Dragør Strandhotel

Fodor's Review:

Dragr's harborside centerpiece is this spacious, sunny restaurant and café, its exterior awash in a cool yellow like so many of the buildings in town. The Strandhotel started life as an inn, nearly 700 years ago, making it one of Denmark's oldest inns. Danish royalty used to stay here in the 1500s, after going swan hunting nearby, and in the 1800s Sren Kierkegaard was a regular guest. Though it has kept the "hotel" in its name, today it is only a restaurant. Owned and run by the Helgstrand family for the past 25 years, the Strandhotel has retained its former charms—vintage wooden cupboards and colored ceramics—with views of Dragr's small, bustling harbor. The menu is, disappointingly, tourist-driven (with items such as Mexi-burgers and Caesar salads), but the restaurant also serves Danish fare, including frikkadeller with potato salad; fillet of sole with rémoulade; and cod with red beets, mustard sauce, and chopped boiled egg.
