comes to size and the quality and
variety of produce on offer, as well
as their lengthy opening hours.
21. Rammagerðin
Skólavörðustígur 12 & other
locations
This long-established crafts and
design store has been running since
1940, since way before Icelandic
design was cool. It’s a fascinating
store, loaded with interesting
objects and trinkets. While it might
look like a tourist shop, it’s been
there for seventy or eighty years. So
even if it is a tourist shop, it must be
a good one.
22. Red Cross
Laugavegur 12b & more
There are a handful of Red Cross
locations in Reykjavík, the most
popular of which is a small store on
Laugavegur. Here you’ll be able to
find some pretty cool and unique
stuff for cheap prices.
23. Geysir
Skólavörðustígur 7 & 16
The presence of the aesthetically
im m a c ul a te G ey s ir s e e m s to
continually grow in Reykjavík ,
especially since they launched their
own clothing line and accompanying
catalogue. There are two locations
to drop by on Skólavörðustigur, each
with a differently styled interior. It
might be a little pricey, but you’ll get
something high-quality for sure.
24. Húrra Reykjavík
Hverfisgata 50 & 78
Many credit this store with Reykjavík’s
sudden obsession with sneakers,
with people camping outside the
store to get their hands on a new pair.
Needless to say, this store is shaping
fashion in downtown Reykjavík.

recommend the lamb kofte wrap: it’s
to die for.
Drinking
11. Veður
Klapparstígur 33
This beautifully designed new bar
looks really fancy, but it has a laid-
back atmosphere, serves a great
selection of cocktails and beer, and
plays excellent music. The weekend
nighttime crowd is a bit American
Psycho, but that’s not without its
charm.
12. Húrra
Tryggvagata 22
Húrra has been awarded Grapevine’s
coveted “Best All-Around Bar.” It’s a
great place to go anytime for almost
any reason—whether it’s weeknight
drinks, dancing with your friends
or catching a gig in their excellent
music and events programme. They
even have karaoke downstairs!
13. Skúli Craft Bar
Aðalstræti 9
A cool environment in a great
location, Skúli has a strong presence
in this category with its vast selection
of brews, although the prices can
be steep for the serving size. It has
Cards Against Humanity, and there’s
one bartender who sometimes plays
death metal.
14. Pablo Discobar
Veltusund 1
This fancy-ass cocktail place is
one of the more upscale clubs in
Reykjavík. It has 70s tiki lounge/
Boogie Nights décor, and the
throwback disco music is on point.
15. Slippbarinn
Mýrargata 2
This standard go-to bar for cocktails
holds its own as far as the mixing
game goes, with a unique menu
and highly skilled bartenders to
shake them up. The bar itself is a
beautifully designed space with
a gorgeous view, right in the Old
Harbour. It closes on the early side,
but it’s great to start out there.
16. Mikkeller & Friends
Hverfisgata 12
T his p lace has a unique and
constantly rotating selection of
beers from Mikkeller and other
carefully picked craft breweries,
knowledgeable bartenders, and it’s
located upstairs from Hverfisgata
12, so you get good weekend DJs,
fancy bar snacks and pizzas.
17. Stofan
Vesturgata 3
When the name of the place literally
translates to “the living room,”
it’s pretty much expected to be a
very cosy place to kick back with
some late-afternoon, early-evening
drinks. All their beers and wines on
happy hour from 4pm until 8pm, and
it’s a lovely central location with a
dim basement and an airy first floor.
18. Bravó
Laugavegur 22
Bravó is Húrra’s sister bar. They have
Icelandic beers on tap and DJs at
the weekend, but one of the best
things about Bravó is its lengthy
happy hours—all the way from 11am
to 8pm, in fact.
Shopping
19. Hrím
Laugavegur 25
Hrím is a design store that ’s
also the go-to for fancy cutlery,
crockery, and kitchen items. They
offer a selection of international
products, with a strong Icelandic
presence scattered throughout.
Have a browse—even if you don’t
even cook much, you’ll feel like you
need everything, because it’s all so
beautiful.

shoulders above the rest when it
