The story of Den Gyldne Pande Family Restaurant
In the heart of Lønne you’ll find Den Gyldne Pande Family Restaurant – a place with deep roots in the local community and a history that, for generations, has been part of life on the West Coast. The restaurant was originally built in 1978 and has since been a natural gathering place for locals, holiday-home guests, and visitors to the area.
Over the years, the place has evolved with the times, but the core idea has always been the same: to create a place with warmth, great food, and cosy surroundings where people can come together around good experiences.
Today, the restaurant is run by Christina and Per, who together want to carry on the place’s proud traditions with respect for its history while creating a modern and welcoming family-restaurant concept. With a strong passion for hospitality, quality, and a great experience, they work every day to create a restaurant where guests feel welcome from the moment they walk through the door.
The vision for Den Gyldne Pande is to create a relaxed and cosy meeting place for families, locals, and tourists alike – a place where classic favourites, great service, and warm surroundings go hand in hand. The restaurant should be a place you want to return to, whether it’s for a quick lunch, a cosy dinner, a family celebration, or a special occasion.
The menu is based on classic Danish and well-known dishes, with a focus on great flavour, quality, and cosy meals for the whole family. At the same time, Christina and Per want to keep developing the restaurant and create new settings and experiences that suit both the area and guests’ wishes.
For them, Den Gyldne Pande isn’t just about food – it’s about atmosphere, community, and creating a place where people meet and feel at home.

“Because a restaurant’s story is never complete, there is always something new and wonderful to discover. An evening spent at Benoit is like boarding a golden ship sailing through a Parisian night.”
