Indre Byen Restaurants in Copenhagen
Despite the Indre By being Copenhagen's downtown district, most of the city's top restaurants are found elsewhere. There are dozens of lunch cafes, most of them indistinguishable from the next, but finding a decent restaurant for an evening meal is not as easy as it might sound.
We recommend you head for Gråbrødretorv square, not just because it's so picturesque but for its range of dining options, the best of which is Peder Oxe, a reliable steak house offering traditional dishes. Families might prefer neighboring Sporvejen-a burger diner in an old tram car. Copenhagen's atmospheric Latin Quarter is the location for most our picks.
Vegetarians and backpackers will appreciate Atlas Bar (and its adjoining restaurant, Flyvefisken), a global kitchen with reasonable prices. Along similar lines but lacking the atmosphere, Riz Raz is a budget choice with popular all-you-can-eat lunch buffets and two restaurants in the Indre By.
Italian restaurants are almost over-represented in the Indre By: Of the many, we prefer La Vecchia Signora for its pizzas and its charm, and Vesuvio for its handy location on Rådhuspladsen and spaciousness-a good family option.
Another kid-friendly Indre By restaurant is Chili: there's no tablecloths to worry about and the burgers (and carousel of dips) go down well with kids of all ages.
For those looking for more refined dining, a number of top French restaurants can be found in the downtown area. Our choices lean towards the more casual bistro setting: L'Education Nationale, in the Latin Quarter, is a local institution, while Gothersgade's Pastis gets our vote for class.
