LYST
LYST is a stylish café, restaurant, and event venue in North Iceland, located within the Akureyri Botanical Gardens. It's the best place for a nice brunch, lunch, or an afternoon treat in Akureyri while you explore one of the most beautiful green spaces in Iceland.
The idea behind LYST is summed up in four words: coffee, food, wine, and chocolate. Enjoy fantastic coffee and chocolate drinks, delicious small brunch dishes, and simple lunch options made with high-quality ingredients. You can also go for the cakes and pastries to soothe any sweet craving!
Start your day with a delicious coffee and a classic sourdough toast, with various options for toppings. We especially recommend the smoked char topping with cream cheese and capers, but if you're longing for something different, there are other small dishes to choose from.
For a larger meal, lunch is served between 11:30 AM and 1:30 PM, and it's best to book a table ahead of time. The menu is kept simple, allowing more creativity with each dish and ensuring the best possible ingredients.
You can choose from either meat and veggies or fish and veggies, and you can count on your meal to be delicious. For the full LYST experience, there is also an offer of a glass of wine for a lower price with your lunch!
There is a fun selection of wines at LYST, with a special emphasis on natural wines. Their happy hour is from 4 PM to 7 PM, so you can take your time exploring Akureyri, go for an afternoon stroll around the garden, and then unwind with a nice glass before dinner.
LYST isn't just a café but also an event venue. They regularly host fun events and concerts, many of which are held in support of the beautiful botanical garden. Keep an eye on their event schedule, either at the café or online, and see if something catches your interest!
If you're traveling with a group or are planning a special event, LYST can help you out! They offer a range of options to suit your needs, such as a fun breakfast buffet, pizza party, or a multi-course group dinner with wine pairings. There's even an option for a chocolate class for your group, where you can learn all about the chocolate-making process.
LYST's location within the Botanical Garden of Akureyri is incredible, and the café’s design is inspired by its natural surroundings. There are large, unique windows that flood the interior with natural light, which is decorated with wooden furniture that echoes the botanical setting. This not only provides a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere but also connects the indoors with the nature outside.
The great food, coffee, and relaxed atmosphere are why LYST is the perfect place to start your day in Akureyri, spend a cozy afternoon, or create special moments with your friends and family. It truly is a world of its own, so make sure to stop by when exploring North Iceland!
