A friend recommended Kalaset and I'm so glad they did! My friend is flexitarian & able to have many options. I did the tasting menu and was beyond thrilled. The meal was filling and delicious. I had 2 of the blueberry mojitos which was incredible with the fresh blueberry jam. Highly recommend. read more

Went into Kalaset for quick breakfast. Was able to get a table no problem 10:30 on a Thursday morning, but was busy by the time we were leaving. Ordered at the counter and received our food at the table. It has a very cute and cozy aesthetic. Mismatched furniture, candles, and blankets galore. Ordered the Scrambled Egg & Bacon. Came as an open faced sandwich with tasty green smash. There was a sausage nestled under the eggs that was really good! Also ordered the banana bread. I was expecting something small but was surprised to be served 3 slices of banana bread topped with homemade blueberry compote, bananas, and walnuts. The banana bread is really moist - almost like carrot cake texture. The compote isn't too sweet and was perfect for breakfast. read more

Great vegan options. The options are a bit more limited from 3-5 but they still have smaller snacks like fries and banana bread. For the brunch and dinner times they have some solid meal options. Good for vegans and non vegans. I got the nørrebro burger which is quite tasty. read more

We arrived just early enough to get an outside table as it became much busier quickly. We didn't have a reservation and felt lucky about the timing. The food was fantastic and the staff were all very friendly and nice. We both had eggs Benedict variations that were delicious. They make them on brioche rolls, which is a brilliant option. And their coffee is superb. Lovely spot for a leisurely weekend brunch. read more

Cute and popular brunch spot conveniently located near many of the fun spots in Copenhagen- we were able to reserve a table online and I'm glad we did because they got busy very quickly. You order at the bar and they come deliver the food to your table- good food and service overall! read more

Came for the pancakes since they looked so fluffy and delicious in the pictures. They look just as fluffy and delicious in person BUT they were so dense that the texture was exactly like a scone. Now I love scones but I didn't order scones. I ordered pancakes. The flavor was good and all but I couldn't get over how the texture was nothing like pancakes. Also they barely gave any syrup. When ordering the pancakes just know ahead of time that they are not fluffy. They are dense like a scone. If you know this before ordering them, you will not be disappointed. read more

My friends and I got two of the breakfast bundles, blueberry pancake, and a giant chocolate chip cookie. The two breakfast bundles (falafel and sausages): eggs were wayy overly cooked, sourdoughs are not toasted and cold, and the roasted veges were alright. Falafel and sausages were the only highlight but the portions were so little!!! Like two tiny sausage link and two bits of falafels! The pancake was alright! And the choco chip cookies were super hard. Four of us split and paid around $10.20 or 65kr so it was worth it for the price but don't think we will come again. read more

Cute little cafe on our way back to main downtown Copenhagen. The blueberry smoothie we got here was good, as was the open faced sandwich that Denmark is known for. (smoothie more than sandwich). It was warm, inviting, and a great place to people watch as people traveled back and forth. read more

It's a lovely place so close to Nørreport, among those shady looking ones. I usually referred to Kalaset as the Swedish cafe, simply because "kalaset" means party in Swedish and that they serve a lot of different pancakes. To sum it short, Kalaset is a cafe that serves brunch, Cafe food and turns into somewhat a bar at night (they have long opening hours for that sake). It's a cozy cafe for sure and that said, the food is nothing special. Their brunch plates are still like the old yore where they mix a lot of stuff in your plate, and despite the bacon was really nice, it was kind of boring. The only positive thing about this place, apart from the address so close to Nørreport, so central, is the vegan / vegetarian option. If you have a vegan / vegetarian friend, this might be the obvious choice to go. read more

Eggs are delicious, a lot of food for the price in the area. GREAT potatoes. Bacon is if you want to sit outside - seating is somewhat limited. Also, no table service. Order and sit down. Favorite breakfast place so far ! read more

I love the idea they have here. All the food they cook is straight from grandma's recipe book including homemade ketchup and sauces! I dined alone and didn't feel at all judged or uncomfortable which is always a major bonus to! I had the vegan burger and a glass of house wine, it came quickly but I enjoyed it slowly as I savored every bite. I love CPH read more

