Hvönn Restaurant in Skálholt is open from 11:30-21:00 and is a great place to stop for a meal on your Golden Circle tour. Hvönn means Angelica, which is thought to be the prime herb in the Icelandic flora. In Hvönn Restaurant, we focus on old traditional food, but we put a modern twist on it. We work a lot with fermentation like lactic acid, kombucha, and kefir. These are storing methods that Icelanders have used from the first settlements in order to survive harsh winters. But now we use them to make unique and fantastic flavors.
We have a bar at the restaurant where we serve both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.
Come visit us and get a taste of Iceland.
