Discover more about Schou's Restaurant
A local Falster institution by the sea
Schou’s Restaurant sits in the heart of Marielyst, the laid-back seaside resort on the south coast of Falster. The low, functional building is not flashy, but it has the reassuring look of a place that has been feeding holidaymakers and locals for years. Just inland from one of Denmark’s most beloved sandy beaches, it naturally draws in sun-seekers drifting up from the dunes in search of something more substantial than an ice cream. Inside, the mood is informal and unpretentious. Think sturdy tables, practical chairs and a bustle of families, couples and groups of friends. It feels more like a community dining room than a stage for culinary spectacle, a place where the point is to eat well, fill up and get back to enjoying the coast.Danish comfort food at generous scale
The kitchen at Schou’s is firmly rooted in classic Danish fare. You will find schnitzel, steaks, pork dishes and other meat-focused plates drawing directly on the in-house butcher’s counter next door. Portions tend to be generous, with meat as the clear star and familiar sides such as potatoes, rich sauces and simple salads in supporting roles. This is the kind of menu that suits a long beach day: robust, savoury and comforting rather than experimental. There is usually something for most tastes, from straightforward children’s options to hearty plates that will keep hungry adults satisfied well into the evening back at the summer house.Butcher’s shop and takeaway under one roof
One of the things that sets Schou’s apart is its combination of restaurant, butcher and takeaway. The butcher’s counter offers a wide selection of cuts for the grill, marinated specialties and sausages, making it a go-to stop for anyone planning a barbecue at their holiday home. The focus on meat means you can see the raw ingredients before you later encounter them on the plate. The takeaway side is just as important. Here you can order many of the same dishes in a more casual format, ideal if you prefer to eat on your terrace, at the beach, or simply do not feel like sitting down for a full restaurant meal. On busy summer days the stream of people collecting bags and trays of food is part of the atmosphere.Seasonal rhythms and special buffets
Schou’s follows the rhythm of Danish holidays, with particular energy around summer, Easter and Christmas. At various times of year the restaurant puts on themed buffets, such as traditional Easter or Christmas spreads featuring a wide range of hot and cold classics. These buffet services reflect the place’s roots in catering and large gatherings: long tables, heaping platters and the chance to try many dishes in one sitting. Outside peak periods the opening hours narrow, often focusing on weekend lunch in the restaurant, while the butcher and takeaway remain a reliable presence for everyday meals. It is worth checking current hours before planning a visit, as they can shift with the season and local events.Easygoing stop on a Marielyst holiday
For most travellers, Schou’s fits naturally into a Marielyst stay rather than acting as a destination in its own right. It is the sort of place you wander into after a windy walk on the beach or drop by on the way back from a day trip around Lolland-Falster. The casual service, straightforward setting and family-friendly vibe make it easy to arrive in flip-flops and sandy clothes. What it offers, above all, is convenience wrapped in local flavour: the ability to pick up quality meat, order a hot meal to go, or sit down for a solid Danish lunch without leaving the resort area. In a town geared towards relaxed holidays, Schou’s functions as a dependable anchor for hungry days by the Baltic Sea.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
