Berat Y.Berat YARDIMCI: The best Hostel in the Reykjavik City. Very commodius, stylish, cozy and clean and the location is just by the Atlantic Ocean. Totally Toplofty!

AlessioAlessio: Nice and hip place, everyone is smiling, but the service is abysmal...they forget orders, they ignore you for twenty mins then all of a sudden three waiters come in the space of few seconds...

Zona P.Zona Pan: Hip cafe with great coffee and delicious pastries. I highly recommend having a taste of the sourdough bread. It's on the milder side of sour and out of this world.

Gisli Marteinn B.Gisli Marteinn Baldursson: Don't miss the seats out in the back if you are visiting on a lovely summers day.

Mu-An .Mu-An 🧶: Um, unpopular opinion: I've had better coffee. And the service was really quite slow for a flat white to-go with not many people in store. Totally hip vibe and seemed cozy though!

Diego 🇨🇴 P.Diego 🇨🇴 Pulido: Best place for coffee in Reykjavík for one simple reason: they roast their own coffee. Also: constantly-spinning vinyl! :) Order the Eitt Sett (espresso + cappuccino)

Bárður Örn G.Bárður Örn Gunnarsson: By far the best coffee in town, really personal, and the baristas love to talk about coffee.

Jökull Sólberg A.Jökull Sólberg Auðunsson: A pretty thin crust as far as Reykjavík sourdoughs go. Delicious and light. Not sure if 80% of staff had mustache because of prostate cancer support month or just trendy. No seating, just bakery.

Pinar S.Pinar S.: The cinnamon roll is the benchmark for pastry. Reykjavik cuisine is full if surprises and this one is the best so far!!!

PeiWen S.PeiWen Seow: Cinnamon roll is the best! They have 3 variants-cinnamon,vanilla&blueberry licorice.This place is just a stone's throw away from the church,in a colorful building.The scent will lure you into the shop

JeanJean: Get the 2 or 3 course lunch menu featuring some really interesting local seafood + great value for money! Getting just 2 courses? Go for starters — way more interesting for gourmets 😋 than desserts.
