Food Scene

It can't get any more local. One of the oldest coffee shops in the area - 17 years old - and still amazing. Come to chill, eat brunch, work on your computer or read a book. This place is great!

One of my favorites. Try the lunch! A Danish open sandwich with eggs will keep your hunger away for hours. It tastes amazing and it can't get any more old school typical Danish. Also coffee and beer.

If you need some delicious food on the go, choose Kødbyens Deli. They have the BEST and fresh fish'n'tips in the world! (Sorry Englishmen;)).

Just a cute and very small coffee shop. If not going there for a coffee, just have a look inside in the back - it's cute and curious. All in wood.

Tried of hanging around computers and iPads? Then go here! They serve a great cappuccino (+ one of the best slow dripping coffees too!). Their yoghurt ain't bad either - and the stove is on when cold.

Coffee, simple breakfast, teas and vinyls! Yes. Listen or buy your next vinyl while having coffee - or simply enjoy a good conversation or reading a magazine. Small, but original place!

Best homemade Italian ice cream! It's a bit pricey but worth the taste. Another great and a bit more fatless option is the Danish Paradis chain - the closest on Vesterbro Torv.

Drinks & Nightlife

A hidden little treasure. Cocktails are a bit pricey (100 dkk), but they taste amazing and you'll get a bite of that Mad Men feeling that we all crave. You can get a beer for 45 dkk too.

This is the place to dance: Dance at Mesteren & Lærlingen, or maybe you'll prefer Bakken and Jolene or KB18? Karriere Bar is also an option - and so are the newer Harvey's and KB3.

This is for you who prefer brown bars, but without the smoke. It does have a smoking area, but it's apart. The owner is awesome - Cindy is small, Chinese, and has e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g under control!

Great, great beer. It's brewed by Mikkeller themselves and therefore a bit pricey - but there's many micro brewery beers to choose from and the ambient is great! You'll love it! No smoking.

Everything Else

This is the place to hang with the Copenhagen hipsters (myself included). Buy an ice cream or a locally brewed beer at Kihoskh - or a lovely pizza from Itzi Pitzi - and sit down to enjoy a ray of sun!
