Tinos


This harbourfront cafe does a fine line in breakfasts, but it’s the patisserie's delectable sweets that catch most people’s eyes. From the homemade ice cream (try the bitter chocolate) to traditional sweets like liknaraki (sweet cheese cupcakes) and almond cookies, you’ll find something to like.
