You would be surprised, but Copenhagen is full of amazing coffee shops and bakeries! Serving up top-notch specialty coffee for the Copenhageners. Coffee bars are where to meet your friends, work out of the office or just enjoy the vibes or soak up a ray. There is a huge coffee culture in the Nordics, centered around craftsmanship, sustainability, and accountability. Did you also know that Cinnamon buns are iconic danish pastries?
1. Buka
Located in the heart of Copenhagen, Buka is a small, modern bakery driven by passion and good vibes. Their cozy, informal space is ideal to indulge in their range of traditional Danish pastries, with the Nutella croissants being a favorite. Buka focuses on quality ingredients, prepared in an unpretentious way.
2. Lille Bakery
Lille Bakery is located in the old industrial area Refshaleøen, but it is very much worth venturing across the harbour to taste one of their baked goods. From Berliners to sourdough bread to cinnamon rolls – you will find it all here, and you will find it is the very best quality. The founders of Lille work closely with farmers to ensure that their products live up to their high standards and show respect for the environment.

Whilst they offer a simple breakfast and lunch menu (granola, toasted sandwiches), you really want to get here early for one of their homemade croissants, or even better, their chocolate kouign-amann: a flaky, crusty swirl of goodness.
