Quedens Gaard Café
Quedens Gaard
An old merchant's estate beside the cathedral, in business since medieval times, now a café and small shop with a rose garden and a riverside backyard.
Quedens Gaard is at Overdammen 10 near the cathedral, an old merchant's estate where trade has been done since the Middle Ages. It takes its name from the Quedens family, who ran a cloth shop here. It was once a museum and is now a café, grocery shop and cultural venue. All café dishes are made in house: salmon tartare, burgers, nachos, small plates and a daily chalkboard special, plus a museum brunch that includes admission to the Ribe Art Museum that day. On good days you can sit on the terrace, in the rose garden or in the riverside backyard. Lunch costs about DKK 49–195, and you order at the counter.
