A list of every Happy Hour in 101 Reykjavík Download the FREE Grapevine Appy Hour app! Every happy hour in town in your pocket. Available in the App store and on the Android Market. Every year around the beginning of July, we make a BEST OF REYKJAVÍK ISSUE celebrating some of what makes Reykjavík-life worthwhile, posting some good entries into a hopefully neverending discussion. The primary purpose of BEST OF REYKJAVÍK is celebration! It’s about big-upping stuff, giving mad props to it and patting it on the shoulder. The following are some nice tips we pulled from BEST OF REYKJAVÍK 2012, which you can find in full at www.grapevine.is While Búllan is still a popular choice among Reykjavík’s burger lovers, there’s a new burger in town that simply can’t be ignored—its sheer tasty, meaty, juicy, burgery, bacony delicious- ness ensures its status as Reykjavík’s best burger bar none. We are of course talking about Grillmarket’s hamburger, what with all its glorious 220 grams of high quality, fire-grilled ground beef topped with crispy bacon sandwiched between freshly baked, mustard- smeared buns. Anyone who has tried it will attest that the Grillmarket-burger is leagues beyond any other burger in town, and at 1,890 ISK it comes at a fair price. The only downside is that it’s only available until 14:00 daily! BEST SHOP FOR 'HIGH FASHION': KRONKRON BEST POOL LAUGARDALSLAUG Best Of Reykjavík Mention this ad and you get 15% discount Voted best pizza in Reykjavík! Rauðarárstíg 39 105 Reykjavík tel. 577 3838 www.laluna.is We also deliver to hotels in Reykjavík Check us on tripadvisor.com Swimming is a favourite pastime in Ice- land. Most towns around the country have a swimming pool and Reykjavík has seven of them. They do in fact all have their charm, but we think it’s safe to call Laugardalslaug the best pool. Why? Because it’s huge, it has a bunch of hot tubs at varying temperatures, it has a killer waterslide and the stadium seating blocks out the cold northerly winds, which are usually accompanied by sunny rays. Not to mention, it was remodelled last year and it is more beautiful, relaxing and funner than ever.

Those with a fashion fetish will tell you that KronKron offers “the only proper selection of current interna- tional designers in Reykjavík,” with one even remarking: “I would have no idea what I’d do without them! They are the only ones actively importing new clothes!” Go there for clothes by labels such as Marc Jacobs, Wood Wood and Vivienne Westwood, shoes by Eley Kishimoto and Sonia Rykiel and of course the storeowners’ newly launched label KRONbyKRONKRON. Of course it all comes with a price, but we are told tourists can get tax-free rebates of the stuff, which ultimately renders it pretty cheap. BEST BURGER: GRILLMARKET
