Gate-side breakfast in Terminal 2 starts with Lagkagehuset
This Danish bakery chain in Terminal 2 sits airside, handy if you're flying SAS or another Schengen carrier from CPH. You’ll see the glass cases stacked with rye loaves, pastries, and cakes as soon as you clear security in T2. Seating is limited and spills into the concourse, so think quick sit-down or takeaway rather than a long meal.
Coffee prices sit in typical Copenhagen airport territory: expect around 35–45 DKK for an espresso-based drink and a bit more for larger lattes or cappuccinos. Pastries like kanelsnegle (cinnamon swirls) and tebirkes usually run in the 20–30 DKK range, with sandwiches and smørrebrød-style options priced higher. Card payments are standard here; you won’t need cash.
Food leans heavily Danish: dense rugbrød, flaky wienerbrød, and cream cakes made fresh daily. For a quick breakfast before a 07:00–09:00 departure, grab a kanelsnegl and a filter coffee and you’re in and out in under 10 minutes if the queue is short. For something more filling around lunch, go for a rye-bread sandwich with salmon or roast beef rather than another sweet pastry.
Lagkagehuset opens early in the morning to catch first wave departures out of Terminal 2 and typically stays open into the evening bank of flights; you’re covered for both 06:00 coffee and a 19:00 pre-flight snack. Turnover is high, so pastries tend to be fresher earlier in the day, especially before 11:00, when trays cycle quickly.
Lines build right after security peaks, especially on Monday and Friday between roughly 06:30–08:30. If you land in CPH and connect through Terminal 2 with a 45-minute window, grab something to go and eat at your gate instead of waiting for a table. Tip: order from the pastry case first, then coffee, so you’re not blocking the counter while deciding.
