r/Reykjavik

My flight was delayed and i’m randomly here without plans. I love live music, small independent theatres, queer and trans dancing, beautiful places to smoke a cigarette, anarchist spaces, and anything punk, goth, or pro palestine.
Any recommendations?

My partner and I were in Reykjavik around 2015, and we bought a couple of these beautiful pint glasses from them, I'd love to see if they still have these or similar available. All I can remember is that it was in a old, historic building somewhere in or around the city center.

Today I saw and stopped a shoplifter in the center of Reykjavik. I stopped her just outside the store. Then I draw her back in to the shop. She was screaming. But then everything turned. People came to me and said, I was wrong. I should let her go and do nothing. Even the staff in the kiosk didn’t care at all, and came to me and said, that I shouldn’t care. Afterwards the girl was comforted by strangers and disappeared afterwards.

Is this normal? Can shoplifters just walk away free?
What do you do, when you see a shoplifter?

Hæ,

is anyone here, that has an OBD scanner and would be able to read some fault codes on Sunday?

Or is there a shop you know, that can do that and is open on sunday?

Takk fyrir!

Hello, my family and I will be in Iceland this August for the solar eclipse. We want to snowmobile and experience dogsledding while there. I’d like to know if the snow conditions on the glaciers is different than other terrain. Will there be snow on the glaciers for these activities?

I have a quick stop over in Reykjavík, just a few days and I will be with a group so I may not have a lot of personal time, BUT if there was one yarn store I could make it too… what would you suggest?
Thank you!

Hey! Idiot underground musician doing a solotrip to reykjavik this weekend, and I’ve been wanting to play a song or two somewhere. Anyone know about any open mic events? Or small pubs where I could bring my guitar for a little jam?

Going to be in town Friday, Saturday and Sunday this week.

(Would also appreciate gig recommendations! I love small venues, and genres like indie, folk, midwest emo, hardcore and black metal. But yeah please tell me if you know about any open mics!!)
