Mezedes( a combination of local dishes), Souvlaki( kebabs), Stifado( local stew) and Fish are dishes found throughout the island, and are well worth trying. Why not start your meal with some aubergines and courgettes deep-fried in batter, or meat, rice and tomato pie, both of which are Kefalonian specialities.

Most bars provide a great choice of beers, wines and spirits but expect to pay more for the imported ones.
