42 Degrees Raw

We went here for a late breakfast as we'd heard about their granola.

We arrived at about 11am and had the granola and pancakes!! The breakfasts are sold all day!!

We also had a fresh apple juice, green tea and a coffee.

Everything is vegan, including syrup instead of sugar and three types of milk; cashew, almond or soy.

They have a few matcha and chia options of granola also.

The food looked and tasted delicious and the service was lovely; I hope to go back again!

Really recommend this for a healthy tasty breakfast/brunch!!

p.s. They have salads too which also looked awesome!

I ate at 2 branches 3 times in Copenhagen and both were the same quality of food. It has some nice options of raw lasagne and thai noodles, sandwiches all with avocado, pizzas and salads and lots of cakes. The food is not the cheapest or the biggest portions but its all vegan and is a pleasant place to eat. It was always full.

I'm often by this restaurant and they offer great and healthy plant-based food. Their lasagne is a bit tasteless, their fries a bit bland, but their Granola Bowl truly devine! The best vegan breakfast item I have ever had with amazing cashew cream and crunchy toppings. The sandwiches are also up for recommendation along with the burger.

Sincerely,
JoJo

tasty burger, tasty pizza, muffin and shakes

unfriendliy, stressed service and not enought place to stay/sit

but if im in copenhagen at an other time, i will visit this restaurant a second time

A very bautiful place, but the food was to salty and fatty. I got some of the salad which was very delicious, but the sandwich I got was (to my taste) to salty and fatty. I also got a figbomb and sadly it tasted old and bit like bad socks (sure sokker). There aren't really that many seats, which is a little bit annoying when the people you sit next to isn't friendly. The people who worked there was nice, but because of the many people they were confused about who ordered what.

I have been here many times and it's good food, though sometimes a bit too oily.

They have a nice selection of cakes, pizzas, salads, juices and more. Really good freshly made juices!

It is too small compared to the amount of customers they have though.

I have been twice - once had the lasagne and salad, another time the burger. I thought the lasagne was tasty but really pricey for how much food you actually get. I also thought that salad, although nice, is not a very imaginative thing to have on the menu at a raw food restaurant.

The burger was okay. Not a huge fan of the bread. Compared to other vegetarian/vegan restaurant in Copenhagen however, I really feel that they charge way too much. 129kr just for the burger, then 10kr for extras and 20kr for fries? Come on. It's not a restaurant, more like a stylish café, and there is no table service. The prices should reflect this.

Good music and outlets on the wall for charging your phone. Inside is crowded and hot. Paris juice was great as were the Thai noodles. worth the wait.

We went there two times. First time we had medium salads which consisted three different salads from the counter. Taste was very good and fresh.
The second time there were mix-up in our order and it was not registered (even though we asked it two times) and we waited our juices half an hour. For apologies we got raw cookies.
Place is very busy and crowded.

The food is excellent, but the place isn't cosy. The music is very loud so it's hard to speak.
I recommend you to order take out.

We stopped in for lunch while sightseeing. It's order at the counter and then choose a seat at the long communal tables. We both got the burger with sweet potato fries, but with different sauces. We also ordered juices/shakes along with desserts. It was good and the staff were friendly. Good central location.

Loved this place . Great location , atmosphere and food . Tried the burger with a side of sweet potato fries and avocado sandwich with pesto and all salads they had on the menu . Loved everything! A def recommend from my side . Side note : it can be very busy during lunch time .

I had raw lasagna, it was nice but I did not expect to have so much sunflower seeds inside (I am allergic), and they are literally in every dish. Tiramisu dessert was quite good.
It was not very clear if the dishes are vegan or raw.

In addition I accidentally left a 50 krones on the counter and was very disappointed when staff refused to return it to me the next day.
So in overall it spoiled all the experience.

