Restaurants, cafes and bakeries in Rab

Lindi's Schlemmerstube is a family restaurant on Zum Großteich in Thiendorf, centred on freshly prepared German home cooking. The kitchen describes hands-on preparation, from peeling potatoes to cutting vegetables, with predominantly regional products. Traditional, substantial recipes are the starting point, while a changing seasonal card adds variation during the year. The main dining room accommodates up to fifty people and is used for both ordinary meals and private celebrations. There is also a planted beer garden for eating and drinking outdoors in suitable weather. These offer two different settings for the same country-restaurant visit: a table inside with family or friends, or an outdoor meal when the season allows. Alongside the seasonal food menu, the restaurant publishes an ice-cream selection for anyone wanting a sweet finish. It also runs a separate catering service during the cooler part of the year. If you are organising a larger gathering, speak to the team about whether you need a restaurant table, a private celebration or off-site food service, since those are different arrangements. Opening varies by day: Wednesday and Thursday are evening service, with earlier starts from Friday to Sunday. Monday and Tuesday are closed, and the restaurant also closes on the second Sunday of the month and during published holiday periods. Telephone ahead to confirm your date and reserve. The direct address is 14 Zum Großteich, rather than the main Kamenzer Straße through the village.

Gasthof Thiendorf, also called Zum treuen Freund, is a country inn on Kamenzer Straße with a menu built around familiar German meals. It is a close option for visitors staying around Schönfeld who want a seated meal in a neighbouring village. The business also operates a pension, but the restaurant has its own published menu and opening schedule. The selection covers both substantial dinners and simpler dishes. Schnitzel appears with several accompaniments, alongside roast pork, beef roulade with red cabbage, game and filled chicken breast. For a smaller or less formal meal, the menu includes Strammer Max, fried eggs with potatoes and Bauernfrühstück. Baked Camembert and Würzfleisch are listed among the starters. Fish choices include pollock and pike-perch with dill sauce and parsley potatoes. Children have a separate chicken-and-fries option, and the menu says that several alternative side dishes can be requested. Ask about the current availability of individual dishes, particularly game or asparagus, rather than assuming every seasonal ingredient is served throughout the year. The weekly timetable varies noticeably: Tuesday is evening only, Wednesday to Friday has separate lunch and dinner periods, and Saturday is listed for lunch. Monday is closed. The address is 10 Kamenzer Straße; telephone or email the inn to confirm your intended meal time before travelling, especially for a weekend evening.

Lindenhof Restaurant

Kamenzer Straße 11, 01561 Thiendorf

+49 3524 88420

The Lindenhof in Thiendorf explicitly welcomes restaurant guests who are not staying at its hotel. Its cooking focuses on regional dishes and German home cooking, with a stated range of vegetarian options as well. That makes it a practical address to consider for a mixed group rather than a restaurant reserved for overnight residents. The main dining room seats around ninety people, while the garden terrace has space for about thirty in suitable weather. A smaller breakfast room can also be used for functions. Children are catered for with appropriate food, high chairs and a play corner, so families can ask the restaurant about the seating arrangement that will work best for their visit. Celebrations form another part of the business. The team can discuss menus or buffets and help organise tables and decorations for a birthday, wedding or other gathering. Larger bookings outside normal opening hours are possible by arrangement. A regular dinner and a private function should therefore be planned directly with the restaurant rather than treated as interchangeable reservations. Lindenhof is at 11 Kamenzer Straße, close to Schönfeld Castle. Its dining hours are more limited than the hotel's reception hours: Monday to Thursday service begins at 16:00, while Friday to Sunday is by arrangement. Call or email before setting out, especially for a weekend visit, to confirm the meal, current menu and availability of a garden table.

Großraschützer Straße 1, 01558 Großenhain

+49 3522 5297744

Der Bergkeller is a restaurant in Großenhain's Zschieschen area, run by Stephan Seurig. Its kitchen describes its approach as modern and creative while remaining grounded in familiar cooking. Fresh seasonal ingredients take priority, with regional products used where possible. A large kitchen window lets diners see some of the preparation, adding a working-kitchen element to the dining room rather than keeping the whole process out of sight. The restaurant has about fifty seats. A dividing gate allows part of the room to be separated for a smaller gathering of up to thirty people, so it can serve both an ordinary meal and a more private occasion. For a group, ask which arrangement is available and whether the team recommends a set format for your date. Access is another useful detail: the operator states that the building is wheelchair accessible, with the entrance at the rear. Mention any access requirements when reserving so the team can explain the approach and prepare the appropriate table. The venue also runs scheduled events and occasional Sunday brunches, which require their own advance booking. Normal opening is Monday to Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 11:30 to 22:00, with Thursday and Sunday closed. Kitchen closing can depend on guest numbers. The address is 1 Großraschützer Straße; telephone or email the restaurant to reserve and ask about the current seasonal dishes before arriving late in the evening.

