About Grái Kötturinn

Timing matters at Grái Kötturinn: this downtown Reykjavík café opens at 08:00 and closes at 14:30, every day of the week. It is a cosy, charming spot by its own description, and those morning-heavy hours make it a breakfast and brunch place rather than anywhere you plan dinner.

Starting a touring day with a proper cooked breakfast beats another hotel buffet, and a compact downtown café is exactly the setting for it. Early risers heading out on a Golden Circle or south-coast run can fuel up before the roads fill; anyone on a slower schedule can let a late brunch stretch on until the shops open.