We absolutely loved this place! Delicious cakes, delicious raw lasagna, really tasty-looking sandwiches and burgers, yummy beverages... The only con was that the place was a bit small on the inside, no tables outside. It was really noisy, too. The awesome food made it perfect.

I absolutely loved the staff. They're so proud that everything on the menu is vegan!

I had the avocado sandwich which was delicious and the desserts where fabulous... yummy...I highly recommend this place.

Lovely staff on my arrival, explained everything for me as I was a bit confused, got the burger and a blueberry slice and I would definitely come back and recommend this place

I went here twice for a vegan breakfast. It offers several options for a decent breakfast, by which I mean something healthy to eat that fills the stomach and a nice coffee to make a good start of the day. The place and presentation of the food is quite stylish, so that's nice. Portion sizes are fair. The prices are a bit high, though. I did not find other places in the center that open early and offer a vegan breakfast (more than just bread), so I was glad I found this one.

A café with a variety of very delicious raw food dishes, including Pizza, Sandwiches and Salat. Incredibly delicious cakes and good coffee!

It was the best vegan restaurant we found in Copenhagen, but it does not mean that everything was very delicious. The taste is mostly average, but there are many options to choose from. It sometimes gets really crowded. Not cheap.

Based on previous reviews here, we weren't sure if this would be too, "trendy," for us, as we were simply looking for some good, honest, food to fill up on for the rest of the day. However, whilst it is admittedly quite trendy, 42 Degrees Raw is by no means pretentious; rather it had a warm and welcoming atmosphere. People seem to come and work or study here (with the free wifi) whilst enjoying lunch, so the atmosphere is quite laid back, but this means that the few tables fill up fast. The staff were polite and friendly, and spoke English (although an English menu is already displayed to assist non-Danish speakers). The only slight point of confusion was that the server stated that everything was vegan, yet one of the packaged bags of cookies that are also sold was clearly labelled as containing honey. My husband tried the burger with sweet potato fries and described the burger as both trying to imitate meat but at the same time not losing the texture and flavour of the grains and vegetables from which it was made. I opted for the raw tapas which consisted of a lovely spicy noodle dish, a piece of lasagne which was nice but rather drenched in mayo, and an avocado sandwich with delicious raw bread. Actually to go easy on the mayo is the only thing we would change upon a re-visit. The coffee is lovely and strong and the cakes looked amazing, but the portion sizes are so great that we were both stuffed after just a main! At 129DKK-ish for a main, this restaurant isn't cheap, but for Copenhagen, it's not really expensive either.

We had the burgers and a piece of cake. I also had sweet potato fries with my burger. I liked the burger a lot and it was filling. The ketchup gave flavour to it. The cake was amazing.
The only issue was limited seating. It is very small too so you feel like you're in the way all the time.
I also found it quite expensive but that is the same all over Copenhagen!

I do not speak danish, but I asked if the pizza was raw. When she said it was raw, I said, "really?", because it didn't look like it. She asked her collegue to confirm, and came back to me, saying yes it was really raw. So I ordered it. After all, it made sense that it would be raw for a restaurant named 42 raw, which was displayed as a raw restaurant in my happycow app. After feeling a little bad and anxious because the bread wasn't raw (I am 100% raw so whenever I eat a small amount of cooked food I feel bad), I feel betrayed. Gluten free bread maybe, but still not raw. I pay a lot of money to eat only raw and detox, it's not to eat cooked food without my knowledge, that I'll later have to detox.
I didn't want to leave a bad review but that reflects my overall experience. Other than that the location is great, but please don't call yourself 42 raw if you're only 50% raw.

The taste of the lasagne was astonishing but unfortunately only an appetiser. There is quite a lot of choice and fair prices. Also great shakes and friendly staff.

i love food there.

I have eaten a lot of vegan gluten free raw food. The burger here at 42 Raw set a new standard for me. The bar is so high that I haven't been able to find anything else during my vegan travels. So worth a visit for a treat!

