Husmanns Vinstue is a historic cellar restaurant on Larsbjørnsstræde in central Copenhagen, serving guests since 1888. It specialises in traditional Danish lunch, with classic smørrebrød, herring, warm meat dishes and recipes rooted in old Danish home cooking. The setting feels like an old wine parlour, with brick walls, wooden details, white tablecloths and relaxed, attentive service.
The menu centres on open-faced sandwiches topped with pickled herring, roast beef, fried plaice, liver pâté, smoked eel, matured cheese and seasonal accompaniments. A broad selection of Danish beers and more than thirty kinds of aquavit and snaps make Husmanns Vinstue a natural choice for a true Danish lunch experience. Guests appreciate the authentic flavours, reasonable mid-range prices for such a central location and the sense of stepping into “real Denmark” rather than a generic tourist spot.
