Snaps Bistro on Postcard

"This French-style bistro is a perennial favorite for locals, who come here for breakfast, brunch, dinner, or just drinks. The menu has a Scandinavian focus with some international offerings—hence regular dishes like catch of the day and a hearty fish soup can be found alongside high-quality steaks, club sandwiches, and moules marinières . Lunch specials keep the place busy during the week, andthe weekend brunches are a big draw too. The bar's offerings are equally balanced, with a range of beers, wines, and cocktails as well as fresh smoothies. Pleasant service, a classic, upmarket interior, and a generally convivial atmosphere conspire to make this bistro a great all-rounder."

Looking for breakfast and found this place open with buffet (European). Food was great, with variety, coffee and juices. Staff were great! Leo was great.

What a wonderful brunch!! Amazing hamburger and eggs Benedict, very friendly service and a bustling bistro atmosphere. Definitely one of best meals in town

I had an incredibly disappointing experience at this restaurant. It over an hour for our food to arrive. Not a single staff member bothered to apologize or even acknowledge the delay. We had to call them down and let them know about the situation. To make matters worse, we watched as four other tables—seated well after us—were served before we were, making it clear that our order was either forgotten or completely mishandled. When our food finally arrived, it was far from worth the wait—bland, unremarkable, and certainly not up to the standard you would expect given the prices and supposed reputation of this place. Poor service and mediocre food make this an experience I won’t be repeating. Spend your time and money elsewhere.

Tuna Tartar is good. The rest are just ok including the chicken breast and the onion soup.

The restaurant is a gem! The fish of the day is a culinary delight, and the cocktails are top-notch. The staff is friendly, creating a welcoming atmosphere. While it attracts tourists, it's heartening that locals mostly choose this spot, attesting to its authentic appeal.

Lovely place for dinner! Staff are very polite and attentive, very welcoming environment Food was absolutely delicious - yes it's a little pricey but the portions are huge and so so tasty I had the goats cheese and the caesar salad They very kindly boxed up what I couldn't finish so I get to enjoy it all over again! Also by pure chance the lovely gentleman that served me was from my local area back home! So that was nice to chat to someone about that Over all, a fantastic experience with great food and a great atmosphere with staff who clearly enjoy what they do, would absolutely recommend

If you want French or Cozy, you come here in Iceland. Absolutely fantastic restaurant run with love. Definitely get the duck salad.

Hot breakfast with eggs, bacon, fruits, etc. I still think it was 5 star worthy, but they did run out of eggs (which replenished almost immediately) and bacon (which was out for a while) - so 3 stars on service.
