Situated in a distinctive yellow house just a short walk from Skagen’s central square, this bar and beer garden has woven itself into the fabric of the town’s lively social scene.

Inside, you'll find a relaxed, no-frills interior, the air often filled with lively banter, clinking glasses, and the friendly laughter of regulars.
