Cost of living in Copenhagen


 Share

Recommended Posts

We're thinking of renting an apartment for a week, pre or post cruise. What would we expect to pay for groceries in a typical supermarket e.g

litre of milk

bread

orange juice

bacon

butter

bottle of wine

pork chops

 

Also the average price of a meal for 2 in a reasonable restaurant - neither Michelin starred nor fast food.

 

Thanks

We Traveled in Denmark on a car tour for 3 weeks 5 years ago. We found prices much the same as the UK. However now as a result of the disastrous brexit vote sterling is 20/25% down, so prices will be that much higher than UK . As indeed prices are across most of Europe for UK travellers. Fuel used to be cheaper in most places but the difference is negligible or higher. Denmark is expensive for alcohol, well up on UK prices

Just tried to find some representative prices - but very much depend on the type of supermarket Irma expensive and Netto is cheap - also notice that quality might be very different from what your are used to - bacon in Denmark is very different from Danish Bacon sold in the UK - butter is salted - just few examples.

price also depend on the quality of the product.

litre of milk DKK 8,50

bread, rugbrød 750g - DKK 16,75

orange juice 1L - DKK 21,00

bacon - 100g - DKK 22,00

butter, 250 g - DKK 16,00

bottle of wine - DKK 60,00 - everything from DKK 32 and up

pork chops , 400g - DKK 40,00

 

Restaurant will be like DKK 250 pp + drinks.

If you go for an apartment, once you have the area I can provide a list of supermarkets and possible restaurants.

Mange tak Mogens - this is exactly what I was hoping for when I posted! Actual local knowledge.

Nothing is finalised yet, but I will bookmark your answer for future reference.

Thank you again

I also wanted to add some info but for some odd reason I have had some difficulties getting on the website.

 

 

 

The website has just been white without any text at all, is it only me.?

 

 

I haven't experienced any problems over the last days.
