When you think of fun things to do on a
weekend night in Reykjavík, you probably
think about waiting in line for an hour to
get into B5, where you can meet fun and cool
people while spending your entire month’s
pay on shots. If that’s not really your scene,
though, you could also check out the vibrant
music and fashion scene in the city, which
is exactly what we did. On Friday, October
26th, we spent the night with arguably two
of the most famous and talented young art-
ists in Iceland today, JóiPé and Króli, as they
played at the Inklaw fashion show in Gamla
Bíó, where the minimalist streetwear brand
premiered its new line, the ‘Onyx Winter
Collection.’ If you’ve been living under a rock
for the past year or so, and don’t know who
JóiPé and Króli are, we suggest you Google
“B.O.B.A.” If you don’t understand why ev-
eryone loves them after watching that, well,
we can’t help you.

Great place to see
the northern lights!
Lovely Restaurant with a Stunning View! We stopped @
Thrastalundur on our way to Geysir (40 min away). Everything about this
place was just magical - the food, the coffee, the view and the team. Highly
recommend for anyone who wants to rest in a very picturesque scenery
and enjoy truly Icelandic hospitality! – Aga J. – Tripadvisor.
Food was so good, we came back twice! We really enjoyed eating at
Þrastalundur Restaurant. We tried the lamb soup, fresh brook trout, and leg
of lamb. It was a Sunday, and they had a lovely two-piece band playing. The
staff really made us feel at home, and gave us some travel suggestions for
the Golden Circle. We enjoyed it so much, we came back the next night for
pizza, soup, and beer. – Kim H. – Tripadvisor.
More than outstanding pizza Lovely restaurant situated in very
seenic spot on a river bank. In summer one can see people fly fishing.
The service was very good. Food was good and the atmosphere good.
Will definately go there a.s.a.p. Old but renovated in good taste. Brunch
yummie. Thank you. I loved it – Sigga_Hallgr. – Tripadvisor.
