Local tips
- Start with a flight of small tasters to explore different styles before committing to a full glass; staff can help build a line-up based on what you usually enjoy.
- Aim for happy hour on selected afternoons for discounted pints on chosen taps, a good opportunity to try stronger or rarer beers at a better price.
- Eat a proper meal beforehand or plan nearby dining, as food at Taphouse is limited to bar snacks rather than full dishes.
- If you are sensitive to crowds, visit shortly after opening in the afternoon or on early weeknights when the bar is usually calmer.
- Check the tap list on arrival and note interesting beers early; kegs rotate and popular choices can run out during the evening.

Discover more about Taphouse
A craft beer playground in the heart of the city
Taphouse sits on Lavendelstræde, a side street just off Copenhagen’s historic core, yet it feels like a world dedicated entirely to beer. Inside, the first impression is the sheer length of the bar and the wall of taps behind it: 61 lines pouring everything from crisp lagers to dense imperial stouts. The atmosphere is casual and unpretentious, more like a modern beer hall than a traditional pub, with a hum of conversation rather than blaring screens. The owners built Taphouse around one idea: variety. At any given time, the board lists beers from numerous countries and dozens of breweries, with special attention to Danish and European microbreweries. You quickly sense that this is a place to explore styles, compare flavours and broaden your palate rather than order the same beer every visit.Ever-changing tap list and tasting culture
The tap list at Taphouse is in constant motion. Kegs rotate as they empty, so a visit in spring will look different from one in autumn. Styles span pale ales, IPAs, dark lagers, sours, wheat beers, Belgian classics, rich porters and experimental brews. A digital or blackboard-style menu spells out brewery, origin, style, strength and price, making it easy to navigate. One of the most distinctive features is the emphasis on tastings. Almost every beer is available in small taster pours, allowing you to build your own flight across countries or styles. This encourages a slow, curious way of drinking: comparing notes, discovering subtle differences in hops or malt, and perhaps venturing into a style you have never tried before, all without committing to a full glass.Design, layout and atmosphere
The interior design leans toward clean, modern Scandinavian lines: simple wooden tables, sturdy benches, and warm, indirect lighting that keeps the focus on the beer and the company. There are high tables near the bar for those who like to chat with staff and watch the taps in action, and more intimate corners further in for small groups. A staircase leads down to a lower level, adding extra seating and a slightly more secluded feel. Despite the large capacity, it retains a cosy character; the absence of televisions and loud music keeps the space oriented toward conversation. It works as well for couples sampling rare beers as for groups gathering before a night out.Light snacks and alternatives to beer
While beer is the star, Taphouse offers a small selection of snacks designed to complement the drinks. You can expect items like nuts, chips and simple cheese or sausage platters that pair well with a flight of stronger brews. There is no full kitchen, so this is more a place to nibble than to sit down for a meal. Non-beer drinkers are not forgotten. There are usually ciders, soft drinks, tea and coffee, plus some bottled gluten-free and alcohol-free beers. A modest range of spirits and wine ensures that mixed groups can all find something suitable, even if only a few are deep into hop profiles and malt notes.Practical details and visiting patterns
Taphouse keeps generous opening hours, typically from mid-afternoon until late at night on weekdays, and from midday on Fridays, weekends and Sundays. Happy hour windows on selected days offer discounts on certain taps, which is a good moment to sample more adventurous or stronger styles. The bar often becomes busier in the evening, particularly on Friday and Saturday, when the room fills with both locals and visitors. The location in Copenhagen’s centre makes it easy to weave a visit into a day of sightseeing or an evening food tour. The combination of an enormous tap list, a relaxed setting and knowledgeable staff means you can drop by for a single quick glass or settle in for several hours of discovery. For beer-focused travellers, it can easily become an anchor stop in the city.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
