Stepped into a mom and pop style cafe ran by two young ladies. Food was great, decor was detailed to the T. And music selection was good. We ordered the tuna melt toast and the chicken strip sandwhich. Everything tasted fresh, well, and homemade. There were art in the the store for sale as well. Overall experience felt was why we even came to Copenhagen in the first place!

It is the best coffee place in town and great for breakfast and brunch. The service and the staff are absolutely amazing and always smiley as well as ready to help. They have all possible options to drink and all of them made with care.

Best cafe I’ve even been to! The vibes, the people, the setting both inside and out, the food, the drinks and location. Amazing business. I had the pistachio cake and a ginger honey mint tea - exquisite. I’ve been trying to find it on Google maps to leave a review as I went back in April when I was visiting CPH. It’s stuck in my mind so strongly so glad I’ve found it and can save it for future. Thank you so much for such a nourishing sense of true hospitality. 10/10!

A lovely place. Arabic and Danish cuisine, fused together, cheaper than many other places in the city. Kind and smiling. A warm atmosphere... lovely, lovely

Great local cafe by Norrebro, ambience id absolutely gorgeous, warm and welcoming and a great place for brunch, it seems tiny and does not serve alcohol hence no mimosas, but the juice (with ginger is to die for), capuccino just perfect and breakfast portions the right size. Service is also amazing, friendly, fast and efficient, despite flow, which is very impressive. I was also impressed by how robust the menu is, from drinks to bites to meals for throughout the day!

A cozy place that is close to the center and located in a street where it comes alive in the evening! I like that the place is full of plants and candles. The service is friendly, professional and very nice! Their positive attitude will make your day. :) I definitely recommend a stop if you want to make your day better in Cph. Moreover, the food and coffee were very tasty! I recommend a visit!

The most delicious breakfast we had in Copenhagen. Homemade granola. Delicious along with the chocolate chip cookie and pancakes.