Lovely place with lovely food!
I've tried everything on the menu (I work at the place, hehe), and it's just really delicious! The cakes are to die for and the sandwiches are really good as well. We just got a knew burger on the menu where you can chose between 4 different dressings and add vegan 'cheese' if you want to.

The food is good to a certain level but personally I think they use to much fat which is a shame ! They have some lovely cakes for sure so definitely give it a try :)

this place really does love up to its reputation. it's not too expensive, the staff is very kind and last but not least the food is delicious (and beautiful as well)
try the raw lasagne and the choc chip cookie
(↠ not everything is raw!)

Nice friendly vegan place in the city centre with a good variety of fresh salads and sandwiches. I had a mix of the three salads which was nice and a vegan chai latte (delicious). The price was reasonable for Copenhagen I paid around 11euro for the salad mix (large) and the chai latte. Staff were nice and indoor seating is cosy and warm- perfect for colder months.

Very impressive place with majestic dishes. I tried there raw lasagne, banana cake and a green smoothie. Well.. lasagne was so oily that after having eaten half of it I started to feel s bit sick. Way too much fats in it. But the cake was heavenly! If you're weighing what to try, definitely go for the cake.

I visited 42 Degrees Raw after seeing the ad on happycow. It was everything I would expect for a raw vegan restaurant. They had a showcase full of raw vegan dessert bars and salads. They had a long list of juices, I tried the Barcelona and it was great. I downed it before I even got my food. I got the raw lasange for lunch and it was excellent. The orange and banana chocolate dessert bars are by far the best thing they have, so delicious. The restaurant is small with limited seating and its very hot in the summer but if you grab it to go its perfect! I would return a thousand times.

great but small sandwich

This is an "Easy Fancy Pancy Copenhagen Chill Out" place to go to when you are on your shopping roll in the center and need a healthy kick.
It is hip on the top and so are the prices - on the upper end.
The food is delish, clean, colorfull and tasty. But for a low budget, this place is might a bit to much as you can head over to other raw & vegan places and cut some of the price.
But if you dont care this is a go-to place.
You can always get some fresh salats and a healthy juice to flush it down with.
The place is small and the outdoor sitting is quite limit, so if you go there on a sunny-sunday you might find it hard to find a place to sit down. But then pick up your order in the biodegradable containers and head over to the "Kings Garden" near by.

I tried several things and it was nice but not that great. The lasagne was even a bit disappointing. The one I did really like was the protein shake.

Fantastic. Everything was beautiful and delicious. I'm actually not a huge raw fan, and I ended up buying their gorgeous cookbook (it's in Danish, but it's actually pretty easy to figure out with a little help from google translate). Unlike a lot of raw food, found this filling (had a sandwich and dessert, my mum had soup and salad). Also, some complained of the price. I found it typical of Copenhagen and not atypical for new york prices (what I'm used to). Everything was extremely fresh and the staff was friendly and helpful too. Also tried their Stockholm location - also wonderful.

I had a good sandwich, it was tasty, but not that much, and also a bit small.

The food here is good and creative, though if you don't buy into the "raw" or "undercooked" approach to preparing food, you might feel too limited in options. We had sandwiches that were tasty, I had sublime hot chocolate sweetened with agave (there was a choice of what kind of "milk" and I think the almond milk is better - I returned a second time and did not specify almond milk and it was a teensy bit less amazing), and a dessert. My second time was just for cocoa and dessert. The apple "cake" (I don't remember what they called it) was excellent, as was the triple chocolate. Prices are steep, which is not surprising for Copenhagen. This is a casual restaurant, you order at the counter and they will bring the food to your seat. There are no water-service vegan or vegetarian restaurants in Copenhagen as far as I know.

This was one of the most expensive restaurants I've been to so far - although I guess it's pretty normal in this city considering Copenhagen prices. I enjoyed my visit very much and it was my favourite restaurant of the four I visited during this trip to Denmark, so I don't regret spending the money, but it still hurt a bit.

