Rist Kaffebar

Great little coffee shop on Værnedamsvej surrounded by a lot of nice stores and restaurants (Playtype, Granola, etc.).
If you’re in the area and are looking for a cosy little spot to have a café latte or meet a friend I can recommend Rist. The coffee selection is what you’d expect — espresso and coffee drinks — and there are some nice pastries to choose from as well. The prices are higher than some other coffee shops (mid 30-​kr for a espresso drink), but the quality is nice and it’s a great café atmosphere. Complimentary water is offered, which is always a plus!
The café itself is a little small though and can be hard to find a seat during the busier hours or the weekend. Since it’s small it also can get a little loud inside, so I don’t think it’s the ideal coffee shop to bring work on a computer or read a book.
Overall, great café and I’ll definitely be back!

Very nice coffee and cakes but awful service. The guest also tend to stay for awhile and there are few seats so do not expect people to move for you. The décor is nice and so is the location!

Rist is a cozy, hyggelit café on popular Værnedamsvej. Delicious cappuccinos expertly executed in a cool space.

What a cute place! Exactly the kind of coffee bar you expect in Copenhagen — not too modern, but very well-​designed with lots of natural materials and a warm atmosphere. There’s cute corners to sit, the wifi works perfectly fast and it smelled so extremely good in here.
Because yep: they have baked goods, too!
They’re not home made, but delivered from some local French bakery and it all looked amazing. Cookies, granola bars, sweet breads… No complete lunch or so, but perfectly fine to start a day or simply continue it. I went for this typical Danish thing called thebirke, which is a sort of croissant filled with some vanilla kind of something and lots of poppy seeds on top. Nam! I’d easily start the day again at Rist, if I sometime can.

So, I just didn’t like this place. I came here because it was the only café on its street that was open around 8:30 a.m., and had both a bathroom and wifi.
The bearded guy behind the counter greeted me — oh, did I say «greeted»? I meant ignored me as I tried to speak to him but he eventually decided to look up with an expression reserved for people who rudely awake you in the middle of the night.
I had an herbal tea, which was good, and a croissant, which wasn’t impressive.
The place is small and their tiny hipster tables and stools were annoying and uncomfortable. Then again, nothing in here felt welcoming so it fit perfectly!

During my stay in Copenhagen, I discovered this cute little coffee place! Great coffee & lovely matcha latte. I will definitly be back when in Copenhagen!

Cosy little café. It is located in the cosy street, Værndamsvej. They serve small light dishes like boiled eggs with rye bread, you hurt with musli and avocado on rye bread, which is a good vegetarian alternative.
The coffee is really good! They use the coffee beans from the Coffee Collective, which I like to support as they do Direct Trading with the framers.
I have been coming here since they opened as it is convenient as it is close to my work and it is much quieter than other cafes on the same street, so a lovely place to get your morning coffee and chill out. The ambiance is very relaxed and thy play chilled jazz in the mornings.
The service not that great, I would say almost average. I don’t get a great feeling when I am served, they do smile sometimes though. It not very special and sometimes not that professional, so do not expect much. I think that if they rethink their service even more they would have people leaving with a great feeling, which is important for me least. But other than that, enjoy you coffee guys. Check it out if you need a little cosy café with a great cup of coffee.
