Norðurbakkinn
Norðurbakkinn – Books & Café is a wonderful addition to the vibrant downtown of Hafnarfjörður and since it’s recent opening it has very well received by locals and travellers alike. It intertwines the concepts of a cosy coffee house and a bookstore and is run by Málfríður Gylfadóttir Blöndal. Her mother once owned a bookstore in Ólafsvík, West Iceland so one might say that the respect and passion for books run in the family.
Norðurbakkinn offers their guests both old and new books along with mouth-watering cakes, freshly baked bread, sandwiches, soups and salads – everyone should find something to their liking.
