4 Best Restaurants in Westfjords, Iceland

Stúkuhúsið

$$ Fodor's choice

If you want to do yourself a favor, grab an outdoor table at Stúkuhúsið (assuming the weather is cooperating), order dinner, take in the views, and finish up with a slice of rhubarb pie. The food here is fresh and delicious, the service is friendly, and the desserts are the perfect ending to your day.

Tjöruhúsið

$$$ Fodor's choice

You never know exactly what the menu will be at the family-owned Tjöruhúsið, and for good reason: it all depends on what the local fishermen catch. You have your pick of two dinner seatings, at 7 pm and 9 pm (so don't be late), and three menu options—soup only, fish only, or fish and soup.

Vagninn

$$$ Fodor's choice

The first thing to know about this small-town, middle-of-nowhere restaurant is that you can get an amazing lamb burger. The second thing to know is that the best time to go is on weekends, when there's live music playing late into the night. There's no better way to get a real feel for the local community than when you're dancing among friendly strangers.
