Iceland that doesn't mean we don't
have fresh, locally-grown wasabi?
Wow—how wrong you are! Nordic
Wasabi is used all over the world and
luckily, they've got a shop downtown
where you can check the whole
operation out.
23. Bóksala Stúdenta
Sæmundargata 4
Located within the main building
of Háskóli Íslands, the university
bookstore runs the gamut from
speciality academic texts to classics,
new fiction, notebooks and much
more. Another plus? The on-site
coffee shop serves up what are
potentially the fairest priced coffees
in town, as does the Háskóli Íslands
cafeteria next door.
cultural scene. Takk fyrir.
18. Kaffibrennslan
Laugavegur 21
Located right smack in the centre of
town so you can easily pop in for a
quick one on your way, or stay and
drink the evening away, it’s just a
cool, casual, calm place with friendly
staff, good beers and tasty snacks.
Their happy hour is one of the biggest
secrets—you can't get much cheaper
for a beer, and you probably can't find
a better atmosphere to drink it in.
19. English Pub
Austurstræti 12
If it’s football you’re hankering for,
go to those that know it best: the
English. This pub serves up a dark
wooden Anglo-kitsch interior, a long
bar with plenty of staff, and loads
of comfortable seating, and, best
of all, a plethora of screens. Make
sure to yell loudly and berate Gylfi
Sigur!sson when he misses his
penalty—you wanted an authentic
pub experience, right?
Shopping
20. Memoria Collective
Hverfisgata 52
A tattoo parlour that does most
styles and does them f$%&-ing
well . That said, Ballí 's got some
particularly stellar neotraditional
and we must also shout out the
black and grey work of Emii Dun
(who has tattooed the author of this
map many times.) No favouritism
here, folks.
21. Aurum
Bankastræti 4
Aurum is a wild and woodsy brand
that still seems chic and modern.
The store, which occupies one of the
best spots on Laugavegur, serves up
finely-crafted pieces firmly based
in Icelandic nature. We're longtime
fans of the store, and were we to win
the lotter, we'd go there more.
22. Nordic Wasabi
Skólavör!ustígur 40
You thought just because we're in
Space Odyssey
Laugavegur 2
Reducing our consumption of new cloth-
ing is one of the biggest ways any indi-
vidual can do their part to heal our planet
and it’s this cosmic belief that powers
the stars behind Reykjavík’s newest sec-
ondhand store Space Odyssey. Along with
selling underused Earth-made garments,
the store also allows you to swap your
own atmospheric attire. And if that’s not
enough, the celestial haven also doubles
as a concert venue, having already host-
ed sets by galaxy-renowned artists like
Hermigervill, Kraftgalli and more. (Word
in the meteor belt is that Odysseus is on
his way.) AM
New In Town
24. Geisladiskabú! Valda
Laugavegur 64
Valda is by far the most obscure
shop in the city. You’ll find things
in this store that you won’t find
anywhere else in the world, from
black metal cassettes to Japanese
bootlegs. It's a true gem.
25. Húrra Reykjavík
Hverfisgata 18A
T h i s m i n i m a l i s t s tr e e t w e a r/
athleisure store serves up a mixed
selection of classic items and trendy
cuts. They were massively hyped
when they opened years ago and
have stayed hyped because they
know what they are doing and are
damn good at it.
