that knocked you off the table. Unfortunately the service was a bit unfriendly.

Everything was very good from the service to the food, very good value for money, large portions,

We spontaneously decided to have dinner there while passing by and were not disappointed. Delicious home cooking at fair prices. The service was nice and courteous👍🏼

Small normal restaurant The prawn cocktail was a disgrace, no taste, way too much salad, no sauce, just not ok for just under €10 Jägerschnitzel was also just ok. The fish seems to be more of a hit, everyone around us was eating fish. However, the service was commendable.

We give 100 points out of 100 today.

Very tasty food, very friendly service.

Small centrally located restaurant. Unfortunately the starter (shrimp cocktail) was a complete failure and in this case way too expensive. The main course (Jägerschnitzel) was a decent portion. The price is completely ok. The service is quick and friendly.

Good food with nice service, thank you

Es war ein perfekter Start in unseren Urlaub. Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen und schnell platziert, das Essen war sehr lecker, unsere Kellnerin (und nicht nur die allein) immer freundlich und zuvorkommend und das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis durchaus angebracht. Von daher gibt es von uns eine klare Empfehlung.

We really liked it. It's worth visiting again next time.

The food was well...the fish was unfortunately too dry, the fried potatoes weren't crispy and the salad was simply tasteless - nothing that you'll remember from a culinary perspective. Portion size was large and reasonably priced. The service was friendly and quick. All in all: you can do it - but you don't have to.

This evening we spontaneously went to Klabautermann, which was a very good idea. The service was very nice and attentive. We once had the farmer's breakfast, it was prepared a little differently than expected. But it was delicious that's the main thing! My husband had the 500g plaice and couldn't stop raving about it. So there's nothing wrong with going there again. Definitely recommended. 2 dogs were at least no problem outside, we don't know of any inside.

Mit Hund nicht erwünscht Am Eingang wird darauf hingewiesen, dass Hunde bei Regenwetter nicht ins Restaurant dürfen. Das ist m. E. Ok, aber heute hat es nur nachmittags geregnet. Als ich gerade ins Restaurant gehen wollte, ist es trocken und windig. Kein Tropfen Regen fällt vom Himmel und mein Hund ist ebenfalls trocken. Dennoch wurde mir der Zutritt verweigert. Eine Schande für einen eigentlich hundefreundlichen Ort.

Wanted to go out to eat in the company of our medium-sized, clean and dry dog. Were brushed out in a very very unfriendly manner right in the entrance area. Impossible.

Very nice staff, you are served quickly and the food was very good and everything was fresh. Recommended

Incredibly unfriendly staff - they didn't even place an order. We were disgusted in the most disgusting way because we wanted to sit with children. Unfortunately, negative reviews will probably be deleted because there were some of them, often with reference to children! Absolutely not recommended this store

A very nice atmosphere in this restaurant. The staff is very friendly and the dishes are prepared very lovingly. The food was super delicious and we will definitely come back again 😊

Unfortunately, there was a significant deterioration compared to last year. The fried potatoes were very fatty and hardly seasoned; in terms of taste, they were only warmed up in fat and not freshly fried. We knew this much better from last year. Nice service staff, prices okay.

Impossible staff. As a single you should sit down with strangers, even if it's outside and there are free tables. Totally discriminatory.

Like last year, great food, large portion and great service at a very good price, thank you very much.

The three of us went to this restaurant for the first time. It is furnished normally, without any chic, there is enough space between the tables. The staff are friendly. The portions are very large, including the senior plate, which we were forced to take because my friend's mother only eats very little and not everything. We would have liked to have had a children's plate with fish fingers for her, but this was refused, saying that the plate was only intended for children and would not be given to adults. She then took a senior's plate from the daily menu, fried cod with fried potatoes, which was still far too big. My friend didn't take anything because she knew she would have to eat almost all of her mother's plate, which was met with astonishment. I then just took a solyanka, which was very good. With a little more flexibility they would have sold two normal plates and a children's plate plus drinks, so it was just a senior plate and a solyanka. Too bad. However, I have to say on the positive side that you don't necessarily have to make a reservation, you can come spontaneously.

