Kulinarik am kai

Where fish specialties come directly from the water to the fish market, famous Hamburg fish restaurants are naturally not far away. The area west of the fish market - downstream - is lined with traditional restaurants, bars, and pubs, one of which recently hoisted a lovingly designed mackerel in its logo.

The atmospheric seafood restaurant 'am kai' (previously: Au Quai) has been delighting its guests with delicious cuisine for around 20 years, along with a spectacular view of the Elbe River, the Docklands, and the passing ocean liners on their way to the open sea. If you want to head to the fish restaurant 'am kai', you simply need to continue following the ships in the direction of the North Sea.

The restaurant is not located directly at the Hamburg fish market, but at Große Elbstraße 145 - just continue leisurely along the quay wall from the fish market, passing by the modern Stilwerk, various partially rustic harbor pubs, and the warehouses.

Here, the Hamburg harbor is no longer just a backdrop, but the atmosphere is genuine, authentic, and truly 'Hamburgish'... and when you see a restaurant with a mackerel in its logo, you have arrived at 'am kai'. Here, you dine in the front row right by the Elbe, while the delicious cosmopolitan dishes and fish specialties from our chef take the helm and take you on a culinary journey.
