There is a wide variety of restaurants in the South of Iceland, both small and large. Many offer famous and highly appreciated catering, such as the Icelandic, traditional „Þorrablót“, a Venison buffet, and a Christmas buffet.
The guests are pampered by their hosts at these restaurants regarding both food and drinks. If you wish to relax, you can find a small and cozy restaurant and can be in personal contact with your hosts, even at a farm if you like.
Enjoying the countryside dining means being offered a traditional Icelandic „flatkökur“, twisted doughnuts, pancakes filled with jam and whipped cream, and hot chocolate to drink with all of this delicious pastry.
Apart from all that, the South of Iceland can proudly offer restaurants with a great emphasis on a professional and varied menu.
The hotels, as well as the restaurants, often offer a four-course menu at all seasons. They like to use as much as possible of the raw material, which is fresh and seasonal in the region each time. Great emphasis is laid on a fresh material of the best possible quality available at each time. Both restaurants and hotels are more than willing to handle catering at banquets, parties, meetings, conferences, and other gatherings. The customers have a lot to choose from in that aspect.
