It's a genuine party place. For the younger readers, this is a great place to hang out, listen to music, chat with locals and have some drinks. The music does sometimes get loud and unable to hold a meaningful conversations, but isn't that part of the experience?

Hipsters Paradise

This is a hip little place, mostly occupied by younger people. The music is generally electronic and the vibe is quite friendly. In summertime there are occasionally popup market and some culturefests, which might be of some interest.

House with a long and rich history

Hressingarskálinn

I haven't been so impressed with the food there, but it's perfect for drinks (coffee and alcoholic beverages). It has a long and interesting history, being one of the oldest houses in Reykjavík (built 1805).
