Café restaurants in Denmark

  1. A

    Nyhavns Færgekro

    An atmospheric café right on the canal, this popular spot has an all-you-can-eat buffet with 10 different kinds of herring, including baked, marinated and rollmops, with condiments to sprinkle on top and boiled potatoes to round out the meal. If you’re not a herring lover, then there’s something very wrong with you. But there’s also a variety of smørrebrød for around 60kr. Dinner, served from 5pm to 11.30pm, betrays French influences, like many Danish restaurants in this area.

    Café Saltlageret

    This is our favourite spot on Jomfru Ane Gade, with its cute outdoor seating and classy interior. If you can face this street again after a big night on the turps, there are good brunch offerings served until 2pm and the potential for hair of the dog. Otherwise, per­use the lengthy menu for classic café fare. It transforms into a bar-club later on (hey, don’t they all?) and stays open until 6am on Friday and Saturday nights.

    Café Cuckoo’s Nest

    A mid-priced place where you can go for breakfast and stay until the wee hours, Cuckoo’s Nest does everything from scrambled eggs to cocktails. There’s open courtyard seating, backgammon sets and occasional live blues and jazz. Veggies should double-check ingredients, as fish sometimes counts as a vegetable.

    Froggy’s Café

    A good people-watching spot overlooking the main pedestrian street, Froggy’s has an all-day menu of reasonably priced burgers, pastas, omelettes and salads. It’s a late-opening nightspot on Friday and Saturday, when punters are shown the door at 5am. Sunday morning offers a restorative brunch (89kr).

    Caféministeriet

    Generous portions of fresh café fare includes burgers, sandwiches, salads and so on. The cool crowd seated inside and out on the summer terrace seem indifferent to the slow service. Becomes a popular drinking spot later in the night.

    Coffee & Bread

    Fresh from the school of obvious business names, the modern, richly coloured décor complements the strong coffee, perky smoothies and filling sandwiches served here with aplomb. A good pit stop.

    Café Klostertorvet

    A funky, laid-back café with a studenty feel, thanks largely to its dirt-cheap meals (baguettes, lasagne and the like), strong coffee, cheap house wine and backgammon-playing clientele.
