Masken Bar & Café

عن هذا المكان Masken Bar & Café

Masken Bar & Café is one of the anchor venues of Studiestræde — the street that forms the geographic and social centre of Copenhagen's gay neighbourhood. The bar has been operating in this location for decades and has the character of a place that knows its role in the local scene: a welcoming, unpretentious neighbourhood bar that serves the community without pretence or theme. The clientele is a mix of Danish gay men and women who have been coming for years and international visitors drawn by the street's reputation. Masken is less overtly high-energy than Never Mind but has the specific social warmth of a bar where you can have a conversation — the music is at a level that permits it, and the staff have the relaxed confidence of people who have been running a successful neighbourhood bar for a long time. On Copenhagen Pride week, Studiestræde becomes a pedestrianised celebration and Masken's outdoor tables are a front-row seat to the action.
