Copenhagen Vesterbro



Vesterbro

Bang & Jensen Istegade 130. Bus #16. Mon-Fri 11am-2am, Sat & Sun 10am-2am. Vesterbro's newest in-place has high stucco ceilings and a mahogany counter left over from its former incarnation as a pharmacy. The classic old shop front has been maintained, along with the period wall decorations. It's usually packed with students, especially on Saturday nights.

Barbar Bar Vesterbrogade 51. Bus #6 or #28. Mon-Wed 10am-1am, Thurs-Sat 10am-2am, Sun 11am-6pm. Located on Vesterbro Torv near the City Museum, this unassuming place is a favourite of up-and-coming musicians and a relaxing spot for a quiet drink. There's al fresco service on the square during summer.

Hackenbusch Vesterbrogade 124. Bus #6. Mon-Thurs 10am-2am, Fri & Sat 10am-5am, Sun 10am-midnight. One of Vesterbro's older and more eccentric cafes, frequented by a mixed set. The popular and slightly pricey restaurant attracts wealthy trendsetters, while the crazy front bar, furnished with high steel-wire sofas and an ancient Portuguese table football, caters to more alternative types. The music selection, however, doesn't seem to have changed much since the place opened in the 1980s.

Keegans Bar Stenosgade 1. Bus #6 or #28. Daily 4pm-5am. A scuzzy but lively late-night/early-morning drinking den with an Anglophone clientele - beer is served in pints rather than half litres. A selection of stouts, such as Guinness and Kilkenny, is sold at very reasonable prices, and it's a cheap place for a late-night drink. There's also Sky Sports and late-night pool games.

Cafe Ludwigsen Sundesvedsgade 2. Bus #6. Mon, Tues & Sun noon-2am, Wed noon-3am, Thurs-Sat noon-5am. Outrageously popular late-night bar (despite the "cafe" in the name, there's no food) where the young, free and extremely desperate congregate en masse after hours.

Cafe Obelix Vesterbrogade 53. Bus #6 or #28. Daily 8.30am-2am. This winsome tribute to the large, menhir-wielding Breton pulls in Vesterbro's yuppies, who drink amongst themed decorations based on the Gaulish cartoon village. During summer, tables are moved outside and gas heaters make even cool nights bearable.

Pinden Reventlowsgade 4. Central Station. Daily 10am-2am. Across the road from Central Station, Pinden (The Stick) is a traditional, smoky drinking den where local old-timers hang out on worn-out furniture playing the odd game of dice - a much more entertaining meeting point than the station's cold platforms and shiny

cafes.

Cafe Sorte Hest Vesterbrogade 135. Bus #6. Mon-Thurs 11am-midnight, Fri 11am-1am, Sat 10am-1am, Sun 10am-9pm. Once a stronghold of BZ squatters during their battles with the police, Sorte Hest is now a swanky cafe where you can enjoy a quiet beer without fear of hurled cobblestones or tear gas - look out for the peculiar small glass-floor art exhibit. A pianist plays music from Chaplin movies every Sunday lunchtime and there are live bands one weekend a month.