Quirky, fun place to have a delicious brunch! The decor is a mix of retro, hipster and a flashback to the 60's which gives a great ambiance and environment to a yummy meal. You MUST try their raspberry hot chocolate with marshmallows! If you try it and don't like it, I give you full permission to send me hate mail. It is typically pretty busy for brunch/lunch, but I have never had to wait more than 15 mins. read more

Kalaset - Brunch! Banana and Chocolate pancakes and MorMor plate to share - Cafes Near Me - København K, 84

Kalaset is a cafe that is a safe option for a meal any time of the day. It is located very close to Nørreport and is always full of people. Good also for coffee in daytime or beers in the afternoon/evening. To start with I would like to give 5 points for the service. The staff is friendly and helpful and they have a smile while doing that. You order at the bar, they bring it to your table and you pay in the end. And on top of that, the service is fast. The interior is charming, with numerous radios and stereos hanging on the walls. Candles on each table, various different pieces of furniture and a bit old style feeling. It's cosy and good for a chill evening for a dinner. I have heard their pancakes are the must try, but still hadn't had the pleasure. I had the Saigon salad which included ginger marinated beef and noodles. It was delicious, well prepared and filled me up. It also included a fair amount of beef, so good value for money. Definitely recommended to ginger lovers! read more

The food was pretty good. It was a bit slower than I'm used to, but the staff seemed like they were having a busy day. My friends and I sat by the second door, which let in a great breeze. I had the homemade iced tea, which wasn't great. It didn't taste like iced tea, but I'm sure there are a lot of people who would love it. It just wasn't my thing. Their homemade Nutella was excellent. read more

Found this place on yelp and decided to give it a try. It was a nice walk over the bridge from my hostel and wasn't difficult to spot. At first I was confused and didn't know about the self-service component. When I walked in, I told them it was just me so they gave me a table and an English menu. Once I figured out what I wanted, I had to go up to the end of the bar and tell the waiter where my table was along with my order. You have to grab your own utensils and if you order a drink, you'll have to wait by the bar for that as well. The food came within a few minutes. The iced coffee was extremely fresh and their carrot cake was delicious! Great food at good prices - I definitely would visit again. read more

Okay so we only ever had the Aperol spritz and didn't order any food, but here me out: at 65 kr it's a very good deal. I never found a better price. There's some nice seating outside in the shade that is perfect for a sunny day. We saw the food menu and...it wasn't for us. I guess I just feel that culturally appropriated Indian food is something I can get anywhere. When in Denmark, get the smørrebrod, pastries, and hot dogs. read more

Very good, very cozy, really nice service! I had the vegan brunch plate which was pretty good. The vegan Nutella and blueberry jam were definitely highlights of the meal! The smoothie was also so good (and I definitely wished it was a bit bigger). It gets pretty busy in here so show up a little earlier for brunch to avoid waiting. read more

Funky and fun with lots of great brunch options at good and fair prices. I have only eaten breakfast here and it is always packed, but I've never had to wait long for a table. Service is friendly and efficient. Tables on the sidewalk when the sun is out. Quirky and eclectic decor fun and different in Copenhagen best known for its sleek Danish designed spaces. Big fluffy pancakes and house-made preserves or nutella a plus. The chia seed pudding fresh and not too sweet. Need something a little bigger, try the Mormor with sausages, eggs and fish cakes. Espressos to order, smoothies, juices, beer, wine and cocktails available. read more

Kalaset is my "sure option". It's always good, no matter what time during the day you come. I believe that they have the best brunch in Copenhagen, with creative things on the plate. (And you get a refill of your coffee for 5 DKK when you eat brunch - yay!). Their snacks during the day are good, their burgers delicious, their other dinner options good and the drinks they serve are always nice. I'm quite sure that Kalaset mainly use organic ingredients, and there are always different vegetarian and vegan options. The prices are good/normal - and you get big portions. I love Kalaset for the atmosphere. It's great to hang out here during the day, and sit outside in the sun. And it's nice inside, with retro furniture and old school design elements. read more

