We visited Reffen after having lunch at Øens Have and it ended up being such a fun afternoon. Reffen is set right on the waterfront in Refshaleøen and has such a great energy; live music playing, food stalls everywhere and people sitting in deck chairs facing the sun with a wine or beer in hand. The whole place has that relaxed Copenhagen vibe where people just enjoy the moment and take their time. Getting there was easy and part of the experience; we took the ferry to Refshaleøen and from the second we stepped off the boat you could hear music and see the colourful food containers ahead of us. It almost feels like a little creative village made of repurposed shipping containers, art and food. Reffen is open seasonally, mainly from spring to autumn; during summer it opens around late morning and stays open into the evening which is perfect because the atmosphere really comes alive when the sun is out. In the cooler months the hours are limited or closed altogether, so it’s definitely more of a warm-weather experience. There are so many food vendors to choose from and the variety is huge; everything from dumplings, burgers and Mexican food to smoked fish, noodles, desserts and plant-based options. It’s the kind of place where you just wander around, see what catches your eye and go with whatever smells amazing. We loved grabbing something small from one stall, then something else from another and sharing everything. It’s also such a beautiful place to sit by the water and just take it all in. Watching locals and tourists relaxing together with music playing and the harbour right in front of you makes it feel extra special. If you love street food, a fun atmosphere and places that feel a bit more local and laid back, I highly recommend visiting Reffen. It’s the perfect way to spend an afternoon in Copenhagen.

What an amazing place! Visited Copenhagen for the first time with family and had so much fun here. Took the water bus/passenger ferry to the Reffen area. That itself was a fun way of getting there. So many wonderful food and drink choices. We got Thai food, African food, Canadian food and a variety of drinks. People were all so friendly, service was fast and food came out quickly. Everything was flavorful, delicious and priced well relative to quality and size. There was plenty of outdoor and covered seating areas. It poured down raining when we went so being an umbrella if rain is in the forecast. We would definitely come back! Would love to try more places.

Such a unique experience with such a variety of foods and experiences, it's somewhere you can go with friends for food and drinks or a family trip with the kids! Would recommend making the journey over here. (The journey does take a short while from the centre of Copenhagen but certainly worth it!)

Lots of genuinely good food. Not the cheapest in the world but pretty good value when compared to everything else in Copenhagen. Loved the steak sandwich and pizza!

Got lucky with the weather and enjoyed a great day at Reffen sinking a few beers and eating some good food by the firepits. There's plenty of options for food and if the weather isn't playing ball there's a massive indoor area too. The staff are constantly buzzing around topping up the wood in the firepits and there's loads of comfy chairs dotted around. It's a cool place

A place with a very positive vibe. Many street food stands from all over the world, plus drinks, teas, coffees, sweets etc. Freshly made food upon order requires a few minutes to wait for, in most popular places. Many places to sit so although it was Saturday we found a table (beer garden) without any trouble. All set in post industrial zone.

Great variety and cozy outdoor vibes – just wish for more fire pits! Reffen is a great spot if you're looking to try different cuisines in one place – there's a huge variety of food from all over the world. The outdoor area has a really nice atmosphere, especially with the wood fire pits that keep you warm on colder days. We really liked that touch – it made the place feel super cozy. The only downside was that it was quite busy, and all the seats near the fire were taken, so we couldn’t find a warm spot to sit. I wish there were more fire pits or heated areas, especially during peak times. Otherwise, it was a great experience, and I’d definitely come back!

Absolutely loved this place. The wide variety of street food options and the nice atmosphere make this place really pleasant. There is also a central area where to chill with sand and a bonfire, perfect for summer nights.

If you like street food and you like multi-international, and want it all in one place, Refshaleøen is the place for you. This warehouse area was created as a haven for drinking, eating, and music and is quite popular with locals and tourist alike. Reffen is the largest street food market in northern Europe. There are over 35 restaurant stalls run by independent owners, 10 bars and an onsite brewery. The food is relatively inexpensive, and is generally of good quality. The vibe of this place is very lively and there is typically lots of music too. The variety of food is astonishing. We were able to sample food from several stalls and we enjoyed all of it.

