Settlement Centre Restaurant - Borgarnes

Very nice, cozy, place opened in one of the oldest buildings in the town. Friendly and young service, with a great smile and energy.
We tried the fish stew and it was delicious as well as fresh bread😍 Many options for children are available including pasta.
Prices are aligned with the other offers so it is a good place to try!
You have an incredible shop in the ground floor, visit it!

We had low expectations of the restaurants in sleepy Borgarnes, but we ended up having one of our best dinners in Iceland here. The plokkfiskur, lamb and horse dishes were all excellent, with the lamb being the standout. Hats off to the chef!

Their healthy soup + veg buffet was great! Comes with super tasty choices of salads and a veg soup - unlimited!

After a cold day, this option will warm you up.

Excellent food at the restaurant - don't miss the burger or the fresh bread platter (salted butter was AMAZING)! Service was friendly and prompt yet relaxed - just right!

If you are looking fancy you will be put in a nice restaurant, if you come back from a hike you will be placed in another restaurant, atmosphere make me feel back to the second world war when the Jewish had to wear a yellow start and couldn't take the same bus or be place with in a restaurant with German people...
Most of the server are taking care of the customer in another restaurant while you are left alone and have to stair at them 10 min for finally making them feel uncomfortable
The food was really good, thanks to the cooks.

We had read several good reviews of The Settlement Center beforehand, and I had no doubt that I wanted to eat there. So after a trip to Reykholt, we drove straight there for dinner. There weren't many guests in the place, but several employees. Unfortunately, they seemed most interested in chatting with each other and this continued the whole time we were there, but finally someone came and asked if she could help us.
We got a table for two, but despite the few guests, the table hadn't been cleared. The same went for the table next to us. The waitress said she needed a few minutes, and then she cleared the table while we stood next to her and waited. There were a lot of empty tables, but maybe they were meant for more than two? We ordered two lamb dishes, and it took a very long time for the food to be ready, but we got the food and it tasted okay. 12400 ISK in total. All in all, disappointing service, but pleasant premises and OK food.
I'm tempted to give it a three out of five, but ended up with a four. We were perhaps a little unlucky with the service that day.

Absolutely fantastic Restaurant - probably the best burgers (including the reindeer or lowcarb version, it absolutely changed my life 🙂 ) in Iceland we had, great traditional Icelandic soup, absolutely fabulous fish (I've never had cod and caviar anywhere) and desserts and macciato! Veg options on the menu as well. Worth the money!!!!

Probably the only restaurant or hotel in Iceland that didn't have staff from PL or CZ, but maybe we just missed the staff - but that's not a complaint, just a comment 😉

Landnám Restaurant at the Settlement Centre serves Viking-worthy meals with modern flair. The lamb melts like it’s been sung to sleep, and the skyr cake deserves its own saga. Cozy vibes and friendly faces seal the deal.
