Hlemmur Mathöll

Amazing food hall. If you don’t know what you want or everyone in your party wants something different, this is the place to go. Can feel slightly cramped when busy but everyone was so patient and friendly. Shared a table with an Indian family, happily discussed what everyone got. On the table was wolf fish cream dish, pizza, tacos, gelato, and a pork and rice Vietnamese dish. All amazing. My absolute favorite was potato and cheese croquettes. I will dream about them… Order and find a table, wait for food buzzer to go off.

This was the perfect stop for a quick lunch! It’s a great way to try all different things! I highly recommend the blue mussels from the one location, and the croquettes from Krost. Definitely in great vibe, plenty of seating, and friendly service.

The fish and chips is incredible and also the pizza. Such a great atmosphere!! We will be back if we come back to Iceland.

Good food and good price. Easy going place. Super Atmosphere!!! I like this place👍

Great selection of food stands. Anything from fish & chips to oriental and ice cream. Fun venue to spend budget friendly evening with friends.

I am on vacation in Reykjavik, Iceland and went to crab a bit to eat at Fjarhusid Hlemmur, and please note, THE SERVICE AND THE FOOD WAS HORRIBLE!!! I ordered a burger, fries, and a small order of wings. When I went to the counter to pickup my order I asked the waiter if I could have my order to go because I received a call requiring me to immediately meet my wife. The waiter had an attitude with me requesting that my order be prepared for carry out; he stated I should have told them up front , and the next time to do so! I was polite and apologized. I then asked to have my burger cut in half. The cook again got an attitude as though I was asking for too much!! The lady at the register got a knife to cut the burger in half, however, the cook rudely told her “NO,” then snatched the knife from her hand!!!. I said “so you’re not cutting my sandwich in half” and he looked at me and said “NO”; he then and told the lady at the register to hand me my Order. Mind you I had already paid with my credit card so I just took my order and left. When I began to eat the burger the flavor was horrible, and to my surprise, significantly undercooked to the point of being literally raw in the middle as you can see in my attached photo!!! I did not want to walk back to complain because of how I was treated when I initially placed my order. Reykjavík Iceland is beautiful, however, the horrible service, and food at Fjarhusid Hlemmur has left a very bad impression!!! If anyone has plans to visit Reykjavík avoid Fjarhusia Hlemmur restaurant!!! There are many other restaurants in the area with far superior service and food than Fjarhusid Hlemmur!!

Amazing choice of food. My husband had fish and chips and he said its the best he's ever had. I had steak and it was exceptional. We went 2 days running. Excellent food, quality and service. Highly recommend.

We stopped by Hlemmur Mathöll after seeing several online recommendations, but unfortunately, we left feeling unimpressed. The overall atmosphere felt a bit uninviting, and the space itself seemed somewhat dirty and less well maintained than other nearby food halls. In terms of variety, the options here were noticeably limited compared to other spots in Reykjavík. What also stood out was the poor customer service. Several of the employees came across as rude, and one interaction in particular stood out. A child dropped his fork, and when the mother asked for a new one, the employee was oddly argumentative and reluctant to help. If you are nearby and need a quick bite, it is passable. But with so many better food halls in the area, I would not go out of my way to return or recommend it to others.
