Sjávarpakkhúsið Restaurant
Sjávarpakkhúsið
A small seafood restaurant in a converted harbour fish store, famous for its white wine and herb mussels.
Located in an old fish store at Hafnargata 2 in the Stykkishólmur harbour, built over the water with only about 30 seats. It holds the Nordic Swan Ecolabel and has ranked first in Stykkishólmur on TripAdvisor for years. Its signature is a pot of white wine and herb mussels made with local Breiðafjörður mussels. Other dishes include cured cod, wolffish with celeriac purée, lumpfish roe with horseradish cream, and halibut, and there are multi-course tasting menus. Dipping bread is charged separately. Seating is limited, so book ahead in peak season. It is right next to the ferry terminal.
