Best of the best! Fish soup was flavourful and the homemade bread was fantastic. I went back for seconds. My group had people buy their cakes too and everyone raved about them. Your order of fish soup comes with salad, bread, croutons, and fresh coffee all served on beautiful plates. Do check out the theatre on the ground floor, and enjoy all the fun knick knacks decorating this cozy spot. The owners’ mother knits the gorgeous icelandic wool sweaters you see by the entrance. All available for purchase. Service is wonderful and friendly staff explain how the meal experience goes. Not to be missed!!!

This place was phenomenal - from it's deliciously balanced fish soup to it's vintage and homely decor to it's warm and welcoming customer service. It was the best meal we had in Iceland and filled up not only our bellies, but also our hearts. I would recommend coming here to anyone looking for something special and memorable. PS the home made chocolate cake was absolutely divine - don't miss it!

Incredibly special, quaint and rustic little spot to grab the best fish stew you've never heard of. You can get refills of soup, too!

Fish soup 🍲 and salad 🥗 homemade bread 🍞 coffee or tea for lunch delicious! Especially after the frigid but fun whale watching tour!

I don't know if it is fact that we just came off a whale watching tour, but this was the best fish soup I have ever had. Make sure to stroll through the place and check out the decor and old theater in the back.

Hands down the best fish soup I’ve ever had. The soup was creamy yet did not have the prominent fish smell. Comes with 3 breads: paprika, turmeric and white grains. Decent desserts to try and coffee. The place has amazing views and history as well (along with a theatre in the back), the people were sweet and friendly.

Homemade breads made with local beer and unique seasonings. Vegetable soup was excellent! Lovely setting and staff. Great place to stop for lunch!

Stopped by just before closing. I had the vegetable soup while my boyfriend had the fish option. Salad, bread and coffee was included in the price. The hosts were very helpful. Enjoyed the soup. The cafe is very quaint with lots to look at.
