Guðrun's Goodies Copenhagen

A taste of Iceland!

Penelope from Copenhagen

I go by the name of "Penelope Diamante" as a writer, as it is as international as I am...! I am though known with different names online - one being Penny D Photo, for my photography- and my digital footprint is now impossible to erase!

"Guðrun's Goodies is a very cute and colorful 'Coffee-Bar' for a cosy brunch with great coffee and lots of Icelandic treats!"

This hidden, beautiful café is definitely worth a visit if you are looking for something different in Copenhagen, specifically a taste of Iceland! A colorful 'Coffee-Bar' as the owner promotes it, right in the middle of the city, but in a small street where you might easily miss it!

Quite a few Icelandic delicacies and specialties, as well as one of the cheapest (yet nicest) cappuccinos in town, only 39 kroner — and a proper size! Also, a lot of Icelandic books and magazines if you are learning Icelandic or are from Iceland, plus some Icelandic products to buy as well. Great atmosphere, although don't expect the warmth and hospitality you would get in the South — there is the 'hygge' (=cosiness) though for sure!

The All-Day-Brunch steals the impressions, a platter full of tasty stuff including Icelandic specialties, but better go on an empty stomach for that!
Overall, a very cute place for a cosy morning or afternoon, with great coffee and lots of treats!

Dansekapellet

Dancing at the old crematorium

Dancing under the dome in the big ellipse-shaped room or simply lying down for a sound bath is a wonderful way to spend your time in Copenhagen.

Svanemølle-molen

Best pier in town

Even when the temperature descends to freezing, you’ll still see folks making use of the space, many just walking to the tip and enjoying the view.

Café Lindevang

Tradition since 1938

You come for the tradition and the ambience, but just as importantly, you come for the good food. Nothing too fancy, but hearty and delicious.

So go wander amongst the students engaged in discussions, people meeting for language exchange and remember to notice the local art decorating the walls.

Lersøparken

Plenty of space

What's especially great about this patch of nature is the huge grass lawn. A lot of people come here to play soccer, frisbee or to walk their dogs.
