Restaurants in Húsavík

  1. Gamli Baukur

    The lovely timber-framed restaurant-bar serves excellent food (juicy burgers, succulent fish soup and a zingy curry bouillabaisse) and flavourful coffee among shiny nautical relics. Live music and a sweeping terrace makes it the most happenin’ place in northeast Iceland. It is one of those rare places that manages to be both a favourite local hangout and a wonderfully friendly place for tourists.

    This 'gourmet hut' aims to let visitors sample local foods such as dried haddock, marinated herring, dried reindeer and smoked trout for free, and it offers a small menu of traditional Icelandic foods. The outdoor terrace has great views over the harbour.

  3. Salka

    Once home to Iceland’s first cooperative, this historic building now houses a popular restaurant serving every­thing from smoked puffin to pizza. The real speciality here, though, is seafood, with excellent lobster, prawns (shrimp) and salt cod on offer.
