The Reykjavík Grapevine · Best of Reykjavík 2026: Best Ice Cream, runner-up

Ísbúð Vesturbæjar

About Ísbúð Vesturbæjar

Runner up 2026 in “Best Ice Cream”. The OG 107 location is the ideal place to kick off your ísbíltur aka Icelandic tradition of driving down to grab a cone in the dead of winter or summer, (this is an all-season activity, okay?!). An old-fashioned ice cream with no air whipped into it, the gamlaís is both dense and light as it quickly melts away, making for easy one-handed driving as you savour your cone.
