  • 1. O Kipos Tou Ilia

    $

    Also know as Elias's Garden restaurant, this simple taverna with a traditional Greek menu and a waterfall in the garden attracts everyone from visiting royalty to Olympic-medal winners. Kids get their own pethika piata (kids' plates). Unusual appetizers include spicy fried feta with peppers and grilled mushrooms. Among the main dishes are beef stamna (baked in a covered clay pot with herbs, potatoes, and cheese), rabbit with onions stew, a range of local village sausages and perfectly fried vegetable croquettes.

  • 2. Estiatorio Meteora

    $

    At this spot on the main square, a local favorite since 1925, the Gkertsos family serves food prepared by the matriarch, Ketty. Meteora is known for hearty main courses—try Ketty's special wine-and-pepper chicken, veal, or pork stifado (stew)—and some specialties from Asia Minor, including tzoutzoukakia Smyrneika, aromatic meatballs in a red sauce laced with cumin. The surrounding hills and mountains are noted for goat and sheep rearing, and these meats are grilled to perfection here. Customers are ushered through the kitchen to place their order.

  • 3. Meteoron Panorama Restaurant

    $

    Come here just for the knockout views of Meteora and the Kalambaka plain below, and the food isn't bad either. Of course, to make sure you get a prime position on the veranda it's best to book in advance. For starters, along with typical mezes, they serve mushrooms stuffed with cheese and a deliciously rich melitzana saganaki (roasted eggplant) served in a claypot with bacon. Try the beautifully prepared lamb chops or the smirneika meatballs, swimming in a spicy tomato sauce. For dessert don't miss out on the syrupy orange cake with a scoop of ice cream.

    Known For

    • Great views of Meteora
    • Attentive service
    • Traditional Greek food
  • 4. O Vakis

    $

    Best grill/souvlaki joint in town, for either a sit-down meal or take-out (they can deliver to your hotel too). The gyros, both chicken and pork, are juicy and tender. You'll need to search out this eatery as it's on a side street just off the town's main road.

    Siderodromou 18, Kalambaka, Thessaly, 42200, Greece
    24320-24126

    Known For

    • Speedy service
    • Top quality local meats
    • Tasty Greek style fast food
  • 5. Paradisos

    $

    When a Greek cooks with meraki (good taste and mood), the world does indeed find paradissos (paradise). Owner Kyriakoula Fassoula serves meat dishes cooked tis oras (to order), such as grilled pork and lamb chops. Vegetarians can choose from delectable eggplant papoutsakia ("little shoes"), fried zucchini with garlic sauce, and various boiled greens. Complimentary fruit is served for the finale, but it would be a shame to pass up the flaky baklava.

  • 6. Pub 38

    $

    English-style pub with a plethora of Greek and international beers in the heart of Kalambaka. Pop in for a sly pint (a liter here) or hang out and enjoy the predominantly rock (rather appropriate for Meteora) sounds and the easy eating, North American-inspired bar grub (burgers, hot dogs, and spicy glazed chicken wings) that they happily dish out.

    28th October St. 18, Kalambaka, Thessaly, 42200, Greece
    24320-25008
