Café Royal (Radisson Collection Royal Hotel)

The Spis take

The bar of the Radisson Collection Royal Hotel, Arne Jacobsen's total-design 1960 icon and the birthplace of the Egg and Swan chairs. Café Royal / the Royal Bar is more a design pilgrimage than a great drinks destination: come for the mid-century pedigree, the restored Jacobsen interiors and a coffee, pastry or nightcap in beautiful surroundings. Prices match the hotel, and you're paying for the setting as much as the glass.
