Cafe kaffekop Fredericia

22/02/2025: Our first visit to Doktor Herman in Fredericia. It was a bit difficult to find the door, as the place also functions as a coffee shop during the day, but we managed! Cozy atmosphere and a welcoming welcome at the entrance. We were the first guests – apparently it is a place that people mainly visit after 10 pm – but we took the chance as the only ones. The interior is relaxed, but could easily be taken up a few octaves or given a little update if the ambition is to be more than a wine and cocktail bar in the province. The music was a good mix, the staff young and committed with a clear passion for the place – the entrepreneurial dream is blooming with them. The wine list was manageable. We chose two glasses of French Viognier, which was served well-tempered and with a little knowledge from the staff. Lovely wine with apricot notes. After that we ordered a tapas board and a couple of warm dishes. Surprisingly fine selection, where everything was well-tempered and offered many good elements: two types of cheese, stuffed peppers, three types of charcuterie, pestos, pickled onions and warm bread with a good crust. The warm dishes consisted of asparagus with air-dried ham and sumptuous bruschettas – truly delicious food. The service was attentive, and the atmosphere pleasant. However, the salted butter could have been replaced with a good olive oil, which would have complimented the antipasti-inspired tapas board better. A selection of olives – preferably with calamari olives for their aromatic and salty taste – would also have been a welcome addition. All in all, a lovely experience. We will be back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
