Open sandwiches

Sandwiches based on good ingredients

Restaurant Kronborg

Restaurant Kronborg is all about homemade food and cosiness. 

We aim to serve tasty food focusing on the traditional Danish open sandwiches (‘smørrebrød’ [ˈsmɶɐ̯ʌˌbʁœðˀ]), great drinks and coffee brewed with passion.

All in a cosy space where our guests feel welcome and have a great time.

In short: The kind of place we would like to visit in our own free time…

One of Copenhagen’s best classic smørrebrød restaurants, fine selection of homemade schnapps and, not least, fantastic service from the staff – attentive, humorous and full of personality.

Super good breakfast place. The food was absolutely perfect and top quality. I dropped my fish fillet on the floor, but the good waiter immediately brought a new one. It was service at a high level! See you again soon!

Super lunch cafe with classic smørrebrød and with a positive twist of something new. So delicious, sweet service and always nicely covered. Toilets are nice. The restaurant is highly recommended.
