For lunch, we serve smørrebrød, originating from tradition, but in a modern interpretation, cooked with new ideas and intense flavour compositions focusing on good taste and sustainable ingredients. In the evening, we serve 10-course menus, à la carte, inspired by classic dishes, with the same interpretation and focus as our smørrebrød. We have room for 70 guests in the restaurant and 40 guests in our private dining. We are continuously working on development and renewal, and are looking for full-time and part-time waiters to join our great team.

More about Aamanns 
Aamanns was founded by chef Adam Aamann, who in 2006 opened our first smørrebrøds restaurant and Take Away in Østerbro in Copenhagen. Back then and today, the starting point is quality smørrebrød based on the classic Danish lunch kitchen, but with a new interpretation. Today, Aamanns has several different places, all working with the same gastronomic set of values and transforming the high quality that we’re known for from our smørrebrød into other dishes. 

The effort to revitalise and reinvent the smørrebrød has brought much recognition our way. Both from the many happy regular guests, but also from reviewers, Danish as well as international. For example, the restaurants Aamanns Etablissement and Aamanns 1921 have been recommended in the Michelin guide for many years. In 2019, we won the “smørrebrød of the year” award from Danish Food Critics.

Today, Aamanns consists of the following:

·       Aamanns Deli & Takeaway (since 2006) 

·       Aamanns Etablissement, lunch restaurant (since 2009) 

·       Aamanns Frokostordning (since 2015)
