Set right on Mikro Kamini, a leisurely 15-minute walk from the port (or 5 minutes by mule or couple of minutes by water taxi), this fully renovated 18th-century fortress is a popular bar-restaurant offering some of the most fortifying dining on the island. Castello is the only place where you can find sushi, or if you are craving a snack, try the catch of the day served with wild greens and saffron. Its multilevel café serves breakfast, coffee, drinks, and snacks and is the ideal spot for enjoying Hydra sunsets over the best apple martini on the island. Renting a sun bed for the day on the beach right in front of Castello will set you back €5.
No Greek experience is complete without a quick gyro pita on the hoof. And if that's what you're after pop into Kai Kremmidi for the best of that ilk on Hydra. Also try the tasty lahmacun, an Arabic-style mini pizza with spiced mince meat and a dash of lemon. It's located a couple of blocks up from the harbor.
Burgers, club sandwiches, wraps, and fresh salads are the headliners on Pitsi's simple menu, all of which can be eaten in or taken away as you continue your meandering exploration around Aegina Town. You can also pop in for a quick coffee, smoothie, or freshly sqeezed juice.
This lovely little establishment whips up a mean freddo (iced) cappuccino. They serve large and satisfying made-to-order sandwiches and creamy ice cream. Try the delicious pistachio flavor. There is limited seating if you want to have your coffee and snack in situ.
The owners of this spot are as unapologetic about the bad pun in their name as they are about the super tasty souvlaki they dish out. Order traditional gyro or souvlaki wrapped in a lighly grilled pita bread, to eat in or take out. They even cater to vegetarians, with haloumi, fresh summer veggies, or mushrooms wrapped in pita bread.
You don't get the swish, trendy, and inventive modern island styles here, what you do get though is a traditional Greek taverna with swift service and good value for your money, which more than make up for a lack of atmosphere. Pass up the grilled dishes for the goat slowly cooked in a clay pot and oven-roasted potatoes lightly flavored with lemon and oregano. Not to be missed: the small homemade cheese pies for starters and the fried kalamari.
Fast food all over Greece usually consists of souvlaki or gyro wrapped in a pita and that is available at Tenekdakia, but this spot also has the added draw of being in a superb harbor-front location. The pork gyro is crispy yet juicy and the pita is also stuffed full with fries, onion, tomato, and cooling tzatziki. By the way, if you're missing spicey heat (rarely found in Greek food) make sure to ask for a generous sprinkling of tongue tingling hot red pepper.
