For breakfast or brunch:

Try Café Toqqorfik for a Greenlandic twist on coffee and pastries. This place is located just on the old colonial harbour offering a view over the harbour and fjord sorounding Nuuk.

For the bigger selection or more traditional brunch I would go for Pascucci Cafe, Katuaq or Esmarelda.
