Golden Beach Cafe / Patisserie is a laid back cafe on the seafront in the peaceful beach resort of Agios Prokopios.
This friendly cafe has a host of white plastic chairs and tables outside, some in the sun and some shaded by a canopy, with views of the beach and a good view of the sunset in the evenings. The staff are friendly and talkative and the setting is quiet and peaceful......I enjoyed a drink and an early evening snack here on several occasions during my visit to Naxos in May 2006.
The menu includes:
Breakfasts: - including, toast, cheese, ham, eggs, coffee and tea;
Ice cream sundaes: - a selection of exotic ice cream flavours with fruit, wafers, sauces and toppings. Quite expensive at 5-6 Euros;
Yoghurts: - with cherries, strawberries, fruit salad, walnuts, Naxian honey;
Cakes and pastries: - cheesecake, fruit tart, baklava, milk pie and a large assortment of other honey drenched cakes and pastries;
Drinks: - bottled beers, red and white wines, spirits (ouzo, raki, local Naxos Citron, brandy), soft drinks, hot beverages and milkshakes (available in all the flavours that the ice cream is available in).
On my various visits here, I tried:
Yoghurt with cherries - Cost: 3.50 Euros
A dish of thick Greek yoghurt top with a tin of preserved cherries. The sour yoghurt and sweet cherries were an ideal contrast.
Milk pie - Cost: 2 Euros
A honey drenched cake, similar to baklava but with a milk based filling (similar to a vanilla slice). Topped with icing sugar and cinnamon.
Baklava - Cost: 2 Euros
A honey drenched pastry filled with nuts and cinnamon..
Coca Cola (500ml bottle) - Cost: 1.60 Euros
Served with ice and lemon.
Alfa beer (500ml bottle) - Cost: 2 Euros
Served with a complimentary bowl of salted peanuts.
A lovely, relaxing cafe with friendly staff and a peaceful location. A great place to enjoy breakfast, lunch or an evening drink. Highly recommended!

Platia Taverna is a grill house and restaurant located on a picturesque square in the centre of Naxos Town.
A host of green tables with red checked tablecloths sit inside the restaurant and outdoors beneath a canopy of green leaves.
I ate here one lunchtime during a visit to Naxos in May 2006.
The menu at Platia Taverna was similar to that of many of Naxos Town's restaurants, with an emphasis on seafood and traditional Greek meat dishes, and a few international dishes. The menu included, for example:
Seafood:: shrimps, octopus, grilled squid, fish;
Traditional Greek dishes:: moussaka, beef stifado, pork souvlaki, meatballs, oven-cooked lamb;
Spaghetti dishes:: bolognaise, carbonara, with mushrooms;
Pizzas:: a variety of pizza choices;
Desserts: a selection of cakes and pastries, ice cream, fruit, yoghurt with honey and nuts;
Drinks: bottled beers, local wines, spirits, soft drinks and hot beverages.
I opted for:
Spaghetti with mushrooms - Cost: 5.50 Euros
A large plate of spaghetti with mushrooms in a creamy mushroom sauce. Similar to spaghetti carbonara but with no meat in. Served with 3 slices of crusty bread with melted butter and herbs on (included within the cover charge of 0.90 Euros). A very filling meal which I could not finish at that time of day.
Mythos beer (500ml bottle) - Cost: 2.50 Euros
Upon paying my bill, I received a complimentary piece of cake (similar to baklava but filled with coconut and topped with cinnamon).
Good quality food at average prices in a central location. Leave a Comment Theme: Eclectic/InternationalPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: Naxos TownDirections: Located on a picturesque square in Naxos Town, just inland from the port.

Aegean Sea Taverna is tucked away on a small street near the seafront. The menu is just like any other taverna in Naxos, but what is great are the bouzouki players that they have every night. This was the only place in Naxos that I found, that had live music. It was a great experience, especially when a local girl joined in the singing one night,
It's a great place to relax, and enjoy some great music. Leave a Comment

