The best seafood restaurants Hovedstaden

Let's not forget that Copenhagen is first and foremost a port, and that seafood is a culinary staple. Fiskebar has a slightly different concept: it's afish and seafood bar. The products could not be fresher or healthier than if they were caught in season. The cuisine is successful: original salads, fish & chips, vegetarian dishes... The atmosphere is informal, lively and sometimes noisy. It warms up the rather crude, "fishmonger's slightly aseptic" style of the place, with its white earthenware tiles.

This large canteen-like restaurant, located on the seafront, is immediately recognizable by its unusual white chimney rising to the sky. For lunch and dinner, it offers delicious smoked fish buffets straight out of the smokehouse that has been in operation since 1898. You will enjoy the island's specialties: curried or marinated herring, rollmops, smoked eels, smoked mackerel, shrimps, fish balls... Many other restaurants of this type offer similar slates. The address also has a store!

Recognizable with their sharp black roof ending with a long white fireplace, some røgeri houses small restaurants where you can eat cheap seafood products. Wooden tables are outside, sometimes a fish buffet is available. It is located near the ports of Gudhjem, Allinge and Snogebaek, in Arnager (between the airport and Boderne), or in Aakirkeby.

Pulpo is a bar-restaurant where you can stop for a cup of coffee in the sunshine, or enjoy a glass of wine or a cold beer at any time of day! Depending on your mood, opt for a quick lunch with a single course and a glass of wine, or for the 4-course tasting menu including wines, cheeses and desserts. The menu is inspired by Italian and Spanish cuisine (linguine with shrimp, fried calamari), with a few detours to South America (ceviche, N'duja). Good ingredients that change with the seasons throughout the year.

A former oyster bar when the fish market was in full swing in the square, this fish and seafood restaurant was founded in 1910. It is housed in a beautiful 18th century house decorated with large mirrors and murals executed in 1880 by a certain Valdemar Andersen. A timelessly chic address where you can enjoy oysters and shellfish, fish or lobster soup, sole or monkfish, smoked salmon... in a refined setting. Beautiful cellar and impeccable service on white tablecloths lit by candles. A romantic address.
