English Pub

All hail wee Britain

English Pub

This is quite an ordinary English pub and sometimes that's exactly what we want. It doesn't try hard being something that it is not. If you are looking for a good English pub, then this is it.

Kaffibrennslan

Pubs 3 1

By Jonas

Coffehouse for the alternative tourist

Its a nice place to meet locals, who share interest in alternative music and art. The beer is reasonably priced, with happy hour everyday until 20:00. The interior is quite retro and the atmosphere is quite friendly. It's a small place though and it can be crowded at times.

Frederiksen

Pubs 1 1

By Jonas

Old fashioned pub with a twist

Frederiksen

There is a occasional gathering of young hipsters - and there is a reason for it. It's stylish, good and reasonably priced. Frederiksen is an ale pub, gastropub and a concert venue. It's recommended for a quick bite after work or a long hard day - especially around happy hour (which is from 16:00 until 19:00 every day).

Hard rock hallelujah

Dillon

Quite often there are concerts during the weekends in a tiny crowded corner of the place. The interior is dark and cold, quite fitting for the ultimate rock & roll experience.

Prikið

Pubs 4 1

60 years of good times

Prikið

Though tempting going there during the weekends, it's the daytime that appeals. It has a good pub food and a special "2 for 1" offer on beers between 16:00-20:00 every day.
