Local tips
- Aim for an early or mid-range lunchtime visit if you want the best choice of dishes and a relaxed pace before the main harbor crowd builds.
- Combine a seated meal with a stop at the fish counter to pick up smoked fish, salads or pies for later meals in your holiday home.
- On windy days, choose a window table indoors to enjoy fjord views without the chill; in summer, ask for an outdoor spot by the harbor edge.
- If you plan to order the fish buffet or larger takeaway menus in high season, check current serving days and consider visiting outside peak lunch hours.
- Try a classic stjerneskud or fish cakes with rye bread if you want a distinctly Danish seafood experience in a single plate.

Harborfront seafood institution in Lemvig
Bjarnes Fisk og Fisketeria sits right on Lemvig Harbor, with the masts of small boats and the calm waters of the Limfjord as its natural backdrop. Step inside and you walk into a space that is part bustling fishmonger, part informal restaurant, infused with the smell of the sea and freshly smoked fish. The location on Havnen makes it an easy stop during a stroll along the waterfront or after a day exploring the North Sea coast. The setting is casual and unpretentious, with simple tables, display counters filled with the day’s catch and, when the weather allows, outdoor seating where you can eat almost at quay level. Large windows make the fjord a constant presence, whether you are grabbing a quick lunch or lingering over a generous seafood plate.From family fish shop to modern “fisketeria”
The story of Bjarnes Fisk begins more than three decades ago, when Bjarne and his wife Tove opened their fish shop in Lemvig. In the early years, the day started in the old auction building, where Bjarne bought fish at the Thyborøn auction before cutting and selling it himself in the shop. This hands-on approach remains at the heart of the business, with a clear focus on freshness, traceability and respect for local fishing traditions. In 2012 the shop moved a few meters to its current harborfront location, gaining more space and, crucially, room for a dedicated dining area – the fisketeria. Two years later, the couple’s daughter Karina took over, continuing the family-run character while refining the menu and expanding the selection of prepared dishes and salads. Today, the place feels like a bridge between Lemvig’s working harbor and its contemporary food scene.Fresh catch, smoked delicacies and Danish classics
The core of Bjarnes Fisk is its wide range of fish and seafood from the Thyborøn auction. Counters are stocked with fillets ready for home cooking, marinated herring, house-made fish salads, pâtés, pies and an array of smoked products. You will find everything from warm-smoked salmon and halibut to classic pickled herring, often accompanied by creamy dressings and garnishes. On the fisketeria side, the menu leans heavily into Danish lunchtime favorites. Stjerneskud – the iconic “shooting star” dish of plaice fillets, shrimp, asparagus and dressing – is a highlight, often offered in both regular and “luxury” versions. Fish cakes with rye bread and remoulade, fish and chips, breaded fillets and seafood sandwiches make it easy to assemble either a quick bite or a full meal. In the evenings, there may be a fish buffet built around “everything good from the sea”, showcasing the variety of what comes through the local fish auction.Takeaway for picnics and holiday homes
Beyond dining in, Bjarnes Fisk is set up for takeaway, which suits the region’s many holiday homes and campsites. Most of the fisketeria menu is available to go, carefully packed so that dishes such as fish burgers, fillets or stjerneskud travel well. On selected days, ready-to-heat menus are prepared, making it easy to serve a seafood dinner without cooking from scratch. The refrigerated counters also hold items tailored for home enjoyment: ready-made pies, terrines, fish spreads and marinated specialties that pair well with local bread and salads. This combination of restaurant and deli makes the shop a practical stop whether you need ingredients for a fjordside picnic, a relaxed family meal or provisions for a longer stay along the Northwest Coast.Atmosphere of a working harbor town
Eating at Bjarnes Fisk means being immersed in Lemvig’s harbor life. Through the windows, you can watch small craft moving on the water, gulls circling above and the gentle activity of the quay. The interior is straightforward and functional rather than formal, putting the focus squarely on the fish and the convivial atmosphere. It is a place that suits many kinds of diners: couples on a coastal road trip, families introducing children to classic Danish seafood, solo travelers seeking a hearty plate after a windy walk along the fjord. The link to the local fishing community is tangible in the products and stories, giving you a direct sense of how the Limfjord and the North Sea shape the everyday cuisine of West Jutland.Season, opening hours and when to visit
Bjarnes Fisk og Fisketeria opens in the morning as a fish shop and for early customers, then shifts seamlessly into lunchtime service. Core opening hours typically run from late morning to late afternoon on weekdays, with slightly shorter hours on Saturdays and closures on Sundays. Lunchtime is the liveliest period, when tables fill with guests enjoying open sandwiches and hot fish dishes. The harbor-side location makes it particularly appealing in mild weather, when outdoor tables let you eat in the fresh sea air. In colder or windier seasons, the appeal moves indoors, where the warm, bright space and steam from the kitchen provide a welcome contrast to the rougher coastal climate. Whatever the time of year, the emphasis on fresh fish from Thyborøn ensures that the experience remains rooted in the daily rhythm of the local sea.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
