    Sour fruity beer

    Nice atmosphere. Great service. I got a vegetarian burger which was very good and the rest of the family got burgers which they all enjoyed. Our youngest son loves steaks and the 5 stars is because he loved his burger. We also shared an order of French fries which were good. None of us loved the corn but it was still eaten. We normally would have had dessert but we were admittedly too full to order anything else.

    Delicious burger. Loved the house soda. I didn't find the restaurant pretentious at all and very clearly labeled which side was pick up and which was dine in. Every component of the burger was delicious. My husband got the fish sandwich which was also good although didn't really showcase the fish. I would get the burger ;) As a side note, those little fried shrimps are meant to be eaten head and legs on. Not for me but my husband loved them.

    You know you're in for a treat when chefs behind Noma decided to open up a burger joint and POPL did NOT disappoint. Get the cheeseburger combo with local cola 150 DKK, a side of chili Mayo dipping sauce 15 DKK and pickles 55 DKK. Reservations are highly recommended for the restaurant (they do accept walk ins) however I'd opt for takeout and just sit outside.

    Actual rating 4.5. During the COVID pandemic, restaurant noma closed its doors. In order to keep afloat during these times they did the following - 1) prepayment vouchers to be redeemed for future visits and 2) open its doors as a burger + wine bar. So for much of 2020 the restaurant literally just served burgers, wine and beer. Think the boujie version of In-N-Out Burger. The Danes fell absolutely in love with the concept so much that the restaurant got as much visitors in 6 weeks for burgers as it did in 6 years for the restaurant proper. So when noma decided to reopen its doors for its regular menu, the burger spinoff found a permanent space in the neighborhood of Christianshavn. It was given its name "POPL", the Latin word for "community of people", which was its overall goal. Secondly the name also refers to poplar wood, a "nod to our approach and our great respect for nature." Realistically ~150DKK/$25USD burgers can inspire conviviality a lot more as opposed to a ~2800DKK/$450USD tasting menu. Though do keep in mind the sticker shock of eating in CPH, a feature shared when traveling in the Nordic countries. Your choices are either for dine-in or for to go/takeaway - there are more choices for dining in. There are benches by the water for take-away should you wish to eat there BUT the dedicated dining space has more options on the menu, especially when it comes to the side dishes and the alcohol options. -1 star for the lack of communication regarding this. BURGERS - Cheeseburger (Organic beef from free range cattle with red onion and cheddar, 150DKK [~$23USD]). From noma - the organic Danish beef comes from three farms located on the west coast of Denmark by Vadehavet, where the cattle roam and graze freely to enrich the existing wildlife and support the health of the soil. - Vegetarian burger (Fermented quinoa from noma's fermentation lab, same price). The burger is unique that it is made from cooked quinoa that's been inoculated with tempeh spores and left to ferment overnight. Before serving, it is brushed with a glaze of yeast garum, fava bean shoyu and smoked vegan butter. I should have had this in retrospect- not only does it taste better but this is also more signature "noma". - Fries 45DKK/$7USD - Cookie 45DKK/$7USD - dips (herb or chili mayo 10DKK/$2USD) The burger is delicious and filling and as a person who admires a businesses approach to sustainability I love the concept. The fries are also delicious as it maintained its crunchiness to the test of cold weather though I did end up having to dip it in chili mayo. The cookie was also delicious from the few bites I took from it (wish I was able to eat all of it). But being from the US and having traveled in Europe for a while now there have been more memorable burgers and the burger/fries combo has been cheaper than the burger I tried here. BUT this is not to say I don't recommend POPL - I definitely recommend trying this especially if you can't secure a noma reservation due to time/budget constraints.

    I'm not really eating red meat anymore, but I made an exception here and am so glad I did. We each…read moregot a burger and the truffle fries. The burgers are perfectly cooked, and the crisp vegetables and pillowy bun make everything even better! There is a nice variety of canned beverages, including beer, and we stuck with soda. The employees are friendly and definitely proud of their work, as they should be. Be forewarned that, at least at this location, there are no places to sit, and there is just a counter to stand and eat at. We were on the move and figured we'd just eat there. Even if you take it to a hotel room, you might stink it up for a while! Therefore, standing and eating isn't the worst plan, especially when it's this food. (Time to drool like Homer Simpson.) My husband randomly brings this up when someone mentions burgers, he sees one in a commercial, etc. This restaurant sets the standard for burgers anywhere in the world. I am very glad I did some nerdy research and pointed him toward it, because we both are so glad we went :')

    This location is primarily a takeout spot, with little to no seating available, so it's best for…read moregrabbing your food and enjoying it on the go. The cheeseburger we had was very tasty, and we also tried the French fries with their herb dip, which was a delicious addition. One thing to keep in mind is that it's fairly common at some places in Copenhagen to charge extra for condiments such as ketchup, mustard, and dipping sauces. Overall, the burger was excellent, but I personally still prefer POPL, the burger restaurant from the team behind Noma.

    Ranked as the 6th best burger in the world by Food and Wine magazine in 2024 ("Organic beef…read morecheeseburger with onions, pickles, and a house Gasoline Sauce. $16 "), the Gasoline Grill hamburger restaurant has multiple locations throughout Denmark. It's one of those things where I was glad I stopped by, but didn't really experience anything with the food or ambiance that would make me recommend this as a out-of-the way stop that the ranking would seem to suggest. This one is the original, using the station building as a walk-up window with the kitchen inside. They have a few picnic tables on the side for outdoor dining, and I do think that it's important to eat the burger as soon as possible. The interesting thing is that it is still a working gas station, with an island with multiple pumps dispensing petrol (which I didn't see being used during my wait) and some electric charging stations (which was actively being used). I was able to place my order (nothing customized, just wanted exactly as they described after about a 10 minute wait, got my lemonade right away, and waited another 10 minutes to get my food (everything is made-to-order). The cheeseburger was 110 DKK, fries was 40, lemonade was 35, and dipping sauce was 10 with 10 off for being a combo. So total was 185 DKK (about $28.88 in USD). The process and food reminded me very much of a Shake Shack, with the young workers working together to produce well-made smashburgers using great ingredients. The color scheme reminds me of a Wingstop, though. I squeezed between a couple of single diners and dug in. The burger was good, with that loose smash burger quality. It came with a mayo based thousand island like sauce (their gasoline sauce), and had tomato, pickles, red onion slices, and a gooey, plentiful cheese. The lemonade was good, and the hint of elderflower made it memorable. The crinkle fries were good, well done fried which I appreciate. Ate the meal fast before my hands started to freeze up, tossed the remains in the gas station islands garbage bin and was on my way. I really do think a food like this is all about where you eat it...if on an airplane, or at a ballpark, or at the beach...yeah, I could see the appeal. But at a gas station in freezing weather on a picnic table...not so much.

    This place completely hit the spot. The burger was everything you want; juicy, flavorful, and…read moreperfectly cooked, with just the right balance of toppings that didn't overwhelm the meat. The bun held up beautifully without getting soggy, and the fries on the side were crispy and golden. You can tell they really care about quality ingredients here. The ambiance was great too; casual and relaxed but still with a cool vibe that makes it feel like more than just a quick stop. It's the kind of spot where you can hang out with friends, enjoy good food, and not feel rushed. Service was excellent. The staff was friendly, quick with recommendations, and checked in at just the right times without hovering. Everything came out promptly, and you could see they genuinely wanted customers to have a good experience.
