Der Spieker

About

Spieker is a classic Bavarian‑style restaurant tucked in the picturesque town of Bad Zwischenahn on the shores of the Zwischenahner Meer. From the moment you step into the rustic, timber‑laden building you are enveloped in the warm ambience of an old German farmhouse, complete with exposed wooden beams, bright brick walls, and a charming stone‑paved floor. Guests can enjoy a generous selection of regional specialties, ranging from freshly‑caught eel and traditional Ammerlander‑style local stews to hearty salads and a welcome selection of German beers in the spacious beer garden beneath ancient fruit trees. The menu is a celebration of local ingredients and authentic flavors—think robust herring, fresh fish, and homemade sausages served with homemade breads and cheeses. Whether you dine indoor or al fresco, the attentive staff, dressed in traditional Ammerlander attire, are ready to take you on a culinary journey through the local countryside. With opening hours from 11:00 AM to 10:30 PM every day, Spieker is an ideal stop for both casual lunches and relaxed dinners, offering an approachable price point (around €19 per person) and a charming, family‑friendly atmosphere for all ages.
