Best Wienerbrød
in Copenhagen

Wienerbrød is the famous Danish pastry that has conquered the world with its flaky layers. It is made from a laminated yeast-leavened dough that is folded multiple times to create a light texture. The pastries are typically filled with custard, almond paste, or fruit jams and topped with icing or sugar. Despite the name suggesting a Viennese origin, Danish bakers have perfected and popularized this art form over centuries. It is the perfect accompaniment to a morning coffee or an afternoon break in the city.

Lille Bageri

Order:

0.00 stamped

Verdict: Lille Bageri opened in summer 2018 on Refshaleøen with a Kickstarter-funded oven, sourcing flour from Kragegården on Fyn and Kornby Mølle north of Copenhagen — a grain-focused ethos that draws bakers from around the world. The spandauer with vanilla custard and a buttery croissant are the daily items; the remote island location means shorter queues than city bakeries, but budget 20 minutes for the harbour bus. — Refshaleøen

Meyers Bageri

Order:

0.00 stamped

Verdict: Meyers Bageri on Jægersborggade in Nørrebro is the bakery arm of the Claus Meyer food empire, and its flæskestegssandwich uses house-baked bread and pork roasted with attention to crackling quality. The sandwich is a morning-to-midday affair; the bakery opens early and the best sandwiches go fast before mid-morning. Walk-in only; expect a short queue on weekends. — Nørrebro

Conditori La Glace

Order:

0.00 stamped

Verdict: Conditori La Glace was founded on 8 October 1870 by confectioner Nicolaus Henningsen and has been run by six generations at Skoubogade 3 — making it Denmark's oldest continuously operating konditori. The signature celebration cake is the Sportskage; for afternoon wienerbrød, the flødekager (puff pastry with cream and seasonal fruit) is the piece to order; formal table service means no queue, though weekend afternoons are the busiest window. — City Center
