Mad & Kaffe
68 Sønder Blvd.Lunch, coffee, hang-out
Formerly a church, Absalon is the local hang-out for food, coffee, board games, table tennis or loads of events throughout the month. It's a must, I'd say.
You have to get there 17-18 ti get a ticket for the daily evening menu. Great food at long tables for just 50,-

Vesterbro's best pizza place just around the corner. Only take-away, but during summer-ish it's a perfect hangout out front, combined with a beer from KIHOSKH.

Drinks & Nightlife
Famously known for a wide range of stuff, the Meat Packing District is still a popular hangout for food and drinks throughout the day and long into the night. All sorts of places in different style and price ranges. Try for example Hija de Sanchez if you're into tacos for lunch.

Everything Else
KIHOSKH basically sells everything. The only thing that ties it together is quality.
Get coffee, beer, magazines, books or just some milk for your morning coffee. They have a little bit of all good stuff.
All bread and pastries are from Brød bakery down the street.
(if you're into good beer, make sure to visit their basement)
