What people say

Kristen Mackiewicz
" Reykjavik Roasters is commonly known as the most famous coffee shop in Reykjavik. The atmosphere is relaxed and cozy, filled with old tables and chairs. They roast their own beans directly from farms in Colombia and Nicaragua. What’s unique about RR is they offer three different brewing methods as well as a full menu of espresso drinks – just ask the barista if you don’t know what to order, they are always so friendly and helpful! I also recommend their bakery items – recently I had a gluten free chocolate and peanut butter bar that was to DIE for! Hours: 8 – 18:00 / S-S 9 – 17:00"

"In a city that takes its coffee seriously, Reykjavík Roasters is the most-popular coffee shop. The Kárastígur shop was its first location (there are now two others, as well). It has mismatched seating, vinyl records, locals working on their laptops, and baristas who know what they're doing. After an early flight, this is always one of my first stops in Reykjavík. If there's a seat available, it's the perfect spot to sip a flat white, pick at a croissant, people-watch, and start planning the rest of your day."

"Very cozy and intimate coffee shop. Felt like you were grabbing a cup of coffee in a friend's house. I loved it here!"
