Waterfront shopping on the former fish market

Fisketorvet – Copenhagen Mall anchors the Kalvebod Brygge waterfront, a sweeping glass-and-steel complex where the city’s old fish market once buzzed with early-morning auctions. Today the smell of the sea has been replaced by the aroma of coffee and fresh-baked pastries, but the name and subtle maritime motifs still nod to its legacy. Opened in 2000 and later integrated into the Westfield family, the centre stretches along the harbour with large windows that draw in light and frame views of the water and passing cyclists. Inside, broad walkways, high ceilings and generous atriums create a bright, contemporary feel that’s easy to navigate once you find your bearings. The design favours clean lines and modern Scandinavian restraint, with occasional splashes of colour and playful details, especially around family zones and seasonal decorations.

Big-brand fashion, everyday essentials and more

With a floor area of around 58,000 square metres and more than 120 shops, Fisketorvet is one of Denmark’s largest malls and an efficient one-stop destination for both browsing and practical errands. International fashion names sit alongside Scandinavian chains, covering everything from casual basics to sharper business wear. Shoe stores, sports outfitters and streetwear labels fill the gaps, while accessory and jewellery boutiques add a touch of sparkle. Everyday needs are well covered, with large supermarkets, homeware and electronics stores, pharmacies and toy shops distributed over several levels. It is the kind of place where you can pick up groceries, replace a suitcase, buy a raincoat and still have time to choose a birthday gift, all under one roof and protected from the elements.

Dining corners and cinema nights

Food is woven throughout the mall, from quick-grab bakeries and coffee bars to international fast food and sit-down restaurants. Several eateries enjoy glimpses of the harbour or spill towards the promenade, making them appealing spots for a casual lunch, post-shopping drink or early dinner before a film. The on-site multiplex cinema is one of the mall’s defining features. With numerous screens, including one of Scandinavia’s largest, it turns Fisketorvet into an evening destination as well as a daytime shopping hub. Blockbusters, family favourites and occasional special screenings make it popular with both locals and visitors looking to round off a day in the city with a movie in comfortable, modern surroundings.

Harbourfront walks and urban energy

Step outside and the character of Fisketorvet shifts from enclosed mall to open waterfront. Boardwalk-style paths trace the edge of the harbour basin, where joggers, commuters and families share the space with moored boats and reflections of nearby architecture. Benches and steps invite you to sit and watch the play of light on the water or observe Copenhagen’s constant flow of cyclists crossing the nearby bridge. This harbourside setting makes Fisketorvet more than an indoor retail box; it acts as a hinge between Vesterbro’s urban grit and the cleaner lines of the redeveloped waterfront. On bright days, people drift between the indoor shops and the outdoor promenade, ice cream or coffee in hand, extending a shopping trip into a small city-side stroll.

Family-friendly features and seasonal buzz

Families are well catered for with children’s clothing and toy shops, wide corridors suitable for strollers and lifts connecting all levels. Playful decorations and occasional mascots add to the sense of a child-friendly environment, and the range of casual dining options means there are plenty of places to refuel small appetites. Across the year, the mall often dresses up for seasonal occasions, from winter lights to summery waterfront vibes. While the focus remains firmly on shopping, dining and entertainment, these touches give returning visitors something new to look at and help the centre feel woven into Copenhagen’s broader cultural calendar.

A practical all-weather hub near the city centre

Thanks to covered access, reliable public transport links and extensive parking, Fisketorvet functions as a practical base whatever the weather. On rainy days it becomes a sheltered playground of errands, browsing and cinema trips; on crisp, clear afternoons it pairs perfectly with a harbour walk or a bike ride along the waterfront. For travellers, its mix of familiar brands, Danish chains and easy food choices offers a comfortable pause in an otherwise exploratory itinerary. Whether you are here to stock up on clothes, catch a film, entertain children or simply enjoy a coffee with a view of the harbour, Fisketorvet delivers a modern, convenient slice of Copenhagen life under one spacious roof.
