In-Depth Information
Cinema
—The cute little 30-seat Andelen Theater (a former grain warehouse
near Torvet Square) plays movies in their original language (Danish subtitles,
closed Mon and in July—when it hosts a jazz festival, new titles begin every
Tue).It'sruninacharmingcommunity-servicekindofway.Themanagement
has installed heat, so tickets no longer come with a blanket.
Bowling
—Ærø-Bowl is a six-lane alley in a modern athletic club at the
edge of town. In this old-fashioned town, where no modern construction
is allowed in the higgledy-piggledy center, this hip facility is a magnet for
young people. One local told me, “I've never seen anyone come out of there
without a smile” (hot dogs, junk food, arcade games, kids on dates; Tue-Thu
16:00-22:00, later on Fri-Sat, closed Sun-Mon, Søndergade 28, tel. 62 52 23

.
Pubs
—Ærøskøbing's two bars are at the top and bottom of Vestergade.
Ar-
rebo Pub,
near the ferry landing, attracts a young crowd and is
the
place for
live music (but no food). The low-key
Landbogården
was recently taken
over by a Sri Lankan family who have made it non-smoking and have started
serving food—both Indian and Danish dishes (daily for 45-75-kr lunches and
100-160-kr dinners, near the top of Vestergade).
