Tsipouro bar in central Pothia, loved by locals, with plenty of small plates and an authentic atmosphere.
Located in central Pothia around Patithries, this traditional tsipouradiko is run by its chef and popular with locals and visitors from Athens alike. Inside it feels like an old-style Greek taverna, hung with bottles and vintage photos of famous Greeks. The short menu suits ordering several traditional mezes or a Greek salad with tsipouro or beer, followed by charcoal-grilled octopus or pasta, and reviews also mention smoked aubergine. During the day it serves coffee and loukoumades. The same family runs a beach branch at Palionissos Bay. About 15–25 euros per person.
