Local tips

  • Come hungry if you plan to enjoy the all-you-can-eat fries and generous salad bar; mains like spareribs and burgers are already substantial.
  • Early evening is often busiest with families, so aim for a later lunch or after 19:30 if you prefer a slightly calmer atmosphere.
  • If you are unsure what to try, choose a mixed platter with ribs, steak and chicken to sample several signature flavours in one order.
  • Vegetarians are not forgotten—ask for the beet-based burger or build a substantial meal from the salad bar and sides.
  • Wheelchair users can enter via the main entrance; mention any accessibility needs when booking so staff can allocate an appropriate table.

American road-trip spirit in central Horsens

Bone’s Horsens channels the feel of a Midwestern highway diner right into Emilies Plads, with neon accents, warm wood, and booth seating that would look at home along Route 66. The space is designed for comfort first: wide tables for sharing platters, deep banquettes for sprawling families, and plenty of visual buzz from vintage-style US signs, license plates and pop culture knick-knacks on the walls. It is unmistakably a themed restaurant, but one that leans into nostalgia and fun rather than formality. Natural light from the square mixes with the glow of pendant lamps and bar lights, so the mood shifts gently from busy lunchtime pit-stop to cosy evening hangout. The hum of conversation, the clink of glasses and the faint smell of smoke and grilled meat drifting from the open kitchen immediately set expectations: this is a place to loosen your belt and stay a while.

BBQ spareribs, burgers and all-you-can-eat sides

At the heart of Bone’s Horsens is the signature American-style BBQ. Long-marinated spareribs brushed with the chain’s closely guarded BBQ sauce recipe are the headline act, offered in multiple portion sizes and often paired with baked potatoes or golden fries. Steaks from ribeye to tenderloin share menu space with crispy chicken, pulled pork and towering burgers like the Big Boy, stacked with bacon, cheese and classic garnishes. Sides are treated almost as a separate event. Fries are typically served on an all-you-can-eat basis, encouraging a relaxed, help-yourself rhythm to the meal, while the large salad bar—packed with fresh greens, toppings and dressings—offers balance to the heavier BBQ plates. There are kid-sized versions of many favourites, along with simple, familiar options that suit younger palates.

Family focus and relaxed, inclusive atmosphere

Bone’s Horsens is built around the idea of shared meals and family time. Large tables and sofas welcome multi-generational groups, while small details—balloons, colouring bits or toy bags at many branches in the chain—show that children are not an afterthought but a core part of the concept. The soundtrack tends toward easygoing rock and classic American tunes, adding to the informal, sociable feel. Service follows the same philosophy: friendly, brisk and unobtrusive, allowing guests to set their own pace, whether that is a quick burger before a cinema visit or an unhurried celebration with multiple courses. Wheelchair access via the main entrance makes the space more inclusive, and the straightforward layout helps prams and mobility aids navigate between tables.

A Danish take on US dining culture

Although the theming is American, the restaurant is firmly rooted in Denmark. Bone’s began life in Herning in 1990 and has slowly expanded across the country, so Horsens’ branch is part of a homegrown chain rather than an imported franchise. The menu quietly reflects this, pairing US BBQ techniques with Danish preferences for quality meat, clear sourcing and a growing selection of vegetarian and lighter choices such as beet-based burgers or abundant salads. The result is a hybrid between US diner comfort food and Scandinavian practicality: generous but structured portions, hearty flavours tempered by fresher accompaniments, and a dining rhythm that works as well for midweek dinners as for weekend outings. For visitors, Bone’s Horsens offers an accessible way to experience how contemporary Danish families enjoy American-style dining.

When to visit and how long to linger

Bone’s Horsens opens from late morning through the evening, with slightly later closing hours on Fridays and Saturdays. Lunchtime often has a more relaxed pace and space for walk-ins, while early evening tends to attract families and groups eager to make the most of the salad bar and big main courses. Later in the evening, the mood can feel more like a casual steakhouse, with diners taking their time over ribs and drinks. Most guests spend around one to two hours here, enough to work through starters, a main dish and perhaps a soft-ice dessert or coffee. The restaurant’s central location on Emilies Plads means it easily fits into a broader day in Horsens, whether as a reward after sightseeing or a simple, familiar anchor for travellers wanting comfort food in a foreign city.
