Wiekhaus 45

Top choice in Northern Germany


The most appealing place to eat in Neubrandenburg is this renovated guardhouse set into the wall. Waiters zip up and down the narrow stairwell carrying huge portions of Mecklenburg specialities (start with the tasty onion soup served with fresh bread; look for fresh herring in season). Outside tables in summer.
