Bolanis’ Café: Delicious Home-Cooked Meals in a Chania Suburb

Agios Ioannis, a quiet suburb just a short distance from Chania, hides a culinary gem known for its warm, welcoming vibe. Bolanis’ Café isn’t located on a bustling thoroughfare; instead, it’s a destination people seek out deliberately—for the sheer taste.

Forget about menus here! The café serves whatever the owner has lovingly prepared that day. Expect authentic Cretan dishes, such as succulent tsigariasto lamb, made with fresh, locally-sourced ingredients.

Keep in mind that food service begins after 8:30 PM. If you arrive earlier, you can relax with a coffee or a drink while soaking in the cozy atmosphere.

This is not just a meal—it’s an experience that will make you feel like a local. Don’t miss it!
