Fjöruhúsið Café
Fjöruhúsið
A seasonal café in a century-old seaside cottage at Hellnar, most famous for cream fish soup with homemade bread.
A historic cottage on the coast of the small fishing village of Hellnar, right beside the sea cliffs. It is the end point and refreshment stop of the coastal trail from Arnarstapi to Hellnar. Indoor seating is for about twenty-odd people, and there is also a terrace. The signature is cream fish soup with homemade bread, and waffles with jam and cream and skyr cake are also popular. It costs about ISK 2,000–4,000 per person. No reservations are taken, but seating is tight. The café is seasonal and sometimes closes earlier than posted, so call ahead before visiting in the evening.
Opening hours
About Easter to October, daily around 11:00–18:00 (may extend to 20:00 in summer)
