The Best Pizza Near a|o|c, by the Record
-
Rank 1. Bæst
Nordic Pizza
Sourdough pizza with a Nordic edge in Nørrebro, where the mozzarella and charcuterie are made in-house and the toppings lean on Danish organic producers. The crust comes out dark and aromatic, the wine list runs to orange bottles and serious labels, and the whole setup has the relaxed confidence of a place that's been setting the tone in Copenhagen for a long time. Informal service, strong bread, and a room full of people who know exactly where they are.
-
A canal-side pizzeria on one of Copenhagen's oldest waterfronts, Pizzeria Luca runs an open kitchen that gives the room the easy hum of an Italian tavern. The dough ferments long enough to give the crust real presence without weighing you down, and the menu moves between Roman classics and more adventurous combinations. Italian wine, good beer, and tiramisu round things out sensibly.
-
Rank 3. Little Brother
Neapolitan Pizza
A Neapolitan pizza spot staffed largely by young Italians, Neapolitans among them, which goes some way toward explaining why the cornicione here rises the way it should. Little Brother is compact and cozy, the kind of room that fills up with chatter fast. The menu runs from faithful classics to a few more inventive combinations, all built on decent ingredients. Listed among 50 Top Pizza Europe's Excellent Pizzerias.
-
A Neapolitan-style pizza restaurant in Copenhagen's Carlsberg neighborhood, where the dough ferments long enough to stay thin and light while somehow holding up whatever goes on top. The mostly Italian staff moves quietly and efficiently, and the marinara has a way of becoming a second order before you've noticed. Ranked in the 50 Top Pizza Europe and World lists, with a Pizza of the Year award for 2026.

Rank 5. MaMeMi
Roman Pizza
Roman-style pizza in the Vesterbro neighborhood, thin-crusted and cooked consistently, with a menu that reads like a tour of the trattoria classics: carbonara, amatriciana, cacio e pepe, all reinterpreted as pizza. It ranks on 50 Top Pizza Europe, for what that's worth to the people who track such things. Outdoor tables appear in summer, service is low-key and responsive, and the appetizers tend to surprise.

A pizza spot in Copenhagen's Nørrebro-adjacent northwest that runs from morning coffee through late dinner, Flere Fugle does something modest and slightly absurd: it leans Nordic on a form that is already Italian, so you end up with red beetroot and goat cheese on your pizza and somehow it makes sense. The room is big and Scandinavian-spare, and the garden out back has a leafy, unhurried quality that the city's summer rewards generously.