Reffen is basically Copenhagen's ultimate hangout spot. I started off with a Weissbier from Reffen Brewery (pro tip: get one) and honestly, it was so good I considered a second breakfast just to justify another round. The food options here are wild -- you can snack your way across the globe without ever leaving the park. One minute it's tacos, the next it's dumplings, then suddenly you're eating something you can't even pronounce but tastes amazing. The skate park gives it a cool, laid-back energy, and the views by the water are just the cherry on top. Perfect spot to grab a bite, sip a beer, people-watch, and pretend you're way cooler than you actually are. Highly recommend.

Reffen is just a fun spot to hang out and grab a quick bite, a drink or a full meal. It's a big outdoor street food market right by the water, with food stalls in old shipping containers and a really cool, laid-back vibe. Perfect place to go when the weather's nice. Tons of affordable food options, with something for everyone. It offers everything from tacos to Thai, burgers, vegan, Asian, Greek, and everything in between. You can easily spend a few hours there just eating, drinking, and people-watching. Great food, laidback atmosphere, a really good time all around. Don't miss it if you're in Copenhagen.

Up first Fish and Chips with the Calamari.. the weather was decent so we decided to see the city ..... I'm from the south in the US so we gone see what this hitting on ... everything was prepared fresh. The fish was under-seasoned but once again in from the south and had may an unfair expectation .. BUT the calamari and the fries were the highlight of the meal ... They were both season perfectly ... had me in awe.. in its entirety this is exactly what I needed to feed the other vices lol

I learned a lot of things at Reffen Street Food. I learned that an old shipyard can, with a little imagination, be turned into a fun gathering spot for a Saturday night. I learned that a Danish Hot Dog is tasty, though I could easily skip the massive amount of fried onions next time. I learned that Kurdish meat and vegetables, cooked over coals, is most delicious. I even learned that gender-neutral toilets work just fine for a huge gathering of strangers. Thanks Reffen, for good drinks and food, fun music, and a beautiful summer sunset.

This place is on all the lists to try if in Copenhagen, so tonight I came here even if it was cold, wet and windy AF out. The weather was really kind of sucky but still there were people here but a trickle, which is kind of how I like it nowadays. The wind and rain was making it really cold out so I mad a dash to get a gløgg as soon as I arrived. I was tempted by the Lumumba, which is a hot chocolate and rum with whipped cream and ooh that sounded good. I've mostly stopped drinking but tonight, I had some mulled wine to stay warm and it helped! This place is massive and initially I sat in an covered area which warmer than outside but then I moved into the warehouse, and that was super warm and hygge (cozy)! It was also nice they had a bunch of fires going outside so that warmed things up a bit. There were still quite a few vendors open for food selling burgers, crepes, duck fat fries, coffee, etc. But, I also noticed quite a few places closed too. The ice rink still had crazy people skating on ice and water and children screaming at the top of their lungs having fun! They had some winter ales on draft here, so it was nice they had some holiday selections available. Atmosphere was very chill, classy and cozy. Reminds me of some of warehouse spaces in Brooklyn. A lot of this reminds me of Williamsburg and also Bushwick. Bathrooms available inside the warehouse. Parking available out front but make sure to pay your meter via the app. I can only imagine what this place is like in the summer, must be swarming with people! I'll have to come back in the summer to check it out. Definitely check this place out, even on a cold, winery, wet night, once you come here, your heart will warm up immediately.

O M G the senses here are stimulated! Such a fun vibe! There are permanent food stalls and trucks in every direction. You decide, once you ponder over what smells best, no easy choice, then you take your food to any beer hall and decide on a beverage and indulge! There are eating spots outside by the water as well. It's worth the experience and the trip over. You can go by bus or water taxi.

