The Strandperle is for lots of people living in Hamburg a kind of a famous café. They are right. It is really beautiful. It is directly situated at the Elbe and visitors have really a great view at this river. You may watch the huge ships passing by while you are having a coffee or you are enjoying your breakfast. A small beach is directly in front of the café The café is very special and you will find lots of young people spending their time here. Lots of people in the twenties and thirties go there to meet friends or to relax. The atmosphere is amazing. When you go there simply to have coffee and to relax it often may happen that people start a conversation without knowing you at all. This is the result of such a comfortable atmosphere. Everybody is relaxed and life is beautiful again. The service is very friendly and professional. It is really worth going there and enjoy this place. read more

Good and cheap restaurant in Altona, near the beach. They serve sausages with bread and potatoes salad, and other traditional German fast-food. We were sitting at a table which was just in the way between the stairs and the beach, so there was a lot of passing. read more

This little beach bar is a Hamburg institution. Little did I know when I got there on a beautiful Sunday afternoon that they're actually open year-round. You can't really miss it as it's located in an old hut right at the beach Övelgönne. With 37F out there people were sunbathing (wrapped in their jackets like Eskimos, of course) and it's clear that this is one of Hamburg's hot spots to chill (or walk the beach). Strandperle serves coffee & tea, as well as soups and snacks. It's usually packed but the line moved quickly when I was there. I admit that I'm a tourist in Hamburg but this place is on my list whenever I'm back in the city. read more

Simple beach joint. Relatively young crowd. The prices are ok, considering they really fill your white wine glass. A bit too uptight with the timing of the orders. We wanted to order fries but had to wait 8 minutes because they don't accept the order earlier than 12:30... nice and relaxing atmosphere. Just too bad the waitresses ignored us when we tried ordering drinks. The wines are ok-ish... waited too long for fries... overall we give it 3*... read more

Strandperle - Great location. Wanted to order fries, but the kitchen only takes order from 12:30 onwards, no exceptions, so we had to wait. - German Near Me - Hamburg, HH

Very nice location and the food is good (if they still serve it). Having said this, the service is just not able to keep up with the demand which shows the lack of concept: Only some service personal is allowed to take orders/payments whereas others only serve as "food/drink carriers". Thus, getting attention of one of the few "higher ranked waiters" to order or pay is just nearly impossible. Due to bad attention to the tables people stand in line right at the kitchen door to order or pay. This results in the other guests receiving even less attention. Furthermore, they stopped serving breakfast at 11am on a Sunday due to the kitchen not being able to keep up with the amount of orders. Final conclusion: Nice location but due to the incapable personal only recommended if you have a lot of time and a high level of frustration tolerance. read more

Strandperle is a beach bar, that quite unlike most beach bars in Hamburg is actually on the beach! Unfortunately the beach that it's on is the slightly crappy Elbstrand, but even so you can have a great time here. They do beer, wine, snacks and full meals. It's all a little bit overpriced, but hey, you're on a beach, so that's to be expected. I recommend coming in the late evening, watching the sun go down and then staying to watch the port at night. Last time I visited we actually got to watch the moon set too! (With a glass of Riesling) read more

Location is great! On the beach with a stunning view of the harbor! Food and service is ok. But they only accept cash!!! In this day and age not acceptable. read more

Where does one hear the ships already better? Where does one see one more dog? Where does one see more Punks (there are it still) and infants on a heap? Where do the people wait so patiently and in a long line for their fried sausage? In the beach pearl! Directly at the beach of the Elbe stop of everything is possible. And n the winter: country under. Also beautifully! read more

This is the best place Hamburg has to offer. Come here as long as it's not raining too much; enjoy the river, the view, the ships, your beers. Relax about speedy service, this is not why you are here, just be glad you have a chair. And if it's too crowded, just get your basics from the counter and sit on the rocks or the sand. Don't expect any delicacies - some beers or Weinschorle, some fish rolls or so ... all not bad but certainly not great ... and some serious shipping on view. Kids playing in the sand between the tables. This is Hamburg. read more

This place rocks! A great beach bar with a great Hamburg vibe. It's more off the beaten track than the inner-city beach clubs, and the vibe here is chilled and "real". Try the matjes-brötchen (matjes herring rolls), they're lovely, and I get told by Hamburg colleagues they are some of the best in town. A real bonus is that you get the nice evening sun here. read more

This is a traditional place in Hamburg which has been around forever. I've been here multiple times over the years but having just watched the EM final there last night, it was time to write something. It's basically a kiosk turned into a restaurant. It's still has the shabby flair but they've gone upmarket a bit adding things like wine, shrimp, salads to the menu. I don't know how little they used to serve way back when but it's no longer just beer and fries. Surprisingly enough, I had the beer and fried and they were really good. I haven't ever eaten anything else here and it's not gourmet or anywhere near it. If you are up for a classic beach club in Hamburg, live nearby and can get here easily (which is not the case when coming from the other side of town) and the sun is out or it's a warm evening, definitely stop in. Plus, as someone already wrote in the German section the crowd is also becoming a bit more upscale again. This place went a bit down-scale over the years but I believe management is doing it's best to get out of that hole and attract hipper people. If that's a good thing, I don't know! read more
