"Barrier-free" Street Food Restaurants in Copenhagen

Born out of a pop-up concept at Noma, this now fully fledged restaurant and burger spot sits by the canals in Christianshavn. Dine in at the main location for an extended menu, or head to the takeaway-only entrance on the side of the building for burgers from the same kitchen to go.

Opened by former Noma chef Rosio Sanchez in 2015 at Torvehallerne, this taqueria has expanded to multiple locations across Copenhagen due to its appreciation. The kitchen of Hija de Sanchez focuses on freshly made tacos served daily, with a straightforward, vibrant Mexican-inspired style.

Ramen to Biiru brings Japanese ramen culture to Copenhagen, created by the team behind Mikkeller. Since its launch, its ramen bowls have become staples on the scene, and the concept has expanded to multiple locations across the city, always featuring a limited-time special ramen on the menu.

Japanese chef-owner Kaoru Fujisawa has run this little sushi-ya since 2001, where he prepares uncompromising sushi and donburi behind a modest front. Specials include sea urchin, snow crab, scallop, and salmon roe, and the sake is chosen as carefully as the seafood. Counter seats and takeaway.

Opened in 2016 by chef Rasmus Oubæk and Christian Brandt, Jagger set out to challenge international fast-food burger chains with a focus on quality. Still a popular burger spot today, it serves freshly ground beef burgers and has expanded to multiple locations across Copenhagen and Norway.

Northern Europe’s first proper taquería opened in Stockholm in 2009 and expanded to Copenhagen in 2017 in collaboration with the Mikkeller brewery. Faithful to its name (Mexican slang for “the truth”), it serves street food like tacos al pastor with spit-roasted pork, as well as hearty quesadillas.

Rørt is a street-food take on smørrebrød, with creative seasonal combinations and Danish classics, made with organic products from local producers they work with. Available for both sit-in and takeaway, you can order individually or go for a bundle if you’re hungry.

Pita and durum flatbread are baked in-house at this award-winning Turkish kitchen, then filled with kebab, chicken, or falafel. While the kebab remains the signature, the Ottoman-era Hünkar Beğendi with lamb on eggplant is a tip for curious eaters. All is served in a large space near Nørrebroparken.

Located in the Torvehallerne market, Ma Poule serves French delicacies, including a permanent duck confit sandwich with mustard — a visit worth making on its own. Enjoy it on-site and pick up cheese, charcuterie, wine, and other French gourmet products to take home.

This sushi bar has four locations, one of which is in Ballerup, a western suburb of Copenhagen. Guests come for the all-you-can-eat format where food is ordered via tablet. In an effort to reduce waste, they are asked to choose what they can finish. Individual dishes are available for takeaway.

Across the street from the Museum of Illusions, this Asian counter offers a very real stop for wok dishes with rice or noodles, ramen-style soups, and crispy snacks. The menu spans cuisines from Japan, Thailand, China, and Vietnam, and a mix-and-match option lets guests create their own box.
