WHERE TO DINE ON NEW YEAR'S EVE 2025/2026?
New Year's Eve is the one day of the year that most of us have planned a long time in advance. In this blogpost, we therefore move beyond the spontaneous restaurant visits, to give you tips for finding a table for New Year's. Many restaurants are already fully booked, but if you still haven't planned your evening, here is a list of restaurants with available tables for New Year's.
Postpone the Christmas planning for a few days and instead spend some time securing a table at one of the many good restaurants that are open on New Year's Eve. Once it's done, you just need to have bought some delicious alcohol for the after-party, and then New Year's Eve is in place. Most restaurants close around 23, so you can celebrate midnight somewhere else. But we promise you, there are a lot of delicious New Year's menus out there that can get you off to a good start on the last night of the year, and we've also found a few to keep your party going all night. If you are looking for a place that is child-friendly, we have that too.

But seriously, you need to hurry. We are not the only ones who have had this idea, which is why many places are already fully booked. But you're in luck, because we've done a little detective work and found some great restaurants that still have available tables.
The Cofoco group will be open for New Year's at several of their restaurants, 17 to be exact. See more here: NEW YEAR AT COFOCO. Among the 17 is Delphine, who we have chosen to highlight here. If you would like to end 2025 in style, you can safely leave the planning of New Year's Eve here. The New Year's menus are already ready, and they have selected wonderful wines that go perfectly with the dishes. The entire package is thus planned in advance, so you only have to think about who you would like to sit at the table with and what you should wear. New Year's dinner incl. wine menu costs DKK 1,800 and can be enjoyed from 6pm to 11pm. You can then continue on to your planned destination to jump into 2026, or you can stay for the New Year's party at Delphine, where there is a party until 03.00.
The dishes are served Family style and there is also a vegetarian version which can be found on their website.

No wreath cake, no oysters, just a good night with good people and a good party. They run two seatings as usual, and if you book the late seating, they say thank you for tonight and send you out on New Year's Eve at 11.15 p.m., so the staff also get the chance to celebrate the New Year.
