Terrible open air cinema. Don't buy tickets if the film is shown in "Himmel" - bad sound, noise from outside, distracting light, and even birds coming in. Worst cinema experience in 35 years!

Brunch on sundays is 225 dkk for a super buffet! A very very good place to go!

Like the vibe very much and I ran into a small ceremony

There is a new roof terrace that has an amazing view of Kongens Have. You can also watch movies on the roof (Himmelbio) - I'd recommend to dress as warmly as you can, as Denmark is windy (there are blankets available if needed). Also don't book too close to the back row as you might be right next to a speaker and get unbalanced sound - if it's not full you can move seats though. Incidentally my phone died and I couldn't show my digital ticket but the guy on the front desk kindly printed my ticket for me. Wonderful place!

Cozy place for movie film screenings and film events. A plus for the themed months for worldwide cinema abd documentaries, from well known blockbuster movies to lesser known indie films on a shoestring budget. Hidden gem in the city of Copenhagen just across the king’s garden and a skip away from multiple cafés, museums and castles. And the library inside on the first floor is worth a visit!

DFI - The Danish Film Institute's Cinematek shows a wide range of film. Check out the monthly program. Recently they opened a new open air cinema, café, restaurant etc. on the roof top with a beautiful panoramic view. I recomment you check it out - it's awsome 👍

Amazing place for all generations, and especially Børnebiffen short films for the youngest audience is an enjoyable step towards developing passion about quality cinema. The ambience of film-lovers hive mind, beyond nationalities, cultures or age. A cosy cafe with everything you'd need, incl. ginger ale. Can't wait to visit the rooftop terrace to be opened this year

No matter what you're into (I'm into horror of all of the ages, but you might be psyched on musicals), Cinemateket has it. The array of films are incredible. It's not just the b/w films, the exploitation films, the arthouse, the animation, Spike Lee joints or the Bollywood madness. It's all of it and much more. It's the film house for all of us film lovers and cineasts who truly love film. But! What the hell's going on with the bright ground floor? It's like they asked the interior decorator not to include atmosphere of any kind. And when the decorator went downstairs, they were very adamant on keeping the extremely depressing basement. As if they thought it's better to have suicidal thoughts when partying (the parties are always down here) than to enjoy the DJ playing old Depeche Mode. And who wants to be happy listening to Depeche Mode, right?

Dejlig biograf! En af de bedre i København. Desuden har de ofte events med visning af kortfilm og lignende. Deres restaurant SULT serverer lækker brunch i weekenden, som virkelig kan anbefales, selvom den er lidt pebret.

" We don't need no education We don't need no thought control No dark sarcasm in the class room Teachers leave those kids alone Hey, teachers! Leave those kids alone!" Pink Floyd bruser en i møde. Animation og Bob Geldorf I barsk og uskøn blanding. Det er bare noget helt andet at se "The Wall" i biografen end på en tv-skærm. Det er stærke sager. Og i biografens mørke går musik og billede rent ind. Det er forcen ved Cinemateket. Muligheden for at se klassikere på stort lærred og med god lyd. Det er jeg ganske enkelt fan af. Det er altid værd at holde øje med Cinemateket. Her er der kun store filmoplevelser på programmet og ofte med et lille foredrag eller præsentation af filmen først.

I really enjoyed my trip to Cinemateket! I went with my film club to see "Under the Skin," and was amazed by the huge screen and the audio quality! I also had a slice of lemon cake from the restaurant in the building, and it was phenomenal! I would definitely like to come back here :)
