Why we recommend it
Andersen & Maillard is a Copenhagen coffee roastery and bakery with three locations: a coffee shop and roastery on Nørrebrogade, an artisan bakery in Nordhavn and a coffee shop and bakery on Ny Østergade in the city centre. The name points to its two passions, coffee and baking, and the company says it starts its day at 3 in the morning to make sure each customer's day begins with the perfect coffee and croissant.
The Nørrebrogade shop, where the roastery is based, is the original and the best place to experience both sides of the business. Coffee is roasted on site, and the pastry counter is stocked with croissants and other baked goods from the company's own bakery. It is a natural breakfast stop, and many visitors come for a coffee and croissant before exploring Nørrebro's streets and cafés.
The shop suits coffee lovers, pastry fans and anyone staying in Nørrebro or passing through on the way to the neighbourhood's markets and bars. It is a café rather than a restaurant, so think of it for breakfast, a mid-morning break or an afternoon coffee rather than a full meal. Weekends are busy with locals, and the best choice of pastries is in the morning.
The Nørrebrogade shop is open Monday to Friday from 7:00 to 18:00, and at weekends and on holidays from 8:00 to 18:00. The Ny Østergade branch in the city centre keeps the same hours, while the Nordhavn bakery is open every day from 7:00 to 18:00. The company also supplies other businesses through its wholesale arm.
Nørrebrogade is the main street of Nørrebro, running north-west from the Lakes and Dronning Louises Bro. The shop is a short walk or bike ride from Nørreport, and it is within easy reach of Sankt Hans Torv, Elmegade and Jægersborggade. If you are based in the centre, the Ny Østergade branch, close to Kongens Nytorv and Strøget, offers the same coffee and pastries with less travel.
If you are visiting several of the city's specialty coffee shops, Andersen & Maillard makes a good comparison with Coffee Collective, as both roast their own coffee and have shops within a short bike ride of each other in Nørrebro.
