This place is none other than the legendary gathering spot for beer lovers — famous not just locally, but globally within the craft beer scene. Many people travel to Copenhagen every year just to attend the MBCC festival hosted by this brand.🍻🌍
The drinkers here are truly unstoppable — come rain or shine, they’ll brave the weather and sit outdoors just to enjoy a pint, since indoor seating is very limited. Some past reviews even mentioned there being “introvert-only seats”… Excuse me? Have you ever seen an introverted drunk? Once the drinks kick in, they’re dying to chat up anyone nearby! 🤣
There’s no such thing as an “i-person” (introvert) here — strangers quickly find something in common over a pint. The bar offers a wide variety of beer styles: fruity, sour, bitter, stouts, lagers, wheat beers, red ales, IPAs — you name it. For anyone who used to think beer only meant Carlsberg, this place will open a whole new world. 🍺🌈
The staff at the counter are super professional. If it’s your first visit, they’ll happily recommend beers based on your preferences.
And for non-drinkers, it’s still worth visiting just to soak in the local vibe. If you’re the type who enjoys striking up a conversation the moment you sit down with a drink, this place is heaven. Just be warned — the ambient noise here is definitely on the...
Read moreWe've visited this Mikkeller bar on 2 other trips and our outstanding experience this time was just as we've come to expect. First, you're not going to find a bad beer on the list.

Did I mention the bartenders are top notch? Super attentive and friendly if you need something, but not overbearing when you just want to enjoy your drink in peace.
The place is family friendly, as well. I wouldn't bring a child who couldn't be reasonably well behaved, but we brought our toddler in and not only were the bartenders really welcoming and cool about it, one of the guys even shared his milk from his lunch with our son so he had a drink besides water.
Don't think too hard about it. This place is worth your time, ...
Read moreVisiting Copenhagen wouldn’t be complete without stopping by Mikkeller’s original bar. The space is cozy and located in a semi-basement (though it still has windows facing outside), resembling a typical local bar. Inside, it’s filled with people enjoying their beers—some alone, others in groups—creating a lively and welcoming atmosphere.
The beer menu is written on a blackboard behind the bar. The staff are friendly and happy to provide recommendations. I opted for an IPA, which had a gorgeous amber color, rich aroma, and delightful sweetness. It truly lives up to the reputation of a world-renowned craft beer brand. The thoughtful design and branding behind Mikkeller also add to the...
