Yesterday was the day when I decided for the first time not just to visit the Tårnet Tower in Copenhagen, but also to have dinner there. The interest in these targets was given by a post on Instagram talking about the tower, its highs, views and the restaurant. At that point I was amazed about how I had missed this place, and I decided to put it on my “must do” list. First step: book a table for dinner; then, wait for that day, and hope the day of my visit will be a nice one, with warm weather and a lot of sun. The day has come and all these wishes were fulfilled: the weather in Copenhagen is amazing with a clear blue sky, and circa 27 degree Celsius in thermometers. So, Tårnet here I come; with the booking for 18:30, I arrive to the King’s Gate at about 18:00 willing to go up in the tower as well, and to enjoy the best possible weather one wish for the moments one goes for enjoying a view.
The entrance point I chose was the central one; the one giving access to the city center, channel tours and bus station for the lines 1A, 2A, 9A, 26 and 40. The entrance cannot be missed, since it is the only one, and it is a visible through its big door; beside this. there is just behind the statue representing a rider on a horse. After passing the threshold of that door, there is a sign showing the direction to the tower and restaurant. However, the access to the elevator which take you to the tower is made only after a security check; process which is pretty similar to the one in the airports, although a bit more relaxed.
From that point, an elevator takes you up the restaurant, and from there if you want to reach the highest level of the tower, you should go up the stairs. So, all in all, the itinerary is simple and easy; enter the King’s Gate, wait several minutes to be welcomed to the security check, go through security check, take the lift for a short ride, walk up few stairs and there you are: in top of the highest tower not only in Copenhagen but in the whole Denmark: Tårnet!
There are four sides from where one can enjoy the view. However, even though one visit this tower to enjoy the view, but actually the view is missing. The view one can enjoy through these four windows is not a proper view, because it is not much to be seen. Luckily there is -in front of each window- a description of what can be seen from there, the highest buildings in sight!

All the way up the tower, together with the picture session doesn’t take a lot of time, so I have time enough to arrive in time to the restaurant, looking forward to and enjoyable and fancy dinner. About my experience at the Tårnet restaurant you can read the review I wrote on TripAdvisor at http://www.tripadvisor.dk/ShowUserReviews-g189541-d7166129-r296200824-Taarnet_Restaurant-Copenhagen_Zealand.html#REVIEWS. As a short description of what I experienced in the restaurant, I can say that it was all enjoyable, stylish and not very expensive. As a funny but real fact I experienced it was that, although the rename of the place is a promise for a romantic evening, everything goes perfectly until the moment the cheese is served (if you order cheese, of course). At that moment, the cheeses look great, the same their description. Yet I was advised that for a more enjoyable experience I have to eat them from the left to right. This is what I did, but arriving at the last piece of cheese, called The Little Cristian, everything has changed. Why? because it stinks in a big way. It stinks so badly that even after I tasted it my breath smells terrible. Funny enough, that was the moment that ruined my evening, because my girlfriend never again that evening wanted to stay close to me.
Coming back to visiting the tower, there is to be appreciated that visiting the tower is free of charge.
However, even though the view didn’t level up my expectations, the experience was still enjoyable, and it is still worth visiting.
Spot'n'go!