This should absolutely be on your list of places to eat when traveling to Copenhagen. This is an amazing spot with tons of different food options. The vibe is super chill and everyone is too kind. There are spots to eat along the water as well as a covered area for when it rains. It is pretty easy to get to if you take the bus to the last stop and walk up a bit. There's a skate park and they often hold concerts in the area as well. I have tried so many different kinds of food here and everything is amazing. Highly recommend getting a variety of food from different carts and sharing it with friends!

Scandinavia's largest street food installation! What a fantastic space! We first wandered around the whole area to figure out what we wanted to eat, there are so many choices. As we were wandering we were offered free samples from a few booths and the food was fresh, hot and delicious. We ordered food from the Thai street food stall, chicken shish kebab from Gosht, and Mac & cheese from Cheesy Dreams... Everything was fantastic! Fresh and hot, made right in front of you while you waited. We washed it all down with a beer from the brewery located within the market. Take everyone here, there's something for everybody. We'd like to go back and try more !

Coolest place in Copenhagen by leaps and bounds--saying this as folks who recently dined at Noma. We biked out here today because one us was hell-bent on going to Mikkeller, and so we did. Great beers, of course! Get the Pils. The main attraction is the space itself, and because Denmark has figured out design+quality of life, this general area is amazing in and of itself. It's right on the waterfront, where they had a bunch of lounge chairs set up, and then there are all these different food stalls featuring different types of cuisine. The wrap place SUCKS--do not order there! One of us got a caesar salad wrap that magically tasted not at all like caesar salad that came with a side of parmesan fries and a baggie of spice mayo (no ketchup). Our daughter found some dumplings from a Chinese food stall that were pan-fried and OK, but the best thing we got (other than the beers) was a Danish hot dog. So good! Admittedly, it was a pretty bougie version with lots of embellished accoutrements on top of it, but no complaints. There are plenty of places to sit, and there's a little sandy play area for kids as well as a skate/scooter park. The area is industrial, so it's all old brick buildings and shipping containers and cool lighting, and the urban planners here just understood the assignment. So hip and fun and the vibe is amazing. You couldn't replicate this in America. Even though we had one mediocre meal here from the wrap place, and even though we got caught in a rainstorm biking back to our hotel from here, we're still landing on five stars. Loved it so much--highly recommend.

Absolutely recommend - lots of tables overlooking the water, enjoyable atmosphere, perfect for a spring/summer evening. Many different food options, which can feel overwhelming. We got Kurdish and Zambian. Both were excellent. One of the highlights of our trip to Copenhagen.

Reffen is a wonderful open market space in Copenhagen. The restaurants and shops are run out of shipping containers, and there are tons of food options to choose from. If you're someone with dietary needs or restrictions, there are signs everywhere advertising gluten free, dairy free, vegan, etc. We arrived at around noon, which ended up being a really good time to get there. There was a small crowd forming, but we were able to make our way through the market, pick a place, order, and get our food within 10-15 minutes. We appreciated being able to sit anywhere we wanted, even in an area where you did not order from (it's open seating throughout the market). Bathrooms are on-site and very clean, as well! All in all, a great experience that I highly recommend!

This place is SO COOL. We were only in Copenhagen for a very short time and absolutely loved our 24 hour layover in the city. We knew we wanted to check out this place for some much-needed treats, and decided to ride electric bikes from the city center to get there. The ride was super fun and though this location is a little "off-the-beaten-path" it was rather easy to get to and so worth it! Everything we tasted was delicious but the main stars were the Thai street food stand and the Argentinian barbecue place! Highly recommend making your way to Reffen for a wide variety of delicious food options.

It would be easy to miss this when visiting Copenhagen. It's admittedly a bit hard to get to and we went by ferry. However, it's certainly worth the trip. There are so many interesting food stalls along this outdoor street food spot. Tons of seating if you want to just relax by the makeshift sand. The vibe overall is relaxing, hip, and interesting. Even if you're not coming for food, it's worth checking out for the relaxation it provides. A great starting point for a trip to something like Copenhill.