Fantastic brunch! It's *tight* inside, but it's cozy, friendly and perfect on the weekend. The Mormor Brunch - which seems like the signature item - has got a little bit of everything. The scrambled eggs with bacon are top notch, and the chili sausages? Nom-licious. It's a touch pricey at 120kr but the pancakes are a more reasonable 65kr. read more

It`s a cozy little brunch and coffee place that I occasionally visit as it`s nearby my school. It is a bit like many other places around Copenhagen - cozy, hipstery, vibrant. Food in this place is decent. My personal favorite is Kalaset burger that comes with potato wedges and homemade tomato sauce, but they have also classical Copenhagen brunch and other good things in life. It gets quite busy, especially during the mid-day, so there are chances that there will be no seats available, especially if you turn up in groups. Also waiting time can be rather long, but I guess it depends on how busy it is and who works in the kitchen. read more

We went for brunch as part of a bachelor party. At 10.30 AM we could find a table for 5, coming at 11 AM would have been harder. The decor is cozy and the staff was friendly. There were all sorts of people and groups. Good experience. On the food side we got "Mormors brunch". It was a perfectly sized brunch with bacon, eggs, chili sausage (very good), brie cheese, a small yoghurt and some bread. They also have non regular beers. The group agreed it was a great experience. read more

I gotta say, I've been back to Kalaset a few times now and continue to be tickled by the overall scene. It's kind of a no-nonsense, no-pretension, get-yourself-a-drink-and-enjoy-the-good-times bar. I've come here in mixed company and there's pretty much a drink for everyone, and the DJ'd music somehow magically seems to satisfy most tastes. It's never horribly crowded, which I, personally, really appreciate, because there is nothing worse than spilling your drink on yourself because some drunk idiot got nudged by some other drunk idiot and the only place for him to fall was into you. Whenever I'm in the Nørreport area, I usually end up here at some point in time in the night. It's an easy crowd pleaser. read more

Cosy little Kalaset is a cafe and student hang out not far from Norreport Metro Station. It's got a great ambiance going on and friendly service. I wish I could tell you all about their menu, but the truth is that I keep coming back for the same item over and over again: Kalaset makes probably the best veggie burger in the city, served with exquisite thick-cut potatoes and homemade ketchup. I also recommend their all-natural chili chai latte. read more

I've never been here for anything other than brunch, but in my opinion, this is easily the best brunch in Copenhagen. And that is saying a lot, as Copenhagen really delivers on the brunch front for being Europe. It is a really cute place with a cosy atmosphere and lots of character; mismatched tables and chairs in different colors, and lots of retro trinkets, books and hipster adornments everywhere. I always get the scrambled eggs on dark Danish bread, and the pancakes. I'm telling you, do NOT miss out on the pancakes! They are truly fabulous. read more

Just went here again for brunch...and the brunch was just as amazing as the dinner I had a week ago! I got the pancakes with maple syrup and fruit...and they were hands down the best pancakes I have ever tasted. They have the formula down! The pancakes were crispy, buttery, and were sweet but not overly sweet (helpful because they don't drown their pancakes in syrup here like we do in the States!). My friend had the walnut pancakes with raspberries and also loved them. The guy working the register recommended the banana/chocolate pancakes, so I'll definitely be coming back to try those before I leave Denmark. The brunch menu had a variety of options for vegetarians, and a really tasty looking vegan plate that had falafel, lentils, and other savory brunch items. It seems like Kalaset is pretty accommodating to all types of diets, so if you have a vegan in your party take them here! (I'm sure the meat is good here too!) read more

This is a fantastic spot for breakfast and brunch, particularly if you're feeling a bit homesick for a little bit of an American breakfast. It has a cozy feel with mixed and mismatched chairs and tables. The menus are an ode to the owner's grandmother, which is sweet. The food is excellent. I was able to get a full breakfast with eggs, bacon, sausage, fruit, a bit of greens, cheese, and bread. I ate very well and felt like I really got some of everything. What's not to like? * Scrambled eggs * Pancakes * Vegetarian and vegan options! * Mostly house-made items (including even their jam, ketchup, mayonnaise) This is a bit of a hot spot but with good reason. The prices aren't cheap, but such is life in Copenhagen. I'd definitely go back. read more

