HISTORIC EXHIBITION RESTAURANT • SHOP • ACTIVITIES
The Saga Museum brings the Viking age to life. There you’ll walk
among some of Iceland’s most famous heroes and infamous villains
portrayed in their defining moments; the Viking settlement in 874,
Leif the Lucky’s discovery of America, the founding of the world’s
first parliament and the epic clan feuds that marked the settlement.
This is as close as you’ll ever get to meeting Vikings in the flesh.
Saga Museum • Grandagarður 2 • 101 Reykjavík
Tel.: (+354) 511 1517 • Open: Daily from 10 to 18
www.sagamuseum.is
Try on the clothes and
weapons of the Viking
age. Great fun and a
great photo opportunity.
The shop has a wide
selection of traditional
Viking handiwork,
souvenirs and clothing.
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 following are some nice tips we pulled from BEST OF REYKJAVÍK 2014
which you can read in full at www.grapevine.is.
Korean-inflected gastropub K-bar offers
an unbeatable Beer + Korean Fried
Chicken happy hour combo for 990 ISK.
If Korean chicken isn’t your style then
they also offer a Beer + Calamari combo
(1290 ISK) and a Beer + Cauliflower
combo (1290 ISK). The 2 for 1 takeaway
deal at Bergsson was a close contender
but we’re suckers for cheap alcohol and
sweet-and-spicy Korean food.
Best Barber Shop:
Barber
best of r ey k jav ík
Laugavegur 74 Laugavegur 66
Barber is a relatively new barber shop, in
(of course) a new Laugavegur hotel. They
put a welcome focus on the experience
as much the haircut—along with a top-
class trim, you can get a drink from the
bar, and browse through a selection of
vinyl records provided by the Reykjavík
Record Store. “It’s a really nice all-round
experience,” one freshly cut consultant
noted. “They do unisex haircuts, and it’s
small and intimate—there are only three
chairs, so it doesn’t feel crowded and
overwhelming.” So whether you’re after
a #normcore short back ‘n’ sides, fancy
bangs, a geometric beard trim or a hipster
combover, Barber will hit the spot.

Best Mural / Street Art:
Guido Van Helten at Grandi
For all the great galleries and art
museums we have in this city, far too
little is said about the incredible amount
and quality of street art that fills our
city. While the competition was tough,
our entire panel was smitten by the
stunning works of Guido Van Helten on
the whitewashed buildings in Grandi.
Overlooking empty construction pits, his
charcoal sketch-styled paintings are both
realistic and fantastical, with the tight
close-up faces creating a hyper-sensuous
juxtaposition to the industrial rubble
beneath. It’s not only incredible art, but a
moving sight altogether.
