Best cocktail bar
Ruby
Just around the corner from Klosteret, Ruby offers world-class cocktails in a townhouse setting that feels both intimate and refined. Think candlelight, velvet, and bartenders who know your mood before you do. International, elegant, and always worth a visit.

Cocktails in beautiful surroundings
Nimb Bar
The closest cocktail bar to Klosteret – and one of the most atmospheric. Located inside the fairytale facade of Nimb Hotel, this bar mixes elegance with intimacy. Our guests from Amsterdam and Brazil loved it. So do we.

Historic elegance
Brønnum
Set in the former Royal Theatre’s antechamber, Brønnum is where history meets hedonism. Once frequented by H.C. Andersen and other luminaries, today it’s a cocktail bar rich in soul and woodwork. Order something classic and take in the carved pharmacy bar.

Champagne first
Balthazar
Located at the d’Angleterre, Balthazar is Copenhagen’s only dedicated champagne bar – glamorous, gilded and unapologetically French. Expect oysters, bubbles and beautiful people. Perfect for toasts, tête-à-têtes or just a quiet glass of something sharp.

Atrium lounge
PS Bar & Grill
A lively mix of lounge and late-night energy, PS draws a well-dressed, mixed-age crowd in an upscale arcade near Klosteret. Music, cocktails and good people in just the right measure. Not too much, not too little – just Copenhagen at night.

Art deco club
Dandy
All plush velvet, brass details and curated cocktails, Dandy is where design sets the tone. Somewhere between a lounge and a nightclub, it’s intimate, indulgent and impeccably styled. A late-night favourite for those who dress for the room.

High-end nightclub
Lusso
A compact, high-end nightclub tucked behind a modest facade. Lusso draws a stylish, in-the-know crowd for late drinks, table service and curated beats. Fashionable and discreet, polished, and for those who prefer their nights exclusive but unpretentious.

High-end nightclub
Søpavillonen
Set by the lakes with floor-to-ceiling views, Søpavillonen is where Copenhagen dresses up. Sleek design, VIP tables, and a dancefloor that fills late with locals, expats and guests in the know. Bold, bright and built for long nights.

Old school hygge
Bo-Bi Bar
One of the city’s oldest and coziest “brune værtshuse,” Bo-Bi is where old Copenhagen lingers in the woodwork and the regulars know your name. No music, no menu – just beer, candlelight and quiet conversation. A local institution with soul.
