Came here as I had it planned since last year. This is a family owned business with great service and homemade food and dessert. It was a 10 minutes bike ride from the city centre and absolutely worth it. I wish Isam and the whole family all the best. The Vegan Jelly sweets were enjoyed for eid, what a perfect time.

I have passed by several times and always wanted to go in as the place looks so cosy and nice. Like the perfect neighbourhood cafe... lots of small neat touches to make it welcoming. I finally made it in for breakfast and I was not disappointed. The oat porridge was solid and tasty and well priced. I definitely want to come back.

Very quiet morning and cozy to be here. Very cheerful & friendly staff. Cha latte is wonderful, brownie also a rich one feel home made (must try) Americano is not very good as not warm enough. Place is clean and recommend you come here if you wish to enjoy cozy time

Highly underrated cafe! Amazing atmosphere with loads of cultural decorations, and outstanding service. The café's owner makes you feel part of the family, warm beverages are great, of high quality and not nearly as overpriced as in most other cafes in copenhagen. Food seems homemade but I haven't tried anything yet, so I left it out in my rating. Will definitely come back!
