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 never-ending
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 2014 which you can read in full at www.grapevine.is.
With a fantastic brunch menu well suited
to omnivores and vegans alike, picking
the Coocoo’s Nest was a no-brainer for
us. With a great selection of mouth-
watering sandwiches and Italian dishes,
the real cream of the crop is their whole-
wheat maple syrup and strawberries
pancakes. Add crunchy bacon, and you’ll
be smiling for the rest of the week. Be
advised, you may have to wait a spell to
get a table as the restaurant has already
earned itself a loyal following.

If you’re at all into second hand
shopping, there is no place you’ll enjoy
more than Spúútnik. It has a wide variety

denim and printed shirts, and leather
jackets in all of Reykjavík. Items are also
pre-selected and arranged neatly so
you’re not going to have to spend hours
going through piles of junk!

Osushi is a unique
rest aurant in Iceland.
The met hod of dining involves
snatching small plates from
a conveyor belt. Pricing is
distinguished by the color
and pattern of the plate –
most range between
230 - 440 ISK.

Everything off the con vey or
belt is tasty and if you don´t
really fancy sushi, you can
instead choose for ex ample
teriyaki chicken, noodle
salad, tempura and desserts.

The vibe in Osushi is friendly
and relaxed. The restaurant is
located almost next door to
Althingi (the parliament) which
is in the heart of the city.

BEST ROMANTIC WALK:
GRÓTTA
For the third year in a row, our panellists
deemed Grótta the best romantic
walk. Although we don’t know how
many of them have actually taken their
significant others to Grótta, it’s easy to
see why it keeps taking the cake. Grótta
is an island at the tip of Seltjarnarnes,
which features a picturesque lighthouse.
If your timing is good, the tide will be
low and you can stroll over hand-in-
hand, take a seat on the rocks and look
out across the ocean whilst dreaming
about what’s on your horizon. Do note,
however, that the island is off limits
during nesting season.
