KEX Hostel Bar

عن هذا المكان KEX Hostel Bar

KEX Hostel Bar is one of Reykjavik's most celebrated bars — the ground-floor bar of the KEX Hostel, which occupies a converted biscuit factory (kex means 'biscuit' in Icelandic) on Skúlagata near the harbour. The bar draws a mixed crowd of hostel guests, local Reykjavik creatives, and international visitors who have heard about its excellent Icelandic craft beer selection and its atmosphere of unpretentious design sophistication. KEX is not a gay bar, but it has a firmly LGBTQ+-welcoming character and is popular with international queer visitors who appreciate its combination of quality, character, and the specific social energy of Reykjavik's most internationally connected bar. The harbour-area location, the exposed brick interior, and the long communal tables make KEX one of the easiest places in Reykjavik to start a conversation with fellow travellers — LGBTQ+ and otherwise.
