These two large glass halls installed on the square house: one houses stalls of fresh produce to eat or to offer, food, delicacies to nibble, smell, decorate... And, for the other, stalls where you can eat. Depending on your preference, you can eat in or take away. Quality, choice, colors, many flavors from here and elsewhere (France, Italy, India ...). What happiness! To do absolutely. Ideal if you are in an apartment.

This tea room, opened in 1870 on the initiative of a young pastry chef, Nicolaus Henningsen, remains a real institution in Copenhagen! Mahogany panelling, old-fashioned shop windows, brass counter, here is an unmissable address in the land of delicacies. You can taste the energy speciality, sportskage or "sportsman's cake". You'll understand that it takes a lot of breath to finish off the generous creamy portions! Ice cream is of course one of the specialities to try. If you're on a diet, the front of the shop is a feast for the eyes!

As soon as you see the shop window, your mouth will be watering with envy. Buka is a small bakery located near Kongens Nytorv. A small store with a high ceiling and a few bistro tables, a back room with bread racks and a tiny open kitchen with a beautiful copper bar where customers can sit and watch the chefs at work. It's casual, the perfect place to grab a snack with a glass of wine or craft beer, or for a well-deserved snack break after a busy day of sightseeing!

Right in the heart of Norrebro, Shoppen is a store specializing in all types of liqueurs, both local and international, of the highest quality. In addition to typical Danish and Nordic beverages, there's a fine selection of Mexican mezcal, West Indian rum and Japanese whiskies. If you're a lover of good liqueurs, you'll find what you're looking for here! Carl's approach is highly original. He invites you to taste before you buy. Available in 10cl and 25cl bottles, you can test the bottle of your choice. Ideal for hand luggage, gifts or souvenirs.

Among the shops in the Toverhallerne market, Tante T specialises in tea. A hundred varieties of white, matcha green, oolong, black and scented teas are available for sale. Noble dried leaves cannot be prepared without the right accessories, or without knowing the rules of the trade or other ceremonies associated with your favourite drink. You can also taste on the spot, there is a small corner tea room which looks like the living room of Aunt... T and a pleasant terrace where you can relax and enjoy the lively atmosphere.

Looking for a place away from the hustle and bustle of the main roads? This is the place for you. Hidden between the houses by the lakes of Østerbro, Leckerbaer serves delicious homemade pastries and cakes! Traditional Danish cakes but revisited. A treat even for the eyes as they are beautiful to look at! And they are so refined and delicate that we would almost not dare to bite them... Take a break while drinking a cup of organic coffee of course, or take your delicacies with you in pretty packages.

A delicatessen with an epicurean concept... french but not only! On the shelves, a wide choice of wine, fresh bread, cheese and other delicacies born of artisanal know-how. A warm décor inspired by pre-war shops, cellars and pantry of back kitchens where it was good to steal a little something to nibble on! Daniel Letz, a native of Alsace, put his knowledge of smoking at the service of the house's salmon and herring. Convivial tastings are regularly organised around the long farm table.

Vinborsen is a delicatessen that caters to gourmets. Its wide selection of products is a source of inspiration to bring back a gourmet gift from your trip to Copenhagen. It is mainly specialized in alcohols, teas and chocolate. Even if the French products are in the spotlight, don't miss the Danish specialties. Namely, the different beers. Amager Bryghu, Fanø, Man behind, Hvide sande or Skagen. Cocoa lovers, discover the Danish chocolates Summerbird. Organic chocolates for 30 years already, presented in delicate white boxes.

Three addresses in Vesterbro and Nørrebro to treat yourself to a new kind of ice cream. Nicecream Copenhagen, founded in 2015, makes plant-based ice cream. Yes, these are 100% vegan ice creams made with organic coconut milk, organic cane sugar and high quality ingredients. That's not to say the scoops aren't creamy and tasty. Six classic flavors and one seasonal flavor to choose from. You'll recognize them by their logo: a tender panda with a Santa Claus hat on its head!

As you stroll through Vesterbro, the Siciliansk Is sign is sure to catch your eye. And with good reason: there's plenty to salivate over. A hand holding an ice cream cone points to... an ice cream parlour. A Danish ice cream maker inspired by Sicilian flavors such as tangerine, lemon and almonds that are to die for... deliciousness. We're enchanted by the saffron, rose, pistachio, lemon zest and olive oil ice cream. However, local flavors are not forgotten: koldskaal (fresh yogurt eaten when the weather's nice) or the unavoidable lakrids (licorice).

It all began with a story of friendship between two schoolgirls from Bornholm Island, Tina and Charlotte, who created these delicious toffees made on the island. They come in all flavours. After training in their kitchen and having finally found the right technique for making them, they opened their workshop-shop in 2006. Candies with original names: rocking stone or granite for hard toffees; summer flirt, touch of sun or dusk for soft toffees.

Retro atmosphere and crowd. Not easy to find this address a little lost on the island of Amager. But you will see many families, with smiles on their faces, displaying giant ice creams. Follow the line! An address open all year round. To the fruity and light flavors of summer, autumn and winter offers more creamy flavors such as ice cream with Baileys or sorbet with champagne. Organic ice creams, without additives, quality, to be tasted on the terrace or in the pretty room dressed with glazed tiles of a bright green! Sixties atmosphere guaranteed.

Set back a little from the main street of Amagerbrogade on a charming square, Alice treats you to her delicacies. Here, the coffee is prepared with care, purchased from Koppi, a specialty roaster with selected coffees processed with love and ethics. It is accompanied by croissants and homemade cinnamon buns. Finally, when the weather is nice, come and taste one of their delicious homemade ice creams, served in a buttered, tasty, crispy wafer cone - always homemade - or in a small jar.

This small bakery in the heart of the Latin Quarter is said to be the oldest in Copenhagen. The bakery has always prepared typical pastries and several kinds of pastries to take away. The house speciality is tebirke, a puff pastry brioche filled with marzipan and sprinkled with poppy seeds. But it is only on Wednesday, and only on that day, that you can taste onsdagssnegle, an appetizing cinnamon roll. Be careful, you won't be the only one standing in line outside. Indeed, more than 4,000 are sold every Wednesday!

The "fish market", in operation from 1958 until its closure in 1999, is a huge mall, the third largest shopping centre in Denmark. On several levels, there are 120 shops of all kinds (ready-to-wear in particular), an IMAX and CinémaxX multiplex with twelve screens and 15 classic or fast-food restaurants. In the atrium, a huge sculpture, Shoal No. 8, made of 8,500 steel fish, recalls the former activity of the place. It is the work of the Scabetti Studio. A must see even if you don't like shopping.

This chocolate factory exists since 1923. Even today, the chocolates are still made on the premises. A gourmet address run by Tina Jacobsen. A choice of classic chocolates but also many new ones. House speciality: the snowball. An embossed base and a little bit of fresh cream! An original idea to say the least: you can buy your own cocoa tree in their Colombian plantation! A nice way to support local farmers while making you happy at the same time. The little café next door offers hot chocolate or ice cream.

Gourmet friends, don't miss out! An address inspired by memories of childhood desserts. A French madeleine without the Proust! The mouth-watering pastries you can admire in the window will make your day. Here, you'll taste pastries revisited. Le Petit Futé loved the Dolce tentation: a chocolate pistachio Alpaco cream sablé with pistachio orange blossom ganache. Impossible to resist! For a snack break or lunch, choose the bistro formula.
