Wines available by the glass or bottle from Pompette's 500+ label cellar. Martin Ho and team taste all wines before selling. Whites, reds, and natural sparkling options available daily at prices starting from 50 kroner per glass. The wine list is the real star—browse the shop and choose any bottle to drink in the bar for an additional 100 kroner markup.
Tips from diners
Pick a bottle from the shop downstairs at retail price and add 100 kroner to drink it at the bar—often cheaper than ordering wine by the glass and you get more control over what you drink.
Pillowy burrata served as a simple plate paired with edible flowers and subtle beetroot powder. Multiple reviews highlight this as one of Pompette's standout plates that showcases how quality ingredients need minimal preparation.
Tips from diners
Order multiple small plates to share rather than thinking of them as individual dishes—the pricing and portion style encourages grazing and sampling.
Fresh mozzarella cheese.
Tips from diners
The bar stays open until midnight daily and attracts a lively crowd after 10 PM. It's a solid spot for wine and small plates on your way to other plans.
Simple yet perfect—just-ripe tomatoes cut and seasoned with fleur de sel and cracked pepper. This dish represents Pompette's philosophy: let quality ingredients shine with no fussy preparation.
Tips from diners
Pompette takes no reservations so go early (noon or just after opening) on weekends if you want a table inside. Otherwise expect to stand or sit outside.
Soft, cloud-like ricotta served with quality anchovy fillets—a simple pairing that highlights how opposites complement each other. A favorite among natural wine enthusiasts.
Tips from diners
The wine of the day changes constantly—ask staff what they're excited about rather than ordering the same bottle twice. Bottles are marked 50 kroner per glass, changing daily.
Opened in 2018 by Martin Ho, a globe-trotting sommelier trained in Paris and New York, and Jesper, a winemaker. Located in a small basement shop on Nørrebrogade, Pompette has become synonymous with serious natural wine in Copenhagen. The cellar holds over 500 labels, though only about 10% are on display—diners can browse and pick any bottle from the shop and add 100 kroner to drink it in the bar.
Arrive between noon and 2 PM or after 9 PM for the smoothest walk-in experience. The lunch crowd clears by mid-afternoon and the late-evening crowd arrives around 10 PM.
The small space inside fills quickly, but the standing bar and outdoor seating in warmer months are just as fun. Summer tables on Nørrebrogade are prime real estate.
Ask Martin Ho or Jesper about what they're excited about in the cellar. They'll often hand-pick bottles or suggest pairings with the small plates in ways no wine list ever could.
