Ruths Brasserie

Skagen


If your holiday dollar doesn't quite stretch to Ruths Gourmet, the Brasserie at Ruths Hotel is a très bon backup option. Here, you can enjoy the marvellous terrace and an all-day menu of classic French dishes (moules-frites, escargot, duck confit and lots of lovely seafood). Pre-order your fresh-baked morning bread (available from 7.30am).
