Café Castro
Large cafe, with a huge outdoor serving area on a square for warm days. The indoor palm trees does its best to provide a tiny bit of Cuban vibe to the place.

A bit far away from anything else, this is a good cocktail bar in unlikely surroundings. For Copenhagen the coctails here are reasonbly priced, and the servings are quite big.
Saxons

Pussy Galore's Flying Circus
