Petersen Svítan
This luxurious rooftop bar recently opened
on the top floor of Gamla Bíó, one of
Iceland’s more decorated cultural hubs,
and has so far only been advertised through
word of mouth. Highly stylized, like a
designated meeting point for Reykjavík’s
petite bourgeoisie and the 101 hipster
crowd (hipsters are still a thing, right?), the
fully stocked bar will also serve food from
October and onwards. Come for the great
view and happy hour, stay for the talkative
bartenders and Ölvisholt’s specially crafted
Petersen beer (it’s a hoppy pilsner with
fruity overtones and a flavourful finish).
