Gló Restaurant, Reykjavík
Reykjavik, Iceland
About This Activity
Gló on Engjateigur (with a second location on Laugavegur) is one of Reykjavík's busiest plant-forward restaurants, offering a menu heavy with raw vegan dishes, cold-pressed juices, Buddha bowls, and organic smoothies alongside hot plant-based mains. Many dishes are fully vegan and clearly labelled. Gló is popular with health-conscious Icelanders and visiting travellers who want flavourful, nutritious food that contrasts with the meat-heavy traditional Icelandic diet. The Laugavegur location is ideal for a lunch or early dinner during a shopping or sightseeing day.
