HAFNARBÚÐIN

World cuisine restaurant
5/5
1 review

This typical, unpretentious bar is frequented by locals and fishermen alike. It's a typical address that offers a guaranteed end-of-the-world feeling! The à la carte menu features local specialties, ideal for a quick lunch, including a soup or lobster sandwich. You can also opt for a hamburger or hot dog, or ice cream for dessert. And if you're in a hurry, you can buy takeaway too. Mind you, the place is small and can get crowded fast.

PAKKHÚS

World cuisine restaurant €€
5/5
1 review

In this renovated warehouse installed on the port, a cuisine essentially made with local products in a rustic and atypical setting. Lobster is of course on the menu, but not only! The ground floor is a shop selling local products, the first floor is a pub to have a drink and a bite to eat but the real restaurant is on the second floor. The quantities are generous and hearty enough, as well as the plates nicely laid out. Modern Icelandic cuisine. A real treat!

KAFFI HORNIÐ

World cuisine restaurant
4/5
1 review

A charming place where you can have a hot chocolate as well as a hearty dish (fish, lamb, lobster), for a modest sum (according to local standards). Try the lobster pizza, as delicious as it is surprising! It's a Norwegian-style log cabin with a white wood interior, straw chairs in the restaurant room and blue-grey velvet sofas in the small adjoining lounge. Lace curtains on the small-paned windows. Potted herbs as cut flowers. A great setting!

NIELSEN RESTAURANT

World cuisine restaurant €€
2/5
1 review

A typical, authentic Icelandic address! The restaurant is housed in a pretty little Norwegian-style wooden house dating from 1944 (the town's oldest), with a slatted terrace. Tastefully decorated, it has recently changed owners and boasts a refined new menu, from the service to the perfect presentation of the plates. We really appreciate the warm atmosphere and pleasant service. Save room for dessert - it's delicious!

CAFÉ SUMARLÍNA

World cuisine restaurant €€

Located on the first floor of an old wooden building, decorated as if it were home, this small and cosy café is a great place to enjoy a hot Icelandic dish, or to taste the filled pancakes or the Belgian waffles. When the weather is fine, don't hesitate to eat on the terrace to watch the passers-by come and go. The reception is really adorable. The owner, Odinn, will be happy to bring you some books with photos and stories about his village. You can also glean a lot of information about the region.

BEITUSKÚRINN

Italian restaurant and pizzeria €€

Here's an unusual place, just the way we like it! Here, you'll have a breathtaking view of the fjords, and maybe even the chance to see whales in the distance. Unusual and welcoming, the place is decorated with old fishing tackle - you'd think you were in a fishing shack! On the plate, delicious pizzas, fried burgers, kebabs and fresh fish. The service is fast and friendly, a no-brainer. You'll also appreciate the terrace in fine weather. Mind you, it can sometimes be a little chilly inside.

ÁLFACAFÉ

A nice little address known as the "best restaurant in the area"! Here, we stop to eat well and at a reasonable price or simply to have a hot drink. The place is particularly popular with tourists returning from an excursion to Puffin Island. You can also enjoy a delicious fish soup, salted breads, homemade pastries. Very good and in addition, the decoration is composed of period instruments, objects of the sea... You can also buy some stones.

THE FILLING STATION

Italian restaurant and pizzeria €€

Are you passing through and looking for a late breakfast or a quick lunch? This small restaurant, located in a former gas station, offers an unusual setting for enjoying hot drinks, pancakes and tasty toast. It's also here that you can enjoy the only pizzas in the village (at the time of publishing this guide), as the bistro Skaftfell no longer offers them following its takeover. With its friendly atmosphere and gourmet dishes, this is a great place to stop for a bite to eat.

RESTAURANT HALI

World cuisine restaurant €€

This restaurant can accommodate up to 110 people, so you can be almost sure to find a seat. It serves tasty local cuisine, but here "less is more". Only a few dishes are offered a la carte, to focus on quality. For the smaller budget, it is possible to ask for the copious meat soup as a main course. Normally, you won't be hungry afterwards!
