Clubs in Reykjavik
Reykjavík has a large number of clubs and when one closes, another is usually very quick to take its place. There would be no point in trying to list them all, the following are only a small taste. Most of them are quite small - don't expect the big dance halls of many European capitals - but that's part of the fun, the intimate spirit of the Reykjavík nightlife.
Bakkus, Tryggvagata 22. This small watering hole pumps up the volume during the weekends and turns into a very nice (if slightly shabby-looking) place to drink and dance. �
Bar 11, Hverfisgata 18, ☎ +354 511 1180. A rock bar, often featuring live music during weekdays, and good DJs in the weekends. �
Barbara, Laugavegur 22, ☎ +354 567 7500. A friendly gay bar/club on the second and third stories of an old wooden house. �
b5, Bankastræti 5, ☎ +354 552 9600 ( ), . Caters mainly to a slightly up-market crowd. �
Dillon Rock Bar, Laugavegur 30, ☎ +354 578 2424, . 16pm-1am M-Th, 14pm-3am F-Sa. Dillon has become quite the attraction for the Icelandic music industry, rockers, students, family folk and famed Hollywood actors over the past decade. During the summertime you can enjoy a cold one in the sun in Dillon´s Beergarden and catch outdoor festivals over the summer. Catch a live band, have a chat with the friendly staff or join the mixed up group on Saturday nights when the 60 year old DJ Andrea rocks the joint and join the family of friends at this century old house of fun. �
Faktorý, Smiðjustígur 6, ☎ +551 4499. A bar downstairs, and a dance venue upstairs with a soundproof door between the two. �
Hressingarskálinn, Austurstræti 20, ☎ +354 561 2240, . �
Kaffibarinn, Bergstaðarstaeti 1, ☎ +354 551 1588, . An old favorite, this club in a red two-story timber house has been around since the 1980s and remains hip as ever. It was for a period owned partly by Damon Albarn of Blur. Heavy drinking and heavy dancing. �
Kofi Tómasar frænda, Laugavegi 2, ☎ +354 551 1855. In a basement on Laugavegur. DJs here play the most popular pop of all eras from the 1960s onwards, songs people can sing along with while they dance. �
