Where to eat in Copenhagen: Torvehallerne

A place where taste, coziness and style come together. It has everything from fresh products to dishes from all over the world.

Every city has its own gastronomic heart.
In Copenhagen, it beats at Torvehallerne — a market where you can find everything from oysters and fragrant Danish pastries to Asian delicacies and local wine that’s just begging to be poured into a glass.
It’s not just a market — it’s a place where food is tradition, history, and a way of life.

Atmosphere: breathe deeper and eat more

Two covered pavilions with large windows, through which the northern light shines through, reflecting off the shiny counters. Inside you can smell freshly ground coffee beans, sea breeze from the fish stalls and herbs from the farm stands.

There is constant movement here: citizens popping in for their morning pastries, tourists looking for something unique, and gourmets discovering new flavors.

It’s not just vegetables or fruit, but perfectly fresh farm produce, as if freshly plucked from the garden.

The meat department is a blend of rich smoke flavor, spices and select meats, from aged beef to juicy steaks, game and farm sausages.

The counters are filled with selected meats: fresh steaks, game, aged beef. Nearby, sausages, ham and farm sausages are ready to be cooked.

I just love pâtés, and there are so many to choose from that it’s hard to pick one. Tender, spicy, lightly textured or full of flavor – there’s something for everyone.

Black caviar is the pearl of the fish department

It is available in all variations: from classic sturgeon caviar to more exotic varieties. You can buy it separately or try it as part of ready-made dishes.

Prices vary by type and quality — from €15 to €50 for 50 grams.

If you’re after real luxury, try the lobster with black caviar or the mini pancakes that melt in your mouth, leaving a soft aftertaste of salty indulgence.

Lobster with caviar – €37
Seafood cream soup – €30, Mini pancakes with black caviar – €47

The fish stalls here are a world of their own.

Large cuts of salmon, silvery mackerel, shrimp of all shapes and sizes, and oysters opened right in front of you.

If you want something special, grab a plate of sesame-crusted tuna, marinated shrimp, and a seafood salad.

Seafood platter – €30

The Sweet Corner

Torvehallerne is a paradise for dessert lovers.
Local pastry chefs craft everything from classic Danish pastries to modern sweet creations.

Be sure to try the chocolate tartlets — a perfect balance of bitter cocoa and sweet filling.

Local Shops

Copenhagen is known for high quality in every sphere — and knives are no exception.

Local shops only carry trusted brands that guarantee reliability and durability.

Simplicity & Style

Torvehallerne perfectly reflects the spirit of Copenhagen: minimalism in design, maximalism in quality.
Glass and metal pavilions create a modern vibe while maintaining a cozy atmosphere.

This is a place that’s bound to leave a positive impression.
Everyone will find something to love here, and the cozy ambiance will make your day in the city even brighter.

Just a beautiful Copenhagen night.
