Reykjavík Grapevine - 29.07.2011, Blaðsíða 52
Places We Like Sægreifinn Down by the Reykjavík harbour, Sægreifinn fish shop and restaurant is a pretty unique establishment. The menu features various fish dishes (including most of the “crazy Icelandic food” you’ll want to tell your friends you had) and a rich portion of some pretty good lobster soup. Good food and welcoming service make this place a must-try. Geirsgötu 8 1 Nonnabiti Delicious and relatively cheap considering how massive and filling their sandwiches are. The Luxury Sub, with salty pork, veggies, sauce and pineapple is a brilliant combination of flavours for late-night munchies. It’s just as satisfying and filling during more civilized hours as well. And the service is fast if you’re in a rush. Hafnarstræti 9 8 Núðluhúsið Although hardly breaking new ground in Thai cuisine, Núðluhúsið is a safe bet for a cheap, generously portioned, tasty enough meal. You can expect fresh ingredients and fast, courteous service. So if you're wondering which of the many Thai restaurants to choose from on a low budget, we recommend Núðluhúsið. Laugavegur 59 9 English Pub True to its name, the English Pub offers a wide variety of lager on tap and a whiff of that genuine UK feel. You may also try their famous "wheel of fortune" with the chance of winning up to a metre of beer with a single spin. Cheers!

They are located by the seaside with a spectacular view of the mountains to the north. They are located in a newly built house at Skúlagata 17. Closed on Sundays. Skúlagata 17 7Tíu Dropar If you’re sick of all the arty cafés, filled with Sigur Rós wannabes and their Macs, browsing Facebook, go to Tíu Dropar. It’s a back-to-basics Icelandic café that hasn’t changed their interior since the 60s. Really proves the saying ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.’ Plus, the coffee’s great. Laugavegur 27 6 Á Næstu Grösum Á Næstu Grösum is an all vegetarian restaurant right in the city centre that features a friendly atmosphere and fair prices. There is always at least one vegan soup on offer and the daily special portions are big and always satisfying. There is even some organic wine on offer. Laugavegur 20B 2 Kaffismiðja Íslands Old fashioned charm is the style of Kaffismiðja, in everything from the decor to the coffee grinders. Off the beaten track, this popular coffee shop is a great spot to sit and read or have a chat with friends. The owners Ingbjörg and Sonja take great pride in the beans they use and the coffee is top notch. You can buy fresh grounds too, in case you just cant get enough.
