Taverna Skepasti — Restaurant in Municipality of Milopotamos

A place that you understand from the very first moment that it is a traditional original tavern. Friendly family feeling and homemade aromas from the kitchen! Every day they have special dishes (available based on what they actually produced) and they are really GOOD! Every time that we stop and have lunch there the last 3 years that we discover it it was and continue to be very good! The hosts know how to do their job and when you are more than 4 people and you don’t know exactly how many portions of each food you have to order, they took responsibility for that and they count that based on their experience. Small suggestion, If they are available take: “antikristo” meat meal, wild pork (agriogourouno) with wild local avronies grass, grilled ribs (païdakia) and anthogalo (it is just like butter but much more tasty and you can spread it on your bread). They really worth congratulations for...

Easy to spot as place is right on 90 highway between Bali and Skepasti . In autums they sell water melons and melons by...

Amazing taverna within walking distance from our Air BnB (lucky us!). The food was fresh and flavorful and the atmosphere was relaxed under the trees. We dined in one night and had take away on another. Truly the best meals we had on Crete! Spiros was a wonderful host - gave us recommendations of which beaches to visit and where to go in the mountains as well. He even helped me on my first night on the island, lost and without internet, so that I could connect to the internet and contact my AirBnB host - not sure I would have made it without him! Definitely stop in for a meal or two - you’ll be...
