PUBLIC HOUSE – GASTROPUB
Laugavegur 24 | #publichouse101

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.
This is the one category where we’ve had
no repeats from year-to-year, because
there are just so many Must-Try Dining
Experiences in Reykjavík! As fun as the
sheep heads and whale kebab may be,
we wanted to highlight something a little
more elegant this time around. Jómfrúin
is a place which wears its colonial past
proudly: the focus is on Danish open-
faced sandwiches (smørrebrød). But the
place is as Icelandic as it gets and walking
into Jómfrúin you are immediately
transported to 1985 Reykjavík. The place
attracts a slightly older, upper-middle-
class crowd (although they aren’t afraid
to tie off a few Danish schnapps on a
Saturday afternoon if the mood takes
them).
Best Jewellery Shop:
Orri Finn Design
best of r ey k jav ík
Lækjargata 4 Skólavörðustígur 17a
Tucked down in a semi-basement
on Skólavörðustígur, the shop is a
workspace and shop for Orri Finn’s
beautiful and unusual custom creations,
with such interesting ornaments as
cutting shears, fountain pen tips, moth
wings and straight blades. “I was walking
by the store in a hurry but I caught sight
of the pendants in the window and I
had to slow down,” one of our panellists
remarked. Indeed, they are head-turning
and remarkable items.
Best Must-Try Dining
Experience:
Shrimp Pyramid at Jómfrúin
Best Place To Read A Book:
Stofan
We’ll be honest, this wasn’t such an easy
one. There was pretty tough competition
between this beautiful, warm and
comfortable café in downtown Reykjavík
and the Reykjavík City Library, a mere
block away. The library is of course a
building full of books built with almost
the exclusive purpose of faciliating
reading, but Stofan has a certain je-ne-
sais-quoi that is so inviting to bringing
your own and sitting there for hours.
“The downstairs level is especially nice
to read in,” said one person. “It’s spacious
and cavernous but gets lots of light
and you can just sink into the vintage
couches.” Plus, with a great menu of
coffees, cakes and light meals, there’s
no need to relocate when your reading
energy starts to fade. We’ll be doing our
reading down there, thank you.
