THE trendy place, good food, good concept, always crowded. If you are a group (3 or 4), better to book a room in advance.

Tiny restaurant by the canals with unique view and atmosphere, well hidden. Organic and local food. Also a sauna for use, the Danes usually go there before a jump in the fresh water. Highly recommended for a unique experience, outside of any touristic places.

Mit Kindern reisen
Travelling with kids and babies
Copenhagen is probably the easiest capital city to travel with kids and babies, everything is made for it: easy access to public transportation with elevators in every metro/train station, etc. The Danes usually let their babies sleep outside, including in the winter so don't be surprise to see strolleys with sleeping babies parked outside of cafes with parents inside ;)
Was einpacken?
What clothes to bring
The weather can be very versatile in Denmark and it's not rare to experience sun and rain in the same day. I would advise to bring some water repellent and wind-proof clothes (or at least an umbrella). The wind is also often strong here.
