Rub23 is first and mostly a seafood restaurant with a broad selection of dishes as well as sushi and some meat dishes.
Rub23 has the goal to offer variated, simple but exciting choices for a broad group of customers.

(Café Cow)
The restaurant is located in the loft area above the cow barn at Garður farm.
You can watch the cows through a glass viewing point from the restaurant. There is also a TV monitor where you can see what is going on, e.g. milking of the cows, which is a 24/7 operation and is done by a milking robot. Guests are allowed to go into the barn, pet the calves and breath in the aroma of the countryside. Exploring the countryside is always rewarding. Come by and enjoy coffee and waffles with whipped cream at our café.

You probably will meet some other travelers, that you can share some stories or ask for some travelling tips? The restaurant is the ideal place to meet both other travelers and the locals.
The menu is simple and tasty and they are not fancy or formal, so you won‘t be getting confused over what silverware to use!
Backpackers have sample of the local brew and good selection of Icelandic beers. On weekdays they serve a daily special, for example, fish, lasagna, or pasta and on weekends they serve delicious BRUNCH with fried egg, sausages, bacon, potato wedges and pancakes.
