Kafeneio Yiayia - greek food

The recipes came down through a grandmother who never wrote anything down.

We cook the way she did: too much olive oil, lemon on everything, and lunch that runs into the afternoon.

Reviews

  • We came in out of the rain without a reservation and they found us a corner anyway. My only regret is not having ordered a second Octopus. The bill was fair and nobody tried to sell us anything.

  • Third time here this year and the first time I have bothered to write one of these. The Baklava on its own justifies the trouble of booking. If I still lived in Crete I would be there weekly.

  • My father is difficult to please and he asked on the way out when we were coming back. The Loukoumades is what I was still thinking about on the way home. A small menu, done properly, which is the right way round.
