Kaffivagninn

About Kaffivagninn

Runner up 2026 in “Best Seafood”. You’d be forgiven for thinking that Kaffivagninn, with the best deck views in the old harbour, was somehow only for customers aged 65 and above. But age often comes with experience, and them old folks sure know a good thing. The gellur (cod throats) are a garlicky treat, but the fiskibollur the size of a baby’s head are the real draw here.
