You’ll find a few areas in particular that are well known for their dining options. Tivoli Gardens offers up the widest variety, with venues serving a range from traditional and delicious Danish snacks to fine international cuisine.

The prices in this district tend to be quite high, however, and can be up to 30 per cent more than equivalent options in other parts of the city. Other areas that are also well-known for restaurant variety and quality are the streets around the Central Station, in Nyhavn and around Town Hall Square.

Breakfast, for example, typically includes bread that is heavily buttered, along with coffee. Bread features again at lunch and is usually accompanied by fish or cold meats and at dinner, meats, fish and seafood form the base of the meal.

Some of the more popular local dishes include the following: beef hash, usually served with a fried egg, a bearnaise sauce and ketchup; black pudding; millionbof, or mashed potatoes smothered in a rich gravy with small pieces of various meats and roast goose.
