They were Gudrun's local bakery when she was a child. They do delicious breakfasts, and a have a newly refurbished and really stylish sitting area. It's a four minute walk.
NB THE MAP IS WRONG. IT IS MUCH CLOSER THAN THAT.

They are our immediate neighbours, and a class act. We love it there, as do most discerning Reyjkavikians. French in design, Icelandic ingredients and ambiance.

Johannes Kjarval was Iceland´s greatest painter. This is the permanent collection. Great coffee. There is also a park around it. One of our favourite places.
