In Agios Sostis, Kiki’s Tavern is a brilliant option for al fresco dining. Hidden under the trees, the tavern is almost invisible but those who manage to detect it, are in for a treat.

Freshness abounds in every single dish, be it a crisp salad, tender fish or juicy meat, effortlessly highlighting the best of Mediterranean cuisine.
