The Royal Yacht Dannebrog; the HQ of MAERSK; the Danish Royal Playhouse; the Royal Opera; Holmen, the Little Mermaid; the Danish windmills... its all there, right in front of you, when you stare out of the 10 gigantic windows at Copenhagen's hottest new sustainable venue located in a rustic warehouse overlooking the harbour..

This Autumn saw the opening of a new, sustainable restaurant venue at the Copenhagen waterfront, Toldboden at Nordre Toldbod. We are talking a super-flexible, 700m sq venue with a panoramic view over Copenhagen's harbour, it's own jetty, and probably the Nordic region's most sustainable eaterie...

So, if you are you looking for big city atmosphere, flexibility and total sustainability in beautiful surroundings, Toldboden, this new venue in Copenhagen harbour with space for up to 600 people, is the place. 

Toldboden can accommodate anything from kick offs, product launches, lectures, meetings and conferences with a creative angle or a more traditional twist, to large dinners, lunches or brunches - its all up to the client, of course.


Menu with accompanying CO2-audit
Toldboden is owned by Jesper Julian Moeller, former chef of the Michelin-starred restaurant, Kong Hans, who has spent the last ten years manning the stove at the National Museum's Restaurant Julian. And, just as it was at the National Museum, sustainability is an important element of Moeller's new venture.

Toldboden serves elegant, New Nordic cuisine, which isn't just founded upon Danish seasonal produce, but is also CO2-friendly: a notable feature of the restaurant menu is that it can, on request, be prepared with an accompanying CO2 audit - a good gimmick, for sure - but it could also be useful as documentation for a CSR report...

And it isn't just the food which is environmentally-friendly, the setting is too. An advanced heating system ensures that heat from the ovens in the kitchen is used to warm the entire premises; the bar is built from the warehouse's old floor; and the tables are also made from a floor from an old factory.

Meanwhile, all lighting is in the form of LED lights - no wonder Jesper is aiming at Toldboden becoming the largest and most sustainable restaurant in Scandinavia!

...and then there's the bank note menu at Julian's!
By the way, Jesper Moeller's first, fab restaurant, Restaurant Julian, is tucked inside the Danish National Museum and is a favourite Copenhagen lunchspot relishing the unique flavours of Scandinavian cuisine too. Corporate clients have lately been intrigued Jesper's latest idea linking the venue's meals to the new, Danish banknotes. Inspired by by the archeological finds shown on the new Danish bank notes, Jesper and his team have come up with new dishes, where all the raw materials used are from the exact regions in Denmark, where the relics where found, of course..!

NB: Toldboden will soon have an English version of its website. In the meantime, for more information about the venue contact:
