RestaurantSlotsgade, Aalborg
Danish cooking in the old aquavit distillery quarter.
Illustration made with AI
Hos Isidor Henius is named after the man behind Aalborg Akvavit and serves Danish food in a register that matches: classic, solid and with snaps on the card.
The restaurant sits on Slotsgade in the old distillery quarter, and the card is Danish throughout — open sandwiches at lunch and warm dishes in the evening. The snaps is not decoration but part of the meal.
Open Monday to Wednesday from half past eleven to five, Thursday to Saturday until nine and Sunday until five.
It suits a lunch with snaps, a dinner with visitors, and anyone who wants to taste what Aalborg is known for besides the music. There are seats outside on Slotsgade in summer.
Why it's worth a visit
- Danish cooking with aquavit on the list
