About Samúelsson Matbar

Samúelsson Matbar sits in Selfoss in South Iceland, working the bistro register: comfort food and street food, to eat in or take away. That mix suits the way most people travel through the south — some nights you want a table, other nights you just want food back at the guesthouse.

Selfoss is where a lot of South Iceland itineraries pause for the night, sitting on the road between the Golden Circle and the south coast, so an easygoing bistro here earns its place. Couples and families winding down after a long day of waterfalls can eat in properly or carry a meal back, whichever the evening calls for.
