22 Bar
The friendly staff at this quirky, welcoming bar makes everyone feel like a regular. Located on Laugavegur Street in the heart of Reykjavik, 22 Bar sits on the first floor of the same building as Kiki Queer Club.
Kiki Club, a cultural cornerstone of Reykjavik’s queer community, has expanded by opening 22 Bar on the bottom floor as a more relaxed option for a fun time. 22 Bar is a queer-friendly venue emphasizing a calmer place for people to sit down for drinks or snacks in a cozy atmosphere while having the option of dancing upstairs!
Kiki Club and 22 Bar jointly host events, thus expanding and strengthening the social life of the queer community.
The historic house these two bars are located in was built in 1905 and has been home to many restaurants and bars through the years; the longest-running was a bar named 22, frequented by the queer community, artists, and bohemians from 1988-2006.
The bar opened again in 2024 after an 18-year hiatus to much joy from locals as a perfect fusion of old and new.
Looking for a great happy hour in Reykjavik? 22 Bar has an extended happy hour daily for beer and wine between noon and 8 PM and cocktail deals from 5 PM to 9 PM.
Their drinks menu features classics such as Cosmopolitans and spritzes, and of course, crisp Icelandic beer or draft, including Bríó and Lite.
22 Bar offers light snacks such as soup, perfect for warming up after a brisk walk in Reykjavik. Their simple and savory menu features the renowned Icelandic meat soup, a must-try for those wishing to taste authentic Icelandic cuisine. You can also opt for a plate of bread, pesto, and cheeses, which are perfect for sharing. 22 Bar offers VIP Club members 50% off all food!
Whether you want to stop by for a coffee and cake, warm up with Icelandic meat soup or catch up with friends over a drink before heading upstairs for an unforgettable night at Kiki Queer Club, 22 Bar provides a cozy ambiance, delicious drinks, and savory snacks.
