Dattein, Harbor restaurant and café in Neuharlingersiel, Germany
Dattein is a restaurant and café located in a historic harbor building at the western side of Neuharlingersiel's port, accommodating 90 guests indoors, 25 on the terrace, and 30 in the beer garden. The venue serves food and drinks throughout the day in several distinct seating areas.
The venue opened on April 13, 2000 at 13:13, following extensive renovation of a harbor building over 300 years old during the winter of 1999-2000. The precise timing reflects a deliberate connection to local number symbolism.
The name comes from the Low German way of saying the number thirteen, reflecting local speech and the maritime traditions of this coastal region. Visitors experience a place where language and harbor life connect naturally.
The restaurant opens daily from morning until late night, offering seating in different areas - inside, on the terrace, or in the outdoor beer garden. Visitors who want to stay longer should know that the different sections create distinct atmospheres in each area.
The venue served as a filming location for German television productions, particularly the medical drama Doctor Martin and various shows by ZDF and NDR broadcasters. Visitors might sit at the same tables where scenes from these popular programs were shot.
