Curious
Hafnarstræti 4
Watch out, henny—there’s a
new queer bar on the scene,
and it’s decked out in tropical
apparel. Serving up cocktails,
coffee and—starting in Au-
gust—a vegan café, Curious
is a one-stop-shop for what-
ever scene you belong to.
If that’s not snazzy enough,
they often have surprise
cocktail deals, DJs every
weekend, and a surprisingly
cosy smoking area. Werk it.

never know what you’re going to find
at this Salvation Army outlet. The stark
store, covered with clothes of all
shapes and colours, is a delight for
all senses that’ll have you alternating
between, “Who would throw that
away?” to “Who would buy that?”
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.
scene by storm upon opening in
2018, with its eclectic streetwear
selection. They have designers that
no one else has, designers that you
wouldn’t know before going there.
20. Fischer
Fischersund
More art installation than regular
store, the "Sigur Rós shop" is an
aesthetic environment with a
soothing soundtrack, sweet scents
floating in the air, and a natural,
earthy colour palette. They sell a
range of amazing things, from hand-
picked tea, to artworks and records.
21. IÐA Zimsen
Vesturgata 2a
This peaceful spot is equal parts
café and bookstore, so you can get
a coffee and a snack while you leaf
through your purchases. Everything
there is interesting. If the magazines
fail, people-watching never does.
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.
23. Farmers And Friends
Hólmaslóð 2 & Laugavegur 37
If you want to pick up an Icelandic
sweater, peruse the Farmers Market
outlet. Their wares combine Nordic
style with a fresh aesthetic, providing
you with a modern take on traditional
pieces.
24. CNTMP
Laugavegur 12b
This sleek and minimal streetwear
boutique occupies an enviable spot
on the main Laugavegur strip. An
acronym for “contemporary,” the
shop’s name describes its concept—
the store will sell limited garments by
streetwear brands.
