Trendy restaurant. Good for lunch and dinner. Also very good cakes and deserts all day. I also really like their sourdough bread and you can go there just to buy a loaf. The price is about 850 isk for a whole one and 490 isk for half. The place used to be a pharmacy and that has been honoured in the concept.

Recently opened up at this new location at the old harbour. In this location they serve the fish also in the pan but this is buffet style. both for lunch and dinner. The fish comes out in the pans and you can taste all the various fish they have to offer. The prices are reasonable and no one goes out from there hungry. https://grapevine.is/culture/2017/11/10/were-gonna-need-a-bigger-boat-fish-restaurant-messinn-opens-second-location/

This colourful teahouse is one of my favourite. It is a bit abstract where it stands a bit out of the beaten path. It is run by a Sviss artist in Japanese anime style. there is a good selection of tea and the cakes are really good. http://kumiko.is
