CAFÉ PETERSBORG

RAADHUUS KAFEEN
Read moreThe café was first opened in 1924 by wine merchant Jens Jørgensen under the name Park Alleens Vinstue. In 1928, it was expanded to include restaurants. Its English pub decor, all wood, dimmed lights, green leather... is still there. But the cooking is Danish, the smørrebrød are copious and the prices affordable. Background music like piano bar on tape, background noise of international restaurants. Smart info: for once, there is a map in French! Opposite the town hall, as the name suggests.

Enjoy the view over the fjord from the wheelhouse, the highest room on the ship. The view from here is quite unique.
JOMFRU ANE GADE
Read moreA small pedestrian street only lined with restaurants of all kinds (and a full striptease club...), here you will find your happiness. When the weather is fine, the terraces overlooking the cobbled street invite you to sit down. If during the day the atmosphere is rather family, it changes completely in the evening. The atmosphere is much more festive and alcoholic. As for the name of Jomfru Ane, it comes from the story of an inhabitant of the city who was accused of running a school for witches. Of noble birth, she was not burned alive, but only beheaded..
CAFÉ VIGGO
Read moreA familiar face looms up in front of this crowded café! Sure enough, it's Gaston Lagaffe himself! And there's a reason for that: Gaston in Danish is Vakkse Viggo. And the restaurant's menu features the great classics of French cuisine: omelettes, galettes and sweet crêpes. Inside, the decor is worthy of a French-Belgian comic-book museum, with panels featuring Tintin or the Marsupilami. And the icing on the bistro's cake, French is spoken... as you'd expect on Copenhagen's most Parisian street!
BAGELMAN
Read moreAt Bagelman (or Bagel store!), you will find no less than 12 different bagels: pastrami, crab, turkey, chicken, tuna, salmon... in lunch formulas or by the unit. As many sandwiches or wraps, but you can also enjoy delicious fresh salads (corn, red cabbage, snow peas, remoulade, tomatoes...) and pressed fruit juices.

KANALEN

A postcard-like setting on the edge of the canal, facing the boats that glide softly along the quay. To be lived from the terrace or comfortably installed inside, near the windows. A quality cuisine, inevitably inspired by the sea (fiske frikadeller and various kinds of herring on the programme), prepared by a chef honoured with several fine distinctions, including the Euro-toques label and the Michelin Bib Gourmand.
CHRISTIANSHAVNS BÅDUDLEJNING & CAFÉ
Read moreThe story begins in 1898 with the installation of a boat rental company, between boat and rowboat. Soon a modest café opened its doors.

Located on a pontoon moored along the canal, surrounded by the 18th century facades of Christianshavn, in the middle of ducks and ships of all kinds!

The interior is typical of the taste for Scandinavian design as well as the terrace opened in the beautiful days. The cocktails of the house have a good reputation. The team is young and friendly, the atmosphere is festive but reserved for people over 20 years old on disco nights.
RAADHUSKROEN
Read moreRaadhuskroen, translated as "the mayor's crown", is an inn that recalls the past. From the street, the sign swings gently and creaks. The atmosphere takes us in!

Seafood gratin, fish roe and brioche toast, beef bourguignon... A friendly, relaxed atmosphere. When it comes to wine, you won't feel out of place thanks to the many French bottles on offer. We recommend the buttered brioche bread with minced beef tartare, candied egg yolk, tarragon mayonnaise, gherkins and fried onions, served with a green salad. Yummy!
SKIPPERHUSET FREDENSBORG
Read moreA real love at first sight for this small restaurant, which works more like a table d'hôtes. Installed in a pretty wooden house, all white, set on the shores of Lake Esrum, which is accessed by a long wooden pontoon. The terrace is also open on the water where swans are splashing around... Idyllic and so Scandinavian: white tablecloths, candles, bouquets of wild flowers. The cuisine is simple and refined at the same time, the welcome is warm. A little extra, the digestive walk by the water. To see: boathouse.

Atmosphere guaranteed!

The overall atmosphere is very cosy, with candles and marine paintings adding a harbor touch. Beautiful and very good!
