Gastronomy in Alonissos – Taste the Island’s Tradition

Alonissos is not only a destination of natural beauty, but also a hidden gastronomic treasure. Here, traditional recipes, fresh local ingredients, and the simplicity of island cooking come together in a truly authentic culinary experience.

The island’s most famous dish is the traditional Alonissos cheese pie (tiropita), made with handmade dough and soft cheese, pan-fried to golden perfection. You’ll find it freshly made in local tavernas and bakeries, crisp and full of flavor.

Alonissos is also known for its fresh seafood, wild greens, fragrant herbs, and traditional spoon sweets. In seaside tavernas in Votsi, Patitiri, and Chora, you can savor local dishes such as kakavia (fisherman’s soup), baked fish, stuffed vegetables, and oven-roasted local goat.

Pair your meal with wine or tsipouro from Alonissos, and enjoy your food with sea views and a sense of calm that only an authentic Greek island can offer.

Dining in Alonissos is a journey of simplicity and taste — rooted in tradition, shaped by nature, and served with heartfelt hospitality.
