A cozy, no-frills sports pub in central Silkeborg, where big screens, cold beer and local chatter turn every match day into a shared living room.
Sportspubben Målet is a cozy, low-key sports pub on Bindslevs Plads in central Silkeborg, combining the feel of a classic Danish brown bar with wall-to-wall live sport.

Local tips
- Arrive 30–45 minutes before major football or handball kick-offs if you want a good view of a screen without squeezing in at the last minute.
- Bring a contactless card; bar payments are quickest that way and help you get served faster during busy match breaks.
- For a quieter experience, visit on weekday afternoons when the pub feels more like a relaxed local bar than a match-day venue.
- If you follow a specific league or team, check upcoming fixture lists in advance and plan your visit around key games to soak up the best atmosphere.

Discover more about Sportspubben Målet
A casual hub in the heart of Silkeborg
Sportspubben Målet sits just off Silkeborg’s central square, a ground-floor corner pub where soft light spills from big windows onto Bindslevs Plads. Inside, you step into a compact, wood-accented room that immediately feels like a neighborhood hangout rather than a glossy chain bar. The low ceiling, worn tables and familiar bar counter give it the unpretentious charm of a classic Danish pub, with sports paraphernalia and team colors setting the tone. The layout is simple and sociable: a long bar flanked by high stools, small tables clustered around columns, and a few coveted window seats overlooking the square. It is the kind of place where you can slide in on your own for a quiet afternoon beer or join a group for a big evening match without feeling out of place.Sports on every wall
True to its name, the pub is built around live sport. Multiple large screens are placed so that almost every seat has a clear view, whether the focus is European football, Danish Superliga, handball championships or major international tournaments. On big match days the atmosphere ramps up, with jerseys, scarves and spontaneous commentary flying back and forth across the room. Between major fixtures, the mood softens into background action: a Premier League replay here, cycling or tennis there, providing a steady hum of movement and color. It works just as well for committed fans following every minute as for visitors who simply enjoy the energy of a game on in the background while they talk over a drink.Beers, simple snacks and easy prices
The bar menu leans into straightforward pub comfort rather than high-concept cocktails. Expect familiar draft lagers, bottled beers, basic spirits-and-mixers and the occasional seasonal special. Prices are comparatively gentle for central Silkeborg, making it an accessible choice for an after-work pint, a pre-dinner drink or an unplanned evening that stretches a little longer than expected. Food is modest, usually in the form of bar snacks and light bites that are easy to eat with a game on: think chips, nuts or a simple plate to share. The focus remains firmly on the social side of drinking and watching sport, rather than on elaborate dining.Everyday rhythms and peak moments
During the day, Sportspubben Målet tends to feel laid-back, with locals dropping in for a quiet beer, a chat at the counter or a break from shopping and errands in the streets around the square. As the afternoon turns into early evening—especially toward the end of the workday—the bar gradually fills and conversations get louder, matching the build-up to any evening kick-off. On Friday and Saturday nights, and whenever a big match or tournament is on, the energy rises noticeably. Expect clusters of friends, lively reactions to key moments on screen and that distinctive shared tension before a penalty or final whistle. Once the games finish, the mood often shifts into more general bar chatter and music, keeping the space animated well past midnight on weekends.A sociable stop in a lakeside town
One of the pub’s strengths is its location. From the bar’s windows you look out toward the open space of Bindslevs Plads, with Silkeborg’s lakes and harborside paths only a short walk away. It makes a natural pause point between sightseeing on the water, walking the pedestrian spine of the town and exploring the broader Silkeborg area. For solo travelers, the bar’s counter seating and compact size make it easy to find a spot and feel part of the room without effort. Groups of friends will appreciate the straightforward setup, where it is simple to push a few tables together and settle in for a full match. It is casual, central and familiar—a small slice of local everyday life framed by the glow of match day screens.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
