No. 10 – Langeland’s Cozy Lounge Bar in Rudkøbing

Cozy, adults‑only lounge bar in a former butcher’s shop, serving Champagne, craft beer and cocktails with island hygge and a colourful courtyard in central Rudkøbing.

4.9

Tucked into a former butcher’s shop on the historic merchant street Nørrebro, **No. 10** is a intimate lounge bar and craft beer haven in the heart of Rudkøbing on Langeland. Run by two local owners who have turned the compact space into an eclectic, living-room-style hangout, it specialises in quality drinks: from Champagne and inventive cocktails to a prize‑winning selection of Danish and local craft beers. With candlelit corners, a colourful courtyard and an adults‑only, hygge‑first atmosphere, it’s the go‑to spot for slow evenings, pre‑dinner drinks or long conversations over carefully chosen bottles.

Local tips

  • Plan your visit for Friday or Saturday evening when the bar keeps later hours and the atmosphere is liveliest, especially in the courtyard on warm nights.
  • If you want tapas, oysters or caviar, contact the bar at least one day (for tapas) or one week (for oysters or caviar) in advance to arrange your order.
  • Beer enthusiasts should ask about local and semi‑local brews; No. 10 holds a Danish Beer Mark, reflecting a strong and well‑curated selection.
  • The bar is designed as a relaxed adult refuge rather than a family venue, so it is best suited to couples, friends and solo visitors without young children.
  • On cooler evenings, aim for an indoor table; the eclectic interior, candles and soft lighting make it especially inviting in autumn and winter.

A Hidden Lounge on Rudkøbing’s Old Merchant Street

No. 10 sits half‑hidden on Nørrebro, one of Rudkøbing’s traditional merchant streets, inside what used to be one of the town’s butcher’s shops. Step through the modest frontage and you move from a workaday island street into a compact bar that feels almost like walking into someone’s private sitting room. The original, slightly industrial bones of the building still whisper of its past, yet the space has been softened with warm light, mismatched furniture and personal details. The address may be unassuming, but the bar has become a small anchor of evening life in this coastal town. Locals slip in after work, island visitors drop by between dinner and a harbour stroll, and conversations drift easily between Danish and other languages as glasses clink across the room.

From Butcher’s Cold Room to Warm Living Room

Two owners, Rikke Søegaard Halling and Nadine Trae, have transformed the once‑cool butcher’s interior into something intentionally warm and informal. They describe the bar as an extension of their own home, and that sensibility runs through everything: lamps on shelves, art on the walls, cushions casually arranged on benches. Nothing feels staged or minimal; instead the style leans into an eclectic, slightly bohemian jumble that invites you to relax rather than pose. The bar counters and shelves reveal a curated rather than vast selection. Every bottle, glass and decorative object has clearly been chosen with care, echoing the owners’ philosophy of quality over quantity. It is the kind of place where you are as likely to chat with the person pouring your drink as with the group at the neighbouring table.

Craft Beer Credentials and Carefully Chosen Drinks

No. 10 is first and foremost a bar, not a restaurant, and the focus is firmly on what fills your glass. The menu spans Champagne, cocktails, long drinks, wine and coffee, but beer is the star. The bar has been awarded the Danish Beer Mark by the national beer enthusiasts’ association, recognising both the breadth and quality of its craft beer selection and the staff’s knowledge about what they serve. Many of the beers come from local and semi‑local breweries, so ordering a flight or trying something on tap becomes an easy way to taste the region. Members of the Danish beer enthusiasts’ association receive a discount, but even casual drinkers can expect thoughtful recommendations. The cocktail list, meanwhile, includes house signatures developed by the owners alongside classic mixes, all made with the same emphasis on good ingredients.

Tapas, Indulgent Add‑Ons and Seasonal Treats

Although the bar does not operate as a full dining venue, it offers a handful of tailored food options by pre‑order. With a day’s notice, guests can arrange a Danish‑style tapas board for at least two people, ideal if you want something more substantial to pair with a bottle or two. Those planning further ahead can request oysters or even caviar with at least a week’s notice, turning an ordinary evening into something closer to a celebration. On selected dates, No. 10 also hosts thematic afternoons or special tastings, pairing beers with simple local bites. These occasions underscore the bar’s role as a social hub, where the line between tasting session, casual hangout and low‑key event often blurs in the most convivial way.

Courtyard Evenings and Island Hygge

In summer, No. 10 spills beyond its small interior. A few tables appear out front, but the real surprise lies in the rear courtyard. Styled like a small southern taverna, it bursts with colourful details: potted flowers, painted walls, a portrait of Frida Kahlo and strings of coloured lights that glow after dusk. On warm evenings the courtyard hums with low conversation and the soft clink of glasses, wrapped in the faint scent of plants and sea air drifting up from the harbour area. The bar positions itself as a relaxed refuge for adults, a place to lower your shoulders after a day of exploring Langeland’s beaches, villages and countryside. Whether you come for a single pre‑dinner glass of Champagne or linger until closing over a sequence of local beers, No. 10 offers a slice of island hygge that feels both personal and quietly distinctive.
