Reviews

Had the Nachos with a garden spritz, both of which were phenomenal. Unfortunately, at the time of my visit only the inside was open and the tables were all very close together making it feel like you were in someone else’s conversation and the service was extremely hit or miss.

The open club sandwich was the first meal we had in Copenhagen and it was one of the best. Have to try an open sandwich while you’re in Denmark, and this one was amazing. Perfect location on the corner, great view of surrounding canals. Excellent service

Solid Italian spot for food. The menu has some variety, like Mexican nachos, American burgers, and Italian pasta, but the food is good. Salmon over pasta was tasty and piping hot. I prefer the pasta to be al dente, but it tasted fine.

I had mixed feelings about the experience. We ordered a plate with local appetizers, which was good but didn't stand out, especially considering the price. We've had much better dishes at other places in the city for the same or even lower cost.
Additionally, while the food was decent, the service left something to be desired. Our waiter seemed neither particularly helpful nor welcoming, which impacted the overall atmosphere. Lastly, the condition of the restroom was quite concerning—it was one of the least clean facilities I've encountered in a while.

Surprise surcharge for my non-EU credit card, even if I pay in DKK. Dirty chai did not taste much like chai.

The Coffee Collective on Bernikow has a reputation for serving excellent coffee, and while I was eager to try it, my experience was somewhat disappointing. Unfortunately, the café was incredibly crowded, and the wait for a coffee was far too long. The atmosphere was bustling and noisy, making it difficult to relax and enjoy my drink.
While I didn't have the chance to properly savor the coffee, the limited time I had with it didn't leave a lasting impression. Given the long wait and crowded conditions, I'm not sure if I would return.

This was just the best coffee I’ve ever experienced in my life. I went there for breakfast and also got some bread with cheese - I couldn’t believe bread with cheese could be so good as well!
It was a great start of the day and I am just sad I cannot go to this place on a regular basis, i am afraid I will never get coffee as good as this one anywhere else 😅

One of the best breakfasts we had in the city! We chose the option with 4 dishes, we had the smoked salmon, the scrambled eggs, the fried sausages and the pancakes! With that, they offered complimentary bread and butter which were fresh and tasty! The pancakes (I would say they are more like the french crêpes than pancakes) had a weird marmalade but it depends to each individual's taste! I also tasted the homemade Ice tea which was ok! I love the surroundings, the view is beautiful! The employees were all amazing! Really kind and always smiling! Definitely will visit again for more!

Tasty pastries, good tea.
Cool site.
It is said the coffee is very nice in this place.
It’s always full of people, so you can’t avoid the queues.
There is a terrace outside.

The place is no more cheap and prices are higher than other places, I will say expensive now
But the coffee is one of the best in the city, very very good

Prices are no longer as low as before, still fairly cheap, and despite other reviews stating otherwise, card was accepted. Cappucino and panini were good, but didn't stand out. Only staff member present was often not in the front, so multiple people came in and left. Also be aware they do not offer tap water.

I would say the place is chill and nice for friends/ family meet up.
We wouldn’t suggest to have the dessert here. I’ve ordered an apple pie and a smoothie which the apple pie was not as good as I expected. Its texture is more likely to be muffin and not much apple inside but the cream on side was pretty good tho. No comments for the smoothie cause it tastes extra great in summer time. In total, it’s DKK284 which I don’t see the meal worth anything with this price. „(-⌓-)

Always interesting exhibitions and just a lovely building full of history!

One of most beautiful cafés in town, talking about the room in the interiour courtyard, a historical building beautifully decorated by a local designer with hanging paper flower trees.
Coffee is very good, still among the best, with a rich history and tradition of specialty coffee, professional and nice staff, variety and all you need.
The place is quite crowded, but service is super fast, so you don't end up waiting a lot.
Good deserts / pastry too.

Very good coffee,nice snacks,cozy atmosphere outdoors and friendly staff

Good coffee. But they don’t give out tap water, even if you order a coffee.

Excellent service! Polite staff the pizza was Napoli style. The tomato sauce was not awesome enough to worth 5 stars. I would definitely coming back!!!

Excellent espresso drinks, just watching the baristas here work is a treat. There is a high level of attention paid to each order. If you’re interested in different coffees, they have a pour over option, I tried the Camacho, and it was wonderful.

Very good location and oven baked salmon was perfectly grilled. One of the best salmon I had ever had while traveling in Europe. It was tasty, the salmon was crispy and juicy.
The ambience was very nice.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Katz, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was incredibly comfortable, creating the perfect setting for a relaxing meal. The prices were very reasonable, especially considering the high quality of both the food and the service.
The staff truly stood out—they were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, with every waiter and waitress wearing a warm smile that left a lasting impression. Their attentiveness and genuine hospitality made me feel valued as a guest, and it reflected positively on the entire country.
Overall, Katz exceeded my expectations in every way. I highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a delightful dining experience.

