Discover more about Bar' Vinbar
A friendly wine bar at the heart of Sønderborg
Bar' Vinbar sits on a prominent corner of Perlegade, one of Sønderborg’s main shopping streets, and feels immediately welcoming as you step inside. Established in 2023 by John and Louis Hansen, a father-and-son duo, it was designed as a neighbourhood wine bar first and foremost, somewhere locals and visitors can wander in without any sense of formality. The low hum of conversation, clinking glasses and gentle background music sets an unhurried pace from the moment you arrive. The interior takes its cues from modern Scandinavian bar culture: clean lines, unfussy materials and a layout that encourages people to sit close and talk. A long counter dominates one side, backed by shelves of bottles, while small tables and window seats line the room, placing you right into the street life outside. At night, the space softens under warm lighting, making the compact room feel cosy rather than crowded.Fifty ways to enjoy wine by the glass
The headline feature here is the selection of wine available by the glass. The bar works with roughly 50 different wines open at any one time, a large number for a small venue and a deliberate choice to let guests taste widely without committing to full bottles. Expect a mix of classic European regions and newer discoveries, with styles ranging from crisp whites and delicate rosés to generous reds and sparkling wines suited to celebration. This breadth lets you treat an evening as an informal tasting: start with something light, move through a bolder red, and perhaps finish with a sweet or fortified wine. Staff are happy to explain differences in style or suggest a glass to match your mood or food. For those less focused on grape varieties, it is just as easy to choose by simple preferences—dry, fruity, full-bodied—rather than technical terminology.More than wine: small plates, coffee and cocktails
Although wine is at the centre of the menu, Bar' Vinbar also caters to mixed groups and non-wine drinkers. A concise selection of cocktails and spirits sits alongside beers and soft drinks, giving plenty of options if someone in your party wants a gin and tonic or a local brew instead of a Cabernet. During the day and early evening, locally roasted coffee specialties add another dimension, making the bar a relaxed place for a mid-afternoon pause. To keep glasses company, there is a menu of light dishes and snacks rather than full restaurant courses. Think small plates built for sharing: salmon, pâté, cheese and similar simple but well-presented bites that are easy to combine into an informal meal. This format suits the atmosphere of the place, allowing you to stay as long or as briefly as you like—one glass and a snack before moving on, or a series of plates over a lingering night.Atmosphere, rhythm and opening hours
The bar keeps hours that align with its role as an evening hangout. On weekdays, doors open late afternoon and stay open into the late evening, giving plenty of time for an after-work glass or an unhurried nightcap. Thursdays stretch just past midnight, while Fridays and Saturdays typically run until about two in the morning, with earlier afternoon openings at the weekend. Sundays are more relaxed, starting mid-afternoon and winding down at a sensible hour. The result is a rhythm that changes throughout the week. Earlier in the day and early in the week, it can feel quiet and contemplative, with people reading, talking softly or tasting a couple of glasses before dinner. As Friday and Saturday night progress, the volume rises along with the level of conversation, transforming the small room into a lively, convivial spot that still avoids feeling rowdy.Who will enjoy Bar' Vinbar most
Bar' Vinbar is especially appealing if you enjoy discovering new wines without a heavy, formal setting. Couples often use it as a date-night opener, sharing a couple of glasses before heading elsewhere or staying on once they find something they love. Groups of friends appreciate that everyone can order at their own pace and taste, from serious wine choices to easygoing cocktails. Solo travellers are just as well served. The bar counter and window seats are natural places to settle in with a glass and watch the street outside, and the compact size of the room means you never feel isolated. With its central location on Perlegade, it also works well as a final stop after an evening walk through Sønderborg’s old streets and harbourfront, rounding off the night with a last glass in a warm, relaxed setting.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