Franz-Schubert-Allee 2, 01558 Großenhain

+49 3522 529410

Osteria Vecchie Mura offers an Italian alternative in Großenhain, with pizza, pasta, poultry and fish sharing the menu. Its address on Franz-Schubert-Allee is useful for a meal combined with time in the town. The restaurant accepts bookings for anything from a table for two to a larger family gathering, and asks guests to arrange reservations by telephone. Pizza is a clear part of the offer. The published list includes Margherita, salami and mushroom versions, alongside a calzone filled with ham, mushrooms and egg. Other combinations bring stronger cheeses or spicy salami into the selection. There are also pasta dishes and more substantial main courses, so the table does not need to agree on pizza before choosing this address. The Osteria can accommodate birthday, wedding, company and seasonal celebrations by arrangement. For a larger group, discuss the format directly rather than assuming the normal à la carte service will meet every requirement. The same call is useful for checking ingredients or asking about the current house recommendations. Tuesday and Wednesday service begins in the late afternoon. From Thursday to Sunday there are separate lunch and dinner windows, with a break between them; Monday is normally closed, although the restaurant advertises opening on public-holiday Mondays. Find it at 2 Franz-Schubert-Allee and confirm the date and table size when reserving, especially if your visit falls on a holiday.

La Vela Ristorante Pizzeria

Villasimius · Italian · Pizza · Fish and seafood

Example photo of the cuisine — not photographed at this venue Marcelo Oliveira Santana / Pexels

Via degli Oleandri 12, 09049 Villasimius

+393928780232

Mon–Fri 11:00–15:00, 19:00–23:30; Sat–Sun 11:00–15:00, 19:00–24:00

La Vela sits inside the Marina di Villasimius, the tourist port on Via degli Oleandri, with a terrace that looks straight over the moored sailboats and, in the evening, the sunset behind the harbor. Inside there is a climate-controlled dining room for hot afternoons or windy nights. The menu has two halves. One is fish: the kitchen buys daily from local markets and fishermen along the south Sardinian coast, so the board changes with what came in, typically tuna, sea bream, squid, mussels, shellfish and crustaceans, served raw, grilled or fried, with homemade pasta such as fregola with seafood and spaghetti allo scoglio. The other half is pizza from a wood-fired oven, made with Italian flours and a long-fermented dough. Olive oil, cheeses and wines come from Sardinian producers; for dessert there are seadas and tiramisu, and a slow-cooked suckling pig in cannonau reduction covers the meat side. The restaurant opens every day for lunch from 11:00 to 15:00 and for dinner from 19:00, closing at 23:30 on weekdays and midnight on Saturday and Sunday. Tables can be booked online through the link on its website or by phone at +39 392 8780232, and in July and August the terrace seats are the first to go. Getting there from a rental in the town center is about 3 km on foot; most families drive, and in summer a shuttle runs between the port, the town and the main beaches every twenty minutes or so. There is free parking at the marina, and the beach at Porto Giunco, with its shallow water for small children, is close to the port. Because it is a pizzeria as well as a fish restaurant, a mixed group with picky eaters is easy to seat.

Località Campus, 09049 Villasimius

+39070798021

Mon–Sun 11:00–22:00

Il Miraggio has stood on Campus beach since 1971, when Raffaele Cogoni and his wife Maria built it as a wooden house with a reed roof. Their daughter Ignazia now runs the dining room with her own children, and Antonio heads the kitchen. The building is still all wood inside and out, with 130 seats indoors and around 250 outside; in the warm months tables are set on the terrace and directly on the sand, about 30 meters from the water, looking across Porto sa Ruxi toward Capo Carbonara and the Isola dei Cavoli. The house speciality is cooking over the large open grill, which sits in view of the guests. Seafood comes in as white fish, soup fish, scampi, prawns, lobster, clams, mussels, oysters, squid and octopus; the menu includes fish soup, fregola with sea-anemone sauce, spaghetti with clams or with sea urchin, black ravioli filled with grouper, and a fisherman's risotto. Meat eaters get malloreddus with sausage and saffron, roast suckling pig and lamb, and potatoes peeled and fried to order. Desserts are seadas, fried ravioli with honey and ricotta, and tiramisu. Sardinian cannonau, vermentino, nuragus and malvasia share the list with a few international labels, and gluten-free dishes are available. For a family staying in a rental in Villasimius, the beach and the restaurant are one outing: Campus lies about 3 km west of the town center on the coast road toward Cagliari, roughly 40 minutes from the city. Turn off the SP17 at km 34.7 beside the Hotel Cormoran; a large parking area sits right at the beach. Book by phone in summer, especially for a front-row table at sunset. The house also hosts beach weddings and private parties from May to September, and food can be ordered to take away.

