A micro-roastery and espresso bar on Høkerboderne in the Latin Quarter, occupying a former butcher shop with original white tiles and meat hooks now repurposed as coat hangers. Owner-roaster Lasse Steffensen works with a tiny 1kg Probat roaster visible behind the bar, creating small-batch experimental roasts and serving meticulously prepared espresso drinks. The space holds maybe 12 people, creating an intimate atmosphere where serious coffee conversations happen naturally.
Skip the menu and ask Lasse what he's currently excited about on the roaster; he often has experimental micro-lots not listed on the board.
Plan for about 30 minutes. Morning visits are typically less crowded.
