Reykjavík Roasters

$$ · ModerateLeashed only

Reykjavík's cult specialty-coffee roastery, serving its own Icelandic-roasted beans in a cosy, wood-lined room on Kárastígur. Well-behaved dogs are allowed inside, making it a staple stop on downtown dog-walk circuits.

Why it made the list

Iceland's best coffee in a warm, genuinely dog-tolerant room just off Laugavegur.

Good to know before you go

Well-behaved leashed dogs are permitted inside, as noted in Iceland pet-travel guides and the roastery's relaxed house culture; space is small, so come off-peak. Hours on the official site.

Practical notes

  • Buy a bag of the house roast as a souvenir
  • Visit mid-morning on weekdays for a seat
