北海客栈

Set in 10ha of parkland, Jagdhaus Eiden enjoys a wonderful location. The restaurant of the long-established hotel run by the Zur Brügge family specialises in modern cuisine with international influences. The menu is varied, making generous use of regional ingredients such as lake fish, game and vegetables. Diners are seated in a number of handsomely decorated rooms, including the bright, airy conservatory overlooking the lake. The gorgeous garden terrace is equally inviting. Tip: Combine your meal with a trip to the in-house casino.

Mouthwatering options on menu include Heligoland lobster bisque and skrei fillet with a tomato and thyme crust. Wallet-friendly lunch specials such as beef roulades or goulash also have their fans. The tables near the windows and on the terrace are especially coveted – the view of the New Harbour is beautiful. Given the popularity of this place, it's definitely best to book in advance.

Located in The Liberty hotel, this is a tastefully modern fine dining restaurant with floor-to-ceiling windows that afford a view of the small harbour. There is also a gorgeous terrace. Chef Phillip Probst and his team use excellent ingredients to create an interesting set menu comprising four to eight courses. The dishes are contemporary, yet classical in their foundations, and the wonderfully intense sauces deserve a mention. Shining examples are the cauliflower polonaise (served with an exquisite beurre blanc enhanced with Imperial caviar) and the beetroot with barbecued eel. The fairly pri
