  • NileGuide Expert tip:

    Visitors to one of Slotsholmen's six museums (incl. Christiansborg) can grab a discount here Mon-Wed.


  • Description:

    • This lunch restaurant has become something of a landmark in Copenhagen, having been around since 1852. It serves traditional Danish open sandwiches or 'smørrebrød,' specializing in the archetypal herring dishes usually enjoyed with a Danish shot of schnaps. With a real old-fashioned, dark wood decor, the cafe does not open in the evenings; and being the only restaurant close to Christiansborg, Kanalcafeen is popular with politicians taking a breather from the nearby Parliament.

      Marvelous Danish traditional sandwiches!

    • We misses our 12.30 booking and had to wait an hour for a table. That is how popular this restaurant is. Reserving a table is highly reccomended. But the food is worth waiting for....

      Great lunch restaurant.

    • Great atmosphere and food. Very charming, old, and authentic. This is the place for a danish lunch, with beer and schnaps.
