A Cellar with Centuries of Character
Restaurant Eydes resides in a vaulted cellar beneath the historic Lichtenbergske Palace, a landmark building that has anchored Horsens' town center for generations. The restaurant occupies spaces that have served as a meeting place for locals across decades, now thoughtfully restored to preserve their original architectural character. Light terracotta brick paves the floor, while arched ceilings and tall windows flood the intimate dining rooms with natural light, creating an atmosphere that feels both grand and welcoming. The setting evokes a sense of stepping back in time while enjoying contemporary comfort and service.Danish-French Culinary Philosophy
The kitchen at Eydes draws inspiration from both Danish and French traditions, creating a menu that celebrates seasonal ingredients sourced from trusted local producers. Rather than following rigid formulas, the chef responds to what the seasons offer, ensuring that every dish reflects the current availability of the finest regional products. This commitment to quality and locality is formally recognized through the restaurant's bronze organic certification, a distinction that underscores its dedication to sustainable sourcing and responsible food practices. The approach results in dishes that taste fresh, vibrant, and deeply connected to the Danish landscape.Seasonal Menus and Wine Partnerships
The menu transforms throughout the year, with three-course offerings that might feature cold-smoked Faroese salmon on toasted brioche, roasted veal loin with pommes anna, or poached pears with chocolate and hazelnut sauce. Wine pairings are available to accompany the meal, selected to enhance each course with precision and care. The restaurant also offers juice menus for those preferring non-alcoholic options, and table snacks provide an opportunity to customize the dining experience. This flexibility, combined with the kitchen's technical skill, allows Eydes to serve both casual diners and those seeking a more elaborate culinary journey.Service and Atmosphere
The restaurant's staff are trained professionals who balance formality with genuine warmth, creating an environment where guests feel both respected and at ease. Service is attentive without being intrusive, and the team demonstrates deep knowledge of the menu and wine list. The cellar's intimate scale means that even on busy evenings, the atmosphere remains personal and unhurried. Soft lighting, the acoustic properties of the vaulted space, and the careful arrangement of tables all contribute to an ambiance suited to celebrations, romantic dinners, and special occasions.Location and Accessibility
Situated at Søndergade 17 in central Horsens, the restaurant sits directly on the town's main pedestrian shopping street, making it easily accessible on foot from most parts of the city center. The building's street-level entrance leads down into the cellar, where the dining rooms unfold. This central location places Eydes within walking distance of shops, galleries, and other cultural attractions, making it a natural destination for both visitors and residents exploring the town.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
