Very nice Falafel pita, and a waffle, made especially to order, as they don't actually usually make them ! Nice place to watch sunset. Sat outside. Comfy seats. Wasn't disturbed, but that could be as it was end of season. (Peak months probably have cars constantly passing by with fumes) Nice guy. Closed over winter season, as expected. Would i come back? Yes if i was passing. Place- ok Service- good Food- good

We visited the place at noon in September and we were the only ones there. We ordered gyros and it was okay. We paid 5€ for the gyros, a good price. The staff was friendly and they speak English.

One week stay in Gouves and they had by far the tastiest gyros there. We tried more expensive, better feedbacks, but none compared to their pita gyros. Also, don’t be afraid to try their sweets. Their waffles are amazing! I recommend the waffles with praline, mythos radler or draft and pita gyros with both chicken and pork. Loved it there and they also gave us “raki” on the house every time we went back for more! They deserve more customers .

Magical! The lighting in the night really makes this place feel extra special. Eating the finest food Crete has to offer in luxurious comfort with the sound of the Agean gently caressing in the back ground! The street cats were adorable too! Those little guys are great at taking your left overs!.I highly recommend this beach cafe, it was one of the highlights of my visit to this amazing Greek island.
