Bergsson Mathús

Bergsson is one of few places in Iceland that takes brunch seriously. Guests can order free-range eggs, greenhouse-grown veggies, and slow-baked bread with Icelandic butter and house-made compotes. The decor here is distinctly Scandinavian-sleek, but large tables are blanketed in colorful magazines and daily newspapers that pass between diners. Sunday mornings are typically packed with the stroller set, so take your latte to go and wander just half a block to Tjornin—the capital's scenic pond—where locals are regularly feeding the resident ducks.
