Nyhavn is (despite its name "New harbour") one of the oldest parts of Copenhagen. There is always a lot of people here in the summer, enjoying the sun or a lunch. There are many restaurants, but they are expensive and not particularly good. Do as the locals do: Bring some takeaway and maybe a few beers, and sit on the edge of the bulwark.
