Dining in Egilsstadir
Egilsstadir sits in the broad Fljotsdalsherad valley beside the legendary Lagarfljot lake, said to harbour its own monster. As the only town of any size in East Iceland (population ~2,500), it serves as the essential hub for exploring the region's spectacular fjords and Iceland's largest forest at Hallormsstadur. The dining scene is limited but steadily improving, with a few reliable spots that cater to Ring Road travellers and those heading into the East Fjords.
