Orankesee Terrassen

Located in Alt-Hohenschönhausen, directly by Lake Orankesee, you'll find one of Berlin's most beautiful waterside restaurants. The Orankesee Terrassen combines Mediterranean cuisine with lake views, a beer garden, and a tranquility rarely found in the city.

Orankesee Terrassen: Restaurant with a Real Lake View

A waterside excursion destination that doesn’t appear in every travel guide: Nestled in greenery, the restaurant is reached after a short walk and rewards visitors with expansive views of Lake Orankesee. This view can be enjoyed from inside the restaurant through large panoramic windows, from the terrace, and in summer from the beer garden under shady trees. Furthermore: because the restaurant is located directly on the lake and no road passes directly by, you can sit outside without traffic noise and almost forget that you are in a metropolis.

The establishment opens daily from 11:30 AM and offers space for up to 150 guests in its event rooms, with lake views maintained from several dining areas. Reservations are recommended, especially on warm weekends.

Orankesee Terrassen: Mediterranean Cuisine with Grill Classics

The menu at Orankesee Terrassen combines Mediterranean culinary tradition with regional German ingredients, offering both regional specialties and international dishes. The gastronomic focus is on hearty grilled cuisine: from pan-fried pike-perch to pork tenderloin skewers and grilled chicken breast fillets, usually served with fries and a fresh salad. For a sweet finish, coffee and homemade cakes are also available.

The dishes are freshly prepared by experienced chefs using selected products, and the establishment recommends high-quality wines from various countries to accompany them. This makes for a visit that goes far beyond a simple waterside excursion: Berlin bathing lake atmosphere, good wines, and grilled dishes all in one place in Hohenschönhausen.
