Coffee First
$ · Budget·Leashed only
Coffee First is a small, cosy coffee bar opposite the Planetarium, beside Copenhagen's lakes in Vesterbro. It serves espresso, filter coffee, breakfast plates, sandwiches, smoothies and pastries, and several items on the menu are playfully named after dog breeds, from the Labrador citrus lemonade to a choco poodle milkshake.
Why it made the list
It states on its own website that dogs are more than welcome, and the café has a resident dog, Hugo, so dogs are part of daily life here rather than merely tolerated.
Good to know before you go
The café's website says it is a place 'hvor hunde er mere end velkomne' (where dogs are more than welcome) and introduces 'Hugo, cafeens helt egen hund', the café's own dog. In fine weather it also runs a coffee bike by the lakes. The address and the hours above are from the same site; confidence high.
Practical notes
- Sit at one of the outdoor tables facing the lakes, where there is more room for a dog than at the small indoor seats.
- The lakes and Vesterbro's grid of streets are right outside, so it works well as a mid-walk stop.
