Came to try Grod again after 10 years. The first time in 2014, it was after weeks of not having much Asian food while backpacking through Europe and I was craving familiarity when I saw "congee" on the menu which automatically peaked my interest. The rice porridge with peanuts, soy, sesame oil and cilantro were all what I am used to eating at home. I enjoyed it so much that I came back a second time before departing CPH. Now in 2024, I wanted to try it again to see if it was purely nostalgia or if I still feel the same way. We decided to order the Mushroom Risotto and Chicken Congee. I noticed there is two types of congee on the menu now, plain or with chicken. The mushroom risotto was very good, there was some acidity to it which was nice and quite large a portion. I almost couldn't finish it. Comforting bowl of goodness to have in the morning that's also easy on the stomach. The chicken congee included all of the same accoutrements but there may be a different cooking method used. I recall previously, the congee had plain rice porridge but this time the porridge was tinted light brown likely from cooking with soy sauce. The first few bites were delicious. The addition of the chicken made it a heartier meal. Towards the middle/end though we could not help but notice the porridge was getting saltier and saltier making us down liters of water. Due to this, we did not finish the bowl of porridge as it was too salty for us. I think it still had the essence and soul of congee but it may have been even better with less soy or no soy in the rice porridge at all and have the soy sauce on the side for those who want to add to their taste. I may just be in love with the memory of Grod.
Absolute delight of a place! It is located inside the TorvehallerneKBH food market. There were quite a few sweet and savory options but we were in a mood for the latter so we ordered the Chicken Congee which looked quite interesting - it has chicken, peanuts, sesame, spring onions etc. The picture I took does not do justice on how delicious this bowl was! So much so, we made it a point to recreate this dish once back home. If you love porridge, you have to come here!!
Healthy and delicious... We got porridge and overnight oats and they were both delicious. We added strawberries to the overnight oats for about $1.50 and it was worth it. Coffee was also great. You order at the counter and they bring the food to the table. They have an English menu. The people were nice. It is a nice comfortable and modern store. We felt very comfortable here. It gets packed. We really enjoyed it. We went twice.
Located inside Torvehallerne, was walking distance from our hotel so had the chance to try a few different dishes. Order at the register and grab a seat at the high tops or counter. Service is friendly and quick. Overnight Oats - Good, filling, and healthy. Pretty straightforward dish. Tastes exactly as you would expect with fresh ingredients. This has me inspired to make oats at home more. Mushroom barley-otto bowl- liked this the most. I don't eat barley often, and have never had it as a risotto so this was new for me. The pickled mushrooms and onions, truffle mayo, and other misc ingredients complimented each other oddly well. Flavors I haven't tried combined together before so I was pleasantly surprised how well it worked. Seasonal kale risotto (seasonal)- not very good. would not recommend.
I ordered the oat porridge one + a chai latte since I knew I wanted to try porridge while I was here. They didn't have the porch with all the toppings, so I figured I would go with one of the more popular ones. I was so so happy with this purchase. Who could've guessed oatmeal could taste this good??
This restaurant does mostly does oatmeal, acai, porridges and pasta. I opted for the acai bowl, which was okay. The peanut butter was very natural and thick, and complemented the acai sweetness, and they were generous with the blueberries and banana but the acai wasn't particularly sweet or mindblowing. It was quite expensive as well for an acai bowl. The service was fast as well and the workers all very kind. The ambiance was clean and pop artist inspired, playing lots of Kanye and Frank Ocean. Super cool Gen-Z decor.
My airbnb was really close to Torvehallerne (a two-building food hall with farmer's market outside) and this place noticeably had a long line right at opening. For breakfast they focus on acai bowls and porridge that you can customize. It's a really great option for someone trying to make healthy choices while wanting some variety. In terms of seating, they have bar stools around the perimeter of the building, and benches all around the area (obviously beware of the birds!)
I'm not much of a porridge person, but my friend who recently moved to Copenhagen would not stop selling me on this shop and I can see why. This isn't your mama's porridge and if Goldie Locks was real, she would take one bite of this and realize it was just eighth. I ordered the barley risotto, which came with a mountain of ingredients garnishing the sides (pickled onions, sautéed mushrooms, curly kale, roasted almonds, and thinly shredded cabbage) planted on top of the large porridge bowl. This delicious dish was perfectly seasoned and had a textured surprise with each bite, which provided the right hygge vibes for the day. Unfortunately the bowl only came in one large size in contrast to the rest of the options, so I didn't get to finishing. I also got a freshly pressed juice which provided a refreshing break from the earthy porridge.
The perfect place for risotto or oatmeal lovers (of which I am both!). We shared the oat porridge and the mushroom barley risotto. They were both delicious.. especially the caramel sauce that came with the oat porridge. I only wish I could have come back for a second time during my time in Copenhagen.
This place was delicious! My husband and I were already feeling the pains of prices to eat out in Copenhagen...but luckily Grod was totally affordable and yummy! We ordered the #1 with caramel sauce, apple, almonds and oats and the second time, the All the toppings option. The ladies working here are hustling and serving up some delicious cooked oats. Everything was freshly made and tasted great. We wanted to try to the savory porridge they serve for lunch but will have to try next time! Seating here is limited but if you're able to snag a seat at the bar area- grab your oats and get inspired by reading their cookbook! Grod is located in the Torvehallen market place.
I never thought I would be saying this about porridge of all things. But, Grød truly opened my eyes in terms of how I could prepare my daily oatmeal. We tried Grød at two locations: the Torvehallerne market and at 7Eleven. The market, I ordered the Oat Porridge which came with apples, roasted almonds and caramel sauce, my mom had the All In! and my dad had the oat waffle. All of us (mostly) left satisfied. My picky father loved his waffle. And I really enjoyed the porridge I had. The oats perfectly cooked, the apples and almonds gave it a nice textural contrast. Plus the caramel, which was more like a dulce de leche added the perfect amount of sweetness without being too sweet. My mom was a bit ambivalent because the All In was too sweet. But to be fair, All In includes all of their toppings. Including chocolate and caramel so her assessment was fair! The Grød at 7Eleven had this wonderful chia pudding, layered with yogurt, natural peanut butter, a berry compote and nuts and I was obsessed. So simple, yet so wholesome. I found a cup at the airport and proceeded to import it back to the States. Overall, it was definitely worth a visit (or 2) to have my mind blown. Grød may not have intended it but this lil Westerner is now leveling up her oats game thanks to their menu! read more

