Welcome to our tavern

With good taste, work and friends, we made our tavern as good as nothing else!

A stroll at the square and at the narrow streets of our village, is enough for someone to admire the stone-built, traditional buildings of the Cretan architecture.

At this very square we decided in 1993 to set up a small stone-built tavern where we could offer the Cretan traditional cuisine as a treat to our fellow-villagers and to other friends and visitors of our village.

At the beginning we were a bit reluctant and had only eight tables for our customers, but the love of the people prompted us to make our tavern so big as it could cover our customers' needs.

In winter you can spend your nights unforgettably with good food and as old people say there's nothing better than good company, good food, good wine and the heat of a fireplace. That's why we try to offer you all these things in a cozy and hospitable place.

Most products are produced by ourselves such as the olive oil, the raki, the meat, the vegetables e.t.c.

During the hot summer months you'll get the chance to escape with us to the various beaches of the area and at the same time enjoy the magnificent scenery and the rich traditional Cretan food having a barbeque with us!

However, summer demands dinners under the moonlight and the sparkling stars, that is why we created a suitable place at the square of the village with a view of our small, traditional stove where all our food is cooked.

Moreover, in August you will have the possibility (while enjoying your meal) to watch the 10-day-festivities of our village and on the 29th we can all celebrate together at the annual feast of our village when we commemorate Saint Ioannis Rigologos.

Our daily goal is that our customers leave completely satisfied both with food and prices and that our tavern will become their favorite hangout place and their friends' too.

Our tavern is able to host any party of yours that involves 35 to 40 guests.

It would be a great pleasure to have you here with us soon, in order for you to experience our hospitality and our delicious food!

" The heart of Vafis is unique and keeps all guests in there,
he cares for them, he feeds them. "
