We've compiled the best of the best in Mývatn Region - browse our top choices for the top things to see or do during your stay.
If you're exhausted after a long day of driving between all the wonders of the Mývatn region, Daddi has you covered. This small hole-in-the-wall pizza place is a local favorite and offers quick delectable bites. If you're brave, order the one with smoked trout on it.
There's only one item on the menu at this unassuming little eatery and it's fresh, flakey, and guaranteed to hit the spot during a long day of sightseeing. Make sure you get your fries with "kokteilsósa"—a beloved Icelandic blend of ketchup, mayo, and secret spices.
There’s a lively, old-fashioned tavern vibe going on at this “Old Farm,” where you can enjoy a cold beer and a pub lunch in the comfort of one of their velvet-upholstered, vintage wooden chairs. The menu features a range of popular classics like burgers and fish-and-chips, with a few local specials thrown in like Icelandic flatbread and meat soup.
The terrific views of Stakhólstjörn pond and the Skútistðagígur pseudocraters are reason enough to visit this no-frills café, but the homemade fare comes in at a close second. Along with their delightful meat soup and cakes, they also offer a cozy selection of souvenirs and beer brewed on-site.
