Friendly staff! I ordered Jökull in two flavours, both were not on menu. One was Matcha and another one was Licorices. The drink was mixed with slashed ice, forgave me but I would love Ice-cold drink in Iceland! The sweetness was perfectly balanced with fresh cream. Good place to visit during shopping day!

One of not many places in Iceland for black coffee lovers where the choice doesn't finish just on americano. This is another level, coffee quality is top. The panini's was amazing, as well as the raspberry cake. 10/10!
