Tavernas in Lower Old Town |
| The list below details all the tavernas open in the lower part of the Old Town during the summer of 2007. Our observations may be useful if you have limited time on Alonissos to eat. As always, the best option is to try eating at all the tavernas and forming your own opinions. A schematic map can be found at the bottom of the page to help you locate the tavernas. |
