Discover more about Bar' Rolig
A casual living room in the heart of Horsens
Bar’ Rolig sits on Graven in central Horsens, surrounded by narrow streets and historic facades that give the bar an old-town charm before you even step inside. Once through the door, the atmosphere shifts from city bustle to something more like a shared living room: low-key lighting, clusters of tables and sofas, and a mix of music that sets a sociable, unforced mood. The bar feels intentionally unfussy. Exposed details, simple furniture and chalkboard-style menus keep the focus on people rather than décor. It is the sort of place where regulars know where they like to sit and newcomers blend in quickly, helped by the open layout and the natural flow between the different activity zones.Games, screens and easy competition
What sets Bar’ Rolig apart is the breadth of things to do beyond just ordering a drink. Pool tables claim a central spot, with the gentle clack of balls a constant backdrop to conversation. Darts boards draw small crowds as friends take turns at the oche, while a table tennis setup adds a faster-paced option for those wanting to move around between rounds. For something more relaxed, shelves of classic board games and card decks invite long, chatty sessions. A Playstation station offers a different kind of friendly rivalry, especially later in the evening when groups gather around the screen. Televisions typically show live sport, turning key matches into communal viewing events where guests cheer together from bar stools and sofas.Drinks and value-focused menus
The drinks menu leans toward accessibility: draft beer, bottled brews, simple wines and a solid range of mixed drinks form the backbone of the offering. Colourful cocktails and shots appear on the list, often grouped into sets that suit sharing with friends. Prices are deliberately moderate by Danish standards, encouraging longer stays and multiple rounds rather than quick visits. Non-alcoholic options, from soft drinks to simpler mocktail-style mixes, ensure that everyone in a group can find something that fits their taste. The overall impression is of a bar designed for comfort and value rather than luxury, making it an easy choice for students, after-work meetups or a low-pressure first stop on a bigger night out.Rhythm of the evening in a compact space
Bar’ Rolig is compact but cleverly divided, with corners that feel almost private even when the bar is busy. Earlier in the opening hours, the mood tends to be calmer, with small groups chatting over games and sport quietly playing in the background. As the evening gets later, the energy builds, conversations grow louder and the games areas take on a more competitive, party-like feel. Because the layout is straightforward, it is easy to drift between the bar counter, seating areas and activity zones. This creates a natural rhythm to a visit: start with a drink at the bar, move to a pool table or board game, then settle back into a sofa area as the night stretches on.Local hangout with a Horsens flavour
Above all, Bar’ Rolig functions as a neighbourhood hangout. Its city-centre location draws a cross-section of Horsens life: students, young professionals, small groups of friends and occasional pre- or post-event gatherings heading to or from other venues in town. Danish and international guests mix easily, united by the casual tone and game-focused setup. The bar’s personality lies in its blend of homely comforts and classic pub entertainment. It is not about cutting-edge cocktails or high design; instead, it offers the simple pleasures of a cold drink, a good match on the screen and a friendly challenge over the pool table in a setting that feels distinctly local to Horsens.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
