4 late-night dives in Copenhagen, editor-picked by TableJourney. All Copenhagen nightlife.
Eiffel Bar ★ 4.1
christianshavn · Wildersgade 58, 1408 København K
Eiffel Bar on Wildersgade has poured beer to Christianshavn sailors since 1737, with a 1930s Parisian renovation that left mirrored Eiffel Tower motifs, a golden staircase and the kind of jukebox that runs 80s pop.
Tip: Cash easier than card; the back room is quieter than the bar. Locals after midnight, tourists earlier; cheap pours all night.
Bo-bi Bar ★ 4.2
indre-by · Klareboderne 14, 1115 København K
Bo-bi Bar on Klareboderne dates to 1917 and claims the title of Copenhagen's oldest brown bar, with the original counter still in place, red wallpaper unchanged in a century and hard-boiled eggs at the till.
Tip: Cash only; the room is tiny so first round at the counter then find a chair. Boiled eggs and cheap beer is the order.
Andy's Bar ★ 4.0
indre-by · Gothersgade 33B, 1123 København K
Andy's on Gothersgade ran as a postwar American-soldier hangout and has spent the decades since pouring cheap spirits to a young crowd until 06:00, with Jägermeister bottles holding the bar shelves up.
Tip: Open until 06:00 most nights; the room fills after 02:00 when other bars close. Cash plus card, no cover.
Bip Bip Bar ★ 4.2
norrebro · Fælledvej 7, 2200 København N
Bip Bip on Fælledvej runs Nørrebro's pinball-and-arcade dive across two floors, with original 80s cabinets, a free-play house policy on most machines and a cocktail menu that nods to the era.
Tip: Two-floor pinball; the upstairs is quieter on a busy Friday. Walk-in only, no reservations.
