SKÝ Bar

If you’re looking for the perfect spot to sip, snack, and soak up some of Reykjavik’s best views, Ský Bar is where it’s at. Located on the eighth floor of Center Hotel Arnarhvoll, this chic yet welcoming bar is all about pairing great drinks with unbeatable views.

With beautiful views of Mount Esja, and the shimmering Faxafloi bay, Ský Bar isn’t just a bar, it’s an experience!

Let’s talk snacks. While Ský Bar doesn’t serve full meals, their bar snack menu is the perfect accompaniment to your drinks. Whether you’re feeling peckish or just need a nibble while taking in the view, they’ve got you covered.

The chilli rice crackers and olives are light and flavorful, ideal for casual grazing. For something a bit more indulgent, try the macaron platter, offering sweet bites to balance out your drink. And for those craving a classic, there’s Lay's salted chips, nachos with guacamole, or a beautifully arranged charcuterie platter featuring Icelandic cheeses and cured meats, a nod to local flavors.

Ský Bar’s cocktail menu is a mix of creative concoctions and timeless favorites. The highlights are definitely the fruity and refreshing Berry Clover Club, the bold and herbal Gin Basil Smash, and the tropical classic Malibu Piña Colada.

If you like vodka, you should totally go for the Lady Marmalade, featuring Icelandic orange marmalade and a velvety egg white finish.

Whiskey lovers will enjoy the timeless Mint Julep, while fans of sparkling drinks can’t go wrong with the Aperol Spritz or the floral Hugo Spritz. Non-drinkers are also in for a treat, with mocktails like the zesty Virgin Basil Gin Smash or the nostalgic Shirley Temple.

Not a cocktail person? No problem. Ský Bar offers an impressive selection of wine, beer, and strong drinks. From a crisp glass of white wine to a rich Icelandic beer, there’s something for every palate.

Their curated list of spirits ensures you’ll find the perfect pour, whether you’re into whiskey, gin, or something in between.

While the menu is reason enough to visit, it’s the view that makes Ský Bar unforgettable. With floor-to-ceiling windows, you’ll feel like you’re floating above the city. Whether you’re watching the sun set over the harbor or catching the northern lights in winter, the scenery here is just magical.

Ský Bar strikes the perfect balance of style and comfort. It’s a place to unwind, enjoy great drinks, and admire Reykjavik’s beauty from above. Whether you’re catching up with friends, celebrating a special occasion, or just treating yourself, Ský Bar is a must-visit.
