For the first time decided to have Christmas Eve dinner out and what better place than to celebrate my half Danish heritage. Very nice place, friendly service, and good traditional Danish food. Will definitely be back. read more

See all

Great ambiance and authentic atmosphere. We came after the Sunday special. So we had fish and chips. Meatballs poutine and sandwiches plate. Delicious and true to European cuisine. Will be back for the dinner entrees soon read more

Our family group of 17 gathered to celebrate our Mor/Mormor//Farmor/Oldemor. The service was excellent and Smørrebrød was authentic and delicious. The new operators are doing a fabulous job. We look forward to going back. read more

This place was an amazing find. Authentic Danish food hidden in a senior's centre/ trailer site in rural Guelph, beautiful atmosphere and service and even live music! Our meal was really dope - we had a big platter of build your own sandwiches, all totally unique flavours and a hard to find cuisine. Great craft beer list too. We will be back! read more

4.5 Love this place. Stumbled upon this trying to find a place to eat in the Guelph area after visiting the Aberfoyle Antique Market. Rustic, homey, Inn up in the mountains kinda feel. Essentially a villa retreat with camping, restaurant, and park grounds. Restaurant greets you as soon as you pull in. There's mention of needing a membership- don't know what that applies to. Restaurant is definitely open to the public. Smørrebrød (Danish open-faced sandwiches) is where it's at. This tugged at my European heart strings. Huge selection of sandwiches buffet style where you can plate what you want to eat each sandwich priced and tallied at the till. Can pay on the spot or set a tab leaving your credit card at the till. Tried the smoked eel, smoked salmon, herring, egg and mackerel, esrom cheese, and smoked pork. Each sandwich is $5-7 with majority priced at $5. Not only was the main course delish, dessert was phenomenal! Typically don't order dessert but you'll want to here. Lagkage - Danish Layer Cake $6 (liken to a strawberry shortcake but on another level) Winerbrød - Danish Puff Pastry $5 If your going to get dessert the layer cake is the way to go, not overly sweet. Patio seating but you'll want to get there early. Lots of regulars lounging the afternoon away. Service was amazing lots of friendly staff. Finished your drink, not to worry your server is at your table ready to take your next order. Ice cold beer with Tuborg Gold and Carlsberg on tap. Bottles of Tuborg Green, Faxe Lager, Sommersby Cider, Aalborg and Jubilæums. And of course domestics. Want to be transported to Scandinavia look no further. read more

Dropped into the Danish Place tonight, Sunday , and enjoyed a wonderful kitchen platter. Three open face Danish sandwiches, chefs choice... Just realized you don't have for fly all the way to Copenhagen for great authentic Danish food. Nice selection of beers and ciders as well. A nice drive from Cambridge, Hamilton or Guelph, around 20 minutes and the restaurant is located on a quiet country road in Puslinch. It has a lovely patio for dining in the summer. I will be back! read more

The Danish Place - The kitchen platter and my half finished Carlsberg! - Scandinavian Near Me - Puslinch, Ontario

Had 20 people interested in trying this place but was told could not handle on the preferred day, a Thurs. lunch. Then told groups of 12 or more needed to order food choice in advance. Trouble was menu not posted on their website or their FB page. They not answer phone on Tues. or Wed. and have no voicemail. 20 became 9. My $10 "sandwich" was skimpy and my soup was not hot, just barely warm. Took way too long for food to arrive. The waitress tried very hard to please. They have remodelled the place and now it looks modern & trendy. Lost the Danish/European feel it once had. The appeal of this place has gone. read more

Amazing, Delicious and culturally accurate Danish food. I am Danish and my family and I came here for a memorial lunch for my late great grandmother. They were extremely accommodating to food allergies and went over and above to make our experience amazing. A very kind bunch. You will not be disappointed. Also the beer was not warm! It was ice cold :) read more

The Danish Place - Danish Sandwiches - Scandinavian Near Me - Puslinch, Ontario

My father & Margaret arrived without a reservation but told my the manager he could accommodate them with a table in 20 minutes. 20 minutes soon turned into 45 minutes . An older couple arrived their 35 minutes AFTER my father & Margaret had been waiting. The older couple also had no reservation. 10 minutes after they arrived he took them to the table that my Father & Margaret had been waiting for. My Father asked him what the hell is going on we have been waiting for 45 minutes for that table & you gave it to them. They have only been here 10 minutes, as we have been here 45 minutes. He then told tell he could not accommodate them & that they would have to leave. The manager is totally Incompetent & unprofessional he was also VERY RUDE & was bolagerant . My family have been going there for over 40 years. We have experienced many different owners and managers and we have never been so shabbily treated as we were this time. The owner is a chef and works in the kitchen and has hired this young man to manage the restaurant floor I hope he is aware that he not only made made my father and Margaret stand there for 45 minutes and then to be turned away he also turned another party of 4 away and another party of 2 telling them that he was short staffed and he could not accommodate them as well. If I could rate you lower than one star I would. This treatment is absolutely unforgivable. read more

My first time eating at a Danish place! It was super yummy!!!! I love the location, staff and food!! Very clean family fun restaurant in the middle of a Danish camping grounds! Very authentic as the while area are Danes!! You will definitely love it here!! read more

My friend is originally from Denmark, and he says the Danish open-faced sandwiches here are quite authentic. I've been to this restaurant three times, and each time I leave with a full stomach and satisfied tastebuds. For the open-faced sandwiches, you have the option to order them individually. You can also order a platter which includes all the "stuffings" and a basket of bread and you assemble your own sandwiches. My favorite is the warm filet of sole, which is a deep-fried fish. The outside is crispy, and the inside is tender. Very yummy. They also have the traditional shrimp and egg with made-in-house Danish tartar sauce, roast beef with bacon bits, and this sausage cut that my friend says is probably also made in-house as they can't import that here in Toronto. These are must-tries because they seem to be the more traditional sandwiches, but for someone who likes strong flavouring, I would recommend the curry herring. Note: This is not for someone who doesn't like strong fish taste. You will be taken aback with this one if you don't expect it! Last time we went, we also ordered from their Warm Lunches menu, a liver and bacon sandwich. OMG. This was so good. The liver was so rich, and it was accompanied by sweet sauteed onions that gave the liver extra kick. I would recommend skipping their desserts. I've tried a few, and none impressed me. I think they source their desserts from a Danish bakery in downtown Toronto. Price isn't exactly cheap for "sandwiches," because you really want to try all the different types and each would run you about $5+. I'd say 3 sandwiches would suffice one lunch appetite. read more

Love this marvellous, magical place. Hidden in the middle of almost nowhere (yet only 15 minutes from Guelph or Cambridge). Danish sandwiches so good that if this place were in Toronto it would be on every "foodie's" top ten list. Ice cold beer (ignore that review that mentions warm beer--I can't believe it!). My wife and I always sit in the window of the library room and marvel that this strange island of charm exists at all. I wish i was there right now. read more

Very good food, Just like Mormor used to make! With a Danish history in my family and having been to Denmark in my youth I can personally recommend this place for people looking for an Authentic Danish meal. read more
