Whether it’s plaice and North Sea shrimp on the coast in spring, fresh asparagus and strawberries straight from the countryside, apples and cherries from the Altes Land in summer, or kale and Pinkel sausage during the cold season – the menus follow the rhythm of the seasons. In Niedersachsen, there’s great food to enjoy year-round. Farmers’ markets, farm shops and local restaurants invite you to enjoy the region’s culinary highlights in their most authentic form.

The leaves must steep properly, the rock sugar must crack when poured over, the spoonful of cream must form little peaks – then it's time to pause, enjoy and sip. In tea rooms, guests can enjoy a cosy, traditional tea time, as they can in the tea museums in Norden or Leer.