There is an English menu and the very friendly waitress explained it to me. I chose the avocado and chili sandwich and a broccoli salad. Both were totally delicious and very filling. I also had a smoothie which was very thick (I prefer them if they are more like a drink and not like a cream) and so I could hardly finish it. More like a dessert than a drink.
I also enjoyed the atmosphere, although I prefer seats with a back and think the benches just look cool, but are not very comfy. The music was a bit too loud, I could have relaxed a little better if it had been a little quieter.

The location is great, close to Kongens Nytorv, Copenhagen's central square. This makes the restaurant perfect lunch break while you are out shopping or exploring central Copenhagen and Nyhavn.

I visited on a busy (sunny!) Saturday lunchtime, my veggie friend very much enjoyed the lasagne and I loved the mixed salad with added hummous.

Beware the bottle water at £2.50 a bottle though!

They have changed their concept - they're gluten free and raw.
There's not much food to choose between but it is very tasty and delicious.
You don't get much food but you pay a lot.

I love their food but it's expensive.

When I travel, being a gluten free vegan, preparedness is a must. I brought 6 hungry boys, who are not vegans, werk me to 42raw. Each one was happier than the next with their Selection. This place is a MUST when in Copenhagen

My partner and I accidentally passed this place. We saw it on Happy Cow app before and decided to stop by. We wanted something cooked and saw that they had pizza.

Delicious pizza (not raw) tomatoes and pineapple and tomatoes and mushrooms with something that tasted cheesy. Nice vibe here. She used gloves to handel the food. Good music. But quite pricy, but if you can pay 100 dkk for 10 shots of alcohol then really the same for 2 slices of pizza can be done occasionally. Good presentation. Lots of raw options with some cooked food. It's not a restaurant, but a good place for a snack.Actually, the pizza were surprisingly filling. Maybe as it was wholewheat.

My husband and I ate here the two days we were in Copenhagen and it was truly amazing!! After spending a week in Norway and not eating particularly well, this was just what we needed!! The food was so fresh, healthy and above all- tasty!! Took a while to get served but otherwise, can't complain at all. Highly recommended!!

Very good little place, nice and friendly staff, many choices. We took vegetables curry pasta and an amazing sandwish avocado, cherry tomatoes and pesto. The bread was excellent and gluten-free.
Tasty and nutritive, we recommend you to go here !

It is a great, small place offering really yummy food options. However, not all the food they have is raw (??) as they offer small vegan pizzas slices, sandwiches, risotto, coffee, tea...
The food is really great (I tried risotto, sandwich and a raw lasagna), however, heavily over-priced...

I was in Copenhagen for a couple of days, and I loved the food here so much I went there three times.

Whatever my (omnivore) boyfriend and I tried, lasagna, sandwich, noodles, cake, or a smoothie, everything was delicious and very satisfying.

For quality food like this the prices seemed absolutely reasonable to us.

Can't recommend 42 Dregrees Raw enough!

Extremely strong coffee!! not nice waitresses in this friendly city. Nice chocolate cake.

The menu is not big, but the food is mighty tasty. The tapas are the most expensive menu item, but they come with a sandwich, pad thai (spirilized veggies) and lasagna. Everything was perfect and delicious. I got there on a rainy day, so everyone was tightly packed inside with little elbow room. You share your take or take your food to go.

We were very pleased to find this restaurant. The meal is just amazing - I had avocado sandvich and a smoothie, yummy. However, the place was just too small for the crowd that was there on Saturday at 2PM. The average waiting time was 30 minutes and we only found place at window "bar" to sit. Others just had to select take-away food. Also, I found the place a bit messy, but that was because of too many people.

Love the juices and pesto/avo/hummus sandwiches as well as the risotto! Delicious!

We had the tapas plate (lasagna, thai noodles, sandwich) and a pizza hawaii with salad and everything was amazing! Very fresh and tasty. It's located in hip and rather rich area of CPH and the interior was nice, although it was a little crowded.