Very lovely cafe with great espresso and delicious muffin.

coffee was mediocre and served in a to go cup even with sitting down, atmosphere is not the most enjoyable. Cheaper price is the only appeal to me

Laid-back, lovely cafe with seats inside and in the covered corridor out the back. Very nice place to stop for a coffee. The coffee is good, I really enjoyed my cappuccino. I also had a cardamon bun which was very light and fluffy.
Worth popping in.

It is a good location, but the coffee tasted like water and the hot chocolate was too sweet / artificial for my liking. They put out some nice candles though!

Enestående mad oplevelse og super service ❤️

Have seen a really nice exhibition. The place is stunning but. Unfortunately the lack of politeness from one of the receptionist changes my experience. I was enjoying the sound experience at the first floor and suddenly she came in and turn off the sound of the installation to make an informal meeting with two persons. As I understand the Danish language I could tell that she was rude enough to not even explain well what she did. And then after continuing her chat at the same place. So I had to leave them continue the conversation. As an artist myself I found that this attitude is unacceptable. Hope to get in touch with someone from the administration.

Very very nice coffee. Also we take bread with butter and cheese. Surprisingly it was extremely delicious. The secret of taste is a cheese which has a wonderful flavour. Staff is very friendly. Atmosphere cozy and nice. Highly recommend it

A hidden gem in Vesterbro! Not the usual prepared food, the owner has a creative touch. Last time i had a delicious borscht and borek. There are daily changing specials, including egg dishes and fresh salads.

Great place to grab a cheap cup of coffee and a quick bite. The guy behind the counter was super friendly and greeted us quickly. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is in Copenhagen and wants something cheap and quick. Also there are lots of places to walk and explore near here.

Endnu engang har jeg nydt et vidunderligt måltid fra Smag og Rum. Uanset hvad ejeren finder på af velkomponerede retter, kan man smage, at maden er lavet med største omhu. Og betjeningen er simpelthen så venlig og personlig. Tak for mad!

What a wonderful treasure of a cosy cafe. Serving absolutely delicious cakes and salads. Super hyggelit and the vegetarian food is to die for.

We found this Place by accident on our first morning. We just walked in an the owners were so kind and nice. We had an amazing omlette and very good conversations. During our Trip we came there a second time of course and it was so good. I can only recomend it not just because of the amazing food. Also because of the owners. They're just so nice and warmhearted people and the athmosphere is just so cosy. And it's really easy to find. Thank you for this nice time guys :-)

I’ve gone back multiple times and the coffee was amazing! I recommend the Dirty Chai Latte (elephant vanilla) it is SOOOO GOOD! The people working are also very nice and very helpful when asking about the menu! Great experience!

Lækreste salater, godt bagværk og velsmagende priser. Jeg var på Smag og Rum til frokost, og havde en fantastisk oplevelse. Et ærligt og sundt spisested, som har været savnet på Vesterbro, der klart kan anbefales.


Gemütliches Ambiente.
Dieses Café hat einen gemütlichen Vibe. Ist auch gut besucht, aber war nicht so überfüllt wie so manch andere Frühstücksspots. Essen war einfach aber wirklich lecker. Typisch dänisches Frühstück. Man konnte gut entspannen. Preise waren auch ok. Personal sympathisch. :)

Modern art and fantastic cafe in inside garden! Highly recommend


Really good coffee!


Sehr schönes Café! Wir waren für einen Mittags Snack dort und haben uns richtig wohl gefühlt! :)


Cosy place with delicious meals, avocado smash or chevre chaud salad 🥗 are the most favourite ones

DELICIOUS coffee 🤤 cute place, hygge atmosphere!

Nice place to enjoy your favourite coffe and the vivid lives around the café

Exceptional breakfast if you get a chance to come here! The service is top notch; we have kids and they have a little table with books, the croissants are amazing and the breakfast is homemade cooking at its finest. Strongly recommended!

Grilled croissant here is pure food magic





Best coffee ☕️ Great service. Come here at least ones a week. Favorite small hangout.

The coffee is delicious


10/10! We ordered a few different items off the menu and everything was great. Staff was super nice and helpful, as well as the café itself just simple, comfortable atmosphere and local people.


Great little spot with excellent coffee and a homely, neighbourhood vibe. French classics in the airwaves, the sound of chatter from regulars and a friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Not sure where the good reviews came from. Breakfast was a bit too basic, and the waitresses made a comment about me trying to order in Danish.
It’s nice that it’s a Laptop free zone. However, overall, it wasn't the most pleasant experience. I hope I was just there at the wrong time.

Delicious croque monsieur and coffee! Lovely atmosphere. Friendly staff







A great place to grab a coffee and a breakfast. Freshly baked croissants were particularly delicious. The service was great, one of the best we had in the city. Keep up the good work!

