Skjól

About Skjól

Open daily from midday until 19:00, Skjól is a mid-range restaurant in South Iceland, and those hours are the main thing to plan around: this is a lunch or early-dinner stop, not a late-evening one. The south is a region most visitors cover by car, and daytime food stops help break up the longer stretches between sights.

This corner of the south is Golden Circle country, close to Geysir and Gullfoss, where a warm sit-down meal between stops is worth planning for rather than leaving to chance. Since the kitchen shuts in the early evening, treat it as the day's main meal around midday, keeping the drive back to your base for later.
