Boy oh boy, what a place! It’s definitely more than just a bar, it’s a vibrant community center with its own remarkable soul. Thanks to Terji, the owner of the bar, there’s always a great live music on the weekends - bands from all the islands come to play. And if you’re lucky, you’ll get a chance to listen to Terji himself- even if you don’t speak Faroes, you’ll understand its heartwarming words. Don’t forget to order fish&chips with your beer, it’s made out of local fresh cod and taste amazing

What a fantastic place. The people are so friendly, the food is excellent and the ambiance is a warm, traditional welcome. The Rhubarb cider is definitely worth a try. A visit to Maggie's Cafe is a must!!
