COPENHAGEN: The American chain restaurant TGI Fridays has opened its first Danish location at Højbroplads in downtown Copenhagen. The company said that it has plans to open five more locations in the next five years.
Fridays opened their first restaurant in New York in 1965. They now have 900 restaurants in 60 countries. The familiar red and white graphics and slogan “In here, it’s always Friday” are familiar worldwide. The chain’s menu focuses on burgers and ribs. Until now, the closest TGI Fridays was in Malmø.