It is located on a street corner in the centre of this small, relaxing resort - right opposite the long, sandy beach.
The taverna has numerous tables on its outdoor terrace as well as tables in its airconditioned interior.
The taverna has a large selection of local and international dishes. For example, Greek dishes include moussaka, gyros, souvlaki, kalamari (squid), saganaki (fried cheese), Greek salads, stuffed vine leaves and various lamb and beef meat dishes. The international selection includes pasta and pizzas. There is an extensive choice of fresh seafood.
There is a large choice of soft drinks and alcoholic beverages, although in late September 2005 (close to the end of the season) the draught beer had finished for the season - so it was bottles only.
The waiter service is friendly and efficient and the atmosphere is relaxing and informal.
I ate here on my first night in Agios Prokopios in September 2005 on the recommendation of the hotel owner at the place that I was staying.
I had just arrived from crowded Santorini, so I really enjoyed the slower-paced atmosphere.
I opted for the saganaki (fried cheese) as a starter - a large portion served with a lemon to squeeze on it.
For my main course I had Spaghetti Carbonara. Again, the portion was large (and served with large slices of bread) and the food was piping hot and excellent quality.
As with any beachside taverna, prices are a little above average - but not excessively so. If I recall correctly, the saganaki cost about 3 Euros and the Carbonara 6 Euros.

Nikos Restaurant is a traditional Greek taverna in the heart of Naxos Town.
It is located just behind the seafront road and consists of a large interior (above the Commercial Bank) and a host of outdoor tables on a pleasant back street.
I opted to eat outside in the sunshine during my lunchtime visit to this restaurant in May 2006. The setting is excellent, with some tables in the sun and others in the pleasant shade, located on a quiet, flowery back lane. Whenever I passed the restaurant, there was a line of squid hanging to dry outside, across the street, just above head height.
There is an extensive menu available, including:
Seafood: octopus, squid, cod, dogfish, swordfish, mackrel, red mullet, white bait, sole, mixed fish, lobster. (Approx. 6-8 Euros, except lobster which cost 20 Euros);
Greek dishes: Greek salad, moussaka, gyros, meatballs, fish soup, beef, chicken and pork souvlaki, beef Naxos, stuffed goat, rabbit with onions, lamb chops, veal (Approx. 5 Euros);
International dishes: beef steaks with garlic sauce, green pepper sauce or fried onions, spaghetti bolognaise, spaghetti carbonara (Approx. 5-8 Euros);
Desserts: traditional Greek pastries (eg baklava, milk pie) and ice cream sundaes;
Drinks: bottled beers, local red and white wines, spirits, cocktails, soft drinks and hot beverages.
The service was friendly and efficient. It took a while for my meal to be brought to me, but that is because I wanted my steak to be well done......I'd rather wait longer and have a properly cooked steak!
I opted for:
Sirloin steak with fried onions Cost: 7.50 Euros
A pretty average steak, but very well cooked. Served in a very tasty onion sauce and accompanied by chips, rice and salad. Also served with a couple of slices of crusty bread and butter (included in the cover charge of 0.60 Euros).
Amstel beer (500ml beer) Cost: 2 Euros
A nice peaceful setting to enjoy a varied choice of seafood and local specialities. The food wasn't outstanding, but I had no real complaints with my meal.

Kostas Restaurant/Ouzeri is a traditional Greek taverna located amongst a long row of similar establishments on Naxos Town's seafront.
The restaurant has a small interior and a larger outdoor seating area with a canopy roof to shade from the scorching sun. Wooden tables, checked tablecloths and bright flowers on each table give this taverna the traditional Greek appearance.
I ate here one lunchtime during my visit to Naxos in May 2006. Although there was nothing to distinguish it from the host of similar tavernas along the seafront, this one was completely empty as I past it (unlike some of the others which were busy), so I thought I'd give it a try. There is a sea view from the outdoor seating area as long as no cars are parked in front of the restaurant.
The menu includes:
Greek salads;
Appetizers - including, stuffed vine leaves, saganaki (fried cheese), eggplant, tzatziki;
Seafood dishes - including, shrimps, fish, squid, octopus (grilled, pickled or stuffed);
Meat dishes - including, souvlaki, gyros, beef steaks, pork chops, lamb, half a chicken;
Spaghetti dishes - with meat or with tomato sauce;
Desserts - including, baklava, yoghurt with fruit, nuts or honey, ice cream.
I opted for:
Spaghetti with tomato sauce - Cost: 3.80 Euros
A large plate of long spaghetti in a tasty tomato and herb based sauce and topped with feta cheese. Served with 3 slices of crusty bread (but no butter), included in the 0.90 Euros cover charge.
Mythos beer (500ml bottle) - Cost: 2.20 Euros
Decent food at average prices in a nice setting. Nothing to distinguish it from dozens of other such establishments along Naxos Town's seafront.
