No. 2
RestaurantChristianshavn, Copenhagen
A Nordic bistro by the harbour — lunch and dinner, closed Sunday.

Illustration made with AI
No. 2 sits on Nicolai Eigtveds Gade looking across the harbour towards the Black Diamond, cooking Nordic food in bistro format: fewer ceremonies, the same kitchen craft.
Lunch is one of the better deals in its price class — a menu at a price that needs no occasion, in a room with a view most places charge more for. In the evening the card grows longer, and the bar mixes both classics and its own drinks, so the evening can continue after dessert.
Open for lunch from twelve and dinner from half past five, Monday to Saturday. On Friday and Saturday they stay open until one in the morning, which makes it one of the few in this class where the kitchen does not close at ten. Sunday is closed.
It suits a dinner where the view is allowed to count, and the evening where you want to sit for a while. There are tables on the quay in summer, and they are worth the booking.
Why it's worth a visit
- Nordic cooking in bistro form
- Lunch and dinner with a harbour view
- Until 1am on Friday and Saturday
