Always my go to place in CPH. The service is the best and thank you so much for the free shots and free Underberg too the other night , not sure if I’m a fan of that tho 😂 but it was so nice of the team to send it over for free too 🥰 couldn’t be a friendlier bunch, the guy in the pic sat with me and we had a laugh all night long, total Hygge ❤️ thank you guys I will be back as always. The time before that when I came I left my bag and you looked after it till the next day. 10/10 Elsker dig Vi ses
A fun gay bar! Very small inside and cramped even if you have a table but it was great chance to speak with the locals who were all so friendly and welcoming. Staff were super friendly and service was great! Great selection of drinks too they have something for everyone!
Hidden gem, so fun and good music, decorated very well. Always busy, friendly atmosphere and quite spacious, only people smoke inside
Genuine Danish place! Apparently, the oldest Gay bar in Copenhagen was founded in 1917. Buy sandwiches around the corner and bring them here for eating. You buy your drinks here and they will supply plates and cutlery. Smoking is allowed here, which we, non-Danish are unused to these days.
We went to check out this bar in our last night in Copenhagen and it was VERY popular. The bar was packed the entire time we were there and there was barely a seat available. The bar was filled with a mix of locals and tourists visiting. There was also a large group of office workers who had just got off for the day and were out for a drink. This bar is VERY popular because you can still smoke inside. This was not my favorite part because when there were a lot of people smoking together it became very heavy inside. But other then that, we had a great time and everyone we met was very welcoming and friendly.
