4 of us went to eat. They have GLUTEN FREE options!!! Two very friendly young guys attended to us. Very good price quality. Reserve some space for desserts: delicious milkshakes, ice cream. Highly recommended.

So finished a great break to Iceland with a return 3 years since we were last here. The Apotek restaurant doesn’t disappoint, the food was…and this in my mind a measure of how great it was, the best meal to finish off a great holiday. Service was great from the start, the waitress Helena (a fellow Brit), was superb in her attentiveness was superb, great conversation and an asset to the restaurant. Anyhow, they cater for coeliacs and can easily provide gluten free food options. Trust me you won’t be disappointed, well I hope note. Try it and I hope you have an equally high quality culinary experience. When we return, dare I say it, it’ll be a return all being well.

Very good cuisine😁, the dishes are neat and the taste is really there. The waitresses are kind to explain to us based on a dietary restriction. Quite expensive for a dish with 6 potatoes. The menu is quite short in choice and that's good because the fewer there are, the better the dish. The desserts all look delicious but very few are gluten-free.

Good food and good service. We had a normal pizza and gluten free pizza and they were both very tasty. Recommended!

Russell Montgomery

A lovely experience. We had a birthday on this trip and they had the perfect patisserie for her 'Birthday cake'. We were so pleased with our selection and that there were multiple gluten-free options.

The gluten-free brownie is fart-dry! Every Suoermarkt mix is ​​better! The vegan carrot cake was ok, but not a hit and at 10 euros it was simply too expensive! There are definitely better coffees in Reykjvik!

Nice place they have gluten-free options but obviously can not guarantee cross contamination, but they do try and make an effort. Food was delicious and the staff was friendly and helpful.

Natalie Greig

The service here was amazing! Abdul couldn't of been more welcoming. Lovely gluten free food - the marinated chicken was delicious

We stopped here to grab lunch before going in the Blue Lagoon. While the place is spacious, pretty and comfortable, staff friendly and food tasty, it was ultimately not a good choice. The pace was truly glacial - not sure if it's due to the server, the kitchen, or the restaurant being understaffed, but we spent over an hour for what was meant as a quick bite. Our order included fish of the day, beef, and mashroon soup. Again, the food was very good, but simply not worth the wait. There was gluten free bread and gf options on the menu available. They also have kids menu with kids-only dishes.

Amazing gluten free options!

One of the best restaurants in Reykjavik. The cod is very tasty. Great mix of tastes for the senses. The only negative thing is I think the portion are a tiny bit small. The chef can adapt meals to be gluten free.

Nice restaurant! The server was really helpful and nice. There were lots of gluten-free options, also for celiacs. The hot chocolate was not really my cup of tea but that could be because it’s just different in my country. All the food tasted amazing though. The restaurant was clean except for the toilets.

Evan Hirsch

Dairy free chai, gluten free carrot cake (though not dairy free), and funny barista. Yum!

Such an incredible experience and a must do experience when visiting Iceland! Very unique with the restaurant being in the greenhouse but it’s not when to miss. The unlimited fresh tomato soup was delightful but to my amazement they had gluten free bread! Absolutely 10/10

We recently had lunch at this restaurant located in a food court in Iceland, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. We ordered a burger and lamb. Although they didn’t have gluten-free buns available, they were accommodating and made adjustments to the burger, which I appreciated. The lamb was tender and flavorful. The service was efficient, with a distinct fast-food vibe, though the quality was noticeably higher. You order at the counter, receive a device, and then pick up your food when it's ready. It’s a convenient system, especially in a food court setting. Overall, everything was good, and I’d recommend it if you’re looking for a quick yet satisfying meal.

The service and food were excellent. My girlfriend has celiac. The service and kitchen were very sensitive and knowledgeable of the condition. The wine pairing was fantastic. Don't be thrown off by the name: Monkey's is a fantastic dining experience in Reykjavik. We're very happy we came here.

Nice food, even gluten free. Really nice staff a knows about the alergens.

Wonderful place for any meal. Coming from the States and staying near by, this was our go to place, especially for the Swiss mocha in the morning:) The food was delicious and they had gluten free options.The service and staff were excellent and very welcoming. Don’t hesitate to stop in. 5 stars all the way

Ben

Very friendly service. Had 1 meal I could have that was gluten free and vegan. Not cheap for what it was.

Neil Fishwick

Popped in for lunch on a very chilly day in Akureyri in January. Helpful staff who happily checked if the chicken and avocado sandwich could be made on gluten free bread. It could and led t a very happy customer. Thank you

Stopped here during the Reykjavik Geopark tour. The soups are good (and gluten free) with one refill. This is a very expensive restaurant in comparison to ones in Reykjavik. The soup and coffee is self serve which is very convenient. The service is very fast for anything else that is ordered. All in all, a good experience, just unusually expensive.

Julie Elmer

Fantastic food. Gluten free and vegetarian options. Great service and view.

Ania

Saved my life! It's a pub, the food is not as fancy as in a restaurant, but after a couple of days of traveling, this is exactly what was needed. Overall, the atmosphere was pretty cool! We had a hearty, hot meal on a rainy day. We tried the lamb, beef stew, and iclanding stew - everyone was happy. It was simple but very good. At the time of our visit, there were there gluten free options - beef stew, lamb chops, and arctic char.

WARNING Items on menu are marked gluten free, yet are in fact not gluten free. I found out too late and have been in pain since visiting. They did offer to remove the items I ordered from the bill but not sure if they followed through on it as my father in law took the bill. Food was slow and flavours were ok. The atmosphere was nice.

Abby Hangyas

My husband and I will go on record to say this cafe has the BEST Hot Chocolate we've ever had, in any country, ever! I am gluten free and there were many food options to enjoy as well - the almond pastry and gf bread with butter, ham and cheese were fantastic. My husband really enjoys the waffles. Already have another trip to Iceland planned and this stop is one of the first on the list!

We had so much fun here! My wife and I are visiting Iceland for our honeymoon and had to stop here as we were missing our kitty cats back home. The cats at this cafe are clearly well-loved and we had a great time getting to spend time with them. The beverages were good and so were the pastries. I had a delicious vegan and gluten-free raspberry cake that I will be dreaming about for days to come! The space is small so I would not recommend bringing a group larger than 4. They even sell some merchandise such as shirts, stickers, and artwork! We will be back next time we are in Iceland!

Desert Wren

This was a great find, small, a bit funky, unpretentious, out of the way and unexpected. The food was Outstanding, we both had fish and I wish I could have eaten more it was so good. Service was charming and informal. I was a bit worried as they said that they had several staff folks out sick that day, but they pulled it off in style. Also, Great if you have gluten issues.

I would give it less stars if I could. If you are celiac or have a gluten intolerance DO NOT eat here. The items on the menu that are supposed to be gluten free are not. They do not accommodate preferences. The waitress that attended us could not answer any of our questions and had to keep going back and forth. She also forgot to write down one of our meals. Stay away!

My husband and I went here on a whim. I cannot recommend it enough. The Reykjavik mule was 10/10. We did tapas and had: pan fried perch, potatoes, carrots, butternut risotto, and the seafood soup. Everything was amazing and gluten free. I will be back!