Great place to grab a bite in Torvehallernes. Had the porridge #1 and love there was a small size for this one! Came with apples, homemade caramel & roasted almonds on the porridge (55dk). Filling, hot and delicious! read more

I felt like I died and went to oatmeal heaven... and I don't even usually like oatmeal. Really must try. Great ideas for you to try these toppings at home! Best try "all in" option for all toppings. They also have 3 grain option. Look it up. Chicken rice porridge was great and my Asian wife loved it :) read more
I know this sounds crazy. But I love oatmeal. Grød makes far and away the most delicious and satisfying oatmeal or Grød that I have ever tasted. The bowl I had was super creamy with a silk like consistency. Topped with caramel, diced apple and roasted almonds. Unbelievable. I honestly can't stop thinking about it. Grod also features all kinds of oat and rice puddings and porridges from sweet to savory that I look forward to trying soon. Grod is a must visit for breakfast or lunch when in Copenhagen. I can't wait to go back. read more

Holy hipster, Batman! For all of you visiting from the States, this place has Pacific Northwest hipsters written all over it. A stall in a food market that sells artisan porridge, am I in an episode of Portlandia? After several days of eating too many pastries, I was in the mood for something a bit lighter. The crisp fall weather called for something warm, and this porridge stand came highly recommended on Yelp. The prices listed are for a "regular" size, and the "large" is 10 dkk more. The regular is enough for a snack, but if you are looking for a full meal, I would go with the large. There are both sweet and savory options, and we tried the Special Porridge (savory/sweet) and the Daal (savory). The Daal was nontraditional, but absolutely delicious. It was topped with a thick sour cream, which added a nice creamy, sour element. It also had almonds, which seemed odd, but they added some necessary texture. The Special Porridge was good, but something I could easily make at home - I wouldn't call it "special". The toppings were the best part. The service was a bit cold, but that may have been on account of our ordering in English. It also took a lot longer than you would think to scoop up two cups of porridge. Had I not been en route to Italy, I would have tried the risotto. It looked amazing! I would definitely stop in again on a crisp day in Copenhagen. read more
We went to the Grød Torvehallerne location on a Friday morning--the market/food hall was just opening for the day so it wasn't crowded at all, and we were able to order almost immediately. It was a really nice day out so we opted to order as takeaway and grabbed a table outside. Between 2, we split the Oat Porridge and we still almost couldn't finish! The apple bits, and roasted almonds were really fresh, and the oats weren't overcooked; but with that being said, the Oat Porridge was only good, not amazing. I liked Grød, but if I could do it over, I would gladly skip this Bookmark. Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of the place, but with limited time to spend/eat/explore in Copenhagen, there are other more unique breakfast options. read more

