  • You might have seen my video from last summer - my holiday in Lakka on Paxos.
    I loved the place so much I went back again this year - and stayed again in Lakka.
    But this time I visited Gaios and Loggos too.
    Places I liked in Lakka:
    Cafe???! : Try as I might, I haven't been able to find out the name of my favourite cafe in Lakka. But it's in the tiniest square in Lakka, find the little square and you can't miss it, it's right opposite Diogenis restaurant. The owners are lovely, the beer is cheaper than most places, but it's the atmosphere that makes it so special. Very highly recommended.
    Rompolas Bakery near the harbour - fantastic pies and sweet treats. Open all day, but the pies sell fast and they only bake once a day.
    To PaxiMadi restaurant - Lovely location, cheaper than many Lakka restaurants, real authentic Greek food, lovely staff.
    Arriva Restaurant on the harbour arm - pricier than some, but a lovely family run taverna in a fantastic location. All their food is great but have their seafood. My gilthead bream the best I've ever eaten, superb.
    Fanis cafe on the seafront - best view of any cafe in Lakka, good coffee, they sell Corfu beer on draught which is great, friendly staff and not over priced.
    Romantica cafe/bar on the seafront. Decent prices, lovely view, but it's really special at night, often full, great music, good staff, the closest Lakka gets to a nightclub, fun place, well worth a visit.
    Harami Beach taverna - this is on Lakka's second beach. It's a bit dearer than some, but the food is great and they offer free sun beds to customers too. The view is stunning, the staff nice and I often spend the whole day there, swimming, eating and drinking. A great place!
    All of the places above are in the video.

    My grandad had a beautiful house on the hills overlooking Lakka, absolutely gorgeous sight at sunset and even more beautiful in the sunrise

    Beautiful video, we were in Lakka the same time as you! Saw you a couple of times making the video. You got it spot on, this was our second time staying in Lakka, loved every minute and will be returning next year. Thank you for the film, will look at it during the winter and look forward to next summer!

    The cafe bar is called Spiros- his son runs it now as he passed away a while ago well into his 90’s. Dont miss the sports bar, Dimitrius and Alexandra will make you very welcome and it’s good value. We are going back in May 2020 for the umpteenth time!,

    Thanks for this Simon. We spent 10 days in Lakka during early July & after seeing your previous video of the place I have to say it was spot on. The village was lovely & we really enjoyed Alejandro’s Taverna but we particularly enjoyed the walks out of the village into the olive tree groves in all directions. We have just returned from Leros which, although quite different, was interesting & well worth the visit. Pax’s is somewhere, unusually for us, that we would/will visit again.

    Hi Simon, After seeing your 2018 video of Lakka we visited in '19. We determined to revisit one day & so we've booked for June 2023 (tip...its a great price at Bastas Complex via Olympic Holidays), this year though its Parga in June. Have you visited other Greek gems since Paxos?

    Simon. Thank you for both of your wonderful Lakka videos. My partner and I have been considering a Paxos stay for a couple of years now ever since briefly visiting Gaios as part of a day trip. After seeing your two videos, we decided on a stay in Lakka for the first half of a duel resort holiday, along with somewhere in Corfu.
