Plantecaféen – a café where you can buy both a cup of coffee and a small cactus
The Plant Café is a small, cosy café at Godsbanen (also see Alberte’s tips about Godsbanen). To say that the people behind the café is excited about plants would be an understatement. The café is full of plants in all shapes, colours and sizes, which gives the place a bit of a jungle vibe. You can enjoy a good cup of coffee here and even buy a small plant to bring home. A week later, when your plant probably is close to dying, you can bring it back to the café’s plant-hospital, where they will nurse it and strengthen its powers. Great, right?

In the matrix – a net café for real lads
This net café is all that a good net café must be. They have lots of super good computers, all the new games and of course tons of boys lined up shouting at the screens. In addition, they have long opening hours, quite cheap prices and they serve a perfectly greasy toast! All in all, a pretty perfect place to hang with the boys.

Dokk1 – a culture institution with great details
The public library and citizen service centre is both to be found at Dokk1, but there are more reasons to visit than this. The building itself is awesome from the outside as well as the inside, and in the basement, you can find a quite impressive underground-robot-car-par! It is also a super inspirational place to work on school/work stuff, and when you need a break, the café is at your service. They also arrange a huge number of events – many of them for free.

Herr Bartels – a bar specialized in excellent value cocktails
This place serves some of the city’s best drinks and cocktails at a reasonable price. All day, every day they serve two identical cocktails for nothing more than 60-90 DKK. Choose between classics as mojito, long islands, dark&stormy, bramble, whiskey sour, daiquiri and a few more. Avoid getting there too late, where the bar is usually overcrowded, and it is difficult to get a table.
