Hard Rock Cafe Copenhagen is the place to visit with great food,
fantastic cocktails, and amazing memorabilia. Hard Rock Cafe
Copenhagen is located by the downtown shopping boulevard, just 12
minutes away from Langelinie pier and the famous Little Mermaid.

Rock Cafe experience. Hard Rock promotes a laid-back culture that
is open and welcoming to all. Hard Rock brings you experiences that
rock!
Höst is a new Nordic restaurant anno 2012. There’s no interior
decoration as such. It is the raw wooden furniture, the walls finished in
a myriad of calming greys and the tableware that play the leading role.
A role that the food, selected according to the produce available during
the Nordic seasons, of course shares and shines in. Höst offers a fixed
three-course menu that you can combine with the standard wine menu
or pair with the upgraded selection of wines. There is also a small à la
carte menu. Höst has won three international design awards.
