Kaffi Hólar offered a variety of dishes made from fresh produce from the local area, and reasonably priced to suit any traveller.
Kaffi Hólar was located within the main building of the University, seating 55 people. It offered a breakfast, lunch buffet and a menu.
Try the arctic char or the lamb tenderloin, you’ll thank us later!
Or, if you have a taste for history, we have a delicious desert inspired by Guðmundur the Good, a 13th century bishop of Hólar who was renowned and reveered for his kindness and hospitality.
