SystrakaffiSystrakaffi, located in the charming village of Kirkjubaejarklaustur in southern Iceland, is a welcoming family-run restaurant that offers a true taste of Icelandic hospitality. 

This bistro has become a favorite stop for both locals and travelers exploring the South Coast. With a warm atmosphere and a menu that highlights fresh, locally sourced ingredients, this cozy spot provides a memorable dining experience.

Arctic charThe menu at Systrakaffi is all about celebrating local flavors with a playful twist. You can’t go wrong with the arctic charr, which comes fresh from the waters nearby. Served with baby potatoes, Parisian carrots, and a silky white wine sauce, it’s basically Iceland on a plate. 

If you want to start with something fancy, the char tartare on crostini or the beef carpaccio (with sundried tomatoes and roasted almonds for an extra kick) will have your taste buds dancing before the main event.

PizzaIf you’re a pizza fan, prepare to fall in love. Their handmade dough serves as the perfect base for creations like the “Mother Superior”, piled high with cheese, pepperoni, ham, onion, mushrooms, pineapple, peppers, and bacon. Yes, it’s as epic as it sounds.

Vegetarian or vegan? No worries, Systrakaffi has you covered. The vegan salad is a colorful bowl of goodness with a beetroot and quinoa patty, sundried tomatoes, olives, and pumpkin seeds.

 Or go for the beetroot and quinoa vegan burger, served with crispy sweet potato fries that’ll have you licking your fingers.

Dessert at SystrakaffiOf course, no meal is complete without dessert, and Systrakaffi knows how to end things on a sweet note. Their lava chocolate soufflé, oozing with molten chocolate and paired with vanilla ice cream, is an absolute must-try. Or, for a touch of Icelandic tradition, check out their selection of homemade cakes.

So whether you’re stopping in for lunch, dinner, or just dessert (no judgment), Systrakaffi got you covered.
