Café Sorgenfri

One of our favorite lunches during a month-long visit to Scandinavia. We had several Danish residents suggest this restaurant and it did not disappoint. Although they were very busy while we were there, the service was excellent. The food was delicious. A great memory of lunch at this pub.

My favorite in Copenhagen so far. Except the amazing dishes waiter's are amazing. Professional and friendly.

This place is about as old-school as they come, I'm told. The food is very good, and comes with the bread separately so you can choose how much butter or pork fat you want. Overall, one of the better Danish lunch restaurants I've tried.

I enjoyed a scrumptious traditional danish julefrokost (Christmas buffet). The interior was nicely decorated and really reflected the long-standing service of this relatively small restaurant. The staff was very friendly and accommodated our large party without problems. The buffet was divided into two parts, the first with different types of herrings and complementary toppings to be eaten with lard or butter on danish rye bread. The second and main platter included a variety of delicious danish recipes, from the fried plaice to the chicken salad, pork tenderloin in mushroom sauce, salmon, hand-peeled shrimp, glazed ham with a stunning salad and the roast pork with crispy top. The atmosphere was festive and relaxed. Really recommended. Almost impossible to get a seat without reservation.

Traditional danish food. Smørbrød. Aquavit. Great steak tartar. They are usually fully booked. Reservations are highly recommended.
