Freshly Baked Waffle w Coconut Ice Cream
Evan Y.

I decided to try it because there was a long line earlier, but it had cleared up when I walked by again. The staff seemed tired and didn't listen to everything I said. However, she did get my order correct without any complaints, which might be due to the noise level. The freshly baked waffle was pretty good, though very sweet. The coconut ice cream, on the other hand, was excessively sweet and watery. Shop is at the tourist attraction area. 4 large & 2 small tables outside are available.

Stopped in here because we saw a sign for æbleskivers and had been wanting to try these in Copenhagen. The person behind the counter first told us they were out but then said they'd check and they did end up having more so we got 3. Kind of a weird start but we decided to eat these inside as it was freezing outside. They came with strawberry jam and powdered sugar. The jam looked and tasted super artificial. The æbleskivers were warm but they lacked flavor and we've had better elsewhere. They also keep the door open so it was quite cold inside. There was no WiFi either. Maybe other things here are worth trying but we didn't think it was worth it for the æbleskivers.

Pistachio and banana chocolate
Arshad H.

Vaffelbageren, a quaint ice cream and coffee shop nestled in the bustling tourist hub of Nyhavn, has been serving up sweet treats since 1953. While I should have indulged in a waffle to complement the ice cream, I opted for two scoops of their limited selection of flavors instead. 2 scoops of ice cream (45kr = $6.48) - I chose pistachio and banana/chocolate in a cup. The consistency of the ice cream was smooth, however the pistachio was completely devoid of flavor. Surprisingly the banana/chocolate tasted pretty good and had a very strong banana flavor as well as hints of chocolate. Overall, Vaffelbageren's ice cream selection is limited and unimpressive. The prices are high for what you get, and the selection of flavors is underwhelming. This tourist trap is best avoided, as there are better ice cream options available elsewhere. Perhaps the waffles are worth a try, but I won't be returning to find out.

Got Oreo ice cream in a cone. Tasted pretty standard. Nothing too special. Tried some of my friend's vanilla and also didn't feel like it was anything to write home about.

Waffle with Daim ice cream
Margot C.

We came here last night for dessert after seeing it during a walk in the area. When we walked in, we were immediately hit with the amazing aroma of fresh baked waffles. We each got a waffle with ice cream on top. I got the Daim ice cream and my fiancé for mint chip. The Daim ice cream seemed to be vanilla ice cream with chunks of chocolate covered caramel pieces in it. It was so delicious. The waffle was warm and perfectly crispy. It went really well with the ice cream and we both devoured them. Definitely come here if you're in the area.

Michael U.

Serving Copenhagen from the waterside since 1953 Vaffelbageren predates nearly all the city's culinary destinations, a recipe from the 1920 still used to make Liege-style Waffles featuring five types of Sugar plus eighteen flavors of Ice Cream Located in a Nyhavn basement, cattycorner counters creating a logjam of guests attempting to retrieve affordably-priced goods including 35 DKK scoops of cream Nougat, it is at tables outside that most will settle in amongst tourists with only a handful prone to wonder why Vaffelbageren chooses to compromise texture by microwaving Waffles when they'd be far better fresh made or at room temperature as they once were.

I stumbled upon this waffle shop as it started pouring down rain and I was immediately hit with the delightful smell of fresh made waffles. I had the Belgian waffle with chocolate and powdered sugar and it was amazing! They also offer ice cream which looked really good. Cute and cozy cafe with minimal indoor seating.

This small shop is in the heart of Nyhavn and is always packed and busy. Staff is efficient and friendly. The line moves quick. They offer ice cream and soft serve on a homemade warm waffle or waffle cone. I tried both and I preferred the cone, especially on a warm warm day. There's very limited indoor seats but they have a few standing tables with shade and benches outside for you to enjoy your ice cream. Worth a try when you are in the area!

Waffle topped with walnut ice cream.
T S.

This place is a short walk from the Admiral Hotel and when your body clock is out of whack by the 6 hour time difference from home, ice cream is the cure. There is no substitute for a warm Belgian waffle topped by great tasting ice cream, jam, and whipped cream. The Nyhavn "main drag" is a couple of steps away and you are set for a fantastic excursion.

