Food Scene
This café has great coffee and great food. They're kid-friendly as well and the whole place just have a very "Nørrebro"-feel to it.
Next to it is Nørrebros bryghus which is one of Denmarks best mikrobreweries. There's something for everyone - I'm not usually a beer drinker, but these are delicious.

Sightseeing
The iconic little mermaid statue which is one of the things Copenhagen is most famous for. I guess you can't travel here, without seeing the little mermaid. If you decide to go and the weather's good take a stroll down the harbour "Langelinje" and have an icecream - it's kind of a tradition.
