Backfisch-Udo
A fishing boat moored on the old canal selling beer-battered fish sandwiches, among Warnemünde's most talked-about.
Moored on the west bank of Warnemünde's old canal, this fishing boat sells fish sandwiches right from the deck and is a classic example of canal-side fishing-boat snacks. Its specialty is the beer-battered fish sandwich. It also serves fried squid, plain fish sandwiches and fries. You can eat standing up or sit by the canal, but watch out for seagulls, which often try to snatch food, so keep a firm hold on your sandwich. Reviews are mixed. Many praise the fried fish fillets, while some find the service cold. A fish sandwich costs about €8, which is pricey for canal-side food but convenient. It is about a 3-minute walk from Warnemünde station and is also open on weekdays.
