il forno di Gerasimo — Restaurant in Municipality of Mykonos

Il Forno di Gerasimo, or "ο φούρνος του Γεράσιμου," is a delightful bakery located in Mykonos that offers an array of mouthwatering treats, but the real star of the show for me was their banoffee pie.

From the moment I took my first bite, I knew I was in for a treat. The banoffee pie was simply the best I’ve ever had. The crust was perfectly crumbly and buttery, providing a delicious base that held the delightful filling beautifully. The combination of ripe bananas, rich toffee, and whipped cream was heavenly, creating a harmonious blend of flavors and textures. Each bite was indulgent without being overly sweet, making it incredibly satisfying.

The presentation of the pie was lovely, showcasing the layers of bananas and toffee with a generous topping of fresh whipped cream that added a lightness to the dessert. It was clear that a lot of care and attention went into crafting this delicious treat.

In addition to the banoffee pie, Il Forno di Gerasimo serves an impressive selection of amazing pastries and pizzas, all made in-house with the freshest ingredients. The pastries are a delightful mix of traditional Greek favorites and innovative creations, ensuring there’s something for everyone. Each pastry is crafted with precision, resulting in flaky, flavorful treats that are perfect for any time of day.

Their pizzas are equally impressive, featuring a variety of toppings on a perfectly baked crust that strikes the right balance between crispy and chewy. Whether you’re in the mood for something classic or a more adventurous flavor combination, you’ll find plenty of options to satisfy your cravings.

The ambiance at Il Forno di Gerasimo is charming and inviting, with a cozy atmosphere that encourages you to relax and enjoy your treats. The staff was friendly and welcoming, eager to help us choose from their enticing selection of pastries, baked goods, and pizzas.

In conclusion, Il Forno di Gerasimo is a must-visit spot for anyone with a sweet tooth or a craving for delicious pizza. The banoffee pie is an absolute standout that will leave you craving more, but don’t overlook their amazing pastries and pizzas made with care and passion. If you find yourself in Mykonos, be sure to stop by this charming bakery for a delicious taste of their offerings—you won’t be...

Best bakery in Mykonos, and probably all of Greece in my opinion! I stumbled upon Gerasimo’s on our first day in Mykonos, and when you find a great place there’s no need to try anywhere else. So, I went here everyday during our stay (5 days) for a sweet treat and was delighted every time - it was one of the highlights of my days. My favourite was the orange pie which I’ve never had before and now think it’s my favourite dessert! I had this 3 times while in Mykonos (I also tried one in Athens after and was seriously disappointed with how stark the difference in quality and flavour were). The mini chocolate brownies, banoffee pie and pistachio cream pie were also very delicious! Sadly I didn’t get the chance to try everything. My sister had the carrot cake and said it was the best she’d ever had. Gerasimo is also very friendly when shown that same level of kindness. Highly recommend his bakery if you’re...

Excellent bakery with modern décor serving bread, cakes and pastries, coffee to go, pizza and a few delicious homemade meal options. Tucked around a corner in the centre, with beautiful shaded whitewashed steps to sit on outside. We came for an excellent freddo espresso (iced coffee, black or with milk) for only €2,50 - one of the best value we've found in Mykonos town so far - and returned the next day for lunch and a cake! The main meals seem to vary, but today we had pastitsio (like moussaka but with pasta instead of aubergine) and delicious oven-baked tomato and pepper stuffed with rice and herbs. Definitely one of the best value lunch options I've found so far - the mains were about €8 or 9 and very filling. Traditional galaktoboureko (filo pastry with semolina custard) for dessert was €4. One of my favourite food finds in...
