Prolog Coffee Bar Meatpacking District

Why it's a must-try

Sebastian Quistorff and Jonas Gehl opened Prolog in 2016 as a narrow bar in Kødbyen, the old meatpacking district, and it has grown into a roastery with four bars. The original keeps a few seats inside and a couple of tables outside, and on sunny days people sit on the pavement.

The menu is mostly light-roasted single origins, served as espresso, filter or V60 pour-over. For a different room, the Papirøen bar sits in a glass building on the harbour, with high ceilings, wood and views toward Nyhavn. The other two bars are on Randersgade in Østerbro and on Marguerite Vibys Plads in Frederiksberg.
