Grod

I've been wanting to go to Grød for ages, because I've heard very good things about it, and the interior on this particular location on Jægersborggade is super cute.

When I finally went to visit for a late lunch, I wasn't craving breakfast, but wanted something lunch-y. I asked which things they could veganize and they told me only the dhal, which is what I went for. When it was served, there was a big blob of yoghurt on top of my meal, which I'm glad I asked about. Had I been traveling, I would've assumed that they understood the concept, but living in Denmark, and having been given the wrong order on several occasions, I always know to double-check, and sure enough, it was regular yoghurt.
They re-did my bowl, and while it was a very nice touch with fresh cilantro and chopped almonds, the dhal itself was bland. Would've also been nice if the vegan option wasn't actually omitting the yoghurt, but given a vegan option, as it is easy to find in Copenhagen these days.

May be back for breakfast on later occasion.

Be aware that space is very limited, and you might have to be lucky to get a seat. If you're just in the mood for sit down for coffee and a vegan cake, I'd suggest going to Nørrested, around the corner instead.

Really tasty vegan oats & dahl available. The staff is always friendly and the coffee is good.

Has vegan options. Very typical Copenhagen feeling inside :) It is hyggeligt

I don't know about you, but when I'm traveling I sometimes struggle finding a decent place for breakfast. It's my favorite meal of the day and so I always look forward to something special.. but good vegan restaurants don't always open early, and if they do the breakfast is not always interesting.

Enter Grød, a porridge restaurant in Copenhagen. Okay, okay, it's not vegan, I even saw a savory lunch porridge that had chicken in it, but if you can look beyond that, this restaurant is an amazing find. Not only do they serve delicious porridge (with organic and mostly seasonal ingredients), the coffee (I love my soy cappuccinos) I had there was simply divine (and served in size "soup bowl")! The menu changes often, but when I was there I had three grain porridge cooked on half water, half carrot juice, topped with apple, raisins, flaxseed and ginger syrup. Wow, this was amazing! I went back the next day and they made me a porridge cooked on half water, half ricemilk, topped with berries, nuts and licorice sugar. This item originally had skyr (Icelandic yoghurt) on it, which can easily be omitted. Checking the menu, I also saw they had vegan dahl on the savory menu, and I bet that if you ask, even more options can be veganized. I look forward to visiting Copenhagen again!

(btw, they also have a location at Torvehallerne..)
