Experience a place where historic charm and modern gastronomy meet in the heart of Copenhagen. At Lumskebugten, top-quality ingredients, flavour, and craftsmanship take centre stage.
At Lumskebugten, you can expect a strong focus on high-quality ingredients and dishes where vegetables often take center stage — elegantly accompanied by meat, fish, or similar elements. Whether you choose Lumskebugten’s outstanding smørrebrød, the lunch menu, or the evening dishes, the keywords are uncompromising preparation, bold flavors, and the very best produce. The same applies, of course, if you opt for the restaurant’s vegan or vegetarian menus.
Restaurant Lumskebugten is one of Copenhagen’s oldest restaurants, established in 1854 at Nordre Toldbod. Today, historic charm meets contemporary gastronomy in the beautiful setting at the end of Esplanaden. At lunch, ambitious smørrebrød (open-faced sandwiches) are served — a creative take on Danish classics, crafted with precision and respect for tradition. In the evening, the kitchen presents a menu where Danish roots are infused with French elegance. With its warm atmosphere, waterfront location, and exceptional culinary expertise, Lumskebugten brings together Copenhagen’s history and modern dining under one roof.
