Discover more about Vinøst wine bar & restaurant

Vinøst is more than just a wine bar—it's a distinctly Bornholmian culinary experience rooted in excellence, conviviality, and unpretentious Danish hospitality. Right on Svaneke’s postcard-perfect town square, the venue occupies a lovingly restored old house with timbered charm and an inviting interior that blends rustic comfort with Nordic minimalism. Scents from the open kitchen drift through the cozy dining room, tempting guests with ever-changing seasonal small plates prepared from Bornholm’s abundance of local produce and island-sourced seafood. Vinøst places equal emphasis on its thoughtfully curated wine selection, featuring many low-intervention and natural wines from Denmark and beyond. Knowledgeable staff frequently provide recommendations for pairings—look for well-loved producers and surprising, conversation-starting bottles. It's a place where foodies and oenophiles converse beneath exposed beams, as laughter spills out onto the small outdoor terrace on balmy evenings. Equally popular among Svaneke locals and summer visitors, Vinøst offers a menu that adapts with the season, from foraged greens to the freshest catch. Expect dishes like lightly pickled mackerel, new potatoes with housemade aioli, and refined versions of classic Danish comfort food. Ambiance is relaxed and communal, with a friendly buzz that intensifies during high season. Advance booking is strongly recommended, especially for dinner at weekends and during the island's lively summer months. Vinøst’s appeal is further elevated by its setting: Svaneke is one of Bornholm’s most picturesque towns, famed for its half-timbered houses, craft shops, and harbor views. Many guests linger after dinner for a stroll around the illuminated square, reflecting on a meal that captures the soulful essence of Bornholm’s contemporary food scene.
