Benedorm
Pósthússtræti 9
I know what you’re thinking: the
name of new “fancy fast food” joint
Benedorm is a typo of Benidorm, the
Spanish resort. Such suspicions are
enhanced by its tropical pixelated
clip-art sign and brightly coloured
decor. But Google reveals that “Bene-
dorm” is actually a U.S. drug contain-
ing melatonin. Hmm. Whether this
café-bar is a covert post-internet
New Aesthetic installation or not, they
have well-priced burgers and snacks,
and 690 ISK beers all day long, so
we’re on board. JR
New In Town
23
Swedish outerwear brand Fjällräven's
classic rucksack is so durable that
they’ve been known to become
family heirlooms, passed down to
kids by parents who, presumably,
grew up and got briefcases and
fancy handbags instead. You'll see
their duds adoring the backs of many
Reykjavík-ites today.
26. Rauðhetta & Úlfurinn
Skólavörðustígur 8
In a sense Rauðhetta & Úlfurinn
is a Reykjavík classic. It ’s been
around for over a decade, and the
service is congenial without being
overbearing. People are loyal to their
favourite hairdresser, meaning some
of them have long waiting lists, but
pop in and try your luck.
unusual foods, antique postcards,
lópapeysur, and the occasional
religious booth filled with literature
and pamphlets.
20. Omnom Chocolate
Hólmaslóð 4
You can see the whole process by
which Omnom’s chocolate bars are
made here, from when they receive
the cocoa beans to when they wrap
them in their beautiful packing.
Then you can buy some for the trip
home.
21. Mál og Menning
Laugavegur 18
Mál og Menning has three levels
with great curated displays of the
latest titles, and for visitors there’s
an area dedicated to selling recent
and classic Icelandic literature in
English. The café is a haunt of local
writers, and it hosts occasional book
launches and readings, too.
22. Lucky Records
Rauðarárstígur 10
Lucky Records is probably the biggest
record shop in Iceland, with shelves
upon shelves of new and used vinyl
and CDs on offer. They have a small
stage where local and visiting bands
sometimes perform, and expert staff
that can always help you find what
you’re looking for.
23. Farmers And Friends
Hólmaslóð 2 & Laugavegur 37
If you want to pick up an Icelandic
sweater, peruse the Farmers Market
outlet. Their wares c ombine Nordic
style with a fresh aesthetic, providing
you with a modern take on traditional
pieces.
24. Tulipop
Skólavörðustígur 43
Tulipop serves up everything from
lamps to wallets all covered in the
cutest monsters you’ll ever see. The
Icelandic brand’s flagship store is
an explosion of pastels and neons.
Stop here for gifts, souvenirs, or just
a little adorable pick-me-up.
