Not far from Nyhavn’s picturesque canals sits Restaurant Anton, an impressive 18th-century building that was once an exclusive confectionery store. A restaurant since 1915, it’s now run by the owners behind Marv & Ben, and its appealingly retro dining room still boasts its original murals, along with blue-and-white-tiled tables and Royal Copenhagen tableware. The modern Danish cooking comprises largely of smørrebrød with a twist at lunchtime – such as herring with sour cream, egg, onion compote and tomato – while dinner sees the likes of fried turbot with sunchokes and a gooseberry vinaigrette.
