Schiffergesellschaft
A historic restaurant housed in the former guildhall of the Shipowners' Association, where long wooden benches and ship models create a maritime atmosphere, specializing in fish and traditional North German dishes.
This restaurant is located in the historic guildhall at the northern end of Breite Straße. The association purchased the building in 1535 and has used it ever since, serving as a meeting place for mariners for nearly 500 years. The main hall retains its dark wood paneling, long benches, and suspended ship models; guests recommend requesting a table in the main hall if possible. The menu focuses heavily on fish, with signatures including Holstein Matjes (pickled herring), catfish fillet, and Labskaus, alongside vegan options. Although there is ample seating, reservations are highly recommended. Average spend is around €21–€40 per person. It is about a 10-minute walk from the Town Hall.
Opening hours
Tue–Sun 12:00–22:00, closed Mon (hours may vary on some platforms; subject to confirmation by the restaurant)
