Jorgens Spisehus

Skagen


While you probably won't remember the decor and ambience, down-to-earth Jorgens is dependable for no-fuss traditional dishes and cheerful service. Tuck into old-school Danish specialities like stjerneskud (one pan-fried and one steamed fish fillet, plus shrimp and asparagus on bread) and smørrebrød, or hit the spot with a burger or Wiener schnitzel. The kitchen closes 7pm; takeaway available too.
