Lido Hafen

The Lido lies in the heart of the Media Harbour, the quarter with Frank Gehry's spectacular architecture and the leaning towers. The Mediterranean cuisine relies on fresh fish, pasta and light summery dishes, served with a view of the harbour basin. The large terrace right by the water is one of the loveliest spots in the harbour. A stylish setting, a good wine selection and a relaxed flair make the Lido a popular meeting point for balmy evenings.

Mediterranean Cuisine

The Lido runs a Mediterranean menu with fresh fish, homemade pasta and light summery dishes that suit the waterside location. Italian and Southern European influences shape the offering, which ranges from light starters to hearty main courses. A good wine selection complements the dishes and underlines the indulgent, relaxed character of the house.

A Terrace by the Harbour Basin

The centrepiece is the large terrace right by the water, which opens up the view of the harbour basin and is among the loveliest spots in the Media Harbour. On balmy evenings it is the most sought-after seat in the house. Indoors, a stylish setting ensures pleasant hours even in cooler weather, so the Lido works all year round.

In the Media Harbour

The Lido lies in the Media Harbour in the district of Unterbilk, known for the spectacular architecture of Frank Gehry and the striking leaning towers. A visit combines well with a stroll through the unusual quarter. As the terrace is much in demand in good weather, a reservation is advisable, especially at weekends and on summer evenings.
