SKOOL BEANS in Vík is a highly-rated, quirky cafe known for its unique setting inside a yellow school bus. The overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many reviewers calling it the best coffee they've had in Iceland. The menu is frequently praised for its creativity, particularly the decadent hot chocolates like the lavender version and the 'hot chocolate with the works.' Guests consistently highlight the high-energy, friendly staff and the cozy, charm-filled interior packed with books and souvenirs. While the resident cat, Jeffrey, is a major draw for many, some visitors note he isn't always present during their visit.
