Hart Bageri Gammel Kongevej
Start your morning at Richard Hart's acclaimed bakery on Gammel Kongevej. In the summer months, grab one of their seasonal fruit pastries or a legendary cardamom bun and sit on the benches outside to watch the neighborhood wake up.
Cisternerne
Descend into the cavernous, dripping depths of these former water reservoirs turned subterranean art space. It is wonderfully chilly down here—a welcome escape from the midday summer heat—and features haunting, site-specific contemporary art installations.
Fasangården
Tucked away inside the royal Frederiksberg Have, this historic former pheasantry has been reborn as an exceptional lunch spot. Dine in the lush, fenced garden on elevated smørrebrød and seasonal green dishes that taste like a Danish summer.
Landbohøjskolens Have
Locals escape the busier parks for this university-managed botanical gem, which is spectacular when the rose garden is in full summer bloom. It is quiet, meticulously kept, and the perfect spot to read under a canopy of exotic trees.
Falernum
Conclude your day on Værnedamsvej, often dubbed Copenhagen's Little Paris. Secure a sidewalk table at Falernum to enjoy a glass of cold skin-contact wine and a plate of charcuterie as the warm evening sun sets over the street.
