Beer garden at Lübbenau's Kleiner Hafen (small harbor), serving Gurkenwiener (pickle-stuffed sausages) and Hefeplinse (yeast pancakes), a popular break spot immediately after a Kahnfahrt punting boat tour.
Am Spreeschlößchen is a beer garden positioned right at Lübbenau's Kleiner Hafen (small harbor), one of two boat-departure points in town alongside the larger Großer Spreewaldhafen. It functions as a casual, mostly self-service outdoor spot rather than a formal restaurant, serving quick regional snacks designed to be eaten right after stepping off a Kahnfahrt punting tour. The standout item is Gurkenwiener, a sausage stuffed with Spreewaldgurken (the region's protected pickled gherkins), alongside Hefeplinse, a sweet yeast pancake served with fruit compote or sugar. Because it operates seasonally and outdoors, it is best visited between April and October when the punting season is in full swing; outside that window, hours are reduced or the beer garden may be closed entirely.
