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 2015
which you can read in full at www.grapevine.is.
We went over all the arguments we’ve
heard against Sandholt: It’s too touristy,
the lines are too long, the prices are too
high, gossip about the management, all
of it. But at the end of the day no one in
Reykjavík can touch Sandholt. They’ve
use the same oven since it opened in 1920
and it’s run by a fourth-generation baker,
so the pedigree is there. The sourdough is
the best and pastries and confectionaries
are miles above the rest. They even have
great ice cream and reasonable catering
options. Try the amazing danishes with
the real fruity fillings, the strawberry
tart, the proper eclairs, they’re the real
deal. It may be swamped by tourists but
you simply won’t find better.
Best Second Hand Shop
Hertex
best of r ey k jav ík
Laugavegur 36 Garðastræti 6
Okay, we gotta start by clarifying
something: the difference between a
vintage shop and a secondhand store. One
is not better than the other by nature, but
they are very different in terms of price,
quality and overall store selection. For a
long time, this category has been handed
out to a vintage shop (good quality,
prices that reflect this quality, and a
limited curated selection). Now it’s time
to give it back. At Hertex, the Salvation
Army’s shop on Garðastræti, you get
the best real secondhand experience
in town. “You have to dig a bit to strike
gold, and they have great stuff and it’s
actual secondhand prices,” enthused one
panelist. “One time, I found an actual
Dior jacket, and it cost nothing!” That’s
a really lucky strike, but it’s that kind of
you-never-know place. The store is clean,
quaint and run by a couple of sweet,
friendly grandmothers who keep the
place ship-shape. We love it.

Best Graveyard To Hang Out In
Fossvogskirkjugarður
This year’s winner of the best graveyard
to hang out in is Fossvogskirkjugarður—a
wonderful, hidden spot nestled at the
back of Öskjuhlíð. Whilst we also love
the history and layout of previous winner
Hólavallagarður, Fossvogskirkjugarður
has a wilder and less cultivated
atmosphere, and less people around.
“It’s a graveyard that’s full of life,” one
panellist said. “The trees and wild plants
grow right between the graves, so it’s like
you’re in a forest as well as a graveyard.
There are lots of paths to explore, and
little secret places. Sometimes you really
don’t see many other people, so you can
feel pleasantly alone there, except for all
the bunny rabbits running around your
feet.”
