We have visited this restaurant twice during our stay in Stykkisholmur. First, we had only coffees and some sweet stuff (home made ice cream and some icelandic speciality which looked like yoghurt with blackberries), but the second time, I got the best soup during 2 weeks on Iceland, called something like "cream soup on white wine with seafood". Absolutely fresh... More

After a ride with Baldur (ferry to Stykkisholmur) on a windy and rainy day it is nice to walk into this charming little restaurant. Very helpful staff, excellent menu, excellent soups, pretty decent wine list. When you are sitting inside this nicely renovated house and you are looking at the rain pouring down outside you're really feeling good. A place... More

When we arrived there was a big group of people eating there and the waitors were very busy. We both had fish soup that was quite tasty and satisfied our hungry stomachs. We drove 400 kilometers that day, so weally needed something then. The very young waitors did their best and they were very helpful.

We arrived in Stykkishólmur about approx 3-4 hours. We ate at Narfeyrarstofa. First night there I have very good meals. Highly recommended the mussels that come fresh out of the fiord. The location down by the harbour was lovely. The food service and ambiance were all very good. Nice atmosphere and good seafood dinners. Variety to choose from. Lots of... More

Wow, we certainly didn't anticipate how delicious the food would be here! My husband ordered a seafood stew that was so delicious, we fought over who would eat it. Loved the atmosphere. When we were there it was not busy.

We ate lunch and dinner here today and loved both meals. My husband started with a mixed appetizer of the rotten shark and actually really liked it! I tried it and it wasn't nearly as bad as you might imagine - if you like stinky cheeses, you might like it. But the cumin-laced schnapps that goes with it is really... More

This place likes to see itself as a cut above the local restaurant competition (and there isn't much, to be frank). The ambiance, nicely designed decor and informative menu/wine-list all boded well. The waiter appeared to be in the early stages of learning his trade (!) and to be fair to him he was considerably better on the second night... More

My boyfriend and I settled on Narfeyrarstofa as our "nice night out" meal while staying on Snaefellsness. I am not a seafood eater, so had been eating a lot of lamb during our 10 day trip, and the postivive reviews I had read referenced the burgers here. Figured this spot would satisfy both or our cravings at this point of... More
