Íslenski Barinn - The Icelandic Bar

I am a symptomatic celiac and they were able to make potatoes in lieu of fries and served one of the best burgers I've had in a long time on a GF bun. My husband had a normal reindeer burger and said it was delicious! I would eat here again knowing I was well cared for the first time!

I have mixed feeling about this place. Initially we chose it because based on reviews we saw that gluten free food is available (specifically burgers), but when we arrived they told us that cross contamination cannot be ruled out so as a celiac I could only (maybe) eat their fish soup or the fish of the day. I went for the fish of the day, and it was the driest and the most blend fish of my life. The dish also looked much less appetizing than the dishes of my friends in the group (they ordered some whale, puffin and lamb) even though it costed almost as much. We were also sitting next to the game wheel which was extremely loud every time someone rolled it. I only give 3 stars because the staff managed to find us a table on a busy day without reservation, and because my friends liked their dishes, except for puffin.

The very cozy place. We went at the beginning and end of our trip and ordered the same thing, the burger with the Icelandic pancake, very very good. I asked for gluten-free bread and they adapted it to me without a problem. They also told us that the lobster dog is great.
