We had breakfast here everyday, it was perfect. One night we had a coctail here az well, which was pretty good too. I could only recommend to try this place once you are in Naxos. Apart from the delecious breakfast, I'd highlight the kindness of the onwer and everyone who works there.

When in Naxos go Zio Cafe Bistro for friendly understanding staff who go that extra bit to make sure you have the coffee you want. In Australia we get used to our style, here Master barista Costas listens intently to your request and delivers. Thank you also to Sylvia who provided excellent service looking after our food orders. A very clean and professional establishment I highly recommend.

I loved this spot for coffee. Perfect to catch up with friends or to sit and read a book on a side street. The cappuccino freddo was perfect - the coffee was strong and cold. A little freebie - cake on the side - was the perfect addition! Could have enjoyed this spot for hours.

Amazing pancakes and the tea was great too. The only issue was they did not have the sourdough bread but it was a bit off season so it is not strange.

We had breakfast here everyday on our honeymoon and we loved it! The service was so good and the people were very friendly. The food was always made fresh and tasted so nice. Orange juice was fresh squeezed and the coffee was nice and hot. Our favorite was the yogurt with honey as it had crunch hazelnuts on top. So dreamy. We will be back
