The LV (Travel) Guide: Copenhagen

Earlier this Summer, my husband and I traveled to Copenhagen for the very first time. We’ve both been very fortunate to have visited many places around Europe, but Denmark was one country we never had the chance to visit until this past Memorial Day weekend.

Like many of you, I’m obsessed with Scandinavian design and the overall aesthetic and Copenhagen was a natural draw. It also doesn’t hurt that the number one restaurant in the world, NOMA, was there as well. Between all the amazing shopping, design inspo and next-level meals that I’ll never forget, I would add Copenhagen to your travel bucket list ASAP.

Here are some of my favorite shops, restaurants, hotels, and places to see:

To Shop: 

• Acne Archive- Acne Outlet (limited styles but worth checking out if you’re in the neighborhood)

• Normann- furniture Retailer

• Flying Tiger- knickknacks

• Illums Bolighus- like Bergdorfs meets Ikea

• Rotate Birger Christensen - cutest dresses and curated designer finds

• Marlene Birger Store- based in Denmark

• Storm- also like Bergdrofs

• Fil De Fer- vintage furniture

To Eat: 

• Reffen- street food such as corn dogs, ice cream cones, tacos, and more!

• 108 Restaurant- modern vibes and a delicious a la carte menu

• Pluto- after hour drinks

• Emery’s- celebrate Cinnamon Bun Sunday with the locals!

• Ruby- cocktails before dinner

• Granola- for lunch

To Stay: 

• Nobis Hotel Copenhagen - we stayed here

To Do: 

• Tivoli Gardens- amusement park

• Foods of Copenhagen - culinary tour of Copenhagen on a bike! So fun, so delish!

• Vesterbro Neighbourhood- named one of the worlds coolest neighborhoods and I don’t disagree
