Restaurant Varmestuen Kerteminde

A real local sort of living room with pub status. As soon as someone walks in, you immediately get the feeling that you're sitting in someone's regular spot ;-) Almost everyone is sitting with a bottle of beer *and* a cigarette!! It turns out you are officially allowed to smoke there. Inside, too. And it is done a lot. So, very 'old-fashioned stifling'. By the way, the fact that smoking is allowed is clearly indicated outside, but I missed those black signs. My mistake :-) I had a large draft beer and a tonic: that cost almost 13 euros... so veeeery pricey! We didn't eat there. I didn't exactly get the impression that it was a restaurant either.

A very good, unpretentious little restaurant where you can enjoy superb fish, smoked on-site. An unusual place where you might even see regular customers smoking (not fish 😂) inside. The owner gives a very warm welcome and prepares her dishes with passion. Highly recommended.

Friendly staff and guests gave us seating.

Local atmosphere. Very good and inexpensive, which is rare in Denmark. Thank you.

I got their fish fillet which was great, but when I saw the others getting "sol over kerteminde" (sun over gudhjem) I became envious, the herring had just come from the smokehouse 1 hour before. 🙂
