Last night we went back to Marmita, and I have to admit, I had quite high expectations. It had been many years since my last visit, but Marmita used to be one of my absolute favourite places to eat.

Over the years, though, getting into town — and especially finding parking — has become a bit of a mission, and the last couple of times I tried to book, getting a table proved surprisingly difficult. So when we finally made it back, I was really looking forward to seeing whether it was still as special as I remembered.

And visually, it absolutely is. The ambience at Marmita is gorgeous — the setting is beautiful, with lots of little details and interesting touches to discover around the room. The tables were beautifully set and the whole place has that effortlessly stylish, cosy feel that makes you want to settle in for the evening.

The menu was considerably smaller than I remembered, although there were still plenty of vegetarian options. We started with the Mastelo cheese (which I absolutely loved), beetroot fritters and a beetroot salad. For my main, I went for the vegan moussaka, while some of our friends tried the leeks in egg and lemon sauce.

The service was excellent throughout and, overall, the food was good. But… and this is where I found myself a little disappointed. Nothing really wowed me. There were dishes I enjoyed, but I didn’t leave thinking about them afterwards or feeling that “I need to come back and have that again” feeling I remember having years ago.

It also felt quite expensive compared with some of the other restaurants of a similar style that I’ve been to recently.

So, perhaps unfairly, I went into Marmita with a lot of nostalgia — and maybe that played a part — but this visit just didn’t live up to my memories. I’m glad we finally made it back, and I can still appreciate how beautiful the place is, but I think Marmita has officially slipped out of my top five.

Sometimes restaurants change… and sometimes it’s just your tastes that change. Either way, I was expecting a little more magic this time.

🍕 **Pizza night at Strofilia, Koukounaries** 🍕

Yesterday evening we decided it was time for a family pizza night, but I’m still not quite ready to face the chaos of town and the inevitable hunt for parking 🙈 So we headed down to **Strofilia in Koukounaries** instead to see if we could get a table.

As we were quite early, we managed to get a table easily — always a bonus when you have hungry children in tow! 😂 — and settled in for a lovely meal.

I wasn’t feeling particularly well, so sadly I didn’t manage to eat much, but the rest of the family certainly made up for it and absolutely **gobbled theirs down**! The garlic bread was AMAZING, and I think the pizza has to be some of the nicest I’ve had in Skiathos. 🍕❤️

The kids went for margarita and I had the veggie pizza. They asked whether I wanted cheese on it, so I’m assuming they could also make it without cheese for anyone wanting a vegan option — although I’d definitely check when ordering.

We also ordered the Strofilia salad. Unfortunately, it wasn’t clear from the menu that it came with chicken, and that was a bit disappointing luckily I didn’t have an appetite so didn’t really bother me as much as it would otherwise have. We really should have asked, but by this point I was feeling pretty rubbish and was mostly concentrating on getting the kids finished and getting home! 🙈

The good news? I couldn’t finish my pizza, so I brought it home with me… which means I got to enjoy the leftovers today! 😋

The setting at Strofilia is beautiful, with plenty of space between the tables, and there’s parking behind the restaurant too — another big tick for me at the moment!

And apologies for the rather rubbish photos! 😂 I wasn’t exactly feeling camera-ready yesterday, so I popped back this morning while I was down in Koukounaries doing the cat feeding and took a few photos of the restaurant instead. 🐈‍⬛❤️

Overall, a lovely spot for a relaxed family meal, and that pizza and garlic bread definitely deserve a mention!

A girls’ night, good food and plenty of chatting — what more could you want? 🍹👯‍♀️

Last night, a couple of girlfriends and I headed down to Victoria in Troulos for a change, and I have to say, it made a great spot for a catch-up!

One of the first things I noticed was how spacious it felt. The tables weren’t packed together, so you didn’t feel like you were dining with the people next to you — always a bonus!

We kicked things off with some vegetable spring rolls and garlic dough balls to share. The dough balls weren’t quite what we expected (they were crispy on the outside rather than soft and doughy), but honestly… they were delicious anyway!

For my main, I went for the vegetable curry with half rice and half chips — because sometimes you just can’t choose! 😂🍛🍟 The curry was full of different vegetables and really tasty. I had actually been to the Indian restaurant in town the day before, so it didn’t quite compete with their curry, but it was still a lovely meal in its own right.

Of course, the night wouldn’t have been complete without a tasty mocktail while we chatted the evening away… literally! 🙈 We enjoyed ourselves so much that we ended up being the last people in the restaurant.

The staff were super lovely, the service was great, and there are some really good veggie choices on the menu — with options that feel a little different from the usual.

All in all, a really lovely evening with great company, good food and plenty of laughs! 🥰✨

Fresh Café Snack Bar is a little gem right on the port of Skiathos! ⚓️☕️

We started the day with a trip down to Asselinos to feed the donkeys donkey club skiathos — this is quickly becoming our new favourite pastime! 🫏❤️ The kids absolutely love it, and I think we do too! 🥰

Afterwards, I had to pop down to the port to meet some guests, so naturally I took the kids and hubby along and turned it into a family lunch date!

