Top 5 / Europe

Aside from gorgeous architecture, Patras also has a reputation for producing some pretty delectable dishes throughout the city. If you’re in town for a few days, here are some spots you don’t want to miss.

 

Sinialo

Sinialo is a popular hangout among the younger crowd in Patras thanks to a laidback atmosphere and great eats. Its primarily seafood menu contains fried shrimp and mussels, but you also must try its many offerings of fried cheese.

 

Naut-oiko

Naut-oiko provides some pretty spectacular views of the ocean, a bustling crowd at the bar next door and some of best lunch and dessert options in Patras. People go here more for the Mediterranean vibe than the food, but that doesn’t stop the chef from delivering delicious salads and seafood.

 

geLatino

The handmade and handcrafted ice cream coming out of geLatino is a labor of love for the owners and it shows. In fact, this gelateria rivals anything you might find in Italy in terms of taste and quality. The scoops are big and the atmosphere fun, so definitely stop in for a snack.

 

Aptaliko

Live music, friendly staff and fantastic food all come together to make Aptaliko one of the most beloved local restaurants in Patras. The family-run joint is known for its relaxed atmosphere and traditional food entirely Greek to the core.

 

Salumeria

Salumeria prides itself on providing traditional but lesser known Greek foods you might not find in most restaurants. The level of professionalism and service here is above and beyond and the food incredibly satisfying. It’s almost always packed, so plan on arriving early if you want to get a good seat.
