Rug Bakery

Copenhagen is known for delicious pastries, and if you want to avoid some of the more crowded spots downtown, then Rug Bakery is the perfect alternative. Not only do they have delicious baked goods that change with the season, but they also offer a great brunch menu.

Coffee and lunch spot with vintage Danish decor that feels like a grandmother’s living room (“mormor” means grandma)
