Reykjavik

Restaurants and Cafes in Reykjavik:

  • Reykjavik Roasters- trendy coffee shop, you can find several around town.
  • Lebowski Bar- every kind of White Russian you can imagine and super themed to the Big Lebowski, a very fun place.
  • Bergsson Mathus- quaint, trendy little spot. Cozy dinner atmosphere, serves breakfast, too. Ordered a full fish to share for dinner and a great bottle of wine.
  • Kol Restaurant- really cool cocktails and good food. Expensive, as is everything else.
  • Rok- right next to Hallgrímskirkja, tried reindeer here. Very cute and cozy wooden house with grass growing on the roof.

Other activities:

  • Harpa Concert Hall- beautiful architecture.

  • The Blue Lagoon- of course. 

  • Hallgrímskirkja- beautiful church with a large organ in the center of town. Worth it to head up to the top for the views.