Very good fresh, raw food. Limited seating, and the available seating rather uncomfortable... But designwise pretty cool. Rather good for takeout or a fast snack.

40 Degrees Raw is a nice little place right in the city center of Copenhagen.

I've been here only once but I would love to come back. I went for a warm dish - a delicious risotto with organic brown rice, mushrooms and white truffle oil and a good fresh juice with beetroot, apple, cucumber and ginger. The raw chocolate cake I had for dessert was good, but not special.

Indeed the place is tiny but they did their best to make use of the space. There are some kind of wooden stairs with seats and tables along one of the walls (creating different levels) and some small high tables with barstools along the windows. Not very cozy, but nice at least for a quick bite. The staff was very friendly, too.

I had the Paris juice - strawberry, orange, and ginger; and the coconut and ginger slice. Both were delicious! The staff member was really friendly and I liked the atmosphere. Price was reasonable for Denmark. There weren't many tables and chairs so I can't imagine sitting down for a meal there but it was perfect to stop and snack.

Im mostly baking raw, but I was curious about the food as well and thought it would be a good idea to get some inspiration while I was visiting Copenhagen (we dont have that many raw places in Sweden). I love it! It was a bit pricy (about €16 for the tapas plate) but definitely worth it.

A well-deserved 5 stars. This was some of the best vegan food we've had yet. We ordered the tapas plate and the mushroom risotto which were both amazing. The risotto was served warm with truffle oil, and the tapas plate had a selection of 3 different items (avocado 'sandwich', Thai noddles and lasagna).
The cafe is located in a very central part of Copenhagen - definitely don't miss it! They had a huge juice menu and delicious-looking dessert cabinet too.

I went here with my boyfriend whilst in Copenhagen. I was very excited to visit this cafe, as I had heard a lot about it. The menu had a good selection of juices, smoothies and snacks. There was something a bit pretentious about this place..also, there is a distinct lack of sitting. I don't think I would rush back in a hurry!

This is a mostly raw food, so very suited for vegans. It also has some hot dish. Good looking cakes, and teas. Nice decorations and atmosphere. Friendly staff. I strongly recommend this, in that day when you planned to stroll through the small streets of the center of Copenhagen.

I read that people complain that it is expensive. But making vegan food require more time and effort than simply grilling a burger and putting tomato ketchup from a bottle. It is hard work and that we even have a vegan restaurant is some sort of miracle in the first place.

Very good food. Nice atmosphere. A little expensive but then again all food in Denmark seems expensive. We had two entrees, a juice, a smoothie and two cakes and it was 408DK which is about $70.00 Canadian.

An English menu is posted. Everything is raw vegan. Juices, smoothies, muesli, raw yogurt, hummus, tapas plate, desserts. Coffees and teas available. Raw crackers, vanilla cookies (28 kr), energy balls (32 kr).
I had carrot-strawberry-ginger juice (48 kr) and the tapas plate (128 kr), which consisted of three items on a slate plate: avocado sandwich on raw crackers, lasagna (cashew cream, pesto, thinly sliced zucchini, sunflower seeds on top) and zucchini spaghetti with spicy, creamy sauce (cumin?), topped with green onion slices and black sesame seeds. All was delicious; the sauces scrumptious.
They also sell raw-food cookbooks. The restaurant is located just a block up from the shopping street. Three small tables, stools at the window and benches above the tables. Fast service.

