Gasoline Grill | Burger bar | VisitCopenhagen
This former gas station now burger joint close to Kgs. Nytorv in central Copenhagen is one of or even THE winner of the burger war happening in Copenhagen these years.
www.visitcopenhagen.comHere’s the latest I can share about Gasoline Grill in Copenhagen.
- Gasoline Grill’s flagship location at Landgreven 10 in central Copenhagen is slated to close in 2026 due to a major underground parking renovation, with the city investing over 115 million Danish kroner in the project. The closure marks the end of an era for the iconic site, though the chain will continue operating at nine other locations in Greater Copenhagen.[1][2]
- The plans involve demolishing the site (formerly prized under the Byens Sjæl cultural protection) to make way for redevelopment beneath the underground parking facility, and future use of the land would be subject to public bidding; there’s no guaranteed return for Gasoline Grill at the same spot after the renovation.[2][1]
- Gasoline Grill opened in 2016 inside a retro gas station and gained international recognition for its burgers, with ongoing operations at other Copenhagen locations/areas during and after the Landgreven site’s redevelopment.[1][2]
- In related news, Gasoline Grill has done international pop-ups, including a London pop-up at The Standard hotel, highlighting the brand’s expansion beyond Copenhagen even while facing changes at its original site.[3]
If you’d like, I can compile a concise timeline of key dates and a map of current Gasoline Grill locations in the Copenhagen area, or pull the latest official statements from Copenhagen Municipality and Gasoline Grill for exact timelines.
Illustration: Gasoline Grill is a Copenhagen icon that began in a repurposed gas station and became a culinary landmark; its Landgreven location’s closure is tied to a large urban redevelopment project beneath an underground parking facility.[1]