Hungry? "Street food" all in one location, and all types, including Korean, Thai, and Mexican. In between the alcohol. Beer, wine, sangria, and cocktails. It's just a great area to come eat, drink, and hang out with the entire family, since it's right next to the water and skate park. It's all outdoors. There are a handful of non-food related retail businesses. A great glass blowing shop where you can observe the owner/artist at her craft and a men's clothing shop. Come hungry because you just have to get something from here to enjoy the full experience. Everything looked and smelled delicious. Prices are not bad either. My blueberry sangria was delicious. It tasted like candy. The restrooms are unisex stalls. Graffiti, but clean.

Great spot to spend an evening hanging out eating and drinking local foods. There's plenty of different types of both alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks. There are enough different types of foods that everyone will find something they like if you have a bigger group. It is mostly outside so just be prepared for whatever weather is happening at the time. The beer hall can get crowded during rainy weather. I had a samosa plate which I enjoyed, they weren't as spicy as I normally like but good flavor. My husband got a raclette cheese plate which was a great snack to share. We also got the pasta. I chose the truffle pasta and it was perfect for a chilly day. They rolled out the pasta dough fresh and then shaved almost an entire truffle onto the top. Wish we would've had more time and some more people to share foods with so we could've tried more.

The street food here is very diverse and yummy. I recommend getting the seafood and stopping at the beach with a drink! The chairs are open for all to use and sit to watch the sunset. The skatepark also has good people watching and there are plenty of places to sit. The restrooms are public and clean. This location was recommended to us by locals and we were not disappointed making the easy trip by bus!

Reffen is an outdoor street food market serving tasty bites from around the world. We picked up an incredible chicken domodar stew and African doughnuts with mango sauce from Gambian food stand, Baobab. Next up was the pepito sandwich from Argentinian Fuego Street Food and a glorious glizzy from Nordic Hotdog. We enjoyed the endless variety of dishes available and sunny waterside views to enjoy while munching. Refen is a must-try for foodies in Copenhagen. Smorgasbord only wishes it could be Refen

I loved this place so much! I wish we had something like this in San Diego. This spot sits right on the water. We ended up going on a Friday evening by bike. We parked our bike about 5-10 m walk away from the food vendors. There were so many different and unique options. We had Moroccan food and sangria. After we ate at a picnic table during sunset, we went to the Mikkeller. They had a DJ. I would recommend highly recommend visiting when you are in Copenhagen.

What a great area, i wish i wasn't celiac to enjoy it to the fullest. There's is a ton of variety, lots of delicious food to choose from. Chairs on the waterfront to enjoy the sunset. Can be reached on foot or bicycle of course. It is pricey as everything else in Copenhagen. A wonderful place i will surely revisit.

Fabulous food market with dozens of restaurants with foods from all over the world. Super fun, funky, vibe that's 1000% not a place to come to with a bad attitude. Lots of delicious choices, hundreds of drinks (beer, wine, spritz, mixed drinks, coffee, tea, soda... you get the idea). Absolutely worth a visit and easily accessed via water bus from Nyhavn or any of the other water bus stops

Such a cool part of town. If you're visiting Copenhagen, this is a must. You can either take a taxi or ride a bike here (I recommend a bike unless you'll be drinking). This is a collection of different food stands with international cuisine--everything from thai to nordic to Ethiopian--the possibilities are endless. All of the food stands are contained in old shipping containers which gives the whole place a very industrial vibe. There is a small beach area that opens up to the water and a DJ that plays nice music while you eat and drink. The facilities are clean and very well taken care of. I had some Pad Krapow from a Thai stand that I thought was quite good but could've been spicier and included more veggies. I will admit, I have an EXTREMELY high tolerance for spice after extended travels through Asia. Most will be satisfied with the spice levels they offer. I also tried a Nordic hot dog which was delightful! Can't go wrong with mustard, pickles and greens. Wonderful experience that I really enjoyed.

