The best ice cream in Copenhagen is Istid in Nørrebro. Small-batch, seasonal ice cream that changes weekly.

Small-batch, seasonal ice cream that changes weekly. The brown butter and sea salt is transcendent.
Organic gelato with Nordic ingredients. Liquorice, sea buckthorn, and cardamom flavours you won't find anywhere else.
Waffles and ice cream on Strøget. Simple concept, perfect execution. The waffle cones are made fresh.
Authentic Sicilian gelato made by actual Sicilians. The pistachio is worth the trip alone.
