Hælið Café

$ Fodor's choice

In addition to superb coffee and homemade pastries, this excellent vintage hospital–theme café offers a dose of 1940s-style respite—as well as a hint of theater—in a lovely, detailed setting in the countryside. Run by actress Maria Pálsdóttir, the café doubles as an exhibition center dedicated to patients of “the Great White Plague” (tuberculosis).
