We stopped by Hart Bageri in Frederiksberg when I was really craving a pastry break; the bakery is small, busy and full of that warm, comforting smell that makes you instantly hungry. The staff were smiley and friendly which was nice.
We ordered a cardamom croissant and a tebirkes and both were absolutely delicious; perfectly flaky, buttery and full of flavour. They paired beautifully with a black pour-over coffee.
Hart Bageri has been around since 2018 and was founded by British baker Richard Hart. He previously worked at Tartine in San Francisco and eventually moved to Copenhagen, supported by René Redzepi from Noma; the whole concept feels like a beautiful meeting point between Danish baking traditions and modern artisan craft. The philosophy is simple: quality ingredients, slow methods, and pastries and bread that speak for themselves.
The bakery opens daily at 7:30 am and closes around 6:00 pm. Aside from pastries, they also sell incredible sourdough loaves (which often sell out early), seasonal pastries, sweet treats, occasional savoury offerings and a few packaged goods like cookies or spreads you can take home.
If we hadn’t already eaten lunch I definitely would have tried more :) Everything in the cabinet looked tempting! The Frederiksberg area is also great for shopping, so stopping here for coffee and pastries is the perfect way to break up the day.
I would absolutely recommend visiting Hart Bageri if you're in Copenhagen; it’s cosy, delicious and has that warm neighbourhood feel.
