My coworkers and I stopped here for dinner because of the good reviews on Tripadvisor. We were not disappointed! The guys got hot dogs and said they were delicious. I ordered a hamburger with all the toppings: 2 sauces, pickles, fresh onion, fried onions, pickles, and red cabbage. I wasn't sure I would like it with all of that on there, but it was amazing! We are talking about making it our regular place to eat. The fries were great too! Make sure to get the "spice" on the fries. This place is definitely worth the money spent...1100 krona for a burger, fries, and Coke. The staff was very helpful and nice. We enjoyed our visit.

Thank you so much for your review Stormycj. You´re brave to try on the traditional Villaburger, and we´re glad you enjoyed it.
Good value for money is what we aim for!

Best fast food in Iceland. If you travel to Iceland and miss Pulsuvagninn you are missing out. There are no finer burger or hotdog places here. We all love it, they also sell curly wurly :)

I'm a local and I come for the amacing burgers and great service. This is not a fine dining cuisine experiance. This is a come get some fast, reliable, good service food that satisfies your every fast food needs. Look out for the traditional Icelandic hot dog and the traditional Pulsuvagninn hamburger with hot dog topings.

I myself am a local resident of Keflavik but I lived for 5 years in Denmark and this was always the first thing I had to eat after I came back for vacation. Great people and fantastic hamburgers. Recommend it to everyone.
