I H G F E D C B A Get the bigger, more detailed version of The Reykjavík Grapevine City Map at your nearest hotel or guesthouse, with selections from our Best-Of awards, vital info, downtown bus stops and a wider view of the city. Downtown & Harbour District Dining 1. Blackbox Pizza Borgartún 26 Blackbox is a solid competitor for best pizza pie in the city. Thin crust, inventive toppings , deliver y— what else could you ask for? We'd particularly recommend the Parma Rucola, which serves up all the parma ham goodness you could wish for. For those journeying outside the city, they've also got a location in Akureyri. 2. Chikin Ingólfsstræti 2 This ain’t your mama's KFC. No, Chikin—Reykjavík’s first dedicated h ot c hic ke n a n d ba o jo int — manages to be at once both totally sophisticated foodie cuisine and also food that’ll definitely fill the hole in your soul you usually quench with a spicy Twister. So grab some chicken with pickled daikon, shiitake mushrooms, miso mayo and lots of other delicacies. 3. Hosiló Hverfisgata 12 A newcomer on the block who has certainly made a big stir! Hosiló is a small spot—seating around 30 patrons at full capcity—that offers an eclectic rotating menu of local fresh food. The offerings feature meals from around the world, from French cuisine to Northern Africa goodness, and much more. 4. Kaffi Laugalækur Laugarnesvegur 74a For many a young parent, the cafe stop at the end of a long stroll is the proverbial pot of gold. Kaffi Lækur is especially popular with new parents, with a special kids’ corner for crawlers and drawers. The generously topped chicken and pesto ‘litla gula hænan’ and the ‘shawaramabake’ are our top lunch picks. Also, if you're keto, don't miss 'em, 5. Brau# & Co Frakkastígur 16 First off—don't miss Brau! & Co's pretzel croissants unless you really don't want to have a spiritual experience. We also swear by their “snu!ur”—cinnamon bread rolls smothered with a sugary glaze. They take it a step further and stuff the classics with blueberries and whatnot, eliciting inappropriate satisfied moans. Get there early to snatch a warm one. 6. Snaps %órsgata 1 Year after year, regardless of how many restaurants open and close, Snaps remains a timeless classic. Be it lunch, date-night dinner, lazy weekend brunches or a boisterous Christmas work party, Snaps is the perfect venue for a boatload of memories. Steady standbys include the deeply savoury onion soup (with a union of its own we suspect), the house-made fries with crispy rosemary that begs to be a meal on its own, and a textbook crème brûlée topped with an envious snap. 7. Hlemmur Mathöll Hlemmur Once a bus station and now a bustling food hall—we love a repurposed space. Hlemmur Mathöll is a classic in the Reykjavík dining scene, with everything from Vietnamese street food to delicious gelato to old school Italian pizza present. Yum. 8. Dragon Dim Sum Bergsta!astræti 4 For those of us longing for dim sum in Reykjavík, cravings have often had to be satisfied with daydreams of visits past to dim sum houses of Chinatowns abroad. But then Dragon Dim Sum arrived with their fare, which is the perfect marriage between Icelandic ingredients and labouring of Asian dim sum passion. Don't miss their bao or shao mai, and don't worry, their carrot vegan dumplings are also sublime. 9. Lamb Street Food Grandagar!ur 7 Pure Icelandic lamb with a middle eastern twist—that’s what you’ll get at this juicy local eatery where pure kebab is served up with no processed meat. For all you vegans though, never fear, the fresh made salads and hummus are equally wowing. This ain’t your regular kebab spot. 10. Laundromat Austurstræti 9 Have you ever wanted to have lunch and do your laundry in a public place? You’re in luck. The Laundromat Cafe on Austurstræti is open (again) for business. Whether you want brunch, a sandwich, or a burger, they have a quality selection of food made to order. Their brunch ain't nothing to scoff at either, 11. Nauthóll Nauthólsvegur 106 Just behind the University of Reykjavík overlooking the Nauthólsvík geothermal beach is Nauthóll, the definition of a hidden summertime gem. The restaurant is one of those places that downtown Reykjavík rats might call “too far away,” but with the advent of public scooters, you can arrive there in style in but 15 minutes. Without hyperbole, there probably isn’t a better outdoor view in the city than this place—and their Scandinavian fare is good too. Drinking 12. Priki# Bankastræti 12 Priki! is the bar version of the “I’m going to bed early tonight vs. me at 3 a.m.” meme. At 22:00 you’ll have a bunch of regulars relaxing at the bar sipping brews, but arrive at 3:00 and it’s Project X. Their outdoor smoking area should be applauded too. Hang out long enough and you’ll be sure to buddy up and find an afterparty. 13. Röntgen Hverfisgata 12 If the cancellation of l iterally e v e r y t h i n g i s d a m p i n g y o u r glamorous rock and roll style, Röntgen at Hverfisgata 12 will cure what ails you. This place—a relative newcomer—is already a stalwart in the bar scene, with a stellar atmosphere, great drinks and a lineup of the best DJs in Iceland. Just remember to raise a glass to the good doctor Wilhelm Röntgen (who discovered x-rays) while sipping your tipple. 14. Húrra Tryggvagata 22 Húrra is BACK! ARE YOU SERIOUS? YES, WE ARE! After a despairing absense from the local scene, the beloved favourite has returned with a vengence. Seriously—in the few weeks they've been open, the bar/ venue has already had shows from heavyweights like Skrattar, Skóffin and Mannveira. Stop by for vibes, alochol and other fun things like that you know. Also, their bathroom renovation is pretty crazy. 15. Ve#ur Klapparstígur 33 This charming, low-key, hole-in-the- wall serves up some great cocktails and a dedicated crowd that has grabbed the heart of the Grapevine, even though we are a magazine and not humans. If you feel fine relaxing and chatting, it’s still a nice and sophisticated bar, but they've also got an edge. Sometimes they play punk music. \m/ 16. Íslenski Barinn Ingólfsstræti 1a Of the many nation-themed drinking establishments in Reykjavík, The Icelandic Bar is the only one that is also a restaurant. Go there at night and maybe you'll meet an elf or Björk or something—that's all people know about Iceland anyway. 17. Mál og Menning Laugavegur 18b Wait, a new bar/music venue? Yup! And you thought the pandemic had destroyed all culture in this town. But never fear—Bókabú!ir Máls og Menningar is here. There's live music most nights, from DJs to jazz, and during the day, the legendary Bókin is operating from the basement. Seriously—we anticipate this place will be a game-changer in the local cultural scene. Takk fyrir.
