What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Entenwerder1 is celebrated for its stunning riverside location and unique floating island setting, offering a relaxing ambiance. While many praise the delicious grilled cheese sandwiches, coffee, and refreshing cocktails, some visitors find the wait times long, especially on sunny days, and note that food and coffee can be overpriced. Service quality can vary, with some experiencing exceptional attentiveness and others encountering unfriendly staff.
"Fantastic location by the river- idyllic place to wine and dine with great views in good weather conditions.
Grilled cheese sandwiches are to die for!
Selection of cakes and coffees is good.
Cocktails are very refreshing.
The only downside is that on the sunny days this place is packed with people and you need to queue to order your food and drinks.
The crowd is usually great - a good mixture of young and old people + kids + dogs. Definitely not a hipster place ;)
Highly recommended!"
So Rotten
"Well this is a beautiful place with a really nice view. For a refreshing time over the water in the park where you can just witness the beauty and breathe fresh air, definitely a must visit.
The coffee is also good. Hangout with family or friends or just by yourself probably with a book and cafe, this place does not disappoint at all."
Yeasir Zaman
"This used to be a secret spot. It is no longer. On sunny days, a long line of people will wait for the excellent coffee. If you are patient enough - or if the day is not as sunny - there mostly are loads of nice spots to sit down and enjoy the view and the water. There is a standard menu of open faced sandwiches, scrambled eggs as well as cake and croissants. I love it when they add freshly cooked food to the menu."
