Ikaros Cafe

At Café Ikaros you will find a variety of flavors that cover every desire – from rich snacks and fresh salads, to delicious ice creams and imaginative cocktails. With views of Onassis’ Scorpius, the Madouri of the famous Greek poet Aristotle Valaoritis and the rocking sailing boats, frozen waffles with fresh ice cream, chocolate and fruit crepes, and cool frozen cocktails are just some of the reasons why Café Ikaros has established itself as the “happy place” of every visitor.

Every desire starts in the morning with a large list of all kinds of breakfasts, fruit salads fresh with yoghurt and local honey, continues with hearty snacks, fresh salads and lots of food and ends the evening with locally produced ice creams and imaginative cocktails. The freshly baked waffles, long famous for their personal homemade pastry, ideally start the morning with an aromatic coffee and something sweet, while at lunch and in the afternoon, the menu offers light and delicious dishes that combine flavour and freshness.

The morning starts with lounge music and quality aromatic coffee. All dishes are made using carefully selected ingredients. Here, quality meets simplicity, and the result is delightful.

The atmosphere is carefree and welcoming, with comfortable seating by the sea and helpful staff who always greet you with a smile. The boss, Yiannis, is there at all hours of the day to assist you with whatever you need, whether you are a customer of the restaurant or stopping by as a guest. It is the ideal destination to enjoy a rest break after your walk or shopping, to observe the traffic in the harbour and feel the pulse of Nidri. It is the ideal spot to enjoy a coffee which will stimulate you before you continue your walk or work, as it is a meeting point for visitors and locals alike.

Café Ikaros, with most of its customers repeating for more than 25 years, is much more than just a coffee shop. It is a place where small moments matter, where taste is combined with the view, and where every visit becomes a special holiday memory. It is the perfect place to “slow down”, enjoy the sun, relax with good company and indulge in the magic of summer in Lefkada.

COME AS A FRIEND, LEAVE AS A FAMILY.
