Welcome back to Le Rhin Bleu.
Since May 1st, 2026, we’re back – right on the Rhine, outdoors, under open skies. A new season of Mediterranean flavors, ice-cold drinks, and that unmistakable summer vibe you only find here.
Lunch with a view. Afterwork drinks in the golden sunset. Long summer evenings with friends that pass by far too quickly. That’s exactly what we’re here for.
Of course, we’re celebrating our seasonal highlights again: our Paella Evening, July 31st with a front-row view of the fireworks, and our legendary Fondue Week in September.
We’re looking forward to an unforgettable summer with you.
Reservations recommended.
Our waterfront tables are in high demand, especially on sunny days and during special event evenings. We highly recommend booking your table online in advance.
Good to know:
To ensure all guests can fully enjoy their time with us, dogs are unfortunately not allowed on board. Thank you for your understanding.
