Top restaurants in Lefkada Island

A wide range of restaurants are awaiting for guests in Lefkada, from tradional Greek taverns to modern restaurants.

Many local restaurants are well known for delicious foods, shortcrust meals, and housewines. Most of the taverns are located in the largest towns, such as in Nidri, Lefkada town, Vasiliki, etc, and there are no such significant villages in Lefkada Island, which has no restaurants or coffee bars at all.

Best Lefkada taverns and restaurants

In Lefkada town most of the taverns can be find next to the seaside promenade, near the port, and in the streets and squares of the town center. Some restaurants were built in narrow alleys of the old town, offering old fashioned and idyllic atmospheres.

Nidri hosts most of the taverns in its port, where the most famous restaurants were built literally next to each other. Taverns are waiting for guests next to pedestrian road (on the main street) as well, but these are slightly smaller and simpler restaurants, offering fast foods, such as gyros or souvlaki.

If you wanna try other flavours than traditional Greek in Nidri, you can taste cuisine of other nations, such as Italian or English kitchens.
