Center Grillen

They offer budget-friendly burgers, hot dogs, and hearty sandwiches that hit the spot whether you choose to dine in or take away. It’s the perfect place where to eat after a night out in Nuuk.

Sunset Boulevard

This Danish chain restaurant serves up short-order favorites like burgers, sandwiches, and milkshakes, complete with chili cheese tops! Settle into their diner-style booths or grab a paper bag to take your hangover cure in Nuuk wherever you wish. They are one of the few places in town with self-serve soda, offering a refreshing treat. Bonus: their menu includes vegetarian options, catering to all dietary preferences.

Iggu Pizza

Located behind Aqqusinersuaq you’ll find the popular pizza place, ‘Iggu Pizza.’ If you like your pizza spicey, Margherita, or with the eternally divisive pineapple, Iggu Pizza is your place to go. They offer gluten and lactose-free pizzas for those of you with intolerances and allergies. Bonus: iggu is something Greenlanders say when something is really cute (it’s pronounced similarly to the Spanish word hijo). Iggu!

Bones
