    Where to Find the Best Restaurant Deals in Copenhagen?

    Looking for the best restaurant deals in Copenhagen? You’re in the right place! In a previous post I shared some of my favorite spots for a memorable dinner or lunch after a wedding or proposal. Now, I’m here to help you enjoy even more delicious meals—without overspending.

    Whether you’re a local, a visitor, or just someone trying to enjoy Copenhagen’s food scene on a budget, I’ve got you covered. Below, I’ll share my top tips and websites for scoring great deals. These offers can disappear quickly, so make sure to act fast! And if you want to stay in the loop, I recommend signing up for their newsletters—you’ll be the first to know when new deals pop up!

     

    EarlyBird.dk

    If you’re flexible with your dining plans and love a great deal, EarlyBird.dk is a fantastic way to save on restaurants, bars, and takeaways in Copenhagen. The platform offers last-minute discounts on unsold tables at quality restaurants—sometimes at half the price!

    They even have deals for select spots in Aarhus, making it a great option if you’re traveling around Denmark.

    You can learn more about earlybird.dk deals here.

     
     

    Special.dk

    As the new sister site to EarlyBird.dk, Special.dk prioritizes quality over quantity, offering a limited selection of exclusive dining experiences. If you appreciate high-end gastronomy, this platform provides handpicked deals at top Copenhagen restaurants, takeaway spots, and microbreweries—all at 40-50% off. Unlike last-minute discounts, these offers are valid for up to three months, giving you the flexibility to plan a special night out at your own pace.

    Tipster.io

    If you love scoring once-in-a-lifetime deals, Tipster.io is a must-know platform. A few times per week at 07:01, they release carefully curated offers at some of the best restaurants, bars, and purveyors in Copenhagen. But be warned—these deals sell out within minutes (from my experience, this is the most “competitive” website out of all)! With thousands of people rushing to claim them, you’ll need to be super quick to snag an offer.

    Dailys.dk

    Unlike other platforms mentioned above, Dailys.dk offers a mix of discounts on restaurants, hotels, beauty treatments, and various services. It’s a great all-in-one site for saving money across different experiences in Copenhagen.

    If you’re specifically looking for food and drink deals, check out their dedicated section here: Dailys.dk Food & Drink Offers. With a variety of options available, it’s worth keeping an eye on their site for new dining discounts!

    Bonus: Dining Week – Explore Copenhagen’s Best for Less

    A must-know event for foodies in Copenhagen, Dining Week takes place every February and October. It’s the perfect opportunity to experience some of the city’s best and most beloved restaurants at a discounted price.

    Dining Week introduces both well-established favorites and hidden gems, encouraging you to try new tastes and dining experiences. Check out the official website for more details and to stay updated on the next event: Dining Week. It’s definitely one to mark on your calendar!


    And there you have it—five tips to help you save on your dining experience in Copenhagen. Just a heads-up, I’ve focused more on elevated dining experiences in this post, rather than casual eats.
