To Mati tis Limnis
There are a number of tavernas around the lake, but few of the older rent rooms above the tavernas were operating. The shady To Mati tis Limnis on the quieter end of the lake makes good traditional dishes such as rabbit stifado (braised with onions) or filling mizythropites (cheese pies).

Thalassino Ageri
It can be tricky to find, but this solitary fish taverna in a tiny port amongst the ruins of Hania's old tanneries is one of the most delightful eateries in Crete. Apart from the superb setting they have fresh fish and excellent mezedes such as tender octopus in wine vinegar and melt-in-your-mouth calamari as well as a delicious fisherman's salad. Take a taxi or follow Venizelou around the coast turning left at Noel St as soon as you veer away from the coast.
