The experience

The experience starts here

Atmosphere is at the heart of your experience with us. A blend of refined and unfussy — relaxed enough for an everyday dinner, an occasion with friends, or simply a cocktail at the bar.

Our room is designed to wrap you in warmth and quiet style — the right frame for a meal you remember. Settle in; our team will take care of the rest.

The bar

A workshop of flavour

Premium cocktails, built from scratch.

Our bar is built around quality. We avoid artificial flavours and colours — we make our own syrups, infuse our own spirits, and only stock things we'd drink ourselves.

Kol's bar sits among the leaders in Iceland's rising cocktail scene.
