Our Take
Reykjavik's White Russian Theatre
The Big Lebowski Bar is Reykjavik's most theatrical themed bar — built entirely around the 1998 Coen Brothers film. White Russians are the signature drink (24 variations on the menu), film memorabilia covers every wall, and the bowling-alley aesthetic runs through the entire room.
The cocktail program is built around White Russian variations. The crowd is international tourists 25-50 and visiting film tourists. Cash and card friendly. Walk-in friendly.
Pair with Apotek after for a more precise cocktail experience.
