28/09/2025: Tucked away at Lavendelstræde; in the heart of Copenhagen, Not Your USUAL Wine Bar lives up to its name with enough surprises, charm, and personality to warrant a lingering evening.  From its cozy interior to its adventurous wine list, this is a spot that rewards curiosity. 
The wine selection is beautifully eclectic: small producers, natural and organic wines, and lesser-known regions such as Hungary, Slovenia, Moldova, and even Denmark find a place here alongside more familiar options.  Glass prices are modest (75-125 DKK depending on class) which makes exploring without commitment easy. wine flight are available, and the owner works along his servers and is delightful, engaging, and extremely knowledgeable in all things wine.
Service is warm, knowledgeable and down to earth. Whether you’re just trying wines by flights or seeking recommendations, staff seem excited to guide without pretension. The food menu is minimalist but well-chosen with tapas or snack-type plates (cheeses & charcuterie) that pair naturally and excellently with the wines. 
Ambience strikes a lovely balance between relaxed and refined. Early evenings feel intimate, while later hours buzz with a friendly, vibrant energy. 
If you enjoy wine and want to try things off the beaten path, without feeling intimidated, this is a gem. Just be sure to arrive with curiosity and appetite for discovery.
Highly recommended, perfect for an easy date night or with friends looking to get into the different wines of Europe.
