Copenhagen Street Food market on the Refshaleøen waterfront. Seasonal (May–October), eclectic, and the best single place to eat across cuisines in Copenhagen. Up to 60 stalls, harbour views, and beer garden.

Insider Intel
One round to survey, one round to eat. The quality across stalls is consistently higher than most European street food markets. Look for the stall with the longest queue of people who look like they work in restaurants — that's usually the benchmark.
Lunch on a sunny weekday for the full selection without weekend crowds. Saturday afternoon is the peak experience if you can handle the queue. Seasonal: open approximately May–October.
Reffen is Copenhagen Street Food's second iteration — more curated and better quality than the original Papirøen market. Outdoor, seasonal, and weather-dependent. The harbour location on Refshaleøen means you need a plan to get there (harbour bus or bicycle). Combining with Amass or Koelschip on the same evening makes sense.
