Blómasetrið - Kaffi Kyrrð
Cafe
👍👍 Such an incredible coffee shop! It’s unlike any that I’ve ever visited. The charm and ambiance is off the charts! Super friendly staff and beautiful location. The menu offers a large array of food and beverages. My daughter ordered the Icelandic chocolate waffle with rhubarb and it was amazing. Thei...

Bara Borgarnes
Diner
👍👍 We had a wonderful evening yesterday with two charming, warm-hearted hosts.
The food was delicious (grilled lamb and grilled chicken) and the portions were large.
Because I wanted to try a particular vodka, they mixed me an extra cocktail which I can only recommend if you like something like moscow...

La Colina Pizzeria
Pizza restaurant
🫤 Unfortunately totally overrated and the worst Pizza I had so far, EVER! Very friendly service, unfortunately that can not make up for a tasteless and blunt pizza. Pizza is the only dish they served. NOT recommendable.

The Settlement Center
Museum
👍 Due to road closures our travels redirected us to Borgarnes. The Settlement Center was a big stop for our day of driving. There is a lot of history here, which is shared in the echo offered at this location. We were focused on food, as we had beef driving a lot. The buffet looked ok, but we opted fo...

Borgarnes Swimming Pool
Swimming pool
👍👍 A quintessentially Icelandic pool experience. Three large hot tubs of various temperatures, a heated pool with lanes for swimming, three different sized water slides for kids of all sizes and ages, a steam bath, and even a tub of cold water if you like to torture yourself like me. All for around $9...

Geirabakarí Kaffihús
Bakery
👍👍 I think this spot was used as the "Papa John's" in the Walter Mitty movie. They have small bites (love balls) that are very tasty.

Englendingavík
Restaurant
👍👍 We decided to stop over here for lunch and were gently welcomed by the waitress who was really nice to us all the time. The cod and the “bruschetta” (sorry but as Italian I can’t call it so because it’s actually not like that) were very tasty. The dishes were served rapidly. Prices a little bit high...

Bónus
Supermarket
👍👍 There are 3 supermarket brands in Iceland. Bonus, Netto and Kronan. Our experience is that the Kronan is the best looking, most diverse and the most expensive. Netto is cheaper with limited diversity and Bonus is cheap, has everything we needed but sometimes a bit messy. But it was our number one.

Michelle Bird
Artist
👍👍 I stayed with Michelle twice, once in May 2015 and then again in Dec 2022, and both times were unforgettable. I’ve always had a sensitive soul and have loved the way art makes me feel. But what Michelle did in Borgarnes I had never experienced before: she turned her house into an exhibition and invi...

Vínbúðin
State liquor store
🫤 This review is not related to price, because most alcohol is crazy expensive in Iceland. Why? Because the people tolerate the government gouging them. Vinbudin is a government controlled monopoly.
I am rating this location low quite simply because of the lack of variety of products. Sure there is l...

Museum
👍👍 The museum is very interesting. It is a collection of over a century of childhood photographs. There are photos from the late nineteenth century to today. You can therefore see scenes of life and customs of Iceland and its people
Furthermore there is the reconstruction of an ancient domestic environ...
