Indian Food at Bakken: Authentic Curry at Denmark’s Oldest Amusement Park

If you are visiting Bakken and wondering where to find real Indian food in Copenhagen’s northern outskirts, the answer is straightforward: Indian Bites at Dyrehavsbakken 207, Klampenborg. Indian food at Bakken does not mean a compromise on quality. Indian Bites brings the same authentic North Indian recipes, halal-certified meat, and spices imported directly from India that have earned it a 4.8-star Google rating from visitors to the world’s oldest amusement park. Whether you want a full curry lunch after the rides or a quick takeaway on your way through Dyrehaven, Indian Bites is the go-to stop at Bakken for food that actually tastes like India.

Why Indian Food Works Perfectly at Bakken

Bakken, formally known as Dyrehavsbakken, has been welcoming visitors since 1583, making it the world’s oldest operating amusement park. Millions of Danish families and international tourists pass through its gates every season, arriving by S-tog from Copenhagen or cycling through the Dyrehaven deer park. What most visitors discover quickly is that a long day at Bakken calls for something more substantial than a hot dog.

Indian Bites fills that gap with warming, fragrant curries that are substantial enough to fuel an afternoon of rides and walks. The menu is built around North Indian classics: slow-cooked sauces, aromatic spice blends, and dishes refined across more than 200,000 servings at Indian Bites locations in Denmark. A plate of Butter Chicken with basmati rice and garlic naan is exactly what a family outing calls for.

The Menu at Indian Bites Bakken

The Bakken menu focuses on the most popular North Indian dishes, priced accessibly for a day out.

Main Courses

All mains are served with basmati rice and range from 125 to 159 DKK:

• Butter Chicken (Murgh Makhani) at 149 DKK: tender chicken in a rich, mildly spiced tomato and cream sauce. The most-ordered dish at Indian Bites across both locations.
• Chicken Tikka Masala at 149 DKK: grilled chicken in a smoky, tangy masala sauce with warming spice depth.
• Lamb Curry at 159 DKK: slow-cooked lamb in a deep, aromatic sauce. The boldest flavour on the menu.
• Dal Tadka at 125 DKK: yellow lentils tempered with cumin, garlic, and ghee. The classic vegetarian option in North Indian cooking.
• Palak Paneer at 135 DKK: fresh Indian cheese in a smooth spinach sauce, lightly spiced. Vegetarian and satisfying.

Appetisers, Bread, and Drinks

Start with Samosa (2 pieces) or Vegetable Pakora, both at 49 DKK. Bread options run from plain Naan at 25 DKK to Garlic Naan at 30 DKK and Cheese Naan at 35 DKK. Round off with a Mango Lassi at 39 DKK: a chilled, sweetened yogurt and mango drink that pairs particularly well with the spicier dishes and helps cool the palate on a warm Bakken afternoon.
