Bootleggers Islands Brygge København

Over in Copenhagen for a week, excellent little bar, wide variety of drinks on tap, excellent food from Fattys. I am from England so for me prices are high for me, but lhappy hour is better 🤣

Cozy and raw. Large selection of drinks. Unfortunately, the acoustics are quite bad.

Only real ale and craft beer place in town that did not do flights shame on them

Super nice beer selection and you can bring your dog with you!! 🙂

A Copenhagen pub with a variety of draft beers? Free popcorn and a Hanburger, cheeseburger, and fries. The fries are good, but the Hanburger is a bit saltier than the cheeseburger. I don't remember the time, but we got there early and got a discount on three beers, and the beers are delicious. I highly recommend going at least once.

Bootleggers hits you first with a kind of rugged, relaxed charm. The décor leans industrial—exposed brick, dim lighting, metal and wood—with just enough warmth that you feel welcome rather than overwhelmed. It’s split over multiple levels, which gives it different vibes. There’s outside seating too, with heaters in the winter and umbrellas in the summer. Their beer selection is substantial and diverse: local Copenhagen/Denmark brews, European imports, a range from pilsners to IPAs to stouts. If you’re into craft beer, there’s plenty on tap.  While Bootleggers is first and foremost a beer bar, they do serve food burgers and fries and the links. It’s easily the best burger I’ve had outside of the US, which is really saying something. If you’re hungry for something lighter or more elaborate, though, Bootleggers isn’t the place you go for fine dining. It’s more about satisfying comfort food to go with your drink. Craft beer tends to come at a premium, and Bootleggers is no exception. It’s not the cheapest bar in Copenhagen, by any means. However the drink quality, ambience, and variety justify the cost; especially since part of what you’re also paying for is the vibe, atmosphere, and experience.  If you’re a beer lover or just someone who appreciates a casual, well designed bar where you can linger, chat, try different beers, or meet with friends, Bootleggers Islands Brygge is absolutely worth a stop. It may not be perfect for a quiet date night or for gourmet food, but for its intended style of craft beers, good burgers, relaxed social energy it succeeds handily. If I were you, I’d go in the early evening on a weekday, grab a seat outside (weather permitting), try a couple of local beers, maybe a burger, and soak up the space. Highly recommend.

Cool, chill bar. Calm atmosphere. Some sport event was in the background but still we can talk easily. Great, varied (i.e IPA, lager, wheat etc) selection of draught beers (and even a cider) from all over the world. Highly recommended for a fun, relaxed night out with friends. Note that Fatty's co-located (at least when I visited 08/2025) and you can get a tasty burger and fries, or really good friends chicken sandwich.

good place.. liked the vibe. The burger is yummy

Perfect beer spot neatly tucked away! Looks dingy from the outside but it’s pretty cool inside.. Good selection of beers.. my favourite was the Cherry Beer on tap!

Sizeable bar. Good service. Good selection of drinks. Went back a few times
