Food Scene

Awesome little café/bar with a nice atmosphere. Owned by an American guy who offers great hospitality. It's not unusual to spot stars from Danish TV series "Borgen" or "The Killing" (Afbrydelsen).

Drinks & Nightlife

What more can you ask for? Bar, food, live music, floating sandy "beach", sauna, kayak rentals, kayak tours, running tours... this place is epic, especially in long summer evenings and morning coffee.

One of my favourite bars. Jazz meets rock, interesting decor, good background music and professional bar staff.

Probably Copenhagen's most recognised bar. Mikkeller specialises in craft beers from their own brewery. Very, very popular on sunny afternoons.

Everything Else

Big tourist attraction, you'll find the cosiest little community, nice markets, great food, music venues and, of course, the notorious "Pusher Street". Generally, people are pleasantly surprised.

Danish Architecture Centre - I'm fascinated by urban design so I love this place. Check out their exhibitions on the web or just visit to grab a coffee in their harbour-facing glass room :)

This is one of the best preserved star fortresses in Northern Europe. It is constructed in the form of a pentagram with bastions at its corners. Beautiful place for a walk by the water.

I really like the new aquarium at Kastrup. If it's a rainy day then the short journey on the metro is worth it. Admission, opening hours etc can be found at: http://www.denblaaplanet.dk/

Arts & Culture

In my opinion no visit to Copenhagen is complete without a trip to Louisiana. Beautiful as much for it's architecture and location as for it's wonderful exhibitions. Check: http://en.louisiana.dk/
