This combined cafeteria, bar, and venue in an old carrier hall is one of the best places to go for a cheap but delicious breakfast, a glass of wine with a friend, an organic cup of coffee, or a light lunch or bigger dinner. The service is casual and friendly, and the dishes are creative and inexpensive despite their outstanding quality. After dinner the place becomes a popular bar.
An Italophile Danish couple have created a small empire of Italian restaurants and bars in the neighborhood of Vesterbro, and Mangia is the best, drawing a stylish crowd with its festive atmosphere and classic Italian cooking. If the restaurant is fully booked—it often is—try to get a table at one of the team's other nearby restaurants: Tuscan-inspired Circolo or the festive Bar La Una.
If the stunning decor in this light-filled restaurant with great views of Vesterbrogade doesn't transport you to the Mediterranean, the food surely will. Grilled Halloumi and seafood, sumptuous hummus, watermelon-and-feta salads, and a sorbet made from Greek yogurt with olive oil and sea salt are some of the highlights on the menu, which is served family style at night.
