Gaukurinn ★ 4.0
Gaukurinn on Tryggvagata is a scrappy Reykjavik live venue and bar, hosting rock gigs, drag and DJ nights with some of the cheaper beer downtown.
Signature drink: Cheap beer
Food: None
Tip: A long-running grassroots venue for new bands and drag nights. The crowd mixes locals and visitors.

Signature drink: Beer and live acts
Food: Light bites

The long bar at Apotek on Austurstraeti mixes well-made cocktails in the old first-pharmacy building, one of central Reykjavik's more grown-up drinking rooms.
Signature drink: Classic and house cocktails
Food: Small plates
Tip: The happy hour at the marble bar is among the best central deals. Quieter and more polished than the clubs.
