Coffee is not just coffee

Copenhagen Coffee Lab is a Danish-owned coffee chain with its own coffee roastery, bakery, and cafés in Germany, France, and Portugal – and one in Copenhagen. In the cafés, you can get all kinds of high-standard, freshly brewed coffee from our beans. The beans come from our own roastery, and there is a bean for every taste and every type of coffee. Coffee is not just coffee, just as wine is not just wine. In addition to coffee, we serve the most delicious bread and pastries, home-baked according to the best traditions, with a lifetime of experience from some of Denmark’s mostskilled master bakers, who have previously built up an entire empire of bakery shops in Denmark.

It is no coincidence that Copenhagen Coffee Lab focuses on coffee, bread, and pastries. Two of the four founders have always worked with coffee and developed the current roastery – and the other two are, as previously mentioned, former master bakers. In other words, they are genuinely committed to coffee, bread, and pastries with love and respect for the craft. Always at work in one sense or another, always looking for new methods, tastes, and flavours – not to mention new cafés.

But Copenhagen Coffee Lab is not either-or; it is both-and. Ultimately, both with coffee, pastries, and bread. In other words, the quality of the products is the core of our self-understanding. But the most important thing is that the feeling is, furthermore, passed on to our customers in the stores. They experience the difference – that they can feel and taste that we put all our focus and energy into our work, from the roastery to the bakery and further on to our staff in our stores. And that is why the story of Copenhagen Coffee Lab is as much about people as it is about bread, pastries, and coffee. It’s about people who go that extra mile.

The spirit of Copenhagen Coffee Lab lives in the extra effort we make every single day: keep challenging ourselves, recognize that we never stop learning, and take pride in the products we produce. Not just because we use sourdough in our rye bread or butter in our croissants, but more because we are professional, dedicated, and focused on doing our very best every single day. That applies to the craftsmanship, the quality, and the respect for the products – as well as all the other things we deliver every day, from service to products and the furnishing of shops and cafés.
