My personal favourite for shopping in Copenhagen is the menswear store Goods. Its broad selection of brands is the extremely well curated, and the combination of classic quality and impeccable old-school service makes this store a true gem.
Holly Golightly is a beautiful and eclectic store, curated by Bibi Werner, who has an expert eye for putting together fashion, art and accessories to create a universe all of her own. The store itself is a destination, but phone ahead as it is only open by appointment.
I love reading and Tranquebar is by far my favourite bookstore. I can spend hours browsing in here, and their recommendations have never failed me. Delicious coffee too!

I love vintage shopping and a great deal of the furniture, art and objects owned by me and my wife Lotte are second-hand. Klassik is the ultimate store for buying vintage Danish design. Everything has been carefully restored by master craftsmen before being put up for sale.
Visit us at Studio Cim Mahony for a haircut or a browse through our curated selection of holistic beauty brands, including our own sleep apparel brand, The Beauty Sleeper.

Madbutikkenestin is a small and unpretentious little lunch spot that has been my go-to nearly every day for a decade. It is perfect for a healthy, light, homemade lunch. It’s also close to the canal district, Nyhavn, and the royal castle, Amalienborg, which are both boxes to be ticked when visiting Copenhagen.
Home to the best pizza I have ever tasted (they actually make their own burrata and mozzarella), Baest has a great dining room and is also in the most happening neighbourhood in town, Nørrebro.
This restaurant hardly needs an introduction. If, like me, you are a foodie, Noma is a must-visit when in Copenhagen. An unforgettable experience is guaranteed.
