Røgeriet Ballen
A smokehouse and café on Ballen Harbour, where you can eat fish cakes, smoked salmon and mussel soup at the quay or take your food away.
Røgeriet is at Havnevej 3 in Ballen Harbour. It is a fish smokehouse and quayside restaurant serving fish dishes at lunch and dinner, made with fresh catch and organic farm vegetables. The counter sells house-smoked fish, freshly baked bread and the famous fish cakes. Highlights include the fish cake with rye bread and homemade mayonnaise, the house version of stjerneskud called 'Skud i ballen', mussel soup and smoked salmon, and picnic baskets for takeaway. It is more affordable and casual than the sit-down restaurant next door, which makes it ideal for lunch. Run by a new company since 2024.
