The food options are remarkable in Copenhagen, and while pricey, they are often unforgettable. The cafe scene is also top-notch.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but Sanchez rivals - or tops - the very best restaurants in Mexico City. Do not miss this one.
Sanchez
This is where to go to get fish. Period.
Kødbyens Fiskebar
Excellent, super rich ice cream with a lot of flavors (and maybe a line - but it moves quickly!).
Ismageriet
Good coffee, good brunch.
12cph
Cafe meets bookstore? Sold.
Paludan Bogcafe
If you're gluten free, don't miss this outstanding gluten-free bakery.
H.U.G Bageri
Incredible pizza.
Bæst
Natural wine bar made famous by Dua Lipa.
Pompette
A neighborhood bar with vinyl tunes and classic cocktails.
Bird
One of the best cocktail bars in the city - and the mid-century modern decor is to die for.
Duck and Cover Bar
Lovely wine bar, where every drink comes with a small tapa.
Matching Grapes
The pastries! (Plus how cute is their logo.)
Hart Bageri

I would travel to Denmark just to go back to this museum. The grounds alone are worth the 45-min train ride outside of Copenhagen. Their cafe is also excellent.
Louisiana Museum of Modern Art
A really great museum that explores the history and influence of Danish design. It also has a nice outside area to enjoy during good weather.
Designmuseum Denmark
A quirky, colorful ceramics and glass studio.
Studio Arhoj
Great shoes, especially flats, kitten heels, and sandals!
ALOHAS
Get a taste of Danish design at this cool home store.
HAY
The architecture boat tour was a highlight for us!
Boat and Canal Tour Copenhagen
The most aesthetic bookstore in the world. (Come here for coffee table books, not your next fiction read.)
New Mags
Excellent, historic bookstore with lots of English-language book options
Boghallen
Eco-conscious, organic clothing. Good for basics.
Basic Apparel
High-end second-hand store with great finds and helpful service.
Reseller
Where Dua Lipa gets her claw clips. Can confirm they're great.
Pico Copenhagen
Stay
A luxury hotel that's worth the splurge (I used points!). The service is incredible, and the rooms will have you dreaming up a redesign of your own house.
