Local tips
- Plan your visit around lunchtime to enjoy a cheese or charcuterie board with a glass of wine before or after exploring Sønderborg’s centre.
- Ask staff to build a mixed selection of Danish and European cheeses so you can compare styles side by side on a single platter.
- If you want takeaway platters for later, order earlier in the day to allow time for careful preparation and packing.
- Check opening days in advance, as the shop is typically closed on Sundays and operates mainly in daytime and early evening hours.
- Bring a small insulated bag if you are continuing to sightsee so your cheeses stay in good condition until you reach your accommodation.

Discover more about La Fromagerie
A cosy corner of Sønderborg devoted to cheese
La Fromagerie sits on Perlegade, Sønderborg’s busy pedestrian artery, but step through the door and the tempo softens. Wooden counters and well-stocked refrigerated displays are lined with wheels, wedges and logs of cheese, from buttery Danish classics to powerful washed rinds and nutty alpine styles. The space feels more like a neighbourhood living room than a shop, with bar tables, candlelight and bottles of wine within arm’s reach. The heart of the place is its curated selection. Staff can guide you through textures and flavours, whether you are hunting for a mild everyday cheese or a blue that pushes your limits. Everything is cut to order, wrapped with care and presented with suggestions for what to drink or serve alongside it.From deli counter to brasserie table
Beyond the retail shelves, La Fromagerie doubles as a small brasserie and wine bar. At midday and into the afternoon, wooden boards appear laden with carefully chosen cheeses, charcuterie, olives and seasonal accompaniments. Portions are designed for sharing, encouraging you to graze slowly rather than rush a meal. The menu leans toward simple plates that let ingredients speak: perhaps a creamy goat cheese with honey and nuts, a firm aged cow’s milk cheese shaved over salad, or a hearty mixed platter for two. Wines are poured by the glass or bottle, spanning crisp whites that slice through rich rinds and fuller reds suited to stronger flavours, with occasional bubbles for celebratory toasts.South Jutland character with a French accent
While its name hints at France, La Fromagerie reflects its South Jutland setting. You may spot Danish farmhouse cheeses alongside imports, and shelves with local delicacies that pair naturally with what is in the counter. The relaxed rhythm encourages long conversations, just as much as quiet solo tastings at the bar. Decor leans warm and unpretentious, more bistro than formal dining room. Chalkboards, glass display cases and the sight of cheeses being cut and plated give the room an open-kitchen feel. It is the kind of place where you might drop in for a single wedge and end up staying for a glass of wine and a plate you had not planned on.Takeaway platters and edible souvenirs
La Fromagerie also prepares platters to go, from compact selections for a picnic on the harbour to generous spreads for gatherings. Orders can be tailored to preferences, whether that means avoiding blue cheese, focusing on a specific region or building a board around caviar and smoked specialties. Packed in sturdy boxes, they travel well back to a holiday apartment or out into the countryside. Shelves carry extras that turn cheese into a meal: crackers, jams, mustards, oils and carefully chosen wines. You may also notice ceramics and serving pieces, ideal if you want to upgrade your cheese board at home or bring back a practical souvenir from Sønderborg.Lingering over a final glass
As the afternoon edges toward evening, the atmosphere shifts subtly toward wine bar mode. Lighting softens, conversations stretch out, and the focus turns to unhurried glasses paired with whatever is left on your board. It is compact enough to feel intimate, yet central enough that you can easily fold a visit into a wider day in town. Opening hours favour daytime and early evening, making this a natural stop for lunch, an indulgent afternoon pause or a relaxed pre-dinner bite. Whether you come for a specific cheese, a light meal, or simply the pleasure of sitting among good food and bottles, La Fromagerie offers a quietly indulgent slice of Sønderborg life.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
