Local tips

  • Aim for a late-morning visit if you want a relaxed brunch experience before the lunchtime and evening crowds arrive.
  • On mild days, ask about seating in the courtyard, which offers a more sheltered and intimate alternative to street-side tables.
  • If you prefer a quieter vibe, choose a weekday evening; Friday and Saturday nights can be significantly livelier and more bar-focused.
  • Vegetarians and some vegans can usually find suitable options, but it is worth asking staff about current meat-free and dairy-free dishes.
  • The café doubles as a bar with a selection of beers; consider pairing a burger or sandwich with a draft beer for the full pub-café experience.

An Irish-tinged hangout in the middle of old Køge

Cafe O'Flanagans sits on Nørregade, one of Køge’s central streets, and feels like a cross between a Danish café and a classic Irish pub. Step inside and you are met with warm woods, bar stools, and small tables that encourage lingering over a drink or a long lunch. The atmosphere is informal and social, the sort of place where people meet for a midweek coffee or gather before a night out in town. Being in the compact historic core, the café is surrounded by cobbled streets, traditional houses and small independent shops. Large windows at the front pull in daylight and give you a view of local life drifting past, while the interior lighting becomes softer and more intimate as the day rolls into evening. It works equally well as a quick pit stop while exploring Køge or as a base for a slower, more leisurely meal.

From brunch plates to burgers and bar snacks

The menu reflects its dual role as café and bar. Earlier in the day you will find filling brunch plates with bread, eggs, yoghurt, fruit and sweet touches like pancakes, alongside simpler options such as sandwiches and lighter café dishes. As lunchtime and evening approach, burgers, salads and hearty plates take over, with classic comfort-food flavours designed to go well with a beer. Vegetarian and sometimes vegan options feature in the line-up, usually in the form of meat-free burgers or sandwiches and plentiful sides. Portions tend to be generous, with an emphasis on casual, satisfying café cooking rather than fine dining. Coffee, soft drinks and juices are available throughout the day, while the bar list adds draft and bottled beers – including international labels – plus long drinks for those settling in for the night.

Courtyard corners and indoor cosiness

One of the café’s most pleasant surprises is its enclosed courtyard. Tucked away from the street, this outdoor space offers a more sheltered, intimate feel than typical pavement seating. When the weather is kind, it becomes a relaxed spot for late breakfasts, afternoon coffees or lingering evening drinks under open sky. Inside, the layout mixes smaller tables for couples or solo visitors with larger arrangements that work well for groups of friends. The décor leans towards pub-style comfort rather than minimalism: expect dark tones, framed details and a lived-in feel that suits long conversations. It is casual enough for families during the day, yet has enough bar character to appeal to adults later on.

Day-to-night rhythm and late weekend hours

Cafe O'Flanagans opens from late morning and usually stays open until around 22:00 on weekdays, with significantly later closing times on Fridays and Saturdays. As a result, the energy of the place shifts over the course of the day. Mornings can feel calm, with space to read or plan your day in Køge over coffee, while lunchtimes can be busier as people drop in from nearby shops and offices. On weekend nights the bar side becomes more prominent, with music a little louder and groups gathering over drinks until the early hours. Even then, it keeps the feel of a neighbourhood spot rather than a full-on nightclub, making it approachable if you prefer a lively yet still relaxed setting.

Part of Køge’s everyday social life

Because it combines food, coffee and drinks, Cafe O'Flanagans slots easily into many different types of visit: a refuelling stop during sightseeing, an afternoon break with cake, or the main venue for a casual dinner and a few pints. Its central location means you are always close to Køge’s main square and harbour area, so it works well as a meeting point before or after exploring the town. For travellers, it offers a straightforward way to tap into local life without any formality. You can bring kids during the day for a laid-back meal, call in solo with a book, or meet friends for beers and a burger. The combination of Irish-pub warmth, Danish café culture and late weekend hours makes it a flexible and familiar-feeling spot in this small coastal town.