Such a fun scene! Definitely worth a visit if you're visiting Denmark when it's open. There's lots of different areas to sit and people watch. The food is pretty good, but can be a bit of a hit or miss. It's fun to go with friends and just try a few different things.

Where to begin! Well to start, my primary Yelp profile photo was taken right in Reffen so this place clearly made an impact on me. See me devouring a falafel pita wrap, and a side acai bowl. I studied abroad in Northern Europe, including Copenhagen, during a summer abroad program in July 2018. Reffen remains to be one of my favorite parts of this trip, not just for the delicious array of foods, but for the memories made, the beautiful location overlooking the water, and all the various decor like outside Mikkeller. There's something for everyone at this food market. On two separate occasions I went, I've ordered the falafel pita wrap, the acai bowl, margarita pizza, gelato, and ended one of those days with a brew from Mikkeller. A true hidden gem if you want to experience the real Copenhagen. The market is relatively easily accessible via bus or bike if you are coming from the main city. I recommend coming around 6pm in the evening to overlook the splendor of the sunset over the water. The market does get crowded around peak dinner hours, but there are lots of seating options available throughout the area. I will be back soon, Reffen!

BBQ Shrimp and Argentina classic were delicious. Paella was tasty, not over cooked. Poke bowl was also a small portion and delicious. Highly recommend. Plenty of space, great atmosphere and good food. Skateboarding, music, chairs...

So you'll find several food courts around Copenhagen, but if you had to go to one, visit this one. Tivoli Food Court is garbage. The one in Christianhavn is decent. But Reffen is the real deal. Again, this place is off the beaten path in what looks like a former construction site. All the food stalls are repurposed storage containers. I was like a kid at a toy store. After making several laps and several beers, I made my selection two places stood out. First is the Filipino stand, Thrilla in Manila. This guy makes the food at the time of order and has the best music playing. Order the combo but don't believe me, try his free samples. You won't stop at just one. The other stand you have to check out is Crispy Pork. They have the most amazing pork grinds around and again, free samples. Once you eat it, you're hooked. I ordered the sandwich and the roasted pork was so juicy and tender. It went perfectly with the pickled cabbage and pork grinds. Afterwards I just sat at the man-made beach area and relaxed.

Love this place. Fun music and waterside view. Went with a bunch of friends and we each picked something from one of the stalls and came back to share. Got to sample so much delicious food. Loved the duck burger, gyro, and chicken teriyaki stick.

Loved my experience here. Such a great variety of food, truly something for everyone. Sadly I visited when it was quite cold, although that didn't stop anyone from sitting outside enjoying a beer. I've heard the summer months here are quite the scene. Whenever people are visiting Copenhagen this is always at the top of my recommendation list.

On our travels we always love trying the local food. Our hotel luggage guy hit it out of the park by recommending we visit "Ruffen Street Food" during our short 1 night stopover in Copenhagen. This place is an amazing hole in the wall located in the middle of an old abandoned industrial area that sits on the beach and magically appears out of no where. Each vendor has their own old shipping container that they've creatively turned into a unique, fun & crazy piece of art that highlights their specialty. This place is huge yet has a relaxing calm atmosphere filled with an abundance of International food choices. There is an abundance of different sitting areas, chairs facing the beach, a band playing on the stage & a skate boarding area. My husband ordered his seafood fish & chips right away, he said it was huge, cooked to perfection & delicious. Unfortunately he wanted me to try some of his, it was so good I ended up full before I could decide on which one of the 3 choices I was going to order. My choices were New Orleans, South African or Argentina. Oh well I'll just have to go back sometime!

