Dragør Strandhotel
This old place is still going strong despite nearing a good 700 years of age. A bright old yellow building, with a terrace overlooking the small harbour. The food is decent and OK, mainly Danish/French dishes, but come here for the atmosphere, not the food.

Flyvergrillen
This is an oddity and a Copenhagen institution. This old run down diner is located right by the runways of the airport — and has become a hotspot for geeky flight spotters and cult followers alike. The interior is full of airline memorabilia from floor to the attic. Outside there is a hill equipped with binoculars to follow the traffic of the airport, and if that isn't enough, Copenhagen's driving schools run their obligatory icy roads course on a track at the other side of the hill — meaning you can also have a good laugh over would-be drivers spinning out of control. But don't come here for the food!
