Kaupfjélagið

Time stands still at Kaupfjélagið, the old general store in Breiðdalsvík, where vintage stock is still on display. Today it sells groceries, toiletries, preserves, and other conveniences. You can also buy coffee and light meals.

Kjörbúðin

In case you forgot your toothbrush, there is a small supermarket in town where you will find all necessities. It also has some quick food options like sandwiches, which are handy for a road trip or a small picnic by the scenic beach in Garður.

Krambúðin

This classic countryside supermarket offers all the necessities for locals, including some fantastic burgers. It makes a smart pit stop before heading farther east or west, as supermarkets tend to be far apart.