This is one of my FAVORITE places in Copenhagen. Not just places to eat, but place! Truly one of the best spots of the city in my opinion. While it may seem a bit odd as it is fairly out of the main part of the city, it is absolutely 100% worth the trip over. You can either take the 9A bus or bicycle to get there. It's located in an old industrial area, but once you turn the corner, you are greeted by warm string lights, a sandy area with seating and a fire pit, a beautiful view of Copenhagen across the water, and of course, a plenitude of food stall options. I've been to Reffen multiple times, trying a mixed plate of Indian food from Dhaba, a fresh summer salad from Ramsløg, and fried banana topped with ice cream (vegan!) from Organic Balance, just to name a few. While I tried those, my friends tried different options from mine, including crepes, pork sandwiches, gryos, and more. There truly is any type of food you can imagine here, with a laid back, comfortable atmosphere. I cannot recommend Reffen enough. You must make the trip over and see it for yourself!

5 stars for atmosphere and food options! You really can't go wrong coming here with a small or large group - anyone can find something that they'd enjoy food or drink wise. Live music was playing toward the waterfront and energy was great on a Friday night. I chose the Jamaican stand to change up the flavor profiles from meals I've had the rest of this week. Was mildly jerk compared to what I am accustomed to but the sides (rice + coconut, salad) were great. They JUST ran out of the rice and peas which I would have liked to have tried. I noticed signs that most vendors accepted card only - not sure if this was all but it seemed that way. Highly recommend venturing over to this hidden gem - it was a bit of a home away from home experience.

Reffen showcases the diversity of Copenhagen. Here, you can find entrepreneurs, including many immigrants, who bring their culture and their love of food to share. We got there by taking the 9A bus from Central Station and it was a good 10 minute walk in a very industrial area after we got off. It's a good thing there were signs or we would've never found it. Reffen reminds me of food cart pods in Portland, OR. It was hard to choose and we ended up with delicious chicken bastilla from the North African place and pulled pork sandwich from Deux Porcs. Both were fantastic and reasonably priced compared to other options in Copenhagen. When we left, we chose to take the water taxi, which was much closer to Reffen than the bus, and gave us a beautiful ride. Overall, it was a good time and I'm glad we trekked out of the way to look for it.

I LOVE IT! I know Ole Henriksen, the famous Danish cosmetologist abused the above words a little bit too much, but that's how I feel about Reffen. It's bigger, it's spacious, it's by the water and it's got new food trucks that I have never seen before! When Papirøen seemed a bit cramped, inside the dinghy industrial warehouse (well, you could have sit outside, but there weren't much space either), Reffen seems to be having all the space in the world. There are benches everywhere, although they're not always by the prettiest sight in the area, but worry not, you can always sit while you eat. A lot of new exciting food truck names are also here, I feel like I need to try them all, but I haven't got the time YET, but I will come to it. I had a pork BBQ from Thrilla in Manila and it was super delicious. The fries from the Meatball Show was also fantastic. The beer selection was a bit meh from their bars, but Mikkeller Baghaven is just next door. The downside of this place is that it's located way out there, but I bet you could take a shortcut from Inderhavnsbro (the Kissing Bridge) and further on from the city. We're not complaining from our side since we're relatively close by. Pro tip: Don't leave your bikes by the gate, when the board says Reffen is just around the corner, they lie! Bike further on!! :)

This was such a cute gem to find while visiting the outskirts of Copenhagen! The design reminded me of an artsy "Ready Player One" environment from all the repurposed shipping containers. There was a wide variety of cuisine from the food stalls and some cute shops scattered throughout. The ample seating made it easy for our part of 7 to grab our own meals and easily find a table to eat together. We ordered from the Thai place, Indian dosa, and Mediterranean vendors. Everything was delicious! The vendors are super nice and the prices are reasonable. The only thing I wish they had was more recycling bins, water fountains, and compost.

