    Great little coffee shop. Nice place to setup on your laptop or play cards with friends. Fairly small with 4 tables but we had no problem finding space.

    Dropped off my bags at Central Station and was looking for a nice little place to have a traditional Danish breakfast. Oh, thanks Yelp for this recommendation - i found Risteriet and couldn't have been better. I arrived really early, and the place only had a table with a couple of teenagers. I ordered a combo that came with three slices of bread, cheese, marmalade, some granola and you could choose a hot drink. I tried to order the whole thing in a broken Danish, and obviously didn't work but the lady was really nice and without laughing understood my ordered and helped me out. Coffee was good, the ambience is quite comfy and they have free WiFi. Would totally recommend you comer here for a cup of nice coffee or to hang out reading a book.

    This café and roastery offer the best espresso in CPN that I have found. RH also bake their own bread (flour provided by the illustrious and industrious danish chef, Claus Meyer) and serve it with meat and cheese in the mornings, or warm it up and serve it panini-style for lunch. The location is both a draw and detraction. Like Janice C., the hubs and I only had to travel a block from our hotel for a cuppa and some grub. This place is a boon for those staying and living in the area. There are a few shelters in the vicinity that help those in need, and, while that is a GREAT thing, it also meant that we were privy to a few scenes of very upsetting street behavior. A few of the kids there were really super friendly and handled our out-of-towner questions with aplomb. In addition to selling beans, R.H. sell a decent selection of coffee accoutrement for those that like to brew at home. Free WiFi

    This quaint little coffee shop was next to my hotel. I ordered the latte which was super aromatic. The crema was basically oozing out the perfectly frothed milk. The pricing of the latte is quite expensive (around $5-6 USD) but for quality taste and craftsmanship, it is worth the money.

    Loved the vibe. Great for coffee and a light breakfast! Came here since it was a block away from our hotel and had the breakfast platter. It was very filling. The latte was served in a little expresso glass which I thought was interesting. Bread and cheese were fresh and I liked the little yogurt with nuts and the jam. Would definitely be back!

    An average cute cafe near the meat packing district. There is free wifi so you can find some loners at the window tables on their computers. On the bad side, the cafe does not have so many tables so be prepared for waiting for one or for squeezing in with others. The interior is quite rustic, which I liked. The walls are from bricks and there are small black lamps on top of every table. The coffee and warm chocolate that we had were good but again, I am not a coffee expert. I liked the music which was chilling and relaxing in the background. There was a good atmosphere in this cafe although it is halfway under the street level. The service was very friendly and fast and it seemed like a popular cafe on a Sunday afternoon. If you re in the area it's a good cafe to spend few hours at, but I don't think I would travel from another part of the city just to go there.

    Excellent local coffee/breakfast bar for a simple but delicious starter of the day! Thumbs up for the hospitable and kind service Recommendation: the breakfast menu is one small but full plate with everything you need to start the day and a freshly grinded cappuccino or latte to accompany your kickstarter meal.

    Ligth breakfast, yogurt and coffee.

    So nice place. Really close to the rail station. Make a great coff and delicious breakfast. We tried there yogurt with fruits. Light breakfast but give us a lot of energy.

    First impression; please to grab a coffee on the run. Few tables if food is your purpose. Food, not many choices. Okey morning plate.. (breakfast). Good coffee! Helpful and friendly service :)

    Within walking distance from our Airbnb, this place was a great find for breakfast. Friendly service and good coffee.

    Awesome small, neighborhood coffee shop and breakfast/lunch cafe. The morning plate breakfast was the perfect way to start our day. We came here a couple of times while in Copenhagen. Friendly, fast service. Fresh foods. Reasonable prices. Definitely recommended!

    It was our first time trying a smorrebrod here in Copenhagen and some were better than others…read more When we arrived there was just one person ahead of us. This was around 4:13 pm on a Saturday. We order three smorrebrod and we ate them in the Tivoli food hall. All were served on plates. The correct way to eat was with a fork and knife as we learned while watching an episode of Somebody Feed Phil. The chicken salad was undoubtedly our favorite. Lots of shredded chicken but overall smooth and tasty. We crumbled the bacon to add some texture and that was even better. The marinated salmon was ok but we liked the nice pop of flavor from the pomegranate seeds. I may try to add them at home to my smoked salmon. The egg and shrimp smorrebrod was tastier. We returned our empty plates back to the counter when we were finished. Not completely in love with open face sandwiches but may try again on a future return trip to Copenhagen.

You can find Hallernes on the fifth floor of the shopping mall. We got there later in the day and there was still an array of toast options - some vegetarian, others pescatarian and others with a heaping of meat on top. We enjoyed the tartar, lemon & dill shrimp and the traditional pork toast. Each was somehow better than the next. Everything was so fresh which really enhanced the contrast of flavors on our plates. We liked it so much we contemplated going back and ordering more! We sat in the dining area to eat, which had a high chair available. We also got a window seat which had a beautiful view of the square below and some stunning architecture. We sat there for awhile just enjoying the view. When we were flying out of the Copenhagen airport we noticed this same restaurant inside one of the terminals. It's awesome to see such high quality food be offered in such casual but busy spaces. We'll definitely be back!

