5/5. Wife and I had the ice cream, pastry, and coffee. All amazing and with an awesome view of the church. Would recommend.

I stumbled upon this cafe after visiting the church and wanted to stop in to try some local specialities. I got the Loki plate which had rye bread with smoked trout and plokkfiskar, which was described as "smashed fish" but is really quite similar to...mashed potatoes with fish mixed in (super delicious!), as well as flatbread with smoked lamb. It also came with the infamous Icelandic fermented shark, hákarl, which I tried with some trepidation only to find out that the smell is way worse than the taste. I think the taste is pretty much like any aged cheese, strong in that fermented kind of way, but the smell is really quite ammonia-like which made it tough. The very nice staff told me that the version they have is a "mild version" compared to what they have up north, so I guess I should count my blessings! I also had the Loki tea, which was a nice herbal tea that came with some local honey for sweetness. Overall it was a great meal and I recommend it to anyone interested in trying some delicious Icelandic foods!More

Came here as part of a food walking tour with a huge group. Had the famous rye bread ice cream which came with a small doughnut. Tour guide recommended dipping the doughnut into your coffee which everyone seemed to enjoy. The rye bread ice cream...was the highlight though! It wasn’t too sweet and had a good consistency.More

Brilliant cafe opposite the Church. suggest the daily lunch special as good value for Iceland Veggie Lasagne for Mrs & normal Lasagne for me was very good food & lots of it. Ice cream with rye bread is good & the coffee is exceptional. All...served with a smileMore

We only tried the rybread icecream, but we were surprised it tasted so good! Something to try at home.

Great food and service to match. Not fussy, just really good. Lamb and fish options equally good. Rye bread ice cream ,,, wasn't half way through before wishing that we hadn't got just the one to share!

The rye bread ice cream was delicious. The fermented shark was disgusting but you gotta try it just to say you did. Certainly is a memory we won't forget. The staff was wonderful.
