Local tips
- Come in the morning if you are aiming for brunch; late mornings and early afternoons can be busy, especially on weekends and local holidays.
- If you are heading on to Frederiksborg Castle afterwards, allow extra time to sit and enjoy coffee or dessert rather than rushing your meal.
- Ask staff about any current seasonal dishes or drinks; the café often adjusts parts of the menu to match the time of year.
- Slotsarkaderne is fully indoors, so Café Kaiser is a good choice in wet or cold weather when you want to eat without stepping back outside.

Discover more about Café Kaiser
Casual café hub in the heart of Slotsarkaderne
Café Kaiser sits on the upper level of Hillerød’s Slotsarkaderne, feeling like a self‑contained café living room tucked inside a busy mall. Step past the storefront and you enter a warm space of wooden tables, padded chairs and pendant lamps, with the murmur of shoppers softened into background noise. The layout mixes smaller tables for two with larger group settings, so it works as well for a quick coffee as it does for a lingering family brunch or an early dinner. Large windows open toward the mall’s interior, giving the café a bright, open feel during the day. In the colder months, it becomes a convenient indoor refuge where you can unwind without worrying about the weather outside. The overall atmosphere is informal and approachable, somewhere you can just as easily sit with a laptop as you can celebrate a birthday brunch.From brunch plates to burgers and classic smørrebrød
The menu leans into the all‑day Danish café tradition: generous brunch, open sandwiches and solid comfort dishes. Mornings and early afternoons often revolve around brunch platters, with combinations of eggs, bacon, yogurt, cheeses, fruit and pastries served on boards or small plates. There is a strong emphasis on building meals from recognizable ingredients prepared in‑house where possible, reflecting the chain’s focus on cooking from scratch with quality produce. Later in the day, the kitchen shifts naturally into café classics. You will find burgers with house dressings, salads piled high with greens and toppings, and Danish favorites such as smørrebrød on hearty rye bread. Coffee drinks, soft drinks, wines and a small selection of cocktails and beers round out the experience, making it easy to stay for an aperitif or casual evening meal rather than just a quick bite.Local chain with a focus on homely quality
Café Kaiser in Hillerød is part of a small regional chain that started in Helsingør and has gradually expanded around North Zealand and greater Copenhagen. The concept is deliberately consistent: create a welcoming café where the food feels homely, portions are satisfying and you can recognize the style whether you are in Hillerød, Farum or Vanløse. In Hillerød, this translates into a reliable local option anchored in the everyday life of the shopping center. The kitchen’s philosophy is to prepare as much as possible from scratch, using good ingredients rather than overly complicated recipes. That means dressings, sauces and many baked items are made in‑house, and classic flavor combinations are favored over experimental twists. It is designed to be a place you can return to often, knowing roughly what to expect, whether you are grabbing take‑away or eating in.Everyday meeting place for shoppers and locals
Because of its position inside Slotsarkaderne, the café naturally attracts a mix of shoppers, local workers and families using it as a meeting point. During mid‑morning, you might find people catching up over a latte, while early afternoon often fills with lunch plates and sharing boards. Early evenings can be lively with after‑work groups and pre‑cinema diners, though the tone stays relaxed rather than rowdy. The seating is arranged to accommodate different types of visits: banquette areas that suit families with children, smaller two‑tops along the edges for couples, and movable tables that can be pushed together for celebrations. Background music sits low enough for conversation, and the indoor setting keeps noise levels predictable compared with street‑side cafés.Comfortable pause close to Hillerød’s key sights
One of Café Kaiser’s quiet advantages is its proximity to Hillerød’s main attractions while still being entirely indoors. From the shopping center it is only a short stroll to the lakes and views toward Frederiksborg Castle, so the café works well as a bookend to a day of sightseeing. At the same time, being in the mall means you have immediate access to other services and shops before or after your meal. Whether you drop in for a quick cappuccino, assemble a brunch board for a lazy morning, or wind down with a burger and a drink, Café Kaiser Hillerød functions as a comfortable, no‑fuss pause in the rhythm of the town. It is not a destination restaurant in the grand sense, but a dependable everyday spot where the combination of indoor comfort, familiar dishes and friendly service makes it easy to settle in for a while.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
