What's In Store
Iceland Food Court Menu
Yes, there's a Costco in Iceland. One warehouse in Garðabær, just south of Reykjavík, serving a nation of 380,000 people who have embraced bulk shopping with startling enthusiasm.
The food court swaps soft serve for proper gelato (four flavors, waffle cone), keeps the iconic hot dog but makes it Icelandic, and generally operates as one of the most charming small-market Costcos on the planet. Everything costs a bit more — this is Iceland — but by local standards, the food court is a genuine bargain.
Locations: 1 warehouse (Garðabær, near Reykjavík)
Iceland-Exclusive Items
| Item | Price (ISK) | Price (~USD) | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gelato (Waffle Cone) | 399 ISK | ~$2.90 | Four rotating flavors: chocolate, mint choc chip, stracciatella, Amarena cherry. Served in a waffle cone. Replaces soft serve. |
| Icelandic Hot Dog (Pylsa) | 299 ISK | ~$2.20 | Lamb-pork-beef blend with raw onion, crispy fried onion, ketchup, pylsusinnep mustard, and remúlaði. Not your standard Costco dog. |
| Burger | 599 ISK | ~$4.40 | A proper burger available alongside the hot dog — solid, no-frills, and a relative rarity in Costco food courts worldwide |
| Four Cheese Pizza | 600 ISK/slice | ~$4.44 | A unique Iceland pizza variety — four cheese blend on the standard Costco base |
| BBQ Chicken Pizza | 600 ISK/slice | ~$4.44 | Another Iceland-specific topping — smoky BBQ sauce with chicken. Neither of these pizza varieties are available in the US. |
Shared Items (ISK pricing)
| Item | Price (ISK) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Hot Dog Combo | 299 ISK | Slightly more than $1.50 due to Iceland's high costs |
| Whole Pizza | 2,200 ISK | ~$16.27 — everything is expensive in Iceland |
| Mango Smoothie | ~399 ISK | Same as other international locations |
| Coffee | ~199 ISK | Basic drip coffee |
Notes
- Prices are higher due to Iceland's cost of living — but by Reykjavík standards, the food court is a steal
- Gelato replaces soft serve — same as Sweden and UK. Nobody misses the soft serve.
- Pylsur are a national obsession. The famous Bæjarins Beztu stand has served Bill Clinton. Costco's version is a credible pylsa at a great price.
- Smallest Costco market in the world — one warehouse, one island, 380,000 people, absurd membership penetration
- Weekend parking lot is basically an unofficial community gathering space
