Akropolis

Karpathos


This handsome harbourfront cafe-restaurant has a billowing ceiling arrangement and overly perfect white chairs and striped covers. And it draws in the tourists for everything from breakfast to a sunset cocktail and dinner. And a lovely outlook to the sea beyond. The menu is strong on standard Greek faves, plus every cut of meat suitable to an American steakhouse.
