Local tips

  • Aim for a terrace table in good weather; the harbour views and soft evening light over the boats are a big part of the experience.
  • Seafood and fish dishes make the most of the waterside setting, but ask staff for daily specials if you want something seasonal.
  • Book ahead for weekend evenings or group dinners, especially in summer when marina restaurants in Rungsted fill quickly.
  • If you prefer a quieter meal, consider a midweek lunch when the harbour is calmer and the bistro feels more laid-back.
  • Allow time for a stroll along the marina before or after your meal to enjoy the coastal atmosphere and changing light over the Øresund.

Waterfront Dining on Rungsted Marina

Bistro No. 22 sits directly on Rungsted Havn, a yacht-filled marina on North Zealand’s coastline where the atmosphere blends seaside calm with gentle buzz. From its corner at number 22, the bistro opens out toward the masts and moorings, giving you a close connection to the water whether you sit indoors by the windows or out on the harbourside terrace. The restaurant feels very much part of harbour life. In summer, sailboats ease in and out while people stroll the quayside with ice creams and coffee; in colder months the scene quiets, but the water and sky keep shifting colours outside the glass. It is a place where you can follow the rhythm of the harbour as much as the flow of your meal.

Casual Nordic Brasserie Flavours

The kitchen works in a relaxed brasserie spirit, leaning on classic dishes prepared with Nordic sensibilities. Fish and shellfish feature prominently, reflecting the maritime setting: think pan-fried fillets, steamed mussels or prawns paired with crisp salads and bright sauces. Meat lovers are just as well served with burgers, steaks or slow-cooked cuts, often matched to creamy potatoes, grilled vegetables or rich jus. Portions are generous without feeling heavy, and the style is approachable rather than experimental. You can come for a simple main and a glass of wine or settle in for several courses that stretch over a whole evening. Fresh bread, well-made sauces and neat plating give familiar dishes a touch of refinement.

Sunlit Terraces and Harbour Views

One of the bistro’s main draws is its outdoor seating facing the marina. On fine days the terrace fills with the sound of clinking cutlery and quiet conversation, backed by the creak of mooring ropes and the slap of small waves against hulls. Overhead coverings or tented arrangements often extend the terrace season, keeping the harbourside experience possible even when temperatures dip. Inside, large windows ensure you rarely lose sight of the water. Tables are positioned to make the most of the view, and a soft, modern palette keeps the focus on what is happening outside. Even on grey days, the interplay of light on the water adds a spacious feel to the room.

Wine, Drinks and Unhurried Evenings

Bistro No. 22 keeps a focused selection of wines, with options by the glass and bottle chosen to work well with seafood and grilled dishes. Lighter whites and sparkling wines suit sunlit lunches, while fuller reds complement meat and richer plates later in the day. Classic cocktails and non-alcoholic choices round out the drinks list, making it easy to stay for another round as the harbour lights come on. The bistro’s long daily opening hours support everything from late-morning lunches to early dinners and slow, late services. It is as natural a stop for a relaxed midweek meal as it is for a slightly dressier weekend occasion.

Groups, Celebrations and Local Gatherings

Beyond the main dining room, Bistro No. 22 offers dedicated private and function spaces on the upper level, designed for celebrations, company dinners and family events. These rooms are arranged to keep a sociable, convivial feel while giving groups more privacy and control over their menu and pacing. For individual travellers, couples and families, the bistro works equally well as a casual harbour stop: children can watch the boats, solo diners can linger over a book and a glass of wine, and friends can gather around larger tables that hold plenty of shared plates. Its setting on the harbour makes it a natural anchor point in any exploration of Rungsted’s waterfront and nearby coastline.
