波兰卡旅馆

Named after the Polish national dance, this intimate restaurant is set within the Hilton Swinoujscie Resort & Spa. As you settle into the bright and colourful dining room, look out for the wines in illuminated cabinets and the meat and fish in ageing fridges. The menu mixes Polish aspects with a classical French base, in dishes such as lamb saddle with dauphinoise potato and mint pesto. The wine list features plenty of German options, with a few Polish ones too.

The name is an easy clue that this restaurant inside the Radisson Blu hotel is all about seafood. Although there are meat dishes, fish and shellfish lead the way on a menu where you could opt for a light, wallet-friendly meal or splash out and celebrate. Oysters are available to start, of course, but the Baltic herring is a great alternative and main dishes like halibut with spaghetti show subtle creativity while still highlighting the natural flavours of the ingredients.

Named after its address down a cobbled side street hidden away in the city centre, this bright and colourful spot welcomes you in with open arms. Start with a drink in the cocktail bar before taking a seat near the semi-open kitchen and enjoying seasonal dishes with a modern, restrained style that puts the focus on just a few skilfully cooked ingredients. The fish dumplings with a rich, creamy shellfish sauce are a prime example of the chefs’ talents.

Right next to Ahlbeck's main church, this cosy restaurant has a charming and down-to-earth atmosphere. The proprietress manages the service with warmth, ease and expertise, while her husband takes care of the cooking. The cuisine is predominantly regional. Both of the three- to five-course menus (one of them vegetarian) and the à la carte options are popular – the decision won't be easy. If you wish to stay on, two holiday apartments are available.