This was a delicious and random find while walking around Copenhagen. We were hoping to find a "reasonably priced" restaurant for dinner. This was the perfect place for us! It was a quaint and diverse place for being just a cafe. Kalaset was decorated with mismatched tables and chairs and eclectic posters throughout. We had some refreshing beers with our dinner as well. We ordered the pasta of the day, smorgasbord plate, a burger and a salad. Everything was very tasty. I would definitely recommend a stop here for a snack, beer, and/or meal! read more

Kalaset is a pleasant place. Everything is pleasant about it. The decadent hot chocolate deluxe and the grandma-seating. Only not pleasant thing was that one time I was in there and waited for my friend for, like, two minutes. Before he arrived, I thought, "nah, I'll just get that coffee now instead of waiting like a baboon" and the dude behind the counter was SUPER RUDE about it, greeting me with a sour puss and saying "thought you were gonna stand there all day" and shit. But whatevs, normally they're a friendly bunch, which might be why there is never any room. That and the decadent hot chocolate deluxe. read more

Relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Groups of people talking to their friends. Decent selection of beers, although nothing spectacular. Friendly and competent staff made us feel right at home. read more

A quirky but homey place to grab brunch in Copenhagen. The Tante Vegan (falafel brunch plate) was delicious, as were the blueberry pancakes. There's a little self-serve area where you can heap homemade, organic jams, ketchup, and nutella (!!!) onto your plate. A good spot to get brunch with a friend or two on the weekend! read more

This was the cutest place I ever had beers at on a Friday night! I mean; grandmother's little home that also opens up in the evenings (and nights)?! Perfect. Then I found out Kalaset really is more of a breakfast/brunch/lunch place and I'm really sad I missed out on that. They must have the best vegan brunch and I can't wait to try it when I'm back in Copenhagen. Although I'd go back no matter what, as their collection of radios is pretty cool, the setting is cute, the staff is ok-nice and the drinks are ok-priced too. read more

Bummed on it completely randomly and turned to be a very good option. Small range of beers, but brands hard to find elsewhere. Their wine was very nice and their menu all made freshly from scratch! Deco was nice and cosy and service very good. They have menus both in Danish and English. I had the Brooklyn burger (with blue cheese) served with home-made ketchup on the side and a friend had the hummus. Mmmm-M!!! Spot on temperature and flavour balance. I genuinely don't care about the rest of the menu any more (but the rest of you guys should try the rest)! Deco was nice and cosy and service very good. They have menus both in Danish and English. read more

Really great brunch spot - especially if you are lucky to catch a table in the sunshine! I had the mormor brunch which truly has a little bit of everything, and I actually enjoyed each and every item. The food is arranged on the plate in such a way that it is slightly deceiving, you don't really realize how much is really there until you start digging in. I surprised myself by not being able to finish it all (in hindsight, perhaps I did not need the fruit smoothee on the side - although it was tasty!). Three of the others at our table ordered pancakes which looked amazing - especially the one who opted for bacon on top! read more

My Airbnb host's mother recommended this café/bar as a good local spot that she and her son frequent often for brunch. Being that it was also highly praised both here and on TripAdvisor, it wasn't exactly a tough decision! You could tell that it's both a local favorite and well known to visitors, because I heard at least 3 or 4 different languages spoken at the table around me. The place sits in the corner basement in central Copenhagen, not far from Norrebro. It's a hipster delight: all kinds of stuff on the walls, most of it obsolete. Not all of the tables are real dining tables; the one I sat at had an old sewing machine pedal at the bottom, which made a nice footrest. Ordering and paying for food are both done at the bar, so all the wait staff does is clear a place for you and bring your food later. The apologized for the delay in getting food to the table because it was so busy when I came, but I really wasn't that bothered. A 40-45 minute wait from hitting the door to getting food isn't that unusual for popular brunch spots during peak rush here in the US, so why should I be upset there? I opted for one of the heartier breakfasts that came with several different meats and fish cakes, potatoes, etc. The little smoothie shot was a nice finish! The whole thing was so delicious and filling, great fuel for a long day of exploring the city on foot. read more