Out of all the food I had while traveling throughout Scandinavia, Grød has been one of my favorites. We tried both their sweet and savory bowls - the mushroom-barley otto and the all in porridge and I'd have to say it was the two best porridge dishes I've ever had in my life (not exaggerating). All their toppings are fresh and even the risotto bowls are each made to order. The barley-otto was topped with what tasted like pickled mushrooms and it really hit the spot with all the cheesy, gooey-ness. If you're getting a sweet breakfast bowl, I highly recommend throwing in the caramel sauce along with your other toppings. It is SO delicious. I crave this everyday.. read more

I'm absolutely obsessed with this place! Their porridge options are so simple, but incredibly delicious and filling. My favorite is the Oat Porridge II and add peanut butter (ah-mazing), banana, and cocoa nibs. I also recommend the açaí bowl and chia special. The menu changes a bit seasonally, so there are always fresh options. There are several locations throughout Copenhagen. The Norrebro location is super cozy as is the Frederiksberg location. And of course, the location in the Glass Markets (Torvehallerne) is right in the heart of the city. I wish Grød existed in the States! read more

It seems so simple, but somehow I still find myself thinking about the delicious bowl of porridge I had here. I quickly came to realize that food in Copenhagen is pretty pricey, so this place is actually a value compared to lots of other options. The service was fast and friendly and the meal was just what I needed. Apples, almonds, and a caramel sauce (I'd literally eat a gallon of it by itself) mixed into a bowl of perfectly cooked oats resulted in a perfect and filling breakfast on a cold morning in Copenhagen. read more

This place was absolutely incredible! My friend and I were visiting Copenhagen for two days during the end of October/beginning of November of 2018; when the temperature dropped rather suddenly and we found ourselves looking for something filling for breakfast (while on the budgets of travelling students), Grød definitely came through. We both ordered the small portions of the "make your own" porridge -- make sure you choose to add skyr! it's incredible and makes the meal even more filling -- and took them to go since there wasn't much seating available around the stand itself (though that isn't enough of a complaint to knock a star). Affordable. Delicious. Well worth the visit if you're looking for breakfast in the area. read more
Ok before you look too far in the review. Answer this question. Do you like oatmeal or porridge? If you said "no," find another place for breakfast. This place specializing in porridge which is a typical breakfast in Denmark. The porridge is "creamy" but I'm not sure if they actually cook the oats with milk. I got the Porridge 2 which had 3 toppings, their homemade granola, cooked cinnamon apples and yogurt. I liked it. Oatmeal is one of the breakfasts that is in my rotation so I appreciated that they were elevating a simple dish. I don't think it's a breakfast that I would want to have for brunch, where I typically treat myself, but I would be happy to eat it as a regular breakfast. Luckily we didn't have to wait in a huge line. I probably would have left if there was a long wait. They also had lunch items that aren't porridge that looked interesting as well! read more

I heard that we must try the Nordic porridge during our stay in Denmark, so my husband and I decided to visit Grød, which seemed to be a popular porridge establishment with a ton of vegan options, last night. We got the grøds fritter (grøds fritters), which was 4 crispy fritters with mild sriracha-dip as appetizer, and shared the aspargesrisotto (asparagus risotto) topped with finely grated ravost, pea shoots, lemon vinaigrette and black pepper and the svampebygotto (mushroom barley-otto) that had pickled mushrooms, ravost, thyme, pea shoots and black pepper. Both porridges had sour notes from the lemon vinaigrette and pickled mushrooms, which was unexpected, but were delicious. Our favorite was the fritters, which had soft textures with a nice, savory flavor. Overall, I thought that this was the perfect light meal to have after our long flight, and I would definitely revisit to try their morning menu! read more
I've been here twice now and both times were delicious! The first time I went I got a porridge with peanut butter, chocolate, and hazelnuts. I thought the porridge itself was really special and I loved the chocolate and peanut butter combination...I think I'll get like banana or something next time though because the hazelnuts weren't working for me but that's my own fault. I kinda wish they had a few suggested options of three topping combos that work well together but whatever. Anyways I loved this place so much that I decided to come back again the next day and try their beetroot risotto. As a huge fan of beets and of risotto and of cheese this dish was a homerun. I finished it in less than 5 minutes because it was sooo good. read more

