What guests say

The modern take on smørrebrød and the floating setting earn praise; a few note that service can be slow.

Good to know

  • On board the boat Liva, with views of the houses and the harbour.
  • At lunch the kitchen suggests 2–3 open sandwiches per person, such as green curry herring or butter-fried plaice.
  • In the evening there is a six-course sharing menu at 595 kr., taken by the whole table.
  • Head chef Chris Franklin won the Danish open sandwich championship in 2019.
