At the traditional harbour kiosk Goldfisch in Schilksee, those who value not only good taste but also a large selection will find what they are looking for. No really, the menu seems to go on forever! From herring and trout, mackerel and salmon to eel and halibut, it's all there. You'll probably have to visit twice. Or three times. Or ten times.

Jan & Hein & Klaas & Pit Seafood
Where can you find the longest fish sandwich in the city? Rumour has it that it's at Jan & Hein & Klaas & Pit Sea Food on the Kiellinie. And not in the restaurant itself, but at the little stall right outside the door. The home-baked rolls and sophisticated combinations such as baked fish with tomato and avocado salsa or smoked salmon with lime and garlic cream are a real hit!

At Laboe harbour, it's best to stumble straight into the Fischküche Laboe and treat yourself to an oven-fresh fish roll or other fish delicacies, such as crab salad. From the (ideally) sunny terrace, you have a direct view of the fishing boats, while the freshly caught fish is prepared in the open kitchen according to your individual wishes.

Fish from the fisherman

In the harbour of Möltenort, fish is still sold the way it should be: directly from the fisherman who was still out at sea in the morning. It doesn't get more authentic than that. And just between you and me: if the fisherman's surname is also "Fischer", that can only be a good omen! If you stop by here, you can get homemade codfish rissoles, matjes, smoked salmon and much more.
