Tucked away in the green gorge of Vouraikos, next to the cog railway station - under the rentals - it seems forgotten by time. It might be the most picturesque mountain tavern in Greece. The enclosed space is gracefully made with benches and rags, and a fireplace for the winter. Large windows allow you to see the view. Outside on a wooden balcony - just above the Vouraikos riverbed - are large side tables and benches. The only noises you hear are the gurgling waters of the river (do not imagine any big river, just in winter and summer there is water for coolness and for music), the rustling of the maple leaves and the chirping of the birds and of course every hour the train that stops towards your eyes, no noise anymore. A lot of people who go in one direction, stop eating quietly - about two hours - and take the next.

The tavern was set up by Mr. Costas which was very good in the kitchen. In recent years, his son received Fanis who still needs a little work to reach his father… However the food is decent, if you take into account the difficulties of the position, and the service very friendly and prompt. Greece of 1960 and the food to surprise you with the variety. Not where you will find everything, because the kitchen is small and the clientele is small. Enjoy what is occasionally cooked in Romance tavern: vegetable pie, cheese pie, leek-meat pie, boiled goat, rabbit stew, vergadi (annual goat) with greens, beef with noodles, village sausage, rooster with noodles, of course ladorigani goat, spiolosi .

Time has stopped, everything that happens has a sweetness and calm, and you will do what you can to prolong these moments.
