They are everywhere. Quite a few are in the capital and larger towns.

Some can be found in the most unlikely places such as an old barracks in a field or a shed by the sea.

Bryggjan Grindavík
Bryggjan Grindavik is a Fisherman’s Cafe/Restaurant by the Grindavik Harbour in South West Iceland. The building was originally built in 1980 a by the brothers Kristinn and Adalgeir Johansen to house their Net Making Business. As the years passed and times changed, in 2009 the brothers transformed a portion of the building into a little cafe called Bryggjan (Pier). Since then, this little cafe won over the hearts and minds of the locals as well as travellers traveling through Grindavik. The brothers had a vision of integrating the successful cafe with the Net Making Shop even further. In 2018, new owners took over the restaurant and the building, and have now turned this vision into reality. In May 2019, the new addition, the Bryggjan Grindavik Netagerðin (Net Making Shop) dining hall opened with an extended selection of traditional Icelandic dishes in the spirit of the original little cafe, which is still operated in it´s original form.

Viking World
Vikingaheimar is the home of the Viking Ship Íslendingur (the Icelander). Built in 1996, Icelander is an exact replica of the famous Gokstadship, a remarkable archaeological find of an almost completely intact Viking ship, excavated in Norway in 1882. Captain Gunnar Marel Eggertsson was inspired to build a replica of this beautiful ship based on his own background as shipbuilder and sailor. He copied the original nail for nail. In the year 2000, with a grant from the Leifur Eiríksson Commission of Iceland, he sailed from Iceland to New York, a journey of 4200 nautical miles. His voyage brought world-wide attention to Leif Eiriksson's and Bjarni Herjólfsson's discovery of America, dated, according to the Icelandic sagas, to exactly 1000 A.D. Building Icelander was an extraordinary achievement;at 23 metres long, 5.25 meters wide and with a holding capacity of 80 tons (by modern standards), it took 2 years of effort.The sail is 130 square meters and the mast is 18 meters in length. Made from pine and oak, scholars believe this was the most common type of ship in use during the Viking Age. Vikingaheimar is also a home to the exhibition The North Atlantic Viking Saga, originally shown at the Smithsonian Institution during the summer of 2000. Launched in Washington D.C. by King Hakon of Norway, and with a State Dinner at the White House, it then traveling to 6 other cities throughout North America. This exhibition, like the sailing of Icelander, celebrated the millennium anniversary of the Viking discovery of North America, shedding light on the latest scholarly research into the Norse settlement and explorations of unknown lands.Gunnar Marel and his crew of 8 left Iceland on Icelandic Independence day, the 17th of June, with a send off from the Prime Minister of Iceland. When it finally arrived in New York on October 5th-where it was greeted by First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton and Mayor Rudolf Guiliani--the ship had made stops at 22 harbors. In addition to the festivities with kings, queens, presidents and mayors, when the ship arrived, visitors also streamed to see it while it was docked at each location, all told about 450,000 people came on board. These two fine projects, both celebrating Iceland's central role in the discovery of North America 1000 years ago by the Norse Vikings, have now found a permanent home in Vikinga Aldan (Viking Wave), the central building on the Vikingaheimar grounds. A spectacular modern building, it also offers beautiful views of the surrounding bay, Faxaflói.
