Reffen, Street food market in Copenhagen, Denmark
Reffen is a street food market in Copenhagen, Denmark, set on a paved area with buildings on both sides. It features a light blue container with a sign reading "ORGANIC HOTDOGS", a black A-frame chalkboard sign, a red wooden building with a sign reading "REFFEN", and a large sign spelling "Reffen" in capital letters on a grey corrugated container, with string lights overhead.
Reffen started on a neglected harbourside lot with run-down workshops and warehouses. Over time, it has grown into the largest street food market in Northern Europe, with a focus on giving old materials new life.
The name Reffen comes from the area Refshaleøen, and the market is a gathering place for people from all over the world. You can see many food stalls serving dishes from different countries, and there are often live music events and workshops.
The market is open every day, so you can visit whenever you like. It is located by the water, and you can easily walk around to explore the different stalls and areas.
Reffen has a miniature version at LEGOLAND, built from LEGO bricks. The market also has its own small brewery called Reffen Brewery, located in the beer triangle area.