Coming here two times in two days, I barely tapped into the number of options Reffen offered. It's a truly cosmopolitan joint, with food from all-around the world, some famous, some obscure (see: Gambian food). The vibe here is laid-back and hip, as it is next to the water. Interestingly, this venue was actually re-made from an old shipping port stop! The food itself was decent. I had Gambian food on day one and Thai food on day two. The Gambian food was very unique and flavorful (I had the peanut chicken dish). The thai food was so-so. I waited 40 minutes for my fried rice, and it wasn't worth the wait. However, there are plenty of other places to check out - Mongolian, Indonesian, Mexican, Indian, American, Italian, Peruvian, and many more. Prices are kind of expensive here, but the range of options offered here is worth paying a visit.

Reffen is a must see place if you're visiting Copenhagen. As a part time "Keto Guido" I'm constantly on the prowl for high protein/low carb meals. Reffen is a street food park with more than enough options for keto guidos and carbloaders. Street food vendors from all over the world selling high quality food. I've been to plenty of places around the world that look kinda like it but the food doesn't taste so dam good across the board. Everything I had there was good and I ate a lot. The location on the waterfront is beautiful as well. The African food stand Baobab, the Filipino spit Thrilla in Manila and the ice cream stand called Bad Habits stood out. But I couldn't believe the variety. They had just about everything you can think of except a paleteria. I would go here regularly if I lived in Copenhagen.

Wow what a concept!!!! Glad we visited during our brief stay in the city. Get there best by the Hop On Off bus or the 9A and a little walk. Many choices of different cuisines from the world. We chose the Jamaican stand and had a wonderful jerk chicken. Lots of beer and wine vendors as well. Best value for food in this VERY EXPENSIVE city. They do not accept cash so bring your plastic.

Love it! This is a great concept. We had a great time trying out the food, sitting down relaxing with a drink, talking to different vendors hearing their story. We got there the 1st time by the hop on hop off boat. 2nd time we rode our rent bikes there. Awesome place.

This place is a hidden gem if you are looking for tons of options and something different. There are all refurbished shipping containers that have been turned into food stalls. If you can't find something to eat that you like here, you are the pickiest eater on earth. The possibilities are endless. We tried Greek, Jamaican, corn dog, and some beer.

Great outdoor area with a lot of food stands selling ethnic food and beverages from all over the world. Highly suggested for weekend lunch or brunch. There's plenty of tables between the food stands and near the water to sit and eat. Make sure to try Nutella crepes from Crepes A La Cart.

Fun, funky place with plenty of gluten free, dairy free and vegan food options from around the world. Not many creative spaces like this one left in Copenhagen. It's open all year around, in the off-season at least on the weekends. So don't let the cold keep you away! Favorite places so far in order : 1. bao bao (African), 2.Satay (Malaysian - contains a little soy sauce, so careful if you are very gluten sensitive), 3. Homemade tacos!!, 4. Street Polenta (Italian). Don't forget to grab a gluten free beer from Mikkeller!

What a cool concept! A food truck village made from shipping containers! This was our first time here so we didn't have the comparison of the old location that many reviewers talk about. Incredible selection! Would definitely go back!

This place is so cool, it's right next to Mikkeller Baghaven which has great beers to eat whatever street vender strikes your fancy. Really fun vibe with 20+ food options. I got an African curry that was amazing and my wife got a while grilled mackeral! Such a pleasant surprise and find (we came for the brewery)

A collection of around 50 different food trucks and containers offering a variety of food on a former wharf/container village. We sampled several meals which were all decent. There is a large selection of choices including Malaysian, Mexican, Peruvian, Danish/European and American. Be aware, all sales are card only and the menu prices displayed do not include the mandatory 3% card surcharge. I think it would be more transparent to add the 3% onto all menus, since this surcharge is unavoidable and paying with cash is not possible.

Not to be missed. Great food choices from around the world. Plenty of small bars, and seating to rest weary feet.

So fun! We rode bikes to Reffen, stopped for sour beers at Mikkler and then had the best Gyro I have ever had!
