Best Restaurants in Hamburg (2026)

Hamburg's food scene runs from simple fish counters to some of the most celebrated kitchens in Germany. For local classics, the Old Commercial Room beside the Michel is known for Labskaus, the Oberhafen-Kantine has served Frikadellen and other Hamburg dishes in its leaning brick building since 1925, and Daniel Wischer has fried fish in the city since 1924. Café Paris near the Rathaus is a French brasserie with a tiled Art Nouveau hall, and Olá Lisboa represents the Portuguese Quarter close to the harbour.

At the top end, The Table Kevin Fehling in HafenCity holds three Michelin stars, 100/200 kitchen serves a surprise menu around a central stove in a former factory, and Landhaus Scherrer has cooked North German haute cuisine on the Elbchaussee since 1976. Book these weeks or months ahead and read the policies on allergies and cancellations. Rive in Altona offers seafood with harbour views and welcomes walk-ins, and Bullerei in the Schanzenviertel pairs an all-day deli with an evening grill restaurant. Many places close one or two days a week, so check opening days before you set out.
