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 2013 which you can read in full at www.grapevine.is
This little Italian-style gelato shop in Gran-
di has been open for just over a month but
it already has locals frothing at the mouth
and standing in long lines for a couple of
scoops. That’s no coincidence: The menu
is an ever-changing smorgasbord of
crowd-sourced flavours picked by Face-
book fans. They serve freshly baked waffle
cones. And the staff outfits are charm-
ing. Yup, Valdís is just the ticket to bring-
ing a bit of sunshine to the cold and grey
summer we’ve been not enjoying lately. We
look forward to seeing Valdís thrive and
prosper; thank you, Valdís.

BEST CHEAP THRILL:
THE CITY LIBRARY
Best Of Reykjavík
This was a really strong winner as the
library is not only a thrilling adventure of
knowledge, but it’s also as cheap as you
can get–free (lateness fees not included)!
You can only take items out if you are a
registered resident of the city, but every-
one is welcome to browse, dawdle, skim,
analyse and delve deeply into their vast
collection of books of all types, in several
different languages. There’s also a great AV
collection, particularly for Icelandophiles,
and the Reykjavík Museum of Photography
is on the top floor. We told you so.

Okay, okay we admit it, we’ve given Hressó
a lot of flak over the years! It was mostly
about how much Nickelback they played,
but we can’t deny that we kind of love that
place. It’s charming and entertaining, and
has the unquestionable best spot to spy
on passersby in the form of the booths in
the window that skirts Austurstræti. Get
there early to watch your acquaintances
and enemies drag their asses to work (or
do the walk of shame), or head there after
work to feast on the evening’s brewing
debauchery.
