Finding Lidkoeb means crossing a courtyard behind a supermarket, through an unmarked alley, which is either annoying or half the point. The cocktail bar from the team behind Ruby spreads across three floors of a low-lit 18th-century building, all candles and dark wood and a long bar with a fourteen-strong house cocktail list. The kind of place that rewards the people willing to look for it.

The buzzer panel at the entrance includes one for the Embassy of Georgia, which you are advised not to press. Inside, this cocktail bar spreads across two floors of candlelit rooms with rugs, Chesterfield sofas, and enough tucked-away corners to disappear into for an entire evening. The vibe is old living room, the cocktails are the reason you came, and table service means you never have to leave your corner to prove it.

A marble-topped bar wraps around the back of this sunken cocktail bar in central Copenhagen, with cozy corners and secluded booths for when you want to disappear. The room runs warm and loud, more lively conversation than hushed reverence, which is a refreshing stance for a bar that takes its drinks seriously. Difford's Guide gives it five stars, and the unpretentious atmosphere makes that easy to believe.

The bar at Salon 39 occupies the lower level, and it is genuinely small, the kind of place where snagging a seat feels like a minor victory. By night it fills fast, and large groups get turned away so the lucky ones who squeeze in can actually enjoy themselves. Café by day, bar and restaurant by evening, it pulls a crowd that keeps coming back, which tells you something about how the drinks land.

A steep climb to the door opens into a wine bar that keeps things pleasantly simple: chequerboard floors, an old leather sofa, candles on bare wooden tables, and about 30 wines chalked up behind the counter. The kind of place where the list changes and nobody pretends otherwise. Snacks arrive without ceremony. The second room, warmer and a little looser, is where the evening tends to drift.

Semi-subterranean and narrow, Zefside fills fast once the weekend hits, with Edison bulbs strung above a long bar and a DJ doing their best to turn a bar into a club without technically being one. The name means nothing in Danish and is somehow pronounced "Southside," which tells you something about the vibe. Thirty-something professionals pack in, drink in hand, doing that polite standing-shuffle that passes for dancing when the ceiling is low.
