Local tips

  • Arrive early on weekends if you prefer grabbing a table—the bar is small and seats fill up quickly.
  • Don’t miss the billiards table in the back; it’s a local favorite and a great way to spark conversation.
  • Cashless payments are widely accepted, but having some coins on hand for the jukebox is a good idea.
  • The bar typically gets busier after 9 p.m., but weekday evenings offer a more laidback vibe.

Discover more about Floss Bar

Tucked within the bustling lanes of the Latin Quarter, Floss Bar is an enduring staple of Copenhagen’s nightlife and LGBTQ+ scene. Founded in the early 1990s and operating from a cozy basement at Larsbjørnsstræde 10, this legendary watering hole is steeped in stories, camaraderie, and an endless parade of eclectic patrons. Stepping inside, you’re greeted by flickering tealights, old-school décor, vintage posters, and rainbow flags—a fitting backdrop for the lively conversations and easy laughter that fill the air each night. A true melting pot, Floss draws a welcoming mix of regulars, newcomers, and adventurous tourists. It’s the kind of place where strangers quickly become friends, united over affordable beers, well-poured drinks, and the gentle clack of billiard balls from the backroom table. The low prices and relaxed door policy have made Floss a favorite haunt for students, artists, and the city’s LGBTQ+ community, but all are genuinely embraced here, regardless of background or identity. Expect a steady pulse of classic pop and Danish hits on the speakers and perhaps the spontaneous sing-along if the evening carries. Unlike Copenhagen’s flashier nightclubs, Floss encourages conversation and connection, thriving on intimacy rather than spectacle. There’s no dress code, and the minimal, slightly retro furnishings make it feel more like a friend’s home than a trendy venue. The bar’s late hours, running until 2 a.m. daily, mean it morphs from a pre-dinner gathering spot to an after-hours refuge. It’s unpretentious, with a loyal sense of community and a history as colorful as its neon sign—the kind of authentic Copenhagen experience that can’t be manufactured, only found. For those seeking a slice of local culture that’s proudly inclusive, with atmosphere to spare and prices that won’t break the bank, Floss Bar is hard to beat.
