Garðurinn Vegan Café, Reykjavík
Reykjavik, Iceland
About This Activity
Garðurinn (The Garden) on Klapparstígur is Reykjavík's most established fully vegan café, serving a compact daily lunch menu of plant-based soups, mains, and baked goods since the 1990s. The menu changes daily based on seasonal and local Icelandic ingredients — expect warming root vegetable soups in winter and lighter grain salads in summer. The café has a warm, homey atmosphere and is especially popular with locals during the harsh winter months as a plant-based refuge on Laugavegur.
Seasonal note: Year-round; lunch hours only
