Alte Überfahrt.

Perched on the edge of the Havel in a listed fin-de-siècle building, Alte Überfahrt bridges the gap between historic charm and modern precision. Chef Thomas Hübner’s kitchen is dictated by the seasons, sourcing produce from the restaurant’s own garden in Petzow and utilizing local lake fish prepared with the meticulous ike-jime method. While the menu highlights creative vegetable compositions and regional meats, the execution remains clean and structured. The dining room is designed to keep the water in focus, though the best seats are on the summer terrace under the shade of ancient trees. Managed by owner Patrick Schwatke, the service is personal rather than stiff, making this a polished but grounded destination for those seeking high-level cooking in the Brandenburg lakeland.
