Cafe Elbterrassen

With a view of the ships

Located right on the Elbe, the Café Elbterrassen offers a wonderful view of the Museumshafen Övelgönne.

As the name indicates, guests at Café Elbterrassen are looking directly across to the Museumshafen Övelgönne and the Elbe with its myriad of container ships and cruise liners.

Always the right address

In summer guests can enjoy the deckchairs and can sun-bathe on the terrace. In bad weather, radiant heaters and rugs are provided to keep guests warm. If anyone does ever feel too cold, they can retreat to a comfortable seat in the plush and maritime-themed interior. Café Elbterrassen offers a wide range of meals, ranging from small snacks, pasta and schnitzel to coffee and cake. The fish dishes also change every day. All dishes here are moderately priced.

CITY AREA PORTRAIT Blankenese & Elbe outskirts

The former fishing and seamen's village of Blankenese is situated directly on the Elbe. It is the perfect starting point for hopping on a sailing boat or on the Elbe ferry, or for taking long walks along the shore. Another highlight is a visit to the Treppenviertel (German for staircase quartier) with a spectacular view of the lighthouse and the Falkenstein shore.

For the love of ice cream Luicella's Ice Cream

At Luicella's, pure joie de vivre is served in a cup. The two founders of Luicella's Ice Cream fulfilled their dream of opening their own ice cream parlor in St. Pauli in 2013 - and this dream continues to grow. Hamburg now has ten Luicella's ice cream parlors, the latest of which opened in Westfield Überseequartier in April 2025.