I had a very good experience at Shabaz ! Wonderful service with a very friendly staff

Extremely tasty food, partially self-service. A waiter will bring you food, but only if you sit inside

Der Espresso schmeckt lecker. Es hat mir Spaß gemacht



Great location at the side of the canal for a drink in the sunshine. Locals jumping in the canal late into the evening make for great entertainment. Local beers need to be tried.

There’s a Cafe in the lower level with great coffee, friendly staff and very clean restrooms.

Love the atmosphere! Delicious coffee and food. Excellent service! Right outside the metro.

Several times, I had a meeting at the cafe in the evening and they decided to close earlier because there were not enough clients. I complained that I had a meeting, but it was not enough reason for them to serve me because, as the manager claimed, it was not making sense for them commercially. I like the place and use it regularly as a local, but I have no words for such declining of service within the officially stated opening hours. Shame on the manager for how this business is being run.

Best coffee in city. Absolutely kind and friendly service.
I recommend.

55 DKK for a breakfast plate with egg, bread, butter, cheese and yogurt. Great coffee. And discount for students. Relax, and friendly staff. Decoration could be a bit more considerate, IMO. Overall great quality price ratio.



We had danish almond croissant along with hot chocolate and it was damn tasty.
The service was great. It was warm and cosy as well.

Great service! The latte and buns were delicious.


We loved the personal atmosphere at this location. The service was impeccable. We had to make some adjustments to our order and the owner and assistant were so nice about it and did their best to get our special order right. The food was healthy and the coffee was amazing. We loved the dedicated children’s play area even though we only came with our dog.

Wir waren gestern zum Frühstücken in Cortado und es war einfach nur Mega!!! 🤩
Wir waren zu zweit und konnten uns aussuchen, ob wir einen Tisch im Innenraum oder draußen haben wollten. Das Wetter war super also haben wir uns für draußen entschieden, es war einfach herrlich, fast so wie im Urlaub 😎👍.
Zum Kaffee trinken waren wir schon das ein oder andere Mal hier, zum Frühstücken nun zum ersten Mal..
Das Essen war mega lecker und wunderschön angerichtet. Auch das Personal war super freundlich und total Aufmerksam!!
Da können sich andere Einrichtungen mal anschauen wie toll hier der Service funktioniert!!
Wir haben uns sehr, sehr wohl gefühlt und werden auf jeden Fall wieder kommen.
Preis Leistung auch TOP!!!👀👀👌👍👍
Wlan gibt es auch !

This is an important exhibition and worth visiting. I especially liked the modern installation piece on the third floor and the video interview with the artist is not to missed.






Fine little coffee place - I got a cappuccino and a smoothie. Both good 👌🏼
Located at the end of the charming Rantzausgade - Worth a visit.

Only 1 vegetarian option. Good alcohol free beer options, including a local 0,3 ipa.
It’s self service with a beeper for food.
Meal was ok, there was a bit of fish bone in my salad.
Nice view on the water

Super friendly and welcoming staff, very helpful with our random laundry questions as we couldnt read the instructions in the nearby laundromat.
Thanks guys!

Love the place, great coffee and vibe.
Only downside is that every time I sit outside I need to encounter unwanted conversations with locals. I hope it’s just me haha

If you are in the mood for sun, water, beer and a huge bowl of crispy hot French Fries then this is the spot for you, in fact Bryggens Spisehus possibly has the biggest bowl of crispy fries in town. Great for killing those hunger pangs.


Nice café with the Nørrebro atmosphere. Coffee, cardamom snails and chia porridge were alright.


Nice tea and but slightly underwhelming cheesecake. Pleasent seeing and atmosphere for getting some work done or talking.

Most affordable coffee we found in Copenhagen. Delicious as well! Friendly owner. We came back here twice. Every coffee only costs 20 DKK which is very affordable for Copenhagen standards. You can also drink Iced Latte as well.

One of my favourite places. Went in for a coffee with a wonderful view of the water, stayed for 5hrs enjoying coffee, cocktails and food. Staff are always friendly and it has great prices for Copenhagen.

The time I went they had Leonard Copenhagen exhibition. The exhibition is very interesting as it uses sound to create new experiences for people, there were also videos about him. The museum is on the small side, but if I like I could have spent 1 hr or more


Very nice and spacious cafe. Great coffee. Good to be with kids and for studies

For sure food above average for what could be expected in a place like this.
Good selection of food and drinks.
The only negative comment from me is reading the wine, please get a wine fridge, to serve red and white at room temperature is not good enough for a place like this.

Cute little coffee shop where I stopped by on Thursday for a flat white while biking and discovering the city. Friendly waitress (blond girl) nice interior, great music and the coffee was like back home. Liked the fact that laptops where forbidden. Yes, talk to each other more! Greetings from Berlin!

small... very pricey for what you get. i enjoyed it but its too small versus the cost. less than 30 min to look around


A sit down coffeeshop with wifi and power outlets. Good pastries and drinks
