Café Dyrehaven

Café Dyrehaven, nestled in the trendy Vesterbro neighbourhood, is a cherished sidewalk café offering unpretentious fare from breakfast to dinner. The cosy old pub atmosphere, adorned with a wooden bar and quirky decor like deer antlers, provides the perfect backdrop for enjoying not only the delightful food but also a selection of beer and wine.

Granola

A beloved local breakfast spot, Granola is open until late into the night and it offers a selection of dinner options as well. Nostalgia permeates the place with vintage décor like an old coffee mill, colourful enamel signs, an old grocery counter from the long-gone days of colonial trade, and '50s and '60s music. The trendy location comes with a bit of waiting time, but take a seat at the bar and you will be shown to a table as soon as one is free.

The Living Room

With its unbeatable downtown location next to the University and all the Copenhagen hot spots, The Living Room is the perfect casual hangout venue. Bringing together the best of both worlds - delicious café treats and great cocktails, it entices you to have a drink in the cosy, dimly-lit downstairs seating area.

Paludan Bog & Café

Paludan Bog Café is the ideal spot for book lovers seeking a blend of literature and coffee. Originally a bookstore and publisher catering to students, the café evolved at the turn of the millennium to complement a good bookstore experience with coffee. Whether you're eager to catch up on reading, browse through books, or seek inspiration, Paludan Bog Café offers a perfect fusion of literary exploration and coffee enjoyment.

Bastard Café

Sometimes you need something else with your coffee, and we are not talking about pastry and cakes. Sometimes all you need is an old-fashioned board game that transports you back to the good old days. Besides the regular coffee drinks, light fare, as well as beer, Bastard Café also offers a large board game collection, with beloved games such as Monopoly and Scrabble.

Kalaset

Kalaset is a funky café where old radios adorn the walls and tasty brunch delights keep customers coming back for more. Indulge in the most delicious pancakes and savour their extraordinary burgers–they also cater to vegetarians and vegans. As the sun sets, this charming spot transitions into a vibrant bar offering the perfect recipe for a memorable evening.

Next Door Café

There are some cafés where as soon as you step in, you feel at home right away. It’s not hard to understand why that’s the case at Next Door Café. The owners, Skyler and Klaus, live next door and decided to make an extension of their living room. This explains the kitsch and quirky decoration and the comfortable chairs. Get yourself a cup of coffee and let your worries vanish when you sink into one of those. Skyler recommends the lemon squares, it’s his mom’s recipe.
