Copenhagen Small Group Food Tour with Smørrebrød and Street Food

4.9
(73 reviews)
Copenhagen, Denmark

3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

This small-group walking tour links two of Copenhagen's most distinct neighborhoods: Nyhavn, the city's postcard harbor, and Christianshavn, a canal-lined district often called the city's own Mini-Amsterdam.

Across five stops, you'll trace Danish food from its roots to its most modern corners: a chef's refined take on smørrebrød, Denmark's classic open-faced sandwich, then a taco stand featured in Netflix's Somebody Feed Phil, set beside the restaurant that shaped its style. From there, a modern porridge concept, a beloved hotdog cart, and a family-run bakery known for cardamom pastries.

A small group, capped at 12 guests, with plenty of room to ask your guide questions, move at a relaxed pace, and hear the stories behind each dish.

    Porridge was once survival food in Northern Europe. Here, at the world's first restaurant devoted entirely to the dish, you'll taste it reinvented with global spice: red lentil daal, coconut milk, fresh herbs, cherry tomatoes, and salted almonds.

    You'll taste a classic Danish ristet hotdog: red sausage in a soft bun with remoulade, mustard, ketchup, pickles, and onions, from a tradition dating back to Copenhagen's 1920s pølsevogn carts, plus a meat-free version for anyone skipping the pølse.

    At one of Copenhagen’s most renowned family-owned bakeries, founded in 1963, you’ll enjoy a classic Scandinavian cardamom bun: soft, buttery, and lightly spiced, subtly sweet with citrus and floral notes, finished with syrup and pearl sugar, showcasing the bakery’s long tradition of Nordic craftsmanship.
