The story
Landgasthof Haby-Krog in Eckernförde blends regional country cuisine with modern Mediterranean techniques across two distinct menus. The Aust family introduced this dual format in June 2023, pairing timeless classics with a monthly rotating selection driven by the freshest harvest. Vegetables arrive daily from nearby organic farms, while dried herbs from their own garden finish nearly every plate. This steady focus on local supply chains keeps the Mediterranean cooking grounded in everyday ingredients rather than trends.
Visitors find the dining room anchored by an actual fireplace, a detail that earned the venue a 1.5 ladle rating from the Schlemmer Atlas guide. Antique furniture lines the walls alongside exhibition pieces that rotate throughout the year. The layout maintains a traditional pub atmosphere where conversations carry easily over clinking glasses. Guests settle into wooden chairs while waiting for meals prepared with the same care found in countryside kitchens across Schleswig-Holstein.
Warmer months push service outdoors onto a sunlit terrace shaded by a mature linden tree. Beach chairs sit ready for diners who prefer to eat while watching the breeze move through the surrounding fields. The kitchen prepares its own pralines to accompany coffee or replace a formal dessert course. Every seasonal shift brings new combinations to the monthly menu, ensuring the Mediterranean cooking stays tied to what grows locally.
