Brauð & Co
Just down the street from Hallgrimskirkja, this artisan bakery inside the graffiti-covered storefront became an instant classic when it opened in 2016. Their additive-free sourdough and pastries are something you will crave long after you leave Iceland, but don’t miss their snúður (cinnamon buns), made with local, high-fat butter and often flavored with seasonal ingredients like blueberry or almonds. Expect a line out the door in the mornings, though additional locations, including at the Hlemmur food hall, have helped disperse the wait.
