Mezzo — Restaurant in Municipality of Mytilene

Tourist friendly English speaking

Firstly, google maps is misleading. The lane/alley doesn't end here, you can walk all the way through to Komninaki past 'catwalk fashion' so Mezzo can be accessed from that street or Archipelagous.

Secondly, this joint is fully 24hr. 3am ice cream? Not a problem. 5am coffee? Did that. The English menu is on a roof beam, so as you walk through the door, look straight forward, then way, way up.

This place is very busy for delivery so when you've ordered at the counter, step back. Way back. You are just in the way. It took me a few days to work this out so learn from my error. When your order is done they'll call you to come pay.

The iced coffees are great, the coffee is Illy so it's decent quality. You can also get great wraps and sandwiches here. The team speak excellent English so you will survive. They are also on Fagi, which is the Greek equivalent of deliveroo, so you can get a Mezzo delivered to your hotel/airbnb. They even deliver coffee in clever little saddlebag carriers.

The seating area goes down the alley and into a side area called Mezzo lab which is the sit down restaurant area. You will always find a seat or bar table. The toilet is through the seated area outside not in the part with the ice cream counter.

And that's pretty much everything you...

24 hours open and located in the center of town beside all bars and cafeterias. There are so many great snacks like many kind of pies (cheesepies, cheese ham pies, choco croissant) handmade pizza, sandwiches, Arabic pies. Also there are special family size pizzas and great sweet or salty crepes. Finally you can get a nice ice cream. You can eat there, or take away or you can make your order by phone...

The friendliness of the waitress made us choose to eat at the mezzo. The family pizza can be consumed by 4 people easily. We assumed it was going to be an okay pizza but when it arrived, I nearly fell off my chair. Delicious! Still, it is the waitress's personality made the place pleasant. I forgot to ask her name....
