Burgers on Hillerød’s Historic Square

Halifax Burgers Hillerød sits right on Torvet, the town’s central square, where everyday life plays out against a backdrop of cobbles, shops, and the distant outline of Frederiksborg Castle. The restaurant brings a modern burger bar to this historic setting, combining North American–inspired comfort food with a distinctly Danish sense of coziness. Large windows open toward the square, so even from a booth or table inside you stay connected to the bustle outside. When the weather is kind, outdoor tables spill gently onto the plaza, turning a simple burger meal into front-row seats on Hillerød’s daily rhythm.

A Menu Built Around Choice

The heart of Halifax is its burger menu, with patties ranging from classic beef to vegetarian and vegan options based on ingredients like sweet potato, beetroot, peas, and black beans. You can often swap patties between fixed burger combinations or opt for your favorite toppings in a salad-style bowl instead of a bun. Side dishes are treated with the same attention: crisp sweet potato fries, classic vinegar chips, dips including vegan mayo, and the occasional seasonal twist. Milkshakes, soft drinks, juices, local beers, and simple cocktails round out the taphouse feel, making it as suitable for a casual drink as for a full meal.

Comfortable Space for Families and Friends

Inside, Halifax Burgers Hillerød mixes clean, modern lines with warm wood, subdued lighting, and playful decorative touches that nod to both American diner culture and Scandinavian design. Seating ranges from small tables for couples to larger arrangements that suit groups celebrating a birthday or ending a day of sightseeing. Families are well catered for, with high chairs, a changing table, and child-friendly burger options that scale the menu down without losing the fun. The open, informal layout helps keep the atmosphere relaxed even at busy times, and wheelchair access and an accessible restroom mean the space works for a wide range of visitors.

Between Castle, Lake, and Shopping Streets

Part of the appeal here is location. Step outside and you are just a short stroll from Frederiksborg Castle and its lake, as well as the surrounding parklands and gardens. Many people tie a meal here to a castle visit, a walk by Slotssøen, or a cinema showing nearby. The square itself often hosts local market stalls and seasonal events, so you may find yourself eating alongside flower sellers, craft stands, or food trucks. At other times, the view is simply of everyday Hillerød: cyclists gliding past, shoppers crossing the plaza, and the castle towers hovering above the rooftops when you glance down the lake.

Casual Dining from Lunch to Late Evening

Halifax Burgers Hillerød opens from late morning, making it as useful for a substantial lunch as for an early dinner. Service continues into the evening, with happy-hour offers on mixed drinks later in the day, and the kitchen turning out burgers, snacks, and desserts until close. Whether you drop in for a quick bowl and a juice, linger over a full three-course burger feast, or just pause for coffee and cake while you plan the rest of your time in North Zealand, the restaurant is designed to be easy-going. It offers a straightforward, familiar concept, but the central setting, thoughtful vegetarian and vegan options, and comfortable interior give it a local character that fits neatly into Hillerød’s small-town charm.

Local tips

  • Ask about swapping in a vegetarian or vegan patty for many of the burger combinations, or serve it as a salad-style bowl if you prefer to skip the bun.
  • In summer, request an outdoor table to enjoy people-watching on Torvet and a partial view toward Frederiksborg Castle and the lake.
  • If you are visiting with small children, make use of the high chairs, changing facilities, and dedicated kids’ burger options to keep the meal simple.
  • Consider sharing portions of fries and sides; they are generous, and ordering a mix lets you sample options such as sweet potato fries or seasoned chips.
  • For busier evenings or when planning around a castle visit or cinema showing, booking a table in advance helps secure your preferred time.
