A stone’s-throw away from Nørreport Station stands Torvehallerne KBH, Copenhagen’s most popular food market. With more than 60 stands serving delicacies from all over the world, no wonder this glass market is usually packed with locals and tourists. Some food stalls sell products while others offer cooked meals, coffee and fresh beverages inspired by Danish and international cuisines. Prices are a bit steep but, even if you don’t buy something, it’s worth taking a stroll around the numerous stands.
