A green-side restaurant on Horsens’ western edge

Amalielund Mad sits just outside central Horsens, tucked beside the rolling fairways of Horsens Golf Club. The setting feels quietly rural even though you are only a short journey from the town centre. From the dining room’s wide windows you look out over clipped greens, tree lines and big Jutland skies, with light pouring in on long summer evenings. Inside, the atmosphere is informal and welcoming rather than showy. Tables are spaced with a view to both couples and larger groups, and the décor leans towards modern Scandinavian simplicity: clean lines, pale wood and practical comfort that keeps the focus on conversation and food.

Classic Danish flavours with room for creativity

The kitchen at Amalielund Mad centres on familiar Danish flavours given careful, contemporary treatment. Traditional smørrebrød comes layered on dense rye bread with cold cuts, fish, eggs or seasonal vegetables, often garnished generously so that a couple of pieces make a satisfying meal. Beyond open sandwiches, you will often find a la carte dishes that echo Danish home cooking: pan-fried fish, slow-cooked meats, roasted root vegetables and creamy potatoes, along with lighter salads in season. Menus change across the year, with the team putting on themed gourmet evenings where multiple courses are paired thoughtfully and plated with more finesse.

Catering, celebrations and flexible menus

Amalielund Mad is also a fully-fledged catering operation, used by locals for everything from small family parties to sizeable corporate functions. The kitchen is set up to prepare buffets and plated menus for groups that may range from a handful of guests to very large gatherings, adapting the level of formality to the occasion. The staff are used to tailoring menus around dietary needs or specific themes, whether that is a classic Danish lunch table, an international buffet or tapas-style spreads for standing receptions. The restaurant space itself can be dressed for weddings, christenings, anniversaries and business seminars, making use of the greenery outside as a natural backdrop.

Lunch comfort, evening warmth and seasonal touches

Daytimes at Amalielund Mad often feel bright and casual, suited to a comforting lunch, a relaxed meeting or a meal after time on the nearby fairways. As the day moves towards evening, the mood softens; candles and softer lighting make the room feel more intimate without becoming formal. Seasonal menus might highlight Danish asparagus and berries in spring and summer, heartier game, cabbage and root vegetables in the colder months, and special occasion dinners around holidays. The kitchen’s experience with take-away means many dishes are designed to travel well, so locals can pick up full menus to enjoy at home or at off-site events.

A practical stop with a local, down-to-earth feel

While Amalielund Mad is closely linked to Horsens Golf Club, it functions as a standalone restaurant open daily for anyone looking for straightforward, well-prepared food. Portions are usually generous, prices moderate by Danish standards, and the tone is down-to-earth rather than fine dining. For travellers exploring Jutland by car, it works well as a mealtime stop in green surroundings just outside town. For those staying in Horsens, it offers a glimpse of local dining culture beyond the city streets, where good ingredients, familiar dishes and unpretentious service are the main draw.
