Small-plate dining in the Spanish and Basque mould has a modest but committed presence in downtown Reykjavik. Tapas Barinn on Vesturgata is the long-running name for shared plates and sangria, while Skreid on Laugavegur leans into a Basque pintxos register. Both suit a grazing, drink-paired evening in the 101 core.
Skreid on Laugavegur is a Basque tapas room from the Sagardi Group, a small Reykjavik counter pouring natural wine alongside pintxos and bacalao a few steps.
OrderManchego with honey, salted bacalao and a few small plates to share, with a Basque txakoli pour.
TipFrom the brothers behind Spain's Sagardi Group. Tapas-and-wine pace, evenings only into late.
