Island eatery in the heart of Nordby
Jimmy’s Køkken sits on Hovedgaden, the main street that runs through Nordby, Fanø’s compact village hub. From the outside it looks every bit the classic Danish grill bar: bright signage, large menu boards and the steady comings and goings of locals and holidaymakers picking up takeaway boxes. The atmosphere is casual and unpretentious, more everyday hangout than destination restaurant. Step inside and you find a simple counter-service setup, where ordering is quick and straightforward. The focus is firmly on getting hot food to hungry people without fuss, which makes it a natural fit for days built around the beach, cycling the island or catching a later ferry back to the mainland.Pizza, grill and comforting classics
The menu leans heavily towards pizza, with a long list of combinations on thin, crisp bases that arrive generously topped and properly hot from the oven. Alongside the pizzas you will usually find burgers, pita with various fillings, fries and other familiar fast-food staples, offering something easy for mixed groups and families. Portions tend to be hearty, with an emphasis on value and straightforward flavours rather than elaborate plating. It is the kind of place where you can feed a group quickly, share a couple of pizzas at a table or take food away to enjoy on the harbourfront or back at your accommodation.Friendly service and local rhythm
Behind the counter, service is generally brisk and down-to-earth, with staff switching comfortably between Danish, English and often German to handle orders from a mix of islanders and visitors. During busy periods you may notice a lively, slightly hectic rhythm as phone orders and walk-ins are juggled, while quieter shoulder seasons can feel more relaxed and chatty. Opening hours are broadly consistent, with lunchtime through evening service, but the exact pattern can shift with the seasons and local demand. It is worth checking the latest details before planning a late meal, especially outside the main summer months, as Fanø’s overall dining scene tends to follow the island’s visitor flow.Part of everyday life on Fanø
Jimmy’s Køkken plays a practical role in Nordby’s daily life, filling the gap between convenience food and sit-down restaurants. For many visitors it becomes the default option after long walks in the dunes, a day of wind on the beach or an evening exploring the island’s narrow streets and thatched houses. Its central location on Hovedgaden means it slots naturally into a day exploring the village: you might browse nearby shops, stroll to the harbour to watch the ferries and seals, then circle back here for an unfussy meal. It is not about ceremony, but about hot food, quick service and a reliable spot to recharge.Practical details for a smooth visit
Inside seating is limited and geared to short visits rather than long stays, so be prepared for a functional space rather than a lingering, candlelit setting. Takeaway is an integral part of the operation, and many guests opt to carry their food out into the village or back to holiday homes. Payment options are oriented around local methods; Danish cards and MobilePay are typically accepted, while foreign payment options can vary. Because this is a straightforward, budget-friendly place, it pairs well with other experiences on Fanø, whether you are here for a day trip or a longer stay, and serves as a convenient anchor for mealtimes during your time on the island.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
