About This Activity

Despite Iceland's fish-and-lamb culinary heritage, Reykjavík punches well above its weight for plant-based dining. A self-guided walk along Laugavegur and its side streets connects Gló, Garðurinn, Kaffi Vinyl (vegan café with vinyl records), and Hlemmur Mathöll food hall — whose rotating stalls include plant-based options. Local vegan food blogger community HappyCow lists over 50 vegan and vegan-friendly venues in the city, making it straightforward to eat well plant-based even in winter.
