Chania - Taverns

There are endless options to enjoy the unsurpassed Cretan cuisine in Chania, the region that gives the food experience a completely different meaning.

Eating in modern or traditional restaurants, which offer traditional or more gourmet delicacies, accompanied by the essential Cretan raki, will blow your mind. Traditional taverns by the sea or on the beach of Chania's old harbor, in seaside villages or at the squares of mountain villages, or even in the most remote and "secret" corner of the city or the countryside, you have the option to taste delicious food in your preferred environment.

You will find meze restaurants and ouzeri mainly in the narrow streets of the old city and also at the sea front of all the coastal villages of Chania. The food here may be offered in limited quantities, but no one limits you to order as much as you want!

During your stay in Chania you have to visit the local bakeries and pastry shops and try some of the tastiest snacks and sweets, which are now an integral part of the Cretan cuisine: we are talking of course about the kaltsounakia, that you can eat as fast food, but also the delicious lichnarakia...

Cooked with the freshest ingredients of the Cretan land and recipes that make the Cretan diet one of the best in the world - it is up to you to find exactly what suits you.
