About Fiskebaren

Kødbyens Fiskebar is fresh seafood, easy-drinking wines, delicious cocktails and a staff passionate about it. All in a raw and rustic setting in the Meatpacking District in Copenhagen.

At Kødbyens Fiskebar we always choose local and sustainable products, when the option is there. We avoid unnecessary chemistry. And prefer retailers and producers who share our values on taste, quality, and sustainability.

We opened in 2009 and were immediately awarded a Bib Gourmand in the MICHELIN Guide Nordic Countries – an honor given to restaurants who offers “Good quality, good value cooking”. We are very proud to have been awarded a Bib Gourmand every year since.

Join us for lunch, for dinner, for a mountain of oysters or for a drink at the bar or outside in the sun.