Wanted to have lunch here with three adults, a child (4) and 2 babies (10 months). There were a few tables occupied and the food looked good. We would be sent outside without a friendly greeting because it would be “too narrow.” From our point of view, there would have been more than enough space inside and letting babies sit outside in a windy 14 degrees was unacceptable to us. Unfortunately, no one came towards us, so we walked 30 meters further and found a really great shop where we were warmly welcomed.

We had dinner here this evening (9/30/24). The waitresses are all super friendly. I had the daily special of cod fillet with homemade potato salad and my friend had the farmer's breakfast. Both were extremely tasty, absolutely top, the fish and everything else was a poem🤗🤩👏🏻 A big compliment to the kitchen. Absolutely recommended 👏🏻👍🏻🤗

Admittedly, I was in the restaurant shortly before the kitchen closed, but the food was very scarce. Soft, soggy fried potatoes that may have been stored in the pan for a long time, a dry pike-perch fillet, a salad made from simple ingredients: canned corn and iceberg lettuce, which, as always, is almost tasteless.

We were always super satisfied 3 years ago, but yesterday totally disappointed with the food, it's really getting worse, what a shame!

Ate well and tasty, was lucky with a free table as it was very busy for dinner. Service very friendly and quick - gladly again!

The food was really good. I had the sour meat in the jar and it tasted like my grandma's 😋

Due to the pos. Checked reviews online. Very well eaten with friendly service.

Would eat there again and again, very tasty and the portions are really good and on Mondays they have great homemade potato salad. (Best value for money and if you can't get a seat it's worth the wait)

Good fish restaurant. The plaice was fried in egg breading and served with homemade potato salad and salad. Was very tasty.

Today was our first time eating there, and for my part also the last time. I ordered fish that was supposed to be a little gratinated with egg and shrimp. When I didn't find any shrimp and asked, I got the answer that she forgot to say that there were no more. Then I said that my fish was very dry and was completely cooked through, and the waitress just said that I had sauce. That's what it would be intended for. Sorry, but no. I don't eat anymore.

Very courteous service, the food was okay, unfortunately the shrimp were overcooked or too hard (O-shaped, crabs were unfortunately out)

We were there at lunchtime, the restaurant was very full. Friendly service. One point deduction: the food doesn't arrive at the table hot, so it cools down very quickly. Taste OK.

At first we thought, oh dear, we'll have to wait. But the line thinned out quickly and we got a table. The employees were very busy and we had our fish platter in front of us very quickly. Very nicely prepared and very plentiful. And of course it tasted good. Many thanks to the team.

We were at Klabautermann 3 times. We were served very friendly every time. The food, whether fish or meat, was delicious and the portions were large. When the weather is nice, dining outdoors is very pleasant. The price-performance ratio is very good.

Rich selection of dishes. Large portions with the possibility of getting smaller ones. Fast and friendly service in a cozy atmosphere. Our fish and schnitzel dishes were very tasty. Changing daily offers.

The daily recommendation, fillets of sea bream and pollack with lentil curry and cucumber salad tasted great. The fish was fresh and well fried. My husband also really enjoyed the egg-baked cod. If I were in Zingst for longer, I would eat at Klavautermann every day.

Got the wrong bill and was cheated out of €10...food is okay

Wer Kinder hat, sollte sich von diesem Restaurant fernhalten - diese sind offensichtlich absolut nicht erwünscht. Die absolut unverschämte Kellnerin mit dem Schielauge konnte das nicht einmal freundlich kommunizieren und wurde sehr aufmüpfig. So etwas habe ich noch nicht erlebt! Dazu werden noch (gerechtfertigt) schlechte Bewertungen gelöscht...

Great restaurant, unfortunately very full, be sure to reserve in advance.

Super tasty fish at fair prices!
