Top 5 boat restaurants in Berlin

There's something about boats that brings out the fun in people. Maybe it's the possibility that you might sink or – normally – once sailing, you can't get off, so you make the most of it. Whatever the reason, it's time to embrace it with my Top 5 boat restaurants in Berlin. While there aren't many restaurants to eat on a boat in Berlin, those that serve the water promise a unique experience with some of Berlin's most beautiful views. Here we go!

Boats tour on the Spree

Patio aka Riethoen

 

Probably the best spot in Moabit for a nicely plated fine dining dinner experience! The ship restaurant is located on the river Spree with a fantastic view and neatly served food but still kept young with all the service staff. In summer you can enjoy the beautiful sunset drinking wine on the deck, in winter you can sit around the cosy fire places on the upper and lower deck.

 

They also have other boats, which are not only anchored! From RIETHOEN you can admire Bellevue Palace, the House of World Cultures, the Berlin Cathedral, the City Palace, the Chancellery, the government quarter and other historical sights in an exclusive atmosphere. Twice a day the boat depart for the Apero Cruise (17:00) and the Sunset Cruise (21:00). With an aperitif and a small culinary surprise you start the evening on the RIETHOEN and through the city centre of Berlin. Or after dinner you can go on a journey into the sunset with a digestif. I personally recommend the Sunset Cruise!

Gode Wind

 

On the boat restaurant Gode Wind you can enjoy your food or drink with a fantastic view of the Rummelsburger Bucht as far as the television tower. Here you can sit in the sun, white the sails of the boat looks like it was about to be put into sea. This magnificent pirate boat is originally a requisite from a German film production and was converted into a restaurant in 2017. After your visit you can enjoy a walk at Rummelsburger Bucht. Whether by kayak, pedal boat or picnic boat in the Rummelsburger Bucht you can spend a relaxing day on the water. Once a month Ahoi Ostkreuz invites you to the Clean Up Regatta to free the Rummelsburger Bay from rubbish. Anyone can use one of the boats for two hours without paying, for which there is a garbage bag on board.
