I've been coming to la Banchina for the past 5 years.
Overall it's a really nice place. I've come for the sauna, breakfast, a cup of coffee and also lunch - I had their fish burger.
However, I prefer to come in the winter, early in the morning before they open, jump in the water, and then have breakfast with a cup of coffee and a book.
It can quickly get a bit too crowded, and in the summer there's a pronounced "cat walk atmosphere", with tourists filming and taking pictures - but that's just me who doesn't think it's cool.
Remember to check the quality of the bathing water. If it's been raining, KK opens the floodgates to the sewer 🫠

A really great spot. Went on two cold autumn days across my trip and had a dip and then enjoyed some tea and coffee. The vibes inside are super cozy in the colder months and the swimming area is nice and quiet, although I know in summer it is much more social and packed. A lovely place to reflect and slow down, the staff are very welcoming too.

La Banchina is magic. Rustic yet refined, it’s a small waterside café + restaurant on Refshaleøen that feels like a secret escape. The food is fresh (fish & veggies), the wine natural, the vibe relaxed, the views of the harbour perfect. Jump in the water, enjoy the wood-fired sauna, and watch the sun set with something tasty in hand. Pure hygge.

Our favourite spot of the trip! Dishes cooked up super fresh with local ingredients, love the indoor and outdoor area, very rustic and right in touch with nature. Everything we had was so good and we would definitely try this place again next time we visit

Picturesque sauna with great water access. Good privacy and fresh water for cleanup. Fantastic staff. Adding a vent for fresh air near the sauna heater would greatly improve the experience!
