This post is going to be super visual and truly drool-worthy…consider yourself warned!
The weather forecast wasn’t looking great, but my friend and I were determined to visit Reffen, a food market set up like a little village on the other side of the water from Copenhagen city centre. Thankfully it didn’t rain on the day we visited – we even caught a bit of sun. It’s a short trip up with the bike/bus/water taxi from town – we went with the water taxi, which would be a great option for a sunny day.
To my knowledge, this place is one of the few Street food markets in Copenhagen (apart from the fancy Torvehallerne by NΓΈrreport, which is dangerously close to my workplace…) As someone who used to work in a food stall in multiple food markets back in the UK, I’m a little surprised that there aren’t more of them in the capital here in Denmark. But I’m not complaining – the selection is good.
Reffen has a bit of a grungy vibe with lots of containers around…kind of reminds me of the Cargo project in Bristol (my favourite Harbourside eating area in Bristol basically)This photo says it all – everything is contactless and there are reminders everywhere to keep up hygiene.I definitely don’t need to be told twice to get ice cream. The ice cream shop is called “BadHabits” by the way – very fitting.Honestly, the ice cream here was really good.Outdoor stalls and seating around the food “village.”Love how colourful everything is!More food, more containers…Cute outdoor dining area right next to the water.How very Danish π I did mention in a previous post how difficult it is to take photos here without some kind of a bike in it, did I not?Now for some food! That’s freshly grated truffle – cost me an arm but it was worth it.So many options…There’s also some cute shops around that aren’t food stalls.Me being an embarrassing tourist.Hope you’re not too hungry after reading this, ha.
Thank you, hope so too:) I am originally from Hamburg, so it might just be on the cards. Will definitely check out this very cool looking Street food market when in Copenhagen. Such an inviting, playful look!
Simpley loved Copenhagen during my 4 day visit in 2014. Stayed in Valbey at a wonderful couples house. Ate at a place named Cocks and Cows on Grammel Strand. Pretty good burgers and nice wait staff. Wish I would have known of that outdoor market looks like a fun place to explore.
Looks a tasty day out! π

The food looks yummy and I love all the colorful stands and signs. I’m sure I’d fit in with the biking too. Another place for my bucket list!
