A Greek stone village set among olive groves. It is the birthplace of Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I, and its old café is famous for frankincense coffee and almond biscuits.
Zeytinliköy, formerly known as Agios Theodoros, is the birthplace of Bartholomew I, Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople. The old café on the village square is famous for its charcoal-brewed frankincense Turkish coffee, local almond biscuits and mastic pudding, and it is a must-visit for anyone coming to the island. Along the stone-paved lanes are restored stone houses, family guesthouses and small craft shops. Nearby are extensive olive groves and a church. The village is about 4 km from the main town, and you can visit it together with Tepeköy.
