1. Oscar Bar & Café
This is THE most checked into gay bar in Copenhagen and while the free Wi-Fi might be a good reason, there are plenty more. The food is good, the personnel is nice and it’s smoke-free! If it’s nice weather, the cafe will also have outside seating with a glorious view of City Hall. This is the perfect place for brunch, afternoon coffee, dinner and of course, a late night out!

2. Masken Bar & Café
Masken Bar & Café is another local favourite in Copenhagen. It was actually the winner of Denmark’s Best Gay Bar award in 2013. With reasonable prices and a lively atmosphere, this is a safe pick for someone who’s looking for an enjoyable evening or after work. Sometimes it can be a bit crowded but as the saying goes: “Two is company, three’s a crowd, but four is a party!” (Finns det hjärterum finns det stjärterum)

3. Jailhouse Bar
Jailhouse Bar is a themed gay club where the personnel take their job seriously. The warden with his officers makes sure that your time in prison will be very pleasant. If you’re hungry that’s not a problem, there is both a restaurant and a bar. They also host fun gay events including Manic Monday and Chill Out Tuesdays. Make sure to visit their website for the latest updates!

4. Cosy Bar
Cosy Bar is just what you’d expect it to be – real cosy. Cosy and late (or early depending on how you see it) is the two words that come to mind with this bar. They stay open until the guests leave and it’s not unusual if they’re still going strong at 7.30 am in the morning.

> Foursquare ranking: 7.3/10
5. Centralhjørnet
Centralhjørnet is one of Copenhagen’s top ranked gay bars. It’s not too big so it stays nice and warm with friendly bartenders and interesting people. If you’re visiting Copenhagen during the Christmas holidays, make sure to pit stop here, they’re famous for their crazy Christmas decorations!
