Lourdata Holidays

Bars & Restaurants

The village of Lourdata has a number of restaurants and bars.

If you come into the village from Vlachata (down the hill from the main road) the first building you will see after passing the sign for the village is the Muses Bar.

The Muses Bar http://www.muses-cafebar.gr/ has a paved outside garden with shrubs and fountains. They have a large screen television which is used for showing major sporting events. For more information, see the web site.

A short distance down the hill is the Dionysos Restaurant http://www.liocharis.gr/restaurant.htm. Their website has more information about the restaurant and also their apartments and studios.
There is a large indoor eating area and, at the back of the restaurant, is an open-air paved area where the tables are surrounded by trees and water features. This restaurant also provides a delivery service for the pizzas they bake in their traditional wood fired oven. This restaurant is open throughout the year.

Set back from the road, just above the square is the Adonis Bar. Adonis can provide a wide selection of beers, spirits, cocktails, or a coffee or ice creams.

The balcony of the bar is an ideal place to sit as the sun goes down or the moon creates a river of silver across the sea.

See the Accommodation page for the Adonis Studios and Apartments.

The square is dominated by its massive plane tree. Below the tree is Platonos. As well as being a general store it is also the place you can sit with a coffee, tea or an alcoholic drink. Because of the shade of the tree and the breeze which usually blows along the valley, it is the coolest place in the village.

Opposite Platonos is a new restaurant Liza's. The food is Greek and as it is a grill bar they specialise in charcoal-grilled dishes.

Farther down the hill towards the beach, opposite the Lara Hotel hidden behind trees and flowering shrubs is the Trifylli Restaurant.

Continuing down the hill towards the beach you will pass Denis's Mini Market.

As you get to the beach you will see the BlueSeas Restaurant on your right,
this is run by the mayor of the village and his family.

Up a flight of stairs on your left is the 7 Bar. This is an internet cafe. For more information go to seven cafe bar, kefalonia.
Below the 7Bar is Mezedakia. This is an ouzeri which describes itself as a greek tapas bar

Turning left along the beach road you will come to the entrance for Lorraines Magic Hill restaurant
which is on the hillside above the beach and accessed up a flight of steps.

Continuing along the beach is the Klimatis Restaurant. This, as the name implies, has its tables shaded by a canopy of vines.

Adjoining the restaurant, on one side, is a bar and on the other side a mini-market.

Towards the end of the main beach is AridasPalace. This restaurant has been open for only a few years,
but Spiros has been supplying the locals with excellent, tasty food for many years from his cantina in Simotata.

Instead of turning left at the beach, you were to turn right along the new part of the beach road, you will come to Dimitris beach bar. This is a small wooden structure just above the beach and an ideal spot for a relaxing cool drink.

A little farther towards the harbour you will come to the Waikiki Bar. There you can get a drink or a snack in the shade overlooking the beach and the sea. Upstairs the view is panoramic.

There are beers, soft drinks (including freshly squeezed orange juice and their home-made lemon, made only with lemon juice and sugar), and ice creams. Snacks include toasted sandwiches, salads, etc.

Continuing a short distance in this direction will bring you to the little harbour. Just above the harbour is the Lithero Restaurant.
Its shady tables overlook the harbour and the sea.
Nikos and his family are fishermen, and therefore the restaurant is noted especially for its fish.

Their fishing boat in the harbour.
