Ehhh, Pitta? That was what I remember from George's corner! Great family and a great place to read a book with a coke and a souvlaki whilst your Triumoh Tr7 sits there! Ah yes, 1994 was a good year, mostly. If anyone was there in 1994 and remembers Neil & John, please get in touch via www.g0ofb.co.uk (cut and paste it to avoid URL errors!) Yia sou JJ

Have been to Paxos several times and the food has been excellent everywhere we have eaten. Our favourite is Il Mederterrano in Gaios. It is the last taverna on the harbour front - walking towards the new port - after the Coast Guard office. Everything we had was lovely especially the aubergine and cheese starter but the best dish if it is on is a local speciality called ‘male cockerel’ .Other favourites are in Lakka – the Nautilus for fish and the Alexandros for their entire menu!Have had some great meals at the Vassilis in Loggos but in 2006 felt the service was not as good as it used to be and that it had lost some of it’s charm by trying to be more like a ‘restaurant’ than a taverna.

FOUR SEASONS CAFE BAR LOGGOS
This is the place to go for the best cheesecake ever - Aleka makes the most wonderful light and tasty cheesecake - a day isn't complete without a slice. We are looking forward to returning in June to enjoy once again.

NAUTILUS TAVERNA LAKKA
Love Greece, love Paxos, love Lakka, love Nautilus taverna! If you like seafood like us, then you must try this taverna, by the side of the bay where the little fishing boats tie up alongside. Fresh fish simply cooked on the BBQ or their seafood risotto, both delicious. Wonderful, will be back soon!Sylvia and Brian.

MONODENDRI BEACH BAR & RESTAURANT
This has got to be THE most romantic place on Paxos for a fabulous traditional Greek meal – right on the beach with the sea glinting in the moonlight just below your table, gorgeous food and the best hosts in Ben and his Mum, Eftihia. We’ll be back again later this year!

THE OLIVE TREE RESTAURANT LOGGOS

Nionios in Lakka.
Top food in Paxos is to be found at Nionios in Lakka. Opened in 1945, it is now in the hands of the third and fourth generations. Fresh local produce only. A wide and skilfully prepared variety of vegetarian, meat and fish dishes are all cooked with a wonderful mixture of fresh herbs and served with great friendliness and enthusiasm. You will need to book if you want to be sure of a table. We shall be returning.
Charlie and family.
Nionios in Lakka.
We had a geat quality meal,a real taste of Greece complete with warm and friendly welcome. The kitchen run to see and choose your meal is a fun experience. If you want to finish off with something bit different, stagger over to the bar over the road on the kitchen side (can't remember the name) and try their cocktail Frankie the Monk!

Where do I start? We spent three glorious weeks in Paxos this year getting married and had a party of 40 to entertain for a week. In my experience all Paxos tavernas and bars are a delight, but my particular favourites are: - Taverna Dodos for a quiet relaxed home made meal in a pretty garden in Gaios - Taverna Genesis for a traditional Greek Night and great cocktails in Gaios overlooking the harbour - Vassilis Taverna for amazing spit roast meats just off the main square - George's Corner for the good old fashioned pitta and watch the world go by - Lila's Taverna in Magazina, my personal all time favourite with Thomas, Stefanos and their good wives cooking up a storm every day for the locals. Book a taxi to the Sunset bar for a gin& tonic and then retire to Lila's for Greece as it used to be.... Enjoy Julia Hart x

Nothing beats Rosa de Paxos for the best fish, mussels and prawns. Michelas is the amazing owner of the place and its my favourite restaurant in the world
******************************************
Dodo's Taverna
Dodo's Taverna is by far the most charming place to eat on Paxos. Its Einstein-look-alike host is delightful and his colourful garden is filled with herbs and conversational delights (like pineapples in
a tree). The taverna is enhanced by being away from the shallow harbour front eateries that tend to lack character.
