Cafe Palaios — Restaurant in Municipality of Milos

If you arrive in Milos then do yourself a favour and either hire a car/scooter or take the bus to the Plaka. On the bus it's a 1.80 euros from Adamas then a five minute walk to this pastry cafe. The cafe itself has both inside and exterior seating, both have a view of nothing spectacular, the service is going to be slow but what are you in a hurry for anyway, the waiter will get around to you in the order you were seated. If you try and jump the queue it is highly likely that you will be ignored and rightly so. They serve pies here, both savoury and sweet. I cannot remember the greek names for the pies but we had a tomato and herb pie to start followed by a lovely watermelon and honey pie. Both were delicious with myself preferring the savoury over the sweet but my wife loving the taste of the watermelon pie more. You pay the bill inside at the counter so don't wait for them to bring you the bill. There are many reviews stating that this place is overpriced, yes it would be if you were paying for something average but you're paying for something exceptional that you are unlikely to repeat so if you find the prices too much there are plenty of other cafes in the near vicinity. Overall a great hour spent at this place and would return in...

We ate breakfast here, and we were very disappointed.

The service was extremely slow and not organized at all. There is this guy that picks up the empty plates off the tables and he honestly couldn’t be any slower with his movements. The girl that brings the plates is also extremely slow and she doesn’t even look around the room to see if people need her. We waited 30 mins to get the menus and order, and the place wasn’t even close to being full. People from two tables next to us just stood up and left because they couldn’t handle waiting this long. We waited and ordered two omelettes that are easily the worst omelettes we have ever eaten! They were extremely greasy, tasteless and very large.

At the same time everyone had their COVID masks on their elbows, they would clean the tables with this very dirty cloth, the toilets were dirty and you were even asked to flash the toilet with a bucket!

It’s the first time I have every written a bad review, but I honestly would not recommend this place for your breakfast. Hope they improve on the service as the location and environment have...

The pastries at this place are amazing 🤩 and super fresh!

📍The Venue: It's a spacious, cozy, and charming spot. You can see the pastries they’ve recently made displayed near the cashier. There’s seating both indoors and outdoors.

🍰 What we ordered: (Sorry, I don’t remember the exact names of the dishes, but you can check the photos!)

-Orange Cake (to go): Incredible! Really sweet and moist. I had one each day I visited with my husband.

-Konafe with pastry cream: Also delicious! The balance between the cream and the base was perfect—not overly sweet.

Feta Cheese Empanada: Good! The dough was a little dry for my taste, but my husband loved it.

The pastries tend to be on the sweeter side, which I love—I definitely have a sweet tooth.

👨🏻‍🦱 Service: Decent. They're pretty relaxed and don’t check in often, which was totally fine with us 😂.

🅿️ Parking: They don’t have a dedicated parking lot, but there’s a free one nearby where you can park.

💭 Final thoughts: It was a real treat to try these pastries. Even though it's on the expensive side, I totally...
