About Kopar Restaurant - by the old harbor

Down by the old harbour in central Reykjavík, Kopar is an upscale restaurant working with Icelandic and Nordic cooking — fish, seafood and steak, with vegetarian and vegan options on the menu too. It is a trendy spot with a view, one of the harbour-side addresses within easy walking distance of downtown hotels.

The old harbour is where whale-watching and puffin boats cast off, so a table here pairs naturally with a day on the water. As one of the dressier addresses on the quay, it reads as the choice for a special dinner or a marker occasion — a birthday, a last night in Iceland — rather than a routine weekday bite.
