Reviews

Fantastic lunch

Visited the restaurant for lunch in the beautiful Christmas decorated rooms. We chose the "small" dishes, which all without exception surprised positively with lovely flavors and nice sizes. The prices are extremely reasonable in relation to quality and quantity. We hereby recommend and will come again!

Good food, good staff and food adapted to our wishes

We had a 3-course seasonal menu and also apple slices & mulled wine. The entire staff welcomed us and made sure we had a great afternoon and evening. Our wishes were taken into account, as we do not like fish, and we got super delicious dishes instead. A clear recommendation for everyone in Skagen and the surrounding island!
