This was a cozy place with friendly service. The soft serve vanilla was delish, and the Nutella mocha was a delight! They also have gelato, crepes, and a menu full of espresso drinks. A lovely place to spend an evening for a sweet treat!

Nutella crepes with caramelised pecan ice cream - what's not to like!? Pleasant staff and great value for a totally delicious naughty treat.

I'm not sure why this is #3 on the list of restaurants. I would not classify it as a restaurant - more of an ice cream/coffee shop. I had the mixed berry crepe with mint chocolate chip ice cream. The ice cream was good. But the crepe was okay... I've had better. But it is hard to mess up a... More

It was a toss up between spelt flour crepes filled with a savoury filling of blue cheese with nuts and ham or bananas, whipped cream with shavings of Belgian chocolate. These decisions are so difficult! I went with the latter and it was delicious. The Swiss Mocha was the best I had in Iceland and I tried a few! Our... More

I'm used to Walpole Creamery, so this ice cream isn't too special, although I LOVE that it is open later than 6:00 (when almost everything else seems to close!). The location is great too.

Following a light meal at a pizza place and a short strole, we decided to have sweet in here, we eat a delicious crepe and ice cream, there is a multichoice of ice creams. Lovely friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere, mingle with locals and say hello to grandad Neil! He also does cheese and ham crepes if you want. Hmmm delicious!

We'd heard of this place but didn't get round to visiting until near the end of our trip - that was a mistake! It's a lovely little place with an amazing selection of flavours, sauces and toppings. We only managed to get there twice but would probably have gone almost every day if we'd realised how delicious everything was and... More

This is a lovely wee cafe selling icecream in several flavours - I had banana split and diam, both very good. Coffee very good and ladies serving very friendly. You even get a chocolate 'puffin egg' with your coffee (liquorice covered in chocolate and a sugar shell).

We ate sushi cross the street - and actually watched this place from the window as we ate dinner, and didn't order as much so we still could fit in some crepes for dessert! And I am so glad we did, the crepes were excellent, kids had theirs with Nutella, and I tried mine with Toblerone and loved it. Great... More

We had the organic crepe with a scoop of daim ice cream. They topped the whole thing off with crunchy chocolate balls. This was really good, especially the ice cream! It would've been better if the crepe was served warm. Also, the whole thing was a bit pricey, but that's to be expected for Iceland. All in all, a good... More
