Highlights
The greenhouse restaurant
Tables stand among the tomato plants, which grow all year under artificial light, powered by green energy and watered with spring water from Fljótsbotnar; pests are controlled biologically.
The tomato soup
The dish the farm is known for, served with freshly baked bread; the kitchen serves lunch from 11:30 to 16:00.
The little tomato shop and bar
Open 9:00 to 17:00 for tomato products and drinks, if you only want to stop and look.
The winebar and restaurant
Vínstofa Friðheima opens 12:00 to 22:00, with the kitchen closing at 21:00, so it also works for a late meal.
The lunch tour
The Golden Circle tour with lunch at Friðheimar is rated 4.9 out of 5 from 39 reviews on 8 November 2026; the price depends on the date and the group.
Practical info
Tips
- Book a table through the "Book a table" link on fridheimar.is or by phone on +354 486 8894; tables are reserved, not first come first served. Greenhouse visits with a short talk on greenhouse horticulture are offered to pre-booked groups; an individual diner is there for the meal and the shop. The farm is in the Golden Circle area, in the same municipality as Þingvellir (Bláskógabyggð); the main stops of the loop are: Kerið, Geysir and Gullfoss. A tour that already includes the lunch removes the driving and the booking; if you prefer to drive yourself, compare options in Golden Circle tours. For a hot spring after lunch see Fontana.
How to get there
Address: Reykholt, Bláskógabyggð, 806 Selfoss, South Iceland. By rental car (see car rental in Iceland) or on a Golden Circle tour with lunch.
