4 Best Restaurants in The Northern Aegean Islands, Greece

A favorite stop in Chios Town is this modern, trendy ice cream shop that has been making its best-selling praline ice cream since 1930. It's open from early morning well into the wee hours. The mastic-flavor ice cream is a must-try.

Totem poles, colored coconut lamps, and other knickknacks make this beach bar endearing in its evocation of the South Pacific, as if the setting weren't transporting enough. The owner and his wife serve omelets, fruits, yogurt, and sweet Greek coffee for breakfast, and simple dishes like pizzas, veggie spring rolls, sandwiches, and cheese platters the rest of the day. The music might be characterized as sophisticated lounge; the owner calls it "intellectual."
