Cakenhagen — Restaurant in Copenhagen Municipality

During my visit to Tivoli Gardens, I stopped at Cakenhagen Café, which turned out to be one of the most enjoyable and relaxing parts of the entire day. Nestled within the park yet offering a distinctly more refined and tranquil atmosphere, Cakenhagen served as a welcome escape from the noise, confusion, and crowds elsewhere.

The café offered a delightful selection of pastries and desserts, and everything I sampled was of exceptional quality. The stracciatella ice cream was especially memorable—smooth, creamy, and generously laced with fine chocolate shavings that gave each bite the perfect balance of texture and flavor. I also tried a few of their cookies, which were fresh, soft in the center, and rich in flavor without being overly sweet. Their pastries were equally impressive, beautifully presented and clearly made with care and attention to detail.

Beyond the food, the ambiance of Cakenhagen was calm and inviting. Whether seated inside or enjoying the outdoor seating area, it felt like a completely different environment from the rest of the park—elegant, peaceful, and thoughtfully curated. It was the ideal place to pause, recharge, and enjoy a few quiet moments in the middle of an otherwise hectic visit.

Cakenhagen managed to strike a rare balance: it delivered high-quality desserts in a relaxing space, while still being located in the heart of a bustling amusement park. For anyone visiting Tivoli, especially those looking for a moment of calm or something more refined than typical park fare, I would highly recommend making time for this...

Very delicious!!! I got the Tivoli cake (apple compote, rum cream, meringue) with ice tea. The cake itself was very soft and I think it would be good even for people with delicate stomachs!!! The ice tea was very nice too, one of the best I've tried in the city. I went at a moment where there was no line to ask for your food but after I left I could see a relatively long line of approximately 7 people (but it moved pretty fast) so I assume you may be ready to wait a little if it's a weekend.

There are places to sit inside and outside, but it seems like most people prefer to sit outside if the weather is good (they have a beautiful terrace with flowers). You can access the place through stairs (not so long) or through the Illums Bolighus shop next to it (which is also connected to Lakrids by Bulow), so it is fairly accessible.

You can also buy the cake book in english and danish (if the options are available). I think it has been one of the best places I've visited in the city, I'd repeat...

I recently visited Cakehagen, Copenhagen and I was absolutely blown away by the delicious little pieces of art they have to offer. From the moment you walk in, you can tell that this is a place that takes their craft seriously, as everything is meticulously crafted with attention to detail. The flavor combinations are so unique, yet surprisingly delicious. Every bite is a burst of flavor and texture that will leave you wanting more. I tried a variety of items from their selection and each one was delectable. One of my favorites was the raspberry crumble cake - it had layers of moist sponge cake, raspberry jam and crumbly streusel topping. It had just the right amount of sweetness without being too overwhelming. The staff were also super friendly and welcoming which made for an amazing experience overall. If you're ever in the area, do yourself a favor and check out Cakehagen - you won't be...