Items Selected: Oat Porridge #2 - Organic Oats, Water, Organic Whole Milk, Apple Vanilla Compote, Skyr, Grød's Granola Gluten Free 3 Grain Porridge - Organic Oats, Quinoa, Chia, Water, Organic Amond Milk, Peanut Butter, Caramel Sauce, Cocoa Nibs If one were pitching "Restaurant concepts guaranteed to fail" stateside it seems Organic Porridge Bar would rank high on that list, but for those who enjoy a good bowl of Oats in the morning there are few things more comforting and in Copenhagen Grød looks to capitalize on that fact by offering both Breakfast and Dinner versions composed of top quality ingredients. Originally a single location offering just Organic Oats, Housemade Granola and a few additional toppings, but since growing into a small chain that features everything from Gluten-Free Porridge to Congee with a highly regarded cookbook available so that those with the time and inclination can replicate the recipes at home, it was just prior to Grød's 9:00am Sunday opening at Torvehallerne that a few guests had already lined up, a trio of small tables soon to be filled along with the countertop. Designed like a quick-service concept, the menu divided into morning versus day and available in English or Dutch, Grød at the Market employs just a single young woman taking on the quadruple role of server, cook, cashier and barista, the potential to get backed up a very real one that quickly sees wait times as long as forty minutes, the fact that Coffee as well as the Gluten-Free Porridge must be made to order further complicating the matter and seeing several potential customers walk away with those sales lost. Glad to have arrived early, a seat at the far end of the counter allowing one to watch what is actually a surprisingly intensive amount of prep-work, those seeking to get a good taste of what Grød is about are encouraged to bring a friend to share, or at least to try a couple of the smaller bowls, several suggested combinations offered by number or as an "all-in" option, though those looking to customize are free to do so with up to three 'toppings' at the base price and an additional one for 10DKK or 3 for twenty Kroner. Certified Organic and careful to avoid contamination, a fairly impressive thing given the limitations in space, it was with two bowls prepared in approximately ten minutes that the tasting got started, "Oat Porridge #2" a creamy Bowl mixed with housemade Granola, tangy Yogurt and Apples reduced with Vanilla while the combination of specially processed Oats, Quinoa and Chia Seeds boiled down thick and sticky, a situation furthered by the DIY-addition of Peanut Butter, Caramel Sauce and Cocoa Nibs that tasted a lot like a Snickers without all the added Sugar. read more
Grød is my favorite place to eat in the glass market in Copenhagen! I love coming here for breakfast, brunch, or lunch and just enjoy a yummy meal! Grød is located in the glass market and that is basically the central market of Copenhagen. It is located in the second building and it can get very crowded. They do not have many seating options, so you often have to take your food to go when you come here, but it is okay. Also, there stealing options are very limited so if you come here with more than one person, you really cannot eat here..but it is not that Grød is a small restaurant..it is just that it is in the glass market. My favorite thing at Grød is the porridge. I love making my own porridge and getting a medium porridge with banana, peanut butter, and chocolate chips..it is heaven. Grød has the best porridge in town and it is the glass market..so Grød could not be better! read more
We came here for breakfast because our hostel was right beside it. There aren't much tables and it's just bar stools but it wasn't too crowded. They specialize in porridge but also do skyr (type of yogurt) and lunch as well. If you order the porridge you can choose your toppings. They also do vegan and gluten-free porridge! Went for the skyr, it came with Apple, homemade granola and ginger syrup. Expected a little more variety of fruit but the skyr was much better than I am used to from Germany and the granola and the syrup was bomb! Not cheap but I'd definitely recommend Grød! read more
