The story
Dining at the Museumsschiff Rickmer Rickmers in Hamburg begins below deck aboard a preserved nineteenth century sailing ship. The venue specializes in Hamburg traditional cuisine and recently received a Schlemmer Atlas award for 2026. Guests explore a compact dining room framed by original timber structures and low ceilings that preserve the vessel’s industrial history. This atmospheric setting grounds every service in maritime heritage rather than contemporary decor trends.
The kitchen builds its menu around established Hamburg culinary traditions that emphasize local produce and time honored preparation methods. Chefs focus on straightforward techniques that highlight ingredient quality without relying on complex garnishes or heavy sauces. Patrons consistently receive balanced plates that reflect regional cooking standards and seasonal availability. The brigade maintains these expectations through rigorous sourcing and disciplined execution in the galley.
Separate club rooms extend the seating capacity beyond the main cabin and provide flexible arrangements for private functions. These compartments preserve the ship’s structural bones while offering adaptable layouts for seated dinners or cocktail receptions. Organizers can secure the entire watercraft or book individual sections to match their guest list size. The combination of historic architecture and reliable service makes the space suitable for professional meetings and milestone celebrations alike.
