Traditional Café To Pefko: Mezze with a View of Spinalonga

In the picturesque village of Plaka, near the cosmopolitan Elounda, you can savour traditional mezze with raki while enjoying a breathtaking view of Spinalonga.

Here, you’ll find To Pefko, a cozy café where you can relax indoors or take a seat outside.

Start your day with coffee and a light brunch before setting off on an excursion to the historic “island of lepers” to uncover its fascinating story.

At lunchtime, treat yourself to a glass of raki paired with small plates like dolmadakia and fava.

The service always comes with a warm smile, and you’ll find yourself wanting to return again and again to enjoy the shade of the pine trees.
