After you\u2019ve finished your Westman Islands boat trip, hike or ATV ride, your attention is likely to be focused on your stomach, so let\u2019s take a look at where you might consider eating with our roundup of the best restaurants in the Westman Islands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Slippurinn<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This restaurant is one of the best in the Westman Islands. Seasonally open from May to September, it occupies a building that was once a workshop serving Heimaey\u2019s shipyard. Today, it serves up hearty Icelandic fare to visitors and locals. With an emphasis on sustainability and local produce, it\u2019s a great place to have a meal. If you like what\u2019s on your plate, you can also buy the Slippurinn cookbook and have a go at replicating their dishes back home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"669\" src=\"https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/slippurinn-1000.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1269\" srcset=\"https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/slippurinn-1000.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/slippurinn-1000-600x401.jpg 600w, https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/slippurinn-1000-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/slippurinn-1000-768x514.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">N\u00e6s<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Pronounced \u201cnice\u201d, n\u00e6s is located across the street from Slippurinn and is run by the same people. This one concentrates on small plates with a menu that changes regularly but is always exciting, whether you eat meat and fish or prefer to stick to a plant-based diet. It\u2019s a good place to go with a group of friends as you can order a variety of dishes to share.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Einsi Kaldi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Located within the Hotel Vestmannaeyjar, this upscale restaurant is a good choice if you\u2019re looking to eat somewhere epitomising sophistication and style. Chef Einar Bj\u00f6rn \u00c1rnason is skilled at what he does, specialising in seafood but also showcasing local farm produce. Anchor ingredients such as lobster, cod, lamb and beef are transformed into innovative and creative dishes in this kitchen, a must for guests and non-guests alike.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gott<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gott is successfully helmed by head chef Sigur\u00f0ur G\u00edslason and his wife Berglind Sigmarsd\u00f3ttir. Together this talented pair source local fresh ingredients, choosing fish from the local market and combining it with other ingredients to create wonderful dishes that will delight foodies. Like Slippurinn, they\u2019re keen to share their passion for food and have written several cookbooks packed with their tried and tested recipes. Find them in the heart of the town centre within easy walking distance of the ferry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"870\" src=\"https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/gott-1000.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/gott-1000.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/gott-1000-600x522.jpg 600w, https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/gott-1000-300x261.jpg 300w, https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/gott-1000-768x668.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">V\u00f6ruh\u00fasi\u00f0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The menu of this family-friendly restaurant is definitely a crowd-pleaser, not least for its kids\u2019 corner. A delicious range of pizzas is complemented by tacos and burgers; come hungry so that you also have room for the corn ribs. The funky vibe also translates to the bold and colourful d\u00e9cor. Unsurprisingly, this place gets busy, so book ahead, particularly if you\u2019re here at the peak of the summer season.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tanginn<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This harbourfront eatery boasts stellar views out over Heimaklettur to complement its delicious food. In summer, on a fine day, you might choose to dine al fresco to make the most of its location. Meat lovers will be tempted by a wide choice of burgers, lamb shank or reindeer steak, while those who prefer fish might opt for prawns or the catch of the day. Indian dishes such as butter chicken also feature on the menu. If you just can\u2019t choose, then their popular buffet is the way to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"751\" src=\"https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/tanginn-1000.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/tanginn-1000.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/tanginn-1000-600x451.jpg 600w, https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/tanginn-1000-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/volcanoatv.is\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/tanginn-1000-768x577.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kr\u00e1in&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve worked up an appetite on one of our ATV tours, then you\u2019ll be pleased to know that Kr\u00e1in is known for its filling and tasty food. Some of the dishes you might choose include meatballs, fish stew and of course Icelandic lamb. There\u2019s also a range of burgers, fried chicken and other quick eats, all served in a casual setting whose d\u00e9cor is a step up from fast food outlets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Restaurants abound in Heimaey, as you\u2019d expect from an island base where there\u2019s plenty for visiting tourists to see
