Hanstholm Nightlife

Thats actually their motto, and it doesn't ryhme at all. The local inn is a strange place. It houses the only disco in town as well as the most hardcore local fishermen. It has a caged stage in classic "Road House" style with the occational stripper, and is famous for having strips on sunday mornings at 11 for the incomming Norwegians on the ferry. This place should be visited with some care, because drunken brawls are common, and sense is as unknown as soap on a fishing boat. It's uniquely Hanstholm.

Update: The Inn has lost it's liqouer license on account of not cooperating with the police, not having proper book keeping and just all round being a dive, so maybe this gem of Hanst-algia or Hanst-ericana might be gone... at least for now.

Gordon Inc. in "Hardcore 2000" about Hanstholm Kro "Steder kan vaere hardcore: Ser 48 timer paa Danmarkskanalen om Hanstholm Kro. Hanstholm Kro er hardcore, der er dagstrip om soendagen og et bur omkring scenen saa gaesterne ikke kan overrage stripperen. Men hardcoren stopper ikke der: Den gamle kaptajn der ejer Hanstholm Kro og gaar i laedervest og ryger filterloese cigaretter og hele tiden har politiet paa nakken for rufferi fordi han lejer vaerelser ud til Thai-piger og piger fra oestlandene og sir at han fyrer den af saalaenge han lever og ikke tar noget med herfra er ogsaa hardcore. Michelle der staar i baren og skal strippe for fulde norske soefolk kl.11 om formiddagen og behoever alt det arbejde hun kan faa er ogsaa hardcore. Hanstholm Kro er bare et sted ud af tusinder. Skumle bodegaer med tung, tysk oendenoed og saere stamkunder er altid mere hardcore end trendy cafeer."

Dress Code: Dont look too smart. Don't look like a surfer either.
