Malanos Tavern
Οινομαγειρείον Μαλάνος
A family charcoal-grill place on the edge of town that locals favor. Affordable grilled meat skewers and generous daily home-style dishes, at about €10 per person.
A family-run old eatery on Agiou Athanasiou Street in the Kipoi district, south of Zakynthos Town. Three generations of the family run it, and it is popular with locals. The menu centers on charcoal-grilled pork skewers, local sausage, lamb chops, and a mixed grill platter, plus daily home-style dishes that change every day. The owner often invites guests into the kitchen to see the day's dishes. The décor is simple, and lunchtime is the busiest. Average spend is about €6–12 per person, and about €30 for two with wine. It suits budget travelers. It's some distance from the old town, so a taxi is recommended.
