Café by day, dance club by night with DJs
"One of Reykjavík’s oldest bars, Kaffibarinn operates as a coffee shop by day and transforms at night into a staple of the nightlife scene with high-energy DJ sets, a hip atmosphere and dancing — the place to see and be seen." - Vanessa Wilkins Vanessa Wilkins Vanessa Wilkins is a travel and lifestyle writer with an extensive background in digital journalism.

"Mellow café by day, raucous party bar at weekends, Kaffibarinn is one of Reykjavík’s quintessential nightspots. Marked with a London Underground logo on the outside, it boasts celebrity associations including Blur’s Damon Albarn (who rumor has it once owned shares in the place) and filmmaker Baltasar Kormákur (director of 101 Reykjavík , among others). Opensince the 1990s, Kaffibarinn certainly knows how to throw a party, especially when tables and chairs are pushed aside to create a makeshift dance floor and local DJs (and the occasional live show) make the crowds go wild."

"I head to Kaffibarinn for nightlife — it’s a café that transforms into a dance club on the weekend and is one of my favorite spots around Laugavegur for a lively evening." - Matthew Kepnes
