Food scene
Farm to table Icelandic cuisine with a modern Scandinavian twist. Menu changes daily depending on season. We recommend you go there for Icelandic fish for lunch or step in during the evening for a more upscale experience and perhaps a cocktail.
Run by a young local couple. Note they are closed on Mondays.

Activities
Taking a dip in a geothermal pool is a must for your visit to Iceland. The pool is warm, with a selection of hot tubs, 2 slides and a kiddy pool. It's open all year and ideal for wintertime. Great fun and refreshing for everyone.

Geothermal indoor swimming pool with outdoor hot tubs, dating back to 1943. Coming here is like stepping back in time and the interiors have been used in indie music videos. On weekdays you might run into children having swimming lessons or possibly just having the entire place to yourself! The outdoor area is best on cold, dark winter evenings. I promise you will not be cold.
