Bar

Authentic Icelandic home cooking with a modern twist. Flatbreads, shark, salmon, and lamb, plus everyday meals like fish stew and an Icelandic take on burgers and hotdogs — including their popular lobster hotdog. Stocking one of the best selections of Icelandic brews and the ever-growing craze for Icelandic gin. Live music if you’re lucky!
