About Pylsubarinn í Hafnarfirði

Pylsubarinn í Hafnarfirði means 'the hot dog bar in Hafnarfjörður', and the name says it all. Hot dogs occupy an oddly central place in Icelandic eating habits, so a spot given over to them is more mainstream here than it might sound. You'll find it in Hafnarfjörður, on the southern side of the capital area.

Hafnarfjörður sits on the road between Keflavík airport and Reykjavík, so a quick, cheap bite here works either on the way in from the flight or out toward the Reykjanes sights. Hot dogs are the local fast-food default, eaten standing or in the car, which makes this a pause between stops rather than a meal you build a day around.
