About

Jailhouse CPH is one of Copenhagen’s most unique gay bars, blending fun with a quirky twist. Located in the city center on Studiestræde, this lively venue immerses you in a full prison-themed experience—think bars, handcuffs, and even seating in “cells.” It’s like stepping into your cheekiest daydream, but with better drinks!

This basement bar is famous for its bartenders, all decked out in police uniforms, serving cocktails with playful names like ""Blue Lights"" and ""Handcuffs."" With happy hour running daily from 3 PM to 9 PM, it’s the perfect place to kick back and enjoy a few drinks on the cheap before your night out heats up.

The vibe is always friendly and warm, and they host themed nights to keep things fresh—so expect plenty of eye candy and fun conversations with locals and visitors alike. Whether you're catching up with mates or making new ones, Jailhouse’s laid-back atmosphere, combined with its cheeky décor, makes for a memorable night out.

For those who fancy a meal, the upstairs restaurant is open on select nights, offering a cozy spot to fuel up before diving into the action below. A must-visit spot for anyone exploring Copenhagen's vibrant LGBTQ+ scene!

Great place if you like to be a heavy passive smoker. I went a few times, it is WAY too crowded, and the eyes and lungs BURN from the amount of passive cigarette smoke there. Ventilation is crap… or non existent. During winter it gets worse. They claim they have it but that is not what my eyes and throat tell me, not my clothes and coughing next day. I can’t even believe how bartenders don’t develop ling cancer from working there. It is a total disrespect with non-smokers. They should rename the bar to smoke gas chambers. Bartenders are often non stop working to be even be nice, I guess they always lack bartenders to the amount of people and the poor working environment. They have pictures of the past bartenders in the bathroom, in a tribute of those who served their duty there… like they died in combat. It would be a great place if it was non smoking. The atmosphere is non existent, no places to sit unless you arrive when the bar opens… people don’t talk to you unless you have your own group. If you come alone to town to visit copenhagen and you expect to meet people there, you will be disappointed.

Stinks of cigarettes, clearly the owners don’t care about the health and safety of staff and patrons. Clothes will wreak walking in here

I absolutely love this bar and I think the bartenders are super friendly. I would give less stars because of the smoking but it’s a general thing in Copenhagen bars. Would love if there was more fans or ventilation for those of us who don’t smoke. The music is always SO GOOD so keep that up.
