Peri Orexeos Taverna
...Περί Ορέξεως
Reopened in the former site of the town's oldest taverna, serving home-style stews and mountain game such as wild boar.
Located at the end of the pedestrian street 25th March Street, this taverna took over the premises of the town's oldest taverna, 'Koulou's Place', which operated for more than forty years. The menu centres on traditional home cooking: oregano and olive oil roast lamb, Smyrna meatballs, beef stewed in tomato sauce, beef and noodles in a clay pot, wild boar with wide noodles, and honey-mustard pork knuckle. Ingredients include local Kalavryta feta, sausage and extra-virgin olive oil. It won a gold award at the 'Aetoi tis Gastronomias' food awards and has many highly rated Google reviews. Around 15–20 euros per person, with reservations available.
Opening hours
From about 12:30; weekend dinner until around 23:00, may close earlier on weekdays, so call ahead to confirm