The relationship between quality and price isn't good. My boyfriend and I took a lasagna, a salad, two smoothies and a slice of cake for 330 kr -nearly- total (56 $, 45 euros). The price would not be too high if the portions were so small.
- The lasagna: was made largely of vegetables (like zucchini and eggplant). It was not bad, although the portion was tiny
- The avocado and chili salad: the only order which had a nice portion. The thing that struck me was the topping, which was a subspecies of cheese dusty but fluffy. The flavor was pretty good. The rest of the salad was made of avocado, chili, tomatoes, lettuce and sunflower seeds.
- The smoothies: I think were called 'Barcelona' and 'Stockholm', which contained mango, mint, ginger, apple .. They were good but nothing of special.
- The chocolate cake: very good, but the portion was really small. Each slice costs 49 kr (8.30 $, 6.60 euros).
The place is nice, not very big. Great for those who love the raw food and has the chance to spend more.

Sort of stylish snack bar serving a limited, but I thought uniformly excellent selection of vegan main courses and an amazing chocolate cake. Food is all raw but flavours are sophisticated and it is NOT just a salad bar. Vegan "lasagne" and pizza are not lasagne or pizza, and the better for it. Clever and different. Very clean, very central, not much seating but if tables are full you can sit further up the pyramid (you will see what I mean).

Maybe it's the old New Yorker in me that has me too spoiled,but even after 4 years of living in Copenhagen,I can never get over just how disappointing much of the Danish veg fare is, and Raw 42 is right up there. To me,it is just a glorified salad bar. I mean,just how often is a salad NOT raw? (I know that there are non-raw salads,but one thinks raw when thinking of salads for a reason). I have tried to make myself go in many times only to find myself leaving while shaking my head. I did eat there once,and was not disappointed with disappointment. I think that anyone who eats here is quite the sucker. Go home,make yourself a salad and save yourself about 89Dkk (almost $18!!) The desserts are meerly OK and the smoothies are anything out of the ordinary. Boring,way expensive and non-surprising. Stay away. [edit by staff]

It's a great place to pop in and grab a quick lunch while in the city. I have had the lasagna twice and have been very pleased each time. I cannot evaluate their other dishes since I have not tried them. Their juices and smoothies are also tasty and they will customize them for you. I have not yet sprung the extra DKK for their desserts, even though they look fantastic. Maybe next time :) I like the modern atmosphere and decor and will certainly go back again.

I had a meals here three times, and I like it. Its fast and conseptualized lika a starbucks cafe, and serves OK salads. But the desserts deserves some attention. Good. The restaurant i small and not very personal when it comes to atmosphere. But in total well perfomed and should suit city people.

Great little raw food restaurant. Neat, modern juice bar vibe with a few tables and wooden steps with pillows to sit on. Best vegan chai latte in the city (using almond milk). They serve only salads and the menu is only in Danish, but the staff was super helpful in translating when asked about the ingredients (all 100% vegan). Adam had the salad featuring cucumber and date, which was pretty frickin' great and a combination of flavors that we never would have expected. Care had a more basic avocado and tomato salad, which was totally good (although she liked Adam's better and since he is a good boyfriend, he let her eat the rest about half way through). We liked the chocolate cake -- rich and pretty divine. Weren't at all dissappointed by the selection or the food! Go vegans. You will like it.

first of all, this place is labeled as a vegan restaurant, but has honey in two of their salads (their walnuts are roasted in honey).

also, note that this restaurant is at no. 32, and not 42. it took us ages to find it, since the place is pretty small and the sign is barely visible. it's very close to strøget.

i was a bit disappointed that they only had salads, but still got one. mine had avocado, tomato, parsley, fresh spinach, some kind of tasty wheat and a dressing. even though i didn't think i would be, i was very pleasantly full afterwards.

i also had a piece of "the best chocolate cake in denmark", which frankly i don't really agree on (and it was 48 dkk!). the next time i'm in the area and in the mood for something sweet, i would probably go for the brownie or the banana pancakes.

there's only a few tables, and it's more expensive to eat in than take away, but service is really fast and very nice (unlike copenhagen!).

Friendly staffa and lots of food choices. Vegan chocolate"milk" with almond milk and other original food recipies. It is rather small, but the seating is quite creative too. Another veggie reataurant and a small natural food store in the same street.
