Food scene

These past 5-6 years, Danes have been obsessed with their burgers. You’ll find an endless array of burger restaurants around — some better than others. If interested, I suggest to go to either Gasoline Grill, Jagger or Tommi’s Burger Joint.

Feeling indecisive about today’s dinner? Go browse at the Meatpacking District for whatever tickles your fancy. You’ll find so many different restaurants there!

Another browsing option would be the to-go options on Værnedamsvej. Here you’ll find small spots serving delicious food. Helge’s Ost has all the cheese a heart can desire, while Otto’s and Dal Forno make some of the best pizza’s in town. This is also where you’ll find the before mentioned Gasoline Grill burgers. FYI: None of these spots have more than two-three seats for guests.

Wine & beers

On a sunny day, go to the outdoor Café Riga on Lithauens Plaza. A wonderfully cute little spot with a selection of wines and beers. Grilled cheese on the menu too!

Your closest spot for quickly getting a glass of wine or perhaps a soda in the afternoon sun, would be Woodah on Abel Cathrines Gade. They have recently changed name, but on Maps, it still says Woodah.

Morning Coffee

Best coffee around is definitely Prolog just over at the Meat Packing District. When feeling snacky, get Prolog’s croissant to go along. It’s delicious.

If what you desire for your morning coffee is rather an atmosphere of romantic cuteness that’ll make your heart flutter, I suggest Central Cafe. This little gem is tucked underneath the charming one-room hotel Central Hotel

Swimming

Did you come to Copenhagen during one of those rare weeks of the year with great weather? Go for a quick swim down on Havneholmen (or Kalvebod Brygge), where locals swim from the piers. Getting there takes 5 min on bike.

Movie Theatres

Tiny local cinema Vester Vov Vov on Absalonsgade shows art house movies — often with English subtitles! A wonderfully charming theatre.

Evening walk

Head down to ‘the lakes’ by the Planetarium and go for an evening stroll with the rest of the Copenhageners. Walking around all four ‘lakes’ is around 45 min.
