Gotfred
Bakery & coffeeStudsgade, Aarhus
A patisserie on Studsgade with the cakes as the whole business.

Illustration made with AI
Gotfred makes patisserie in the classic sense: layer cakes, tarts and small cakes where the craft is visible. The shop on Studsgade is small, and the selection changes with whatever was made that day.
It is a patisserie rather than a café — you buy the cake and take it away, or eat it standing. The quality is in the details: creams, bases and glazes are made from scratch. Alongside the cakes there is smørrebrød on sourdough rye, and both can be pre-ordered for pickup.
Open Tuesday to Sunday from eleven to five. Closed Monday.
Drop by — what is in the counter is what there is. It suits a birthday, cake to take home on a Sunday, and anyone who wants to taste the difference between a patisserie and a café counter.
