    A cosy and relaxed space for a coffee, a meeting or just to chill out and read. Also a good mix of books, crafts and fun items for gifts. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend it!

    On a brief visit to Iceland, based in Reykjavik, we made two or three visits to this delightful bookshop and coffee shop. Cosy, comfortable, varied, interesting and unhurried.

    We stopped here expecting it to be more of a bookshop but in fact it's mostly a cafe with books and gifts. We nabbed some comfy chairs by a window which was perfect for watching the snow outside! The carrot cake was great as was the coffee. Quite quiet inside with most people working on laptops, so we felt like we couldn't really chat but it was a nice moment of calm during our busy trip. Good free newspaper the Grapevine which was in English and very interesting with information on Reykjavik and a great interview with the new Prime Minister.

    This is a unique little cafe. Sitting between books and other things and enjoying the cafe and the view of it too. It's for all different age groups too. Very liked by tourists and locals.

    Really nice (and tall) Latte in a lovely book shop come Cafe. Staff were also very friendly. Would highly recommend this as a place to relax, read your book and drink a coffee.

    Taking advantage of happy hour beer - 2 bottles of Brio for 990 - and getting out of the rain - severe weather warning and just had thunder and lightning

    Fantastic place to take a moment to sit down and sip on a flat white between Reykjavik adventures. The seating is very relaxing, the facilities clean, and we felt welcomed to be leisurely. Definitely a win!

    Cute relaxed place. A proper espresso. If I was staying here longer, this would be my go to spot.

    My husband and I chilled here in their comfy chairs for an hour or so reading and sipping on coffee. Good drinks, cozy atmosphere. It's also a store with some books/novelties. They serve cortados and little desserts too.

    Love the collection of books and knickknacks. Enjoy a cup of coffee while sitting by the window, staying dry and watching the rain.

    Excellent, pretty large cafe/bookstore. Yes, it does double duty with booze in the evening, but the bookstore vibe helps a lot with that. Lots of tables and comfy chairs. Several outlets, openly posted free wifi password. Oldies at reasonable volume on the radio. High quality bagged teas. Chai is from syrup, which I didn't try, but they happily did one London Fog style with pretty good bagged chai tea. Nice variety of pastries and chocolate, though my carrot cake was a little stale. But it's the atmosphere that gets them 5 stars.

    This is the ideal chill spot. Chairs spread out in cozy meeting fashion. Bring yourself or accommodate a group of 4. The latte is wonderful and the light music in the background makes this place a relaxing environment I can't wait to come back to.