This shop was super close to our Zleep hotel right around the corner. They have a sign that says early bird special and caught my wife's eye that says get a croissant with a purchase of a coffee for only 5 DKK. She mistakenly read it as coffee and croissant for 5DKK but we realize we read the sign wrong or it would be too good to be true haha. It's ok. We went the next morning at 8:45am on a Saturday and this early bird special is only available for one hour from 8:30-9:30 Saturday Sunday or 7:30-8:30 Mon-Fri. Nice coffee shop. Barista was super nice. This place takes credit cards no problem. They have a few selection of pastries. We really like the croissants because they were super hot and fresh. Just baked right out of the oven with a nice fluffy bite into it. If your looking for super fancy latte art, not sure if this place is good at that. They do have a good interior seating and a nice section of outdoor seating as well. A coffee and a croissant came out to be around $5.75 USD for the early bird special is not too bad compared to NYC prices.

We ordered and waited…read more1.5 hours to be told there was a mixup in the kitchen with our order and it was just put in. All 4 of us heard the server say, It's on us! After another 30 minutes we asked if we could at least get our salads which came out shortly after. Our meals came out 15-20 minutes later. Ribeye was tasty and fries were good but not exceptional as we had anticipated. We had to ask server for our desserts which we had ordered initially with the meal. The table was cleared and then our desserts came out. By this point we had been there about 2.5 hours. We told the server we were ready to leave and the check came. We said we thought the meals ( each couple shared one meal) were on them. The server said that we had been told only our drinks would be on them! One couple only drank water and the only thing comped for a 2 hour wait for food was for a Diet Coke and a lemonade. Certainly not what we were told. Will not be recommending Fleisch to other friends as it did not meet our expectations.

    "Everything you look at can become a fairy tale and you can get a fairy tale from everything you…read moretouch." - Hans Christian Andersen Hej! Absolutely the most delicious Brød I had in Denmark! And trust me, I'm not being vulgar or sexist lol! If you're not fluent in Danish... Brød simply means bread. Ya! It's more than just bread! Bageriet Brød is located in the Vesterbro neighborhood of København and popular with the local Danes, so you pretty much know it's legit. I planned to bike over one early morning, but since WiFi was non-existent on the streets I couldn't unlock a bike, so did it the old fashioned way and walked about six blocks. Not the worse thing since I planned on carbing up! It's in an old neighborhood lined with boutiques and cafes, most still closed that early. Bageriet Brød is open! Yasss! I enter to Danes ordering morning Brød, coffee, etc. It gives me just enough time to peruse the menu in.. Danish! Lol! No worries since I do speak a little French, Spanish and English which does nothing here lol. Honestly most Danes in København speak perfect English, so no worries, mon. Order away... There's really no line, per se, but Danes are honest, never in a rush, the line is by honor system, so even tho two people slid ahead of me, when it was my turn, everyone turned my way lol. So I ordered the Morning Cinnamon Bun, Almond Croissant, Latté. The young Danish lady making my Latté was polite and spoke perfect English. Definitely easy on the eyes, but hey what's my verdict? I'll tell ya once I cross the street and find a bench. I decide to eat the Morning Cinnamon Bun first! Oh my! Each bite literally melted in my mouth! Crisp exterior with soft interior. So delicious! The Latté on point! Maybe not the best I've had, but I think the cute Dane who mix'd it - certainly convinced me it was the best! :D I decided to eat the Almond Croissant later, which ended being as soon as I got back to my hotel! And it was as amazing as the Bun I had earlier! Just Wow! After reading the reviews on Yelp & Google I knew my wants! :D Denmark still uses the native Dansk Krone currency rather than the Euro, fortunately, most businesses, will gladly accept your credit card. I also reached out to Rachel, former San Francisco Yelper, and now expat living in København that informed me of the Bageriet Brød and iconic Tartin Bakery connection. It all made sense after the fact! If you're unfamiliar with Tartin in San Francisco it is a pilgrimage for lovers of baked goods! Story goes that the owner of Tartin influenced Bageriet Brød to the point that they have some of his secret recipes! I've had Tartin before and I admit the quality is very familiar! What a small loving world we live in, huh?! In the end, I highly recommend Bageriet Brød in København! Amazing baked goods that will knock your Ecco's off! Just remember to bring your CC unless you be carrying Dansk Krone on ya! Jeg elsker også dig! And yes, I believe in fairy tales... :)

    The pastries were okay. It'd be better if they were softer and richer in taste. I like the ambiance…read moreof the place - very simple yet stylish. Also the location is great - a square and a lot of hype stores around.
