Meyers Deli

A decent place to grab a quick bite. Food quality good if not great. I like the flæskestegssandwich, have been getting it for years. It does have too much mustard/​mayo in it for my liking, but that may be a matter of taste. DO NOT get the coffees, at least when I went this weekend they were awful. The drip coffee was undrinkable (at 2pm on a busy Saturday afternoon — I shudder to think how bad it might be on a slower day when the coffee gets to steep for longer!) and the latte was way below average — at an above average price! Just poor. But if you’re in town and looking for a good meal at a reasonable price, this is a good option in an area poor on those.

My favorite breads ever are at Meyers Bageri period. This location is in the basement of Magasin, literally a half escalator’s ride from the Kongens Nytorv stop on the metro. Super convenient. Claus Meyer, owner proprietor of MB is co-​founder of Noma. Here, you get to sample a bread master’s work: he provides modern Danish pastries, THE uniquely crunchy (outside)/soft (inside) breads, and rolls from seeded, multi grain to plain. This location is also a deli so, you can have sandwiches too! I haven’t tried the burgers yet but I will someday. I’ve never tired of the breads here. I crave them to this day months after leaving Copenhagen. The breads are beautifully baked, the colors of the crust go more in hues of dark brown to grey, burnt in some places, so stunning looking, you can’t help but think that baking traditions rooted in ancient Scandinavian bread making practices is what makes these products so incredibly delicious and desirable. The result – unique crispness of the crust and texture. And the dough inside has a chew to it and there’s little air pockets as opposed to large holes in breads that are popular these days. I LOVE this bread. No breads I’ve had in the U.S. and many bakeries I’ve tried in France, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Holland compare to the bread here… It’s no wonder there’s a line almost every day I’ve visited. And let me not get started with the butter. I love Danish butter and bread here. I’d put a ¾″ thick slice of butter (yep, the thicker the more profound the flavor) with the bread here; you close your eyes, and savor the crust and dough melding with the thick slice of butter. Genius. This experience cannot be duplicated anywhere else.
The Danish pastries here are 2die4, I’ve had them everyday of my visit, I LOVE them ALL. Get to any of Meyers 5 – 6 locations all over Copenhagen as soon as you arrive. I swear to you you will fall deeply head over heels in love.
Visits: Daily but couldn’t check-​in, hardly any signal in the basement
Tip: They give you a piece of sourdough starter, FREE, if you wanna try your art. Claus Meyer has restaurants also.

I came here on a recommendation from a friend.
It took us a while to find, but it’s actually in the basement of the Magasin department store.
I ended up ordering a chicken sandwich with bacon which was pretty good and the portions were large, but the prices were too damn expensive. It was about 140 krone for a sandwich which is roughly $ 25 USD. For a sandwich?
The sandwich was good, but not for the price point. I wouldn’t recommend if you’re staying in Copenhagen on a budget.

Stay away from the burger. It looks great but tastes like vinegar. And potatoes where only half cooked. Only thing that seemed up to Meyer standard where the Apple juice.

So I’m making my «Best Burgers in Copenhagen» list and while I’m compiling my reviews I start salivating thinking about the burger I had one cold winter day last December at Meyers Deli in the basement of Magasin. And I realize I never wrote a review for it on Unilocal!What was I thinking?!
So I go find the page, and I see 2.5 very sad stars. TWO AND A HALF STARS!!!
You guys I am SHOCKED and APPALLED at the reviews on here. What gives?
I refuse to believe I came here on an off day when everything was perfect, so I stand by my recommendation to all looking for a delicious burger that you absolutely must try theirs. They make their own ketchup and mayo using vinegar from their own little happy island. And the meat is organic (and probably grassfed, TBC). Yeah, I know you’re eating in the basement of a department store, so not exactly the hyg’ligste (yes I know that’s not really a word) place on earth, but a good lunch/​dinner option if you’re going to hit up the Christmas markets on Nyhavn in December (paired with some of their super sweet apple gløgg), or take your visiting friends for a canal cruise or something.
Pro-​tip: eat the burger AFTER you try on all the clothes you want to buy upstairs. ;)

The newer of Claus Meyer’s growing empire in Copenhagen, he has a combo bakery deli here in Magasin du Nord. Having some time to kill before leaving town and trying to get a break from the marathon, carnaval and Gumballl 3000, i ducked in. Got a rhubard juice and cherry tart. The bakery makes some of the best baked goods in he city. This locale however is a bit crazy because of being in this mall. However if youre in the city center it’s the closest outlet and worth checking out.
