The hidden (and not so hidden) healthy hotspots in Copenhagen
We shot the photos for the Your 50 Days winter book in Copenhagen! Why all the way in Denmark? Because we were going for a winter look with a Scandinavian touch. And being together in a new inspiring place for one purpose works really well too. Anyway, you’ll see the result in the book, so judge for yourself…
When we were there at the end of September, it was beautiful summer weather (no idea why we thought it would already be winter there?). So we weren’t exactly shivering by the fireplace, the sweat broke out under those thick sweaters… So hereby: late September, early October is still a perfect time for a trip to Copenhagen!
I think every time of year is suitable for this city trip because it’s so much fun there! Handsome, well-dressed people, beautiful shops, and lots of green, healthy spots. Think: green juices on every street corner and even a completely vegan and gluten-free bakery! We couldn’t leave the country without spending a day in the city to list the nicest healthy hotspots for you! Here they come:
* A nice bonus: almost all spots are near each other.

Apparently, queues often snake out the door here, and we understand why! From full meals, Açaí and smoothie bowls to smoothies and delicious sweets. This hotspot shouldn’t be missed.
Address: Pilestraede 32, Copenhagen
Joe & The Juice
Already at the airport, this juice bar smiles at you. Is it the combination of coffee with healthy juices that makes it so popular…? In Copenhagen alone, there are 69 locations! Whatever it is: the juices have surprising combinations and they are delicious!
Address: Bremerholm 2, Copenhagen
Naturbageriet
Vegan bakery with a lot of gluten-free! Oh my! Did someone say cinnamon rolls? Believe us: don’t leave the city without getting some good snacks here!
