8 delightful taste experiences for autumn

Pull on your boots and explore autumn’s natural pantry. Mushroom foraging and guided gathering tours along the Northwest Coast offer fresh air, beautiful scenery and little finds that make the experience truly special.

Autumn means candles, delicacies and cosiness. Snuggle up indoors while the weather rustles the leaves and nature paints with a warm and beautiful palette of colours. We have gathered some of the best cafés and eateries on the north-west coast when it comes to indulging in home-baked temptations.

All aboard for a three-hour oyster hunt on the fjord from Oddesund. Together with the guides from Jyllandsakvariet in Thyborøn, you’ll uncover the fjord’s salty treasures and round off the adventure with oysters served raw or grilled over glowing coals, paired with a glass of bubbly.

12 km southeast of Nr. Vorupør and closest neighbour to Thy National Park, you will find the organic farm Gyrup, which produces its own whisky. Here you can take a tour of the farm, including tastings of Thy Whisky, locally brewed beer, meat and Thybo cheese.

Experience the active coastal landing site in Thorupstrand with its well-known blue fishing boats and award-winning fiskefrikadeller (fish cakes) from Thorupstrand Fiskehus, or purchase freshly caught fish to take home from the shop or smokehouse.

Near Lønstrup, Keramikcaféen Møllehuset is well worth a visit. Tuck into homemade cakes and freshly baked bread served on ceramics from the café’s own workshop, or linger over a delicious brunch in cosy surroundings with Vennebjerg Mill just outside.

At Brokmans in Lemvig, autumn is served in warm soups, hearty open sandwiches and sourdough bread full of seasonal flavour. Local ingredients like apples, pears, pumpkin and root vegetables meet cosy harbour views and an atmosphere made for slowing down.

Nr. Vosborg Manor House. Located 20 km west of Holstebro and close to Nissum Fjord, you can experience the historic surroundings and dine in the cosy restaurant. You can also stop by Nr. Vosborg's Speciality Shop and buy local specialities to take home with you. 

8 km south of Thorsminde and just north of Vedersø Klit, you will find the cosy Fjand Gårdbutik, an old dune farm and beach guard's residence that exudes a wonderful atmosphere. Here you can shop in the cosy store rooms, enjoy delicious specialities for lunch in the café or have an experience in the gallery.