Fresh has a huge menu, so there’s something for everyone. I went for the vegetarian club sandwich, while hubby and the kids tucked into classic club sandwiches and pizzas. I’ve also heard they do a fantastic English breakfast! 🥓🍳 Obviously, as a vegetarian, I can’t personally vouch for that one 😂, but if you’re dining with non-veggies, this is definitely a great place to have in mind.

The location is perfect for sitting back, enjoying some food and watching all the hustle and bustle of the port. And the family who run it are absolutely lovely! 🥰

They’re also cat lovers, which, in my eyes, is always a massive bonus 🐈❤️

Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for a relaxed spot for breakfast, lunch or a bite to eat while you’re down by the port!

A lovely meal with friends at The Final Step — and, with rumours that it may be for sale, I felt like I needed to squeeze in a visit while I still could!

It’s always a bit of a hike to get there, but the beautiful setting, gorgeous tables and, of course, the food make it so worth the journey. I couldn’t leave without having their delicious chilli and blue cheese tart one more time… just in case! 🌶️🧀

And then, of course, there was dessert — Pam Goes Bananas, which was every bit as fun and delicious as it sounds! 🍌🍨

Always such a lovely spot, and even better when shared with good friends. ✨

We had a cheeky little lunch stop at Troulos Bay Hotel last week, and what a find! 🌿☀️

This place really does have it all — a great menu, gorgeous views, lovely service and, even better, prices that won’t make you wince. 😄

I went for the beetroot salad, Mum had the Briam, and naturally we had to share a portion of chips on the side. Everything was delicious and it was just the kind of relaxed, no-fuss lunch we love.

I can already see this becoming one of our firm favourites for a quick lunch stop — good food, beautiful surroundings and a lovely atmosphere. What more could you ask for? 💕

One of those places we always come back to 🤍

I’ve shared our little go-to taverna down on Megali Ammos Beach, Taverna Thessaloniki before, and yesterday felt like the perfect excuse to head there one last time before my family flew home today.

Mum and I kept lunch simple — feta drizzled with honey, a fresh green salad, crispy fried courgettes and, of course, chips for the table. 🥗🍯

Nothing fancy, just really good food, sunshine, and that lovely feeling of being somewhere that already feels familiar.

Perfect as always. 🇬🇷✨

🐾 **An animal-filled morning in Skiathos!** 🐾

We started our morning with lots of wagging tails and cuddles, visiting the lovely dogs at the shelter, before heading down to meet the wonderful donkeys at donkey club skiathos 🐶🫏❤️

It was so heartwarming to see such beautiful animals being cared for with so much love, kindness and dedication. Both places are doing such important work, and it was a real pleasure to support them and see the difference they’re making.

If you’re visiting Skiathos, please take the time to visit, show your support, and maybe even make a donation if you can. Every little bit helps these wonderful animals. ❤️

A morning well spent in the company of some very special four-legged friends! 🐾☀️

What do you even say about a day like today?! 🥹⛵️💙

We spent the day sailing with Nireas sailing and honestly… WOW. What an incredible experience! From the moment we set off, it felt like we’d stepped into a little slice of paradise. 🌊☀️

We visited **three different swim spots**, each more beautiful than the last, and swam in the most unbelievably crystal-clear, turquoise waters. We could snorkel, paddle around on the SUP, or simply float in the sea and take it all in. 🐠🤿🏄‍♀️

And the food?! 😍 We were treated to fresh fruit, snacks and drinks throughout the day, followed by the most delicious **vegetarian moussaka**, Greek salad and fresh bread. Everything tasted even better with the sea stretching out around us.

It was one of those days where you find yourself thinking, *“I really don’t want this day to end.”* 💙

Beautiful scenery, crystal-clear water, amazing food, sunshine, sailing and the loveliest atmosphere — honestly, what more could you ask for?

**I cannot recommend this experience enough!** If you’re visiting skiathos, put this one on your list. 🇬🇷✨

It was my little one's birthday today, so I'd promised him pancakes for breakfast. We headed to Meltemi brunch cafe because they serve the best pancakes we've had all summer!

He chose the Banoffee Pancakes, and they definitely lived up to the hype. I opted for the poached eggs and avocado on multigrain bread with a banana juice and a mountain tea with honey. Unfortunately, my breakfast was a bit underwhelming. Even with plenty of salt and pepper, it was still quite bland.

Breakfast is becoming as expensive as dinner these days, and our meal came to €34 – almost a day's wage for many people on our little island. 🙈

The staff were friendly, but the service let things down. We waited quite a while for menus and ended up asking for them ourselves, despite other tables that arrived after us already being served. Paying was another wait, with one waiter on the phone and another chatting at the bar, so it was difficult to catch anyone's attention.

That said, it's a fantastic location, and those pancakes alone are enough to tempt me back. I just hope the service is a little more attentive next time. Today I had an appointment afterwards, so the delays were more noticeable than they might otherwise have been.
