Local tips
- Come earlier in the afternoon if you prefer a quieter atmosphere; the small space can feel busy later in the day, especially on Fridays and Saturdays.
- Ask for an ostetapas plate matched to your chosen wine style; the cheese selection is a highlight and can often be tailored to your preferences.
- If you find a cheese you love, check the counter; many of the varieties used on the boards can be bought to take home.
- Keep an eye on closing times – this is more a daytime and late-afternoon bar than a late-night venue, and hours vary slightly by day.
- Seats are limited; if you are a small group and plan to stay a while, consider arriving just after opening to secure a comfortable spot.

Discover more about Den Lille Vinbar
A small wine bar with a big heart
Den Lille Vinbar sits on shopping street Perlegade yet feels a world away from the bustle outside. Step through the door and you are immediately surrounded by bottles, baskets and counter displays rather than rows of uniform tables. Seating is woven into the space itself – bar stools at the counter, small tables tucked between shelves, and a few cosy corners that make the place feel more like a living room than a formal restaurant. The mood is unhurried and conversational. Soft background music and low lighting encourage you to linger over a glass rather than rush a quick drink. It is the kind of spot where a single glass easily turns into a slow afternoon, especially when the weather outside calls for somewhere warm and welcoming.Wine shelves and cheese counters
At the heart of Den Lille Vinbar is its dual identity as both wine bar and fromagerie. Racks of bottles line the walls, showcasing a compact but thoughtfully curated selection from classic European regions and a handful of smaller producers. Labels change regularly, reflecting seasonal choices and new discoveries rather than a fixed, printed list. Facing the wine is a tempting cheese counter. Here, firm alpine wheels sit alongside soft, oozy rounds and blue-veined specialties. Many guests build their visit around an ostetapas plate – a cheese-based tapas board typically paired with matching wines, bread and condiments. The emphasis is on quality, with a preference for characterful cheeses that stand up to the wines poured by the glass.Continental atmosphere in the heart of Sønderborg
Although very much rooted in southern Jutland, the bar feels inspired by southern European enotecas. The space is compact, the lighting warm and the décor deliberately simple: stacked wooden crates, chalkboard notes and the occasional wine poster or handwritten sign. This gives the room a relaxed, slightly rustic character that suits casual drop-ins as well as planned tastings with friends. Perlegade’s historic streetscape adds to the charm. Between sips, you can glance out to see shoppers and cyclists passing by, a reminder that you are in the middle of town even as the bar itself feels secluded. It is an easy spot to pause during a day of sightseeing in Sønderborg’s centre or to start an evening before heading to the waterfront.Cheese-forward bites and light tapas
Food here leans decisively toward cheese and simple, wine-friendly plates rather than full meals. Ostetapas often includes a selection of cheeses, charcuterie, olives and nuts, sometimes accompanied by small warm dishes depending on the day. Portions are generous enough to share, and there is usually the option to buy cheeses to take home, extending the experience beyond your visit. Dessert is often as simple as finishing with a strong coffee or another small glass instead of a sweet course. The focus remains firmly on the pairing of wine and cheese, inviting you to explore how different textures and flavours interact – creamy, sharp, nutty, fruity – all within one compact board.A relaxed stop for locals and curious visitors
Den Lille Vinbar works as well for a solo glass at the counter as for a lingering afternoon with friends. Opening hours skew toward daytime and late afternoon, making it ideal for a post-shopping break, a pre-dinner drink or a leisurely light lunch built around cheese. The intimate size means it can fill quickly at peak times, but that is part of its charm: conversation tends to flow easily in a space where everyone sits close together. Whether you are a dedicated wine enthusiast or simply curious about local cheese and a good glass, this little bar offers a gentle, unpretentious way to taste something special in the middle of Sønderborg.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
