Kaffi Ilmur — Restaurant in Akureyrarbær

Nestled amidst the bustling array of coffee shops in town, Kaffi Ilmur emerged as a beacon of warmth and flavor, drawing me in for three consecutive days of pure delight.

We really enjoyed our lunch at Kaffi Ilmur. It was crowded and chaotic downstairs where the register is. It is also where you order coffee and other menu items. All employees were kind and working hard, but I felt confused for a while. They do not accept AMEX card so I had the get back in line with another credit card.

I definitely recommend a stop into the adorable yellow home-style restaurant when...

The restaurant was not cheap so we expected delicious food for this money. The dishes were really substandard. The worst we have had in Iceland and also the...
