Amorgos Horeftis Cafe in Tholaria

Location: Tholaria

Horeftis is a quaint cafe-restaurant located in the rustic village of Tholaria. This family-run spot is one of the oldest coffee shops on the island and visitors are sure to be enchanted by its traditional charm. Boasting vintage decorations and an outside seating area under the shade of trees, Horeftis creates a homely atmosphere ideal for enjoying an authentic Greek meal.

Every dish served is made with traditional Mediterranean recipes and is characterized by an unparalleled homemade feel. For starters, visitors can try the fava meatballs, the sekoulopitakia (chard pastries), or the delightful soutzoukakia. For the main course, one cannot go wrong with the signature dish of Amorgos, patatato (goat meat with potatoes cooked in a clay pot). Make sure to pair your meal with a beer or a wine, or the local favorite rakomelo (raki and honey). Horeftis also serves as a wine/grocery shop, offering a variety of fresh produce and local products. Last but not least, some nights are accompanied by live musical performances.
