Shutting down

Even though most of the shelves were half empty you could still find a lot of good vegan products. It was an amazing experience not looking at the ingredients to check if it's vegan. Unfortunately they are shutting down the store.

No checking labels required

So exciting when you can walk into a grocery store and not have to check any labels! An experience I have never had before. Many options but a bit overpriced.

All Vegan Supermarket

Vegan búðin in Iceland, the largest supermarket on the planet that exclusively sells vegan products, is a big step in the right direction for all who advocate for a better world for animals. Having a supermarket dedicated to vegan products not only provides a wide variety of options for vegans but also promotes a more sustainable lifestyle.
You will not be disappointed because they have an impressive variety of products, including all the renowned brands. The staff is friendly and the owner, Daniel Ivanovici, like his predecessor, has a vision that all vegans share.
I spoke with the owner, who told us that running a supermarket competing with larger supermarkets that only offer a limited selection of vegan products is a considerable challenge. Therefore, it's essential for the vegan community to support and promote this unique supermarket.
Vegan búðina is a positive step towards a better world for animals and a more sustainable future.

Pros: Great variety, Owner with a great vision, Big step in the vegan direction

Kann man mal vorbeischauen

Wenn man in der Nähe ist, dann sollte man auf jeden Fall mal vorbeischauen. Ich finde es grundsätzlich gut und unterstützenswert, dass alles vegan ist und man nicht überlegen braucht.
Dennoch war ich etwas enttäuscht. Viele Regale waren ganz oder fast leer. Einzig die Auswahl an Tiefkühlprodukten fand ich überraschend groß. Die Süßigkeitenabteilung war sehr überschaubar, da hat man zB bei Netto eine größere Auswahl.

Small corner in Reykjavik

A good discovery in Reykjavik, everything is vegan so you don’t have to worry about checking labels 😆 I also found my favourite vegan cookies (that unfortunately are no longer available in Portugal)

Many choices

A bit overpriced but you can find many other things that other groceries stores don't have. A bit far from the centre

An all-vegan supermarket

Imagine our surprise when we - two vegan roadtrippers visiting from the UK for two weeks - discovered such a huge vegan supermarket in Reykjavik. Literally stocks everything you could imagine. Pricey of course so you'll want to hit up Bonus for your staples and just pick up a few treats here.

All Vegan Grocery

Best selection of items that I’ve ever seen. Warm and welcoming staff as well. Picked out items for a day trip. Vegan tuna salad, aged cheddar, Milano style salami, roasted almonds, Icelandic salt and chocolate. Outstanding!!

All vegan grocery store!

I was so happy to learn that I'd be traveling to another country and have access to an all vegan grocery store. I love walking into a store and not having to check ingredients for everything I'm interested in buying.
Loved the selection. Some of it reminded me of home, and some of it was excitingly new 😄

Vegan Budin - 1,000 Stars!

This store is incredible! It is the largest 100% vegan grocery store I’ve been to in my entire life … and I’ve been to many around the world.

VB stock products from all over the world. I saw many of my staples from the US and the UK as well as many products from around Europe. Some products I would have expected weren’t stocked, but that doesn’t matter because VB carry so many products and alternatives that it doesn’t even matter.

I can’t wait to share the vegan caviar I bought with friends back home. I 100% love this store!

Brilliant

Absolutely huge range of vegan items, stocked up for several days and even bought some stuff to take home that we can’t get in the UK. The staff member was lovely and explained what the different pastry options were. I ended up getting one of each. There is free coffee and oat milk at the entrance. Small trolleys for toddlers to push around and a play ‘till’ whilst you are paying.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Helpful staff

We could live in Iceland because of this store.

Everything you need in a grocery store is here. Fun stuff that can’t be found elsewhere are the highlights of wandering through the aisles. Next visit, we’ll need to stay where we have access to a kitchen, as there are loads of frozen food items we’d love to try.

Loads of options

I can't have a trip to Iceland without visiting the Vegan buðin! This store has so much! There are plenty of oven/freezer dishes, and a lot of vegan cheeses and sausages. They even have healthcare products.

During the week, they sell cheese breads and some sort of cinnamon buns with glaze. Both of which I really recommend.

Pros: Everything is fully vegan, A lot of options

Cons: A bit outside of the city centre

A dream

WOW!! Vegan haven right here. We visited at the end of our trip, wish we would have stopped earlier. Definitely stock up on some goods before setting out on the ring road. Several rows of freezers, dried goods, large fridge section with protein and vegan cheese/dairy items. Also has toiletries and soap refills if needed.
