Our verdict

Smiðjan Brugghús is worth choosing in Vík when the plan is casual, group-friendly, and beer-led. The 10 Icelandic craft beers on draft are the main draw, with burgers, BBQ ribs, hot wings, and pulled pork fitting the brewpub format. It is a weaker pick for formal occasions or diners looking for a chef-driven tasting menu.
