Carlos, Portuguese restaurant in Schwerte, Germany
Carlos is a Portuguese restaurant in a converted historic building called Haus Kreinberg with a full-scale interior pirate ship that serves as the dining space. The ship features two accessible decks, and the surrounding area includes replica buildings and galleries that extend the maritime theme throughout.
The restaurant draws on authentic maritime designs from the 17th century, incorporating ship plans and navigational elements throughout the dining areas. This historical inspiration shapes the entire concept of the space.
The Couto family prepares Portuguese dishes using traditional methods they brought from their home country. This keeps their culinary heritage alive while diners experience authentic flavors in an unconventional setting.
The restaurant is located at Lichtendorfer Strasse 5 and opens from Tuesday through Sunday starting at 17:00. Making a reservation beforehand is advisable to secure your table.
The ship was built entirely indoors and serves as the central structure creating separate dining zones. This approach transforms the meal into an experience you would typically only find in amusement parks.
