Reviewed By LizardSC - Mount Pleasant, United States

I was so excited to see the variety of items being offered in this market! Everything from handmade sweaters to soaps, lotions, Christmas ornaments, cheese, jewellery... Prices were fair, compared to other markets/shops. The lady working was very friendly and helpful, as well. Definitely worth a stop if you're looking for authentic Icelandic crafts and goods.
