We accidentally visited Hofn and since we were hungry, we decided to stop by at this place. What a great decision this turned out to be! Fish & chips were absolutely amazing, just like the lobster sandwich and sweet potatoes on the side! To sum...it up, we ordered two milkshakes which were so creamy and delicious! It's also worth to mention that prices at this cute little place are very reasonable for Icelandic standards! Would recommend this place to everyone!More

Accidentally found this place during our stay in Höfn, just a great little diner with good food. Also loved the milkshakes! Wish I could’ve had more!

Recently came here for supper. Staff members were very welcoming and helpful. Diner is very small and cannot alot of people. We had to wait a few minutes for a place to stay. No big deal. Very worth it!

The best lobster baguette! We actually drove here out of our original route since we got 2 different recommendations by locals to eat here. The lobster baguette was amazing and worth the drive! Definitely recommended.

Great food with great prices! We wanted a more affordable diner place to eat and happy we picked this one. Large variety of food (there were a few vegan labels but I didn't pay that much attention) and drink options. We all enjoyed our food...and service was fast and friendly. The place got very busy by the time we were leaving and it is not a large place so possibly be prepared to wait a bit for some good food.More

If you are at Hofn and you want to eat something less expensive, this place is a good option. Inspired by the American diners, it has a lot of options for street food. Lobster baguette and chicken burger are delicious.

Stopped here for dinner at the end of a long drive. It’s more than a fast food diner! The service was friendly and quick and the food was excellent and great value with plenty of choice. There are options for children and also plenty of...gluten free food. Definitely recommend!More

Quaint and casual diner. Great sandwiches and a nice cold Appelsín to wash it down. Friendly staff, quick service, and delicious food! The chicken sandwich is one of the better fried chicken sandwiches I've ever had.

Delicious food! We were a little late in Hofn and this was the only place with the kitchen opened at that hour. I had an amazing Lobster Sandwich with fried sweet potatoes. My friends had the fish burger and the pesto chicken and they were...also very tasty. Prices are very reasonable. You definitely should try this place!More

The “BLT our way” has been deemed the best GF meal on the trip so far! The group also had non GF lobster sandwich and the ham/cheese sandwich. Super yummy. Sweet potato fries were great. Ended with “dipped cones” reminisced of USA Dairy Queen. Loved...it all!!More
