What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors rave about the incredibly fresh seafood and authentic local atmosphere at the Warnemünde Fish Market. The communal tables offer a unique chance to connect with locals, and prices are considered very reasonable for the quality. Some find the fish and chips a bit oily, and knowing your fish preferences can enhance the experience.
"On a business trip we stopped here for lunch.
The place is nice and has the Nordic feeling. The food was ok, fish and chips very oily and heavy. Maybe the other options are better? The price are fair."

"If you're in Rostock and love fresh seafood, it's a must-visit! There was about a 20-minute wait, but it was worth it. The food was freshly cooked and full of flavor.
A real gem for seafood lovers. Highly recommended!"

"We ordered some cold fish without knowing….Both of us can’t handle that so we ordered another one which is warm…. a good place still. Worthy to pay a visit but you’d better know fishes a bit better. Don’t be like us! ㅠㅠ"
