Café Auto

There’s a reason Café Auto is always full on the weekends: it’s cozy, charming, and budget-​friendly. They have a morning special before 10.00 where you can get a breakfast plate for 65 DKK, but what I like about the morning menu is that you can order individual things, if you’re not a fan of the ‘little bit of everything’ platter. For example: a large bowl of skyr with halvtorn, for a reasonable 55 DKK, and the røræg with pico de gallo, (85 DKK) which is my personal favorite! A generous serving of scrambled eggs with slices of avocado, a fresh pico de gallo, and warm rye bread. Paired with coffee and it’s a nice way to wake up. The wait staff was friendly and the atmosphere was slightly sleepy — it wasn’t too loud or crazy for a Sunday morning, which was perfect.

10 – 15 mins away from forum metro, this café is pretty spacious. Menu was written in both Danish and English. Yay!
The tables get filled pretty quickly, we were lucky to get the last table when we got there at 2pm.
My cappuccino was nice and strong. I ordered baked goats cheese and lettuce with caramel hazelnut sauce on toast.
I didn’t expect a full small rind of goats cheese would come out, but it did. It was super delicious! Really glad I ordered it. The baked lettuce was yum and gave the food a taste of freshness to balance the goats cheese.
Would definitely ordered this again.

Ok so it’s no surprise that Copenhagen has expensive food… But 200ddk for breakfast sure was too expensive in my books! We arrived around 10:30am and missed the smaller ‘cheaper’ breakfast, so we had to order the other offerings at 95ddk. I had the eggs benedict and my husband had something else that I can’t remember what it’s called ha. A latte was 30ddk, which I think is average around the city.
The amount of food you get is alright, but coming from Canada and big portions of food we felt a bit ripped off. Even some roasted potatoes on the side would’ve been nice. I mean maybe food is super expensive because everything is imported?
The food is quite good though! I don’t want to say anything bad about that bit. I just wish there was a bit more bang for your buck that’s all.
The service was meh. There was only once waitress when we arrived and she was pretty frazzled. I noticed they had a wifi connection and since they were a ‘Café’ I asked if I could join. She wouldn’t give me the password, but did enter it in my phone. A bit annoying actually, but maybe I wasn’t supposed to join who knows. It took forever to take our order and a good 15 mins for the food.

For once, I was going for brunch. I usually enjoy making brunch myself at home, but this time I was gonna try it somewhere else. My and my friends have walked past this café quite a few times, and finally decided on trying it.
I ordered a coffee while I waited my friends to show up (the only way I could reserve a table, so it had to be that way).
When everyone had arrived, we all decided to order the standard brunch. Brunch was 130 kr (roughly 20 US dollars) with no drinks on the side. If you’re doing the normal brunch procedure you’d order a glass of juice and a coffee on the side. That would put the price of your brunch to about 200 kr (30 $) and that is pretty expensive.
We tried the brunch and all the elements on the platter was good. Scrambled eggs was nice and not the processed kind, and the bacon was nicely fried and crispy. Youghurt was pretty good as well (pretty hard to screw that up though) and the grapes and melon on the plate was also nice. The bread which came along was good as well.
All in all pretty good flavors and ingredients. The brunch delivers, but it is pretty expensive if you ask me. To get a 5-​star rating when you’re asking that price, you’re gonna have to deliver something more.

Good food but need a huge improvement on customer service. Slow service, both the kitchen and the waiting staff.

Came here with the new community manager in Copenhagen to this newly open place at Nørrebro. Just as its brother and sister Café Taxa and Café Pixie they have a genuine connection to their names as Auto use to be and old autoshop.
They really have managed to capture the «grease lightning» feeling without crossing over to be a diner. Feels genuine and thought-​through!
The lunch menu looked fantastic and there was many different types of food to choose from, as traditional danish eggcake
We had the ceasar salad and for a change there were chunks of fried chicken (with skin) instead of the common skinless fillet. The dressing could have been a real ceasar salad dressing and not seasoned mayonnaise as I believe it was.
I love to come back as the service was really good and then I shall try the eggcake and hopefully 5’star it!
