This restaurant is on my best Icelandic 🇮🇸 restaurants-on-the go list! 😊👍😊👍
My first visit was ... I think in 2017 ... and I've liked it ever since and it's one of the places where I've never been disappointed with the food or the service. 👍
Actually every time I go to the Blue Lagoon or Grindavik, where I have family roots, I love to drop by Hjá Höllum for a light meal and/or freshly brewed coffee with a yummy homemade sweet treat. 😋👍😋
Today I shared a delish Vegan sandwich and a pecan cake with a friend ... and tasted two of the places speciality breads that were outstanding; especially the multigrain one with the seeds & other yummy ingredients! 😋😋😋 The pesto mayo was also tops with the white bread loaf topped with feta cheese. Please see attached photos to get a better idea. 😊😋😊

Read moreAlors comment vous dire que les patrons, les serveurs et serveuses sont ADORABLES !!!!
Aprés un vol de nuit depuis la France, que tu récuperes ta voiture de location et que tu te dis ok je fais un petit somme le temps que quelque chose ouvre et qu'il est 8h tapante quand tu arrives dans cet endroit magique par l'odeur, le coté classe du lieu et son charme naturel et bien tu te dis que tu es au bon endroit pour démarrer ton voyage en Islande !!!
Alors je vous confirme que le café est excellent, que la formule Breakfast platter est magique !!!! On se dit que ca va le faire juste vu que tu as pas mangé depuis 12h minimum ... Et ben détrompez vous ... Le mix Bacon (qui est croquant et SAVOUREUX) plus pain fait maison, avocat et huile basilic et oeuf au plat .... C'était délicieux .... Ca vous donne la peche et vous requinque !
Suivi d'un dessert avec fraise, mytille, yahourt dense; le tout avec son sirop de miel .... Une tuerie tellement cela fait du bien et que c'est gourmand !
Vous l'aurez compris je recommande à 10000 % ce lieu et petit chose à savoir le café est à "volonté", on peut se resservir, que demandez de plus ???

So how can I tell you that the bosses, the waiters and waitresses are LOVING !!!!
After a night flight from France, you pick up your rental car and you say to yourself ok I'm taking a nap while something opens and it's 8 o'clock sharp when you arrive in this magical place by the smell, the classy side of the place and its natural charm and well you say to yourself that you're in the right place to start your trip in Iceland !!!
Then I confirm you that the coffee is excellent, that the formula Breakfast platter is magic !!!! You think that it's going to do it just because you haven't eaten for 12 hours minimum... Well, you're wrong ... The Bacon mix (which is crunchy and TASTY) plus home made bread, avocado and basil oil and fried egg .... It was delicious .... Gives you a boost and makes you feel better!
Followed by a dessert with strawberry, blueberry, dense yogurt; all with its honey syrup .... It's a real treat because it's so good for you and it's delicious!
You will have understood it I recommend it to 10000 % this place and small thing to know the coffee is with "at will", one can be refilled, what to ask...
Read moreAfter landing in Iceland we wanted to eat before heading to Reykjavík. Google search “breakfast near me” Hja Hollu was it. What a wonderful welcome for our first meal in Iceland. My husband and I both had the breakfast special. I choose the yogurt as a side and my husband had the chia seed pudding as his side. The special included to fried eggs which we could tell were very fresh because we have chickens back home and know what fresh eggs taste like. The eggs were on top of this delicious bread with a slice of avocado. The bacon was amazing. The food tasted so fresh and it felt good having a big healthy meal after a...
