Katerschmaus: Spree Terrace on the Holzmarkt
Katerschmaus is located on the Holzmarkt grounds directly on the Spree, and that’s precisely what makes it interesting for families. The terrace extends right to the water, excursion boats pass by, and the surrounding area is one of the few spots in Friedrichshain where children can simply run free.
Modern European cuisine is served, with grilled meat and fish being the main focus. It’s not a children’s menu restaurant, but the kitchen accommodates requests, and those who come with older children can enjoy a relaxed evening by the water.
The surrounding Holzmarkt grounds
The area includes a children’s play area, workshops, and the Mörchenpark, a community garden with beds and animals. So, between dinner and dessert, you can take a stroll without leaving the premises.
It’s open in the evenings, and reservations are recommended on weekends. Those who come during the day will find several smaller eateries and regular markets on the Holzmarkt in summer.
