Klausturkaffi

We stopped here for lunch after visiting Hengifoss, and it turned out to be an excellent choice. They offer a lunch buffet with a variety of dishes, including delicious soups, fish stew, lamb, and perfectly cooked vegetables. To top it off, there’s also a nice dessert buffet with coffee and tea included — all for a fixed price of 5000 ISK, which is absolutely great value by Icelandic standards. Highly recommended!

Without a doubt, our favorite meal we had on the trip. This is a lunch buffet located in the farmstead of a famous Icelandic author that has been turned into a museum with a small dining room for the homemade lunch buffet. The food is entirely homemade and is served family buffet style with a large table right by the kitchen for serving all the food. The "menu" changes daily but they are well known for their soups and homemade cakes which were all absolutely delicious. There was so much food and all of it traditional Icelandic, we had plates of reindeer pie, baked cod, curried lamb, rice, potatoes, vegetables. And then there's the bread. They bake multiple types of fresh bread and serve them still warm with amazingly creamy butter. The rye bread was the best bread I have ever had in my life and I had to get a plat just for the bread alone. This is a must visit, no matter how far of a detour you must take. (It may be only open during summer).

So this is by far the best meal I’ve had in Iceland by far. The buffet has perfect options of local meals and was absolutely delicious. The reindeer meatballs were the highlight for me and the orange cake had me going back for a second piece

Doing the ring road, this lunch buffet was the first time my travel companion and I were impressed by the food. Very kind and welcoming staff, an excellent variety of food, and a buffet - great after a long hike. The prices were also very reasonable (by Icelandic standards) relative to the quantity and quality of food. We will make a point to stop here again if we return!

Well, this was such a glorious spot to stop after a morning of adventure and hiking. It's situated in such an incredible location with stunning views all around. The staff were super smiley and friendly, which made us feel very welcome. They were attentive and explained the options for all you can eat cake and savories with coffee or hot chocolate from the buffet. This is an AMAZING deal for your money and there was a lovely variety to choose from. I opted to have lunch from their menu, choosing a fish soup, which was exactly what I was craving after a long hike. It was a beautiful creamy soup, a large portion and I wouldn't hesitate in ordering again (it was that nice!) All in all, a lovely place to visit (it's also a museum) with friendly staff and plenty of space for large groups. We'd definitely come back again 👍😊☕🍻🍰

Wonderful buffet of local foods. My favourite meal in Iceland. The mushroom soup served with a variety of freshly baked breads was delicious. Everything is fresh and homemade. Don’t miss this opportunity to try an authentic local restaurant. Excellent value for the range of food available: soups, mains and homemade cakes with cream. Coffee also included.

Best meal in Iceland! Everything so fresh, so tasty.

I cannot miss this place whenever I come to the east of Iceland. It’s one of the best spots if you want to try a variety of delicious homemade Icelandic dishes. The atmosphere is warm and friendly, and the staff welcome you with a big smile, making you feel truly comfortable. Highly recommended!
