The Pizza Bro equals classic Italian pizzas with crunchy organic crust, topped with a combination of the finest Italian specialities and organic produce.
The wood-fired owens which, among other, fires with birch and beech, gives the pizzas a different and exiting expression, an attitude, which is also emphasized by the always spirited pizzaiolos.
Behind The Pizza Bro is the founder of Cofoco, Torben Klitbo, who has shed his love on Italian pizzas.
And the love also steams from the Italian pizza when you are handed the warm pizza box.

The Fat Pike provides you with seafood and steak in abundant quantities in a loose and casual setting.
Our chefs are passionate about the informal kitchen without any fear of frying and grilling.
We have huge respect for our produce, which are often served best with a minimum of cooking.
We think it’s weird that seafood is so expensive, it should be within economic reach – even though it’s “only “Thursday.
Value for money is not about dumping the prices but having a great experience with a small tap.
Our restaurant lies on Islands Brygge in Copenhagen’s old harbor area, and like an oyster bar in Boston or any other modern harbor tavern, we are straight forward regarding our way of cooking and our interior, which is raw, unpolished and urban.
In the restaurant you’ll find the original floor, concrete columns that shows you the warehouses’ story. We only use simple materials and without changing them much.
The Fat Pike is driven by Humanic, which, among others, has Torben Klitbo, the founder of Cofoco, as one of the owerns.
