Taste of Andros: From Neimporio to the Market
Our personal recommendations for authentic 'froutalia', fresh seafood, and local treats.
When guests ask us where to eat, we point them to the spots we’ve trusted for generations. Andros' cuisine is all about simple, high-quality local ingredients.
Down at the Neimporio promenade, right by the waves, Madouris is a classic choice for traditional dishes, while Nonas is the go-to place for fresh seafood and creative appetizers.
As you move up to the Main Market (Agora), the vibe changes. Under the cool shade of the alleys, Platanos and Nostalgia are perfect for an afternoon Ouzo with a variety of small plates ("poikilies"). For a more refined dining experience that blends tradition with modern touches, Skalakia and Endochora are absolute must-visits.
Don't leave without trying our signature dish, Froutalia — a slow-cooked omelet with local sausages and potatoes. For dessert, the pastry shops in the Agora offer famous almond sweets (amygdalota) and traditional "pastes" that have been local favorites for decades.
Insider Tip: If you venture outside Chora, Kossis in Ano Fellos is a legendary meat-lover's paradise, and Stamatis in Batsi is a guarantee for well-cooked, authentic Greek food.
