The Vegan & Vegetarian Guide to Reykjavik

Where to Buy Vegetarian and Vegan Food in Iceland

The Krónan on Hallveigarstigur street in downtown Reykjavik.

Plant-based options are available at all Reykjavik grocery stores, but one grocery store stands out for its selection. Kronan offers the best range of vegan and vegetarian groceries in Iceland by far, with vegan meat substitutes, dairy alternatives, pastries, fresh ingredients, as well as the standard selection of toiletries and more.

Since Iceland is considered an expensive destination, many visitors choose to shop for groceries in Iceland so they can cook some of their meals. 

With some of the lowest prices for vegan food in Reykjavik, it’s the store visitors and locals alike choose.

If you're planning to leave more popular cities to explore the countryside of Iceland with a rental campervan, we highly recommend buying plenty of groceries before you leave Reykjavik. Vegan options can be hard to come by in the countryside, so stock up in one of the Kronan stores in the Capital Region.

There are also Kronan stores in Akureyri, in North Iceland, in Vik, along the South Coast, and in Reydarfjordur, in the Eastfjords, but Reykjavik stores tend to have the best selection.
