Christmas dinner santa picChristmas dinner in Reykjavík

Dinner at one of the finest restaurants in Reykjavík, but at the same time cozy and nice. This is a nordic  cuisine and traditional with it‘s own unique touch, certain to make a pleasant and memorable night out for you and your company.

Icelanders are really traditional concerning the Christmas period and 24th of December is our main holiday. Most restaurants, café‘s, shops and etc are closed or have very limited service on the 24th December. The ones that are open do usually require a booking prior to arrival and some are already fully booked. That is why, we at Reykjavik Backpackers, are arranging a Christmas buffet for our guests at one of our favorite places in Reykjavík. We’ll meet up at 18:00 and walk to the restaurant where we're going to enjoy the Christmas Eve.

This year we'll be enjoying a traditional Icelandic Christmas Buffet
