Kaffi Krókur - HistoryThe night before January 18th 2008 Kaffi Krókur burned down and was totally destroyed. The house is one of the most remarkable houses of Sauðárkrókur. It was built in 1887-1890 by Vigfús Guðmundsson but he sold it right away to the sheriff Jóhannes Ólafsson. While the house was being built it was used as a storage and also for a live performance.
Today the house has been renovated and is owned and run by the same people that own Restaurant Ólafshús.
