Warpigs

Warpigs at Flæsketorvet 25-37 is a large brewpub serving American-style smoked meats in Kødbyen, the Meatpacking District of Vesterbro in Copenhagen. It brings barbecue and craft beer into a converted industrial building, and it is one of the best-known casual venues in the district for visitors wanting a hearty meal and a wide choice of beers. The cuisine is American-style barbecue, with smoked brisket and pulled pork as the signature dishes, served with traditional sides. The beverage programme is central to the venue, with craft beer brewed on the premises or chosen to match the food. A meal costs about DKK 150-280 (about USD 23-43), which is moderate for Copenhagen and makes it popular with groups. The dining room is large, loud and informal, with long tables, a casual crowd of locals and visitors, and a lively, social atmosphere; there is no dress code and noise levels are high when the room is full. The venue is open daily, though hours should be confirmed on the website. Seating is mostly walk-in, so there is little need to plan ahead except for large parties, who may wish to contact the venue first. On busy weekend evenings, a wait for a table is possible, and arriving early in the evening reduces that risk. The location in the Meatpacking District allows an easy pairing with a walk through the neighbouring venues, and the area is within walking distance of Copenhagen Central Station. Visitors who want to sample the beer in quantity can order a tasting selection alongside a shared platter of meats, which is a practical way to try several dishes at a modest cost per person.
