1. DIAMOND SLICE
Blågårds Plads 27, 2200 Copenhagen N
Diamond Slice is inspired by the classic large pizza slice you can find in New York (at least in movies). Cozy informal restaurant atmosphere and a lovely outdoor seating area at Blågårds Plads. It's sourdough-based pizza and you can add dip for your crusts. The "slice menu" makes it possible to taste several different flavors at once. They also have a wide selection of drinks, with their own "Diamond Pilsner" being a beer you must try. If you prefer a cocktail with your pizza, you can treat yourself to a variety of drinks and good wine on tap.
2. TRIBECA
Tribeca, Bisiddervej 16, 2400 Copenhagen NV
Tribeca, located in the Nordvest, has created a completely unique atmosphere by combining urban style with authentic Italian cooking. Their pizzas are a fusion of the traditional and the modern, where the classic Neapolitan pizzas get a twist with local ingredients and creative toppings. The pizzas are large, making them perfect for sharing.
3. SURT
Bag Elefanterne 2, 1799 Copenhagen V
The name "Surt" refers to their use of natural fermentation in the dough production, resulting in a light, airy and extremely tasty pizza base. The menu is simple but refined, focusing on few but selected ingredients. The pizzas are made in a wood-fired oven, which gives them a characteristic taste and texture.

Corsa is a chain and you can find it at Vesterbro, in Nordhavn and at Indre Østerbro as well as at Islands Brygge. They specialize in Neapolitan pizza, and with a wood-fired oven and the best Italian ingredients, Corsa delivers an authentic taste experience. The pizzas here are simple but incredibly tasty. For lunch, they also have a sandwich consisting of bread reminiscent of their pizza base, and it tastes fantastic.
5. HOS FISCHER
Victor Borges Plads 12, 2100 Copenhagen Ø
Hos Fischer is an Italian restaurant that serves delicious classic Italian menus served familiy style, Wednesday to Saturday. But on Sundays and Mondays there are pizzas on the menu - Roman style - and the name is Maupa pizzeria. Roman style pizzas are known for their ultra-thin crust and crispy edges. The menu changes regularly, but you can always expect exciting flavor combinations and high quality.
6. PICO

Pico is a chain and you will find them in almost every district in Copenhagen. They are a trendy pizza restaurant that combines classic Italian pizza craftsmanship with a modern twist. Here you can find everything from traditional pizzas to innovative versions with unconventional toppings. Pico is particularly known for their small, delicate pizzas, which make it possible to taste several different flavors at once.
7. DEJ
Multiple locations
The original DEJ is located on Vesterbro, close to Kødbyen, but they have since opened several locations. At DEJ, they take the Italian classics and give them new life with a Scandinavian touch. Just like in Italy, good ingredients are the starting point for all their dishes, but at DEJ they put their own stamp on the classics. Enjoy the pizzas in their colorful restaurants, with fresh cocktails and a social dining concept.

9. OTTO
Multiple locations
Otto is a chain, located in Vesterbro, Nørrebro and Østerbro and they are one of the newer additions to Copenhagen's pizza scene. Here, it's all about simplicity and quality. Their pizzas are made with the best ingredients, and the base is perfectly crispy with a soft centre. The decor is industrial and is not inteded for an all-nighter. At Otto, it is possible to buy a pizza from their fridge, which you can heat at home. A great alternative to take away, so you can enjoy your pizza at home fresh from the oven.
10. BEHOV
Multiple locations
Behov started in the Nordvest but can now also be found on Åboulevarden, Vesterbro. However, the store at Vesterbro is more intended for take-away. They call the restaurant in Nordvest a restaurant in an unpretentious, relaxed and modern setting. Behov forms an integral part of the area's innovative, sustainable and visionary atmosphere. They also make a virtue of meeting the rapidly growing need for gluten-free and vegan alternatives, and are proud to be able to offer a very tasty gluten-free pizza dough and equally delicious sandwiches in gluten-free foccacia bread.
11. FLERE FUGLE
Rentemestervej 57, 2400 Copenhagen NV
In the same area as Behov in Nordvest, you will find Flere Fugle, which is a bakery, pizza and natural wine bar – in the same spirit as Café Fovl on Sneppevej, of which Flere Fugle is an extension. You will find them in the backyard of Demokrati Garage, where they have a nice large outdoor area, whic is covered in case of rain. They have a small but well-selected selection of pizzas on their evening menu.
12. MOTHER
Høkerboderne 9-15, 1712 Copenhagen V
Mother in Kødbyen was one of the first restaurants to open here, and they have literally been fully booked ever since. The pizzas are delicious and are usually what guests come for, but we would also recommend their weekend brunch. Mother has never disappointed. Except when we haven't been able to get a table, hurry up and book here and get a bite of a great classic in Kødbyen in Copenhagen.
