ABOUT US

Walking up a regular looking spiral staircase, to the rooftop of the old car auction house Nellemannshuset, we welcome you to our idyllic rooftop farm and eatery. It all started in 2014 when ØsterGro was founded as the first community rooftop farm in Copenhagen, in the middle of the wonderful neighbourhood Østerbro.

The idea behind ØsterGro is to inspire and involve by being one of the few spots in the city where you can actually see a real farm in action and participate in the process.

Every Tuesday our rooftop is our volunteer day and people from all over the world help us around the farm. Every year our 40 members share the weekly harvest, for the duration of the harvest season.

After hosting numerous lunches and dinners, team ØsterGro decided it was time to move towards an all-year-round communal eatery. We wanted to invite even more people to share our magical rooftop with, and so Gro Spiseri was born.

With only one long table in our greenhouse, we can guarantee you the cosiest breakfast, lunch, and dining experience - serving the best of the season in the middle of our urban farm.

With a small team of 8 people, we create a social and informal food experience for you. Our menu is inspired by the seasons and all ingredients are delivered to us by local growers, producers, slow impact fisherman and hunters - everything with a love and care for nature.

Even though the majority of our rooftop’s crops are shared amongst the members, our team utilizes most of the flowers, herbs, and honey from the farm.

we look forward to see you on the rooftop

OFTEN ASKED QUESTIONS

Children in the restaurant:

We love when you bring your kids - though in the evening, the atmosphere is more intimate due to our longboard style and shared servings. Bring your kids for breakfast and lunch instead and we will then have the time to introduce them to our sweet chickens and rabbits.

As all guests sit together at one table, you also need to book seats for children. Thank you for your understanding.

Accessibility
If you need help getting to the roof, we have an elevator to take you up on the roof-top. Just leave a note in your booking, then we will make sure to get you safe to the roof.
