A Porta eta. 1792
Address:
Kongens Nytorv 17
Copenhagen, Denmark
Phone:
3311 0500
Description:
Time was when Kongens Nytorv's
Cafe A Porta was simply a place for old ladies to sip cups of coffee and fancy pastries after a tour of nearby
Magasin, until local business tycoons the Olsen Boys (owners of
Cafe Victor and B&W Gastropub) revamped the place in 2009, transforming it from genteel coffee house to trendy French brasserie and exclusive, afterhours nightclub. As the name illustrates, this restaurant has its roots right back to the 1700s, making it one of Copenhagen's oldest. The rather expensive menu includes European classics like Wiener schnitzel, chateaubriand and fillet of veal with foie gras; there is also a two-course theater menu for those heading onwards to the
Royal Theater from 5.30-7pm.
