RACISTS.
I'd like to begin by expressing how much I've enjoyed my time in Skopelos thus far. The experiences I've had and the people I've met have been overwhelmingly positive, with one notable exception that I feel compelled to share. Unfortunately, I encountered a deeply unpleasant incident during my visit, which I can only describe as one of the most disheartening encounters with racism I've ever experienced.
My wife and I were simply looking to enjoy a peaceful afternoon with a cup of coffee and some ice cream. However, the moment we stepped into the establishment, it was evident that something was amiss. The waiter who approached our table seemed inexplicably irritated with me, despite having done nothing to warrant such a reaction.

It's one of the rare gems in Skopelos where you can enjoy both excellent food and good cocktails under the same roof. I had a Bloody Mary, which is my second favorite cocktail, and it was quite decent. The staff is incredibly friendly and engaging, often sparking up conversations and making everyone feel welcome. Whether you're a local or just visiting, this place should be...
