Meeraki

Tucked at the entrance of the charming village of Lentas, Meeraki is a cozy cafe and restaurant. Housed in a former bakery, Meeraki has been transformed into a relaxed, welcoming spot with its own distinct personality — blues playing softly in the background, board games on the shelves, and plants everywhere you look. Run by a team of young, friendly people, Meeraki serves simple, healthy food made with fresh local ingredients from breakfast through to dinner. The menu is creative and varied, with some excellent vegan options to choose from. Start your morning with their fluffy vegan pancakes, a perfect way to fuel up before a day at the beach. For lunch or dinner, don’t miss the falafel wrap — crispy, golden falafel served with delicious accompaniments — or the vegan pizza with veggie cheese, generously topped and full of flavour. What makes Meeraki special is its atmosphere. It sits away from the seafront tavernas that line the rest of the village, which gives it a quieter, more intimate feel. It is the kind of place where you sit down for a coffee and end up staying for hours.
