This is absolutely the best cafe in Iceland. The food was so damn good, nothing compared to any other cafe or restaurant I’ve been in Iceland. 5 stars! Homemade but delicious food! I had Chief’s Fish - it’s just melting in your mouth. Devine!

Visiting from Canada and found this spot along our road trip. Was a treat to find. Nice hostess, helped me choose toppings for my hot dog. My partner had the lamb chops which was a surprisingly large portion. Food was tasty and super quick! Worth a visit!
