Jolene Bar

Jolene Bar is a casual bar at Flæsketorvet 81 in Kødbyen, the Meatpacking District of Vesterbro, Copenhagen, Denmark. The area was once the city's wholesale meat market and is now a cluster of bars, restaurants and galleries in low industrial buildings. Jolene draws a young, relaxed crowd, mostly in the early twenties to mid-thirties, with a mix of locals, students and visitors exploring the district. There is no dress code; sneakers and everyday clothing are the norm, and the mood is informal and dance-friendly rather than formal. Music is the main draw: DJ sets of indie and disco fill the room, and a small dance floor fills as the night goes on. Drinks are affordable by Copenhagen standards, typically DKK 55-120 (about USD 9-19) per drink, with beer, simple mixed drinks and cocktails on offer. Opening hours are typically Wednesday to Saturday evenings until late, although the pattern can change, so the venue's social media is the best source for current times. The busiest nights are Friday and Saturday, when the dance floor is active after about 10:00 PM. Midweek evenings are quieter and suit smaller groups who want to talk. No cover charge is listed for regular nights, but special events may differ. Table reservations and bottle service are not a feature; the bar works on a walk-in basis and the format is standing, drinking and dancing. The door is generally relaxed, though queues can form late on weekends. Step-free access is not documented, so guests with mobility needs should contact the venue before visiting. Kødbyen has several other bars and late-night restaurants within a short walk, which suits a longer evening out in Vesterbro.