So when National Geographic named the Top 10 places in the world to eat ice cream, Vaffelbageriet…read moreactually ranked #9. I didn't realize I was patronizing the ninth best ice cream parlor in the world when I took a sweet-tooth respite during my leisurely evening stroll in the world-famous Tivoli Gardens last September. In fact, I didn't know the place had a name, but I just saw a herd of toddlers with over-sized cones and followed the drip marks on the pavement. Those led me to a very festive-looking pavilion with a welcoming counter chock full of sweet treats not the least of which was ice cream. Apparently, the name of the place is Danish for ice cream served in large waffle cones, which no surprise, is their house specialty. Their most popular item is the Amerikaner, a decadent-looking mountain of ice cream in a waffle cone, four scoops worth ladled with some syrupy, only-in-Europe topping, dollops of whipped cream, and a chocolate-covered meringue puff rather than the expected maraschino cherry. It doesn't look like anything I've seen in the states, but it's called the Amerikaner because it's the picture of unhealthy excess, I'm guessing. What a reputation we have across the pond. I refuse to live down to my stereotype and went for a good old-fashioned vanilla soft-serve waffle cone covered in chocolate sprinkles, large of course (see photo). Sure, it was still decadent but at 30 DKK (Danish krone) or $5.32, it was a relative bargain. And frankly, it was one of the creamiest cones I've ever had, which of course, means it's still sitting in my thighs all these months later. No matter since it hit the spot, and for Pete's sake, or I guess I should say for Per's sake, it was Tivoli, and you're supposed to have carnival food. So stop judging me. Anyway, I don't know if Vaffelbageriet is truly the ninth best ice cream in the world, but who's complaining? ICE CREAM - 4 stars...creamy excess that may give you a diabetic coma AMBIANCE - 4 stars...cute spot with plenty of seats if you need recovery time from the Star Flyer SERVICE - 4 stars...very friendly servers keep you in a good mood here TOTAL - 4 stars...big globs of ice cream in a warm, freshly baked waffle cone in the middle of Tivoli Gardens...I can dig it

Lovely waffles, however would have loved a little more source. Quite a busy place so if you are…read morelooking for a romantic setting you really gotta get your timing right. The home made ice cream was quite nice but the serving was definitely small, which was the main let down.

When you can just walk into Munchies and experience it first hand! This place takes you on a pick-your-own(ice cream)-adventure. You pick from a choice of regular or seasonal flavored bubble waffle. Add your choice of fav ice cream to it. They have vanilla options like well.. Vanilla, chocolate, cookies and cream, strawberry and seasonal wonders like Black currant, mint chocolate, banana, shocking blue coconut , lemon sorbets and more. After that you get to add toppings like fruits, nuts, fudge, kit-kat and top it off with a drizzle. The toppings and drizzles cost extra. Just the ice cream and waffle cost about 50 DKK (~$7.5) and toppings are about 5 DKK ($ 0.75) each. You get to watch them make fresh bubble waffle in the back and the aroma of freshly made waffle is just delightful as you wait for it. Once the ice cream is served, you take the customary picture of course. But then you'd have to rush to finish it coz it's a race between you and the warm waffle melting your ice cream. I tried the regular waffle with double ice cream Salted Caramel and Banana. Both flavors were delightful but the waffle ice cream ended up being too heavy. It may be a good option to share though! If it's a particularly cold day, you can always get the hot chocolate. Taste wise the ice cream was much like any other that I've had. The look of the ice cream is very instagram worthy though. It will definitely spice up your insta feed. You can see people trying to take cool money shots with their ice creams outside the place. All in all it's a good place to visit if you're in the area. Don't forget to take a picture with the cookie monster!

The wait wasn't too long, and there were a few seats inside - but it was way too hot inside for anyone to eat inside. I got the seasonal strawberry fields ice cream in an original bubble waffle, for 50kr (a little over $8). My friend got the seasonal mighty mango ice cream in an original bubble waffle with strawberries for 55kr. The prices hurt my wallet real hard, but the ice cream wasn't too sweet which I love, and it almost tasted like the strawberry Haagen Dazs. The bubble was so soft and fluffy with just a hint of sweetness.
