Top 10 Places to Eat North of Athens
-
1. Taverna Vakhos
Though Delphi’s sites and scenery are fantastic, the same cannot be said for its culinary offerings. This family-run establishment is the exception. It cooks good taverna fare accompanied by views across the Corinthian Gulf.
-
2. Topiki Gefsi
Respectable taverna food and a nice view, even if the service does leaves something to be desired.
-
3. Barko tis Maritsas
A most popular taverna, open year round on the beach. Mussels are the local speciality – baked, fried or served in sauce. The homemade vegetable pies are also good.
-
4. Taverna Porto
This waterfront taverna makes a good stop after a day of swimming. Feast on large plates of cheap, tasty local seafood.
-
5. Karaouli
A simple, traditional, delicious taverna. Be sure to try the spicy Arachova sausage and stuffed peppers.
-
6. Kaplanis
Flavourful taverna classics in a rather fancy room with gilded chandeliers. In spring, be sure to try the fried courgette (zucchini) flowers. Year round, sample the fromila (barbecued cheese).
-
7. Babis
A good place to warm up on a cold winter’s weekend – the crackling fireplace casts a glow over everything. Go for a bowl of hot, aromatic stifado stew (see Stifado).
-
8. Emboriko
People come here après ski to warm up with coffee, drinks and snacks. Simple evening meals include pasta, casseroles and steaks.
-
9. Paradissos
An unpretentious taverna on the road to the northernmost tip of Evia. Enjoy the verdant setting, tender lamb and freshly dug potatoes.
-
10. Kapetanios
Sit by the church and sample a wonderful array of seasonal seafood, raw or fried with cheese.
