Chrysopigi Lembesis
Ταβέρνα Χρυσοπηγή (Λεμπέσης)
A family-run beachside taverna on Apokofto beach with views of the 17th-century Chrysopigi Monastery, known for clay-pot lamb and chickpea soup.
This family-run beach taverna is on the quiet Apokofto beach. You dine under tamarisk trees with a view of the 17th-century Chrysopigi Monastery on the headland. Signature dishes include clay-pot slow-roasted lamb or goat mastelo cooked with red wine and dill, and chickpea soup (revithada) simmered with bay leaves and served with lemon. Tomato salad and meatballs are also often mentioned. Walk-ins are welcome, or call +30 2284 071295 to reserve. Some visitors say portions are small and service is casual. It can be reached on foot along the coastal path from Faros, making it ideal for lunch after a swim. Expect to spend around €20–30 per person.
