Hofsós is one of the oldest trading centres in Iceland. Recently, many of the houses surrounding the harbour have been renovated, giving the village back the spirit of the trading centre of bygone days. Sólvík was the home of the agent for the Danish monopoly and previously stood in Grafarós, which was a trading centre from 1835-1915. It was moved to Hofsós and erected in its current location in 1920.

Dagmar has been running Sólvík for about 10 years. She says the courses she has on the menu are her clients’ most popular choices over past years. The restaurant is open every day, all day long in summer, offering a full menu and she is happy to open for groups of 4 or more in winter. – KB
