Christenings at Tholstrup
The day the family gathers
Gather the family for a christening in Copenhagen
A christening is one of the first big occasions to gather family and friends around the little newcomer.
At Tholstrup we create the setting for a day with plenty of time to be together, around a laid table, good food and the people you want to share the day with.
At our four restaurants in Copenhagen you can hold exactly the christening that suits you, from the intimate, informal christening lunch to a larger family lunch.
With a focus on good food and personal hosting, we make sure the day runs as it should, so you can concentrate on your child’s first big party.
A christening your way
A christening brings generations together around the same table. At Tholstrup you can celebrate the day in atmospheric surroundings in the middle of Copenhagen, from historic dining rooms and intimate private rooms to courtyards where the doors open when the weather allows.
Each of our four restaurants has its own history and atmosphere. We lay the table, take care of the food and all the practical details, so there is time to enjoy the meal and celebrate the day with your guests.
