From a shed-size brick building is Koba, somewhat ticked behind an inner courtyard of central Aarhus, a micro-bakery that prides itself off using local, sustainable and seasonal produce. "Micro" is no joke, every inch of this space is filled with sacks of grain, the shelves stacked with a remarkably wide selection of sweet and savoury deliciousness. From chocolate and walnut swirls to macerated rhubarb galettes, sourdough brioche to goat-stuffed quiche: find the menu of the day scribbled in white ink upon the only window that also happens to double up as the serving counter. 

Capo is a neighbourhood-beloved wine and food bar dolling out the most drinkable natural vino and serving a small-plate menu of flavour hits. On our menu? Devilled eggs serving with brown butter mustard and topped with chives and crispy breadcrumbs, a creamy fish pie with blue lingon and leek and a hasselback potato doused in sheep milk yoghurt and trout caviar. It's no wonder that this orange-fronted building has people trickling in and out at all hours of the day. 

Much like its sister counterpart, Osteria 98, Bodega 66 is a drop by and hope there is a table type of spot. Oranj sour's - mixed with aperol, white rum and lime - are no sooner served than ordered again, flocks of the Aarhus locals trickle into the street-side terrace and plates of nocerella olives are rushed from the bottle-lined counter. A tartare with minced beef or veg is a snack-menu staple, though if it's a full meal you're hankering for, head to the Bodega community dinner. Every Wednesday the bar transforms into a social gathering where you can nab a home-cooked meal, a caña beer or a glass of Depanneur wine for only 89DKK. 

A concept store doubling up as the go-to Aarhus coffee destination. With a space designed by the interior design score of, CF Møller – Scandinavia's leading architecture firm – the white-painted, teal-shutter exteriors of the rectangular, unprepossessing building give way to an inside feast of design, There's smooth wood, stainless steel countertops, and clean white shelves decked with homeware and accessories. Shop Róhe, Homme, Frama, to name but a few, before siting down for a BMO and oat cortado.
