Petrokofino: Like the locals do!
ABOUT
“Petrokofino” is a charming, family-owned taverna located in Spili, Rethymno. Every day, the family’s matriarch prepares mouth-watering meals for guests, with a special focus on home-cooked delicacies and stews.
Petrokofino is a local favorite. Regulars flock here because the ingredients are sourced directly from the family’s garden, and the flavors are authentically homey and irresistible.
The menu changes frequently, and the staff, brimming with enthusiasm, will gladly walk you through the dishes. The family’s daughters also work here, welcoming guests with genuine warmth and courtesy.
If you visit, make sure to try the rooster cooked in wine, the divine chicken pie, and the incredible lemon cheesecake!
Although the taverna is located near a road, the family has beautifully arranged the outdoor space with charming tables, elegant tableware, and pots of blooming flowers.
To complement your meal, there’s a selection of local wines, perfect for sampling the finest of the Cretan vineyard.
The tip of Local!
Before leaving Spili, don’t miss the village square with its famous fountain adorned with 25 lion heads, each pouring fresh drinking water. It’s truly a sight to behold!