Via del Mare 104, 09049 Villasimius

+39070791326

Mon, Wed–Sun 06:30–20:30

La Perla is the pastry shop and café run under the name of Mercedes Cadoni at Via del Mare 104-106, on the road that leads from the center of Villasimius down toward the marina. It opens at 6:30 in the morning, six days a week, and stays closed on Tuesdays. The counter holds what an Italian pasticceria should: cornetti and cream-filled shells for breakfast, mignon pastries, fruit tartlets, single-portion desserts, semifreddi and Sicilian cannoli, plus savory pizzette and focaccia. The reason to come here rather than to any bar, though, is the Sardinian sweets made in-house: gueffus, pabassinas, pardulas, pane 'e saba and amaretti, the biscuits and small cakes that families on the island bake for feast days. All of it is baked on the premises, and cakes for birthdays, weddings and other celebrations can be ordered, including lactose-free versions. For a family staying in a vacation rental nearby, La Perla works as the morning routine: coffee and pastries at one of the tables outside or at the counter, then a tray of sweets to take back to the house. Around midday it also serves a light lunch of large salads and a tagliere of cured meats and cheese, and the shop does catering for parties held in a rented villa. There is parking next door, cards are accepted, and the marina and the beaches beyond are a short drive down the same road. Table service costs a little more than standing at the bar. Phone orders for cakes go to +39 070 791326.

Via Pallaresus 16, 09049 Villasimius

+39070792032

Mon–Sun 11:00–22:00

Le Anfore is the restaurant of the family-owned Hotel Le Anfore, a three-star house with 20 rooms furnished in wood, wrought iron and Sardinian fabrics, on Via Pallaresus at the edge of the town. The restaurant is open to anyone, not just hotel guests, for lunch and dinner. The kitchen works with Sardinian and Mediterranean recipes built on fresh local fish and meat and other regional produce, with antipasti, pasta and mains that change with what the market brings. There are two places to sit: an air-conditioned dining room with about 160 seats, and, in the summer months, a broad veranda opening onto a garden full of flowers. That garden also serves for aperitivo in spring, and the house takes wedding banquets and receptions for up to 220 guests, which tells you the kitchen is used to feeding large tables at once. For families in a vacation rental nearby, this is the practical choice when nobody wants to hunt for a parking space: the hotel has a large lot of its own inside the grounds, and cards are accepted. The town center with its shops and evening passeggiata is within easy reach, while the beaches and the marina lie roughly two kilometers away by car. Tables can be reserved by phone at +39 070 792032, which is worth doing on summer evenings when the veranda fills with hotel guests first. The full menu is published online through a link on the restaurant's site, so you can check the day's dishes before you set off. If you are traveling with a larger family group, the size of the room means a table for ten is not a problem.

+393311810817

Mon–Thu 19:30–23:00; Fri–Sun 12:30–14:30, 19:30–23:00

Sa Morisca takes its name from the Sardinian word for the prickly pear. It has been run by the same family since 2003 under the arcades at the end of Via del Mare, at Via Matteotti 7-9, right in the center of Villasimius. The room is fitted out in stone and wood with plants and warm lighting, and there is a terrace and a small garden for eating outside. The kitchen does fresh fish from local waters, Sardinian dishes such as culurgiones, spaghetti with clams and bottarga, fregula, tuna tataki and beef fillet in cannonau, plus the day's catch grilled and priced by weight. Pizzas come from a wood-fired oven, with classics alongside house pizzas named after local beaches like Giunco and Is Traias. What sets the place apart for coeliac guests is its certification by the Italian Coeliac Association: gluten-free pizzas are baked in dedicated ovens, most of the menu can be ordered without gluten, and there is a gluten-free beer and Sardinian craft beers on the list, along with gin and tonics built on Sardinian gins. For a family in a rental, this is the easy evening in town: the restaurant serves dinner every day from 19:30 to 23:00, lunch only on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 12:30 to 14:30, and the same hours apply year round. The menu has its own children's section with plain pasta, a burger and a cutlet. Reservations are taken by phone at +39 331 1810817 or by email, and pizzas can be ordered to take back to the house. Note the cover charge on the menu and the small surcharge for a gluten-free base. The full menu with prices is published on the restaurant's website.

Strada Iancu Gonțea 189, 507028 Șimon

+40752799399

Brandeberg Restaurant is in Șimon, a village in the Bran area, within a guesthouse inspired by Austrian Tyrol. Its mountain setting and timber-and-alpine character fit a longer lunch or dinner after exploring the surrounding countryside. The address is on Strada Iancu Gonțea, south of central Bran. The menu combines Romanian dishes with Austrian and Bavarian influences. Viennese-style schnitzel, roast duck with red cabbage and slow-cooked meats sit alongside stuffed cabbage, polenta dishes and regional soups. Fish choices include trout, sea bass and grilled salmon. The variety allows a table to mix a traditional Romanian meal with an alpine-style main course. Desserts include apple strudel, pancakes and sweet cheese dumplings with sour cream and jam. The operator publishes an English menu with ingredient and allergen notes, making it easier to check the options before arriving. Soup service has a shorter daily window than the restaurant's full opening hours, so do not assume every section remains available late in the evening. Brandeberg asks diners to call on the morning of the day they want to visit; it does not accept table reservations from one day to the next. It also offers takeaway but explicitly says it does not deliver. Confirm your arrival time and the kitchen's last orders, which vary by day. If you are coming only for a meal, tell reception that you need a restaurant table rather than an overnight booking.
