The Reykjavík Grapevine is proud to
present: The Best Of Reykjavík 2016!
Starting this summer, we’re publish-
ing our Best Of magazines to help you,
our beloved readers, find the very best
places this little city has to offer. You
can use the info to plan your schedule,
or even as a fun experiment to see how
your tastes align with those of ours.
The issue you’re now holding is
geared toward the summer months,
and features guides to help you make
the most of Reykjavík’s long, and
occasionally sunny, summer days.
There’ll be a new Best of Reykjavík
magazine to accompany each season,
with our next one coming out in the
fall. Don’t laugh—there are more
than two seasons in Iceland, even if it
feels like there’s only “awful winter”
and “construction season.”
We recommend perusing this
issue and making a list of your own
must-sees, must-trys and must-
tastes. Perhaps where you’re staying
is closer to one of our Runners Up, or a
promising Newcomer. Map it out—we
don’t intend for you to be running all
over just to try our favourite burger or
art museum. Make a note of the names
of places that jump out at you as you
read, on the off chance that you might
pass by one of them on your travels.
The list is our gift to you, but we val-
ue your feedback. If you find you disagree
with one of our suggestions or you find
a hidden gem of your own, shoot us an
email at bestof@grapevine.is.
Thanks for your attention—and
if this is the first publication of ours
you’ve seen, be sure to pick up a copy
of our magazine around town; The
Reykjavík Grapevine, or check us out
online at www.grapevine.is.
