Vlachata Food Guide: 8 Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Vlachata
Vlachata (Greek: Βλαχάτα, also Βλαχάτα Εικοσιμίας) is a village and a community in the eastern part of the municipal unit of Leivatho near the south coast of the island of Kefalonia, Greece. To avoid confusion with another Vlachata near Sami, it is also known as Vlachata Eikosimias. The community consists of the villages Vlachata and Simotata, which is 2 km east of Vlachata. Vlachata is situated on a mountain slope above the Ionian Sea coast, at about 200 m elevation. Mount Ainos, the highest point of Cephalonia, is 4 km to the northeast. Vlachata is 1 km northwest of Lourdata, 2 km southeast of Mousata, 13 km southwest of Poros and 13 km southeast of Argostoli. The road from Argostoli to Poros runs through Vlachata. Vlachata suffered great damage from the 1953 Ionian earthquake.

This is a cut above most of the other restaurants here, with the owner showing her attention to style, detail, quality and sheer friendliness of welcome. We came on a wet and almost cold night when the outdoors was closed, but the view and setting on a sunny day must be top rate. Starters were excellent. I think we ordered wrongly for mains, getting the two biggest steaks ever seen (due to being fed up with the same old routine in all of the other restaurants) - but whilst they appeared great at first, they didn't have anything like the quality you'd get with something like a florentine steak in Italy. Other diners mainly had fish, all of which looked very good indeed. So it's five stars for the sheer quality of the restaurant, for the welcome and service, and for the pleasure of dining here.

Cafe bar in village centre, Lourdas

As a member of CAMRA (the British real ale group) I was thrilled when we found this quirky little place. The guy's ale knowledge is impressive as is his collection of treddle sewing machines and weighing scales. Nice to be able to drink something with taste as opposed to the usual cold gassy Mythos etc.

We visited Muses having been here many times on our holidays in Lourdas. Unfortunately Muses is only open late on Friday nights. We enjoyed cocktails and milkshakes and lovely Nadia treated us to a lemon liquor. Service and Gardens are excellent as always.

I have been visiting for years, and it never changes, from a very warm welcome, with iced water, to the terrific setting, not to mention the food. The home made food is to die for, we had drinks and cheesecake, which was so good, it spoiled our dinner. I can recommend both the black cherry cheesecake, and the baked pear cheesecake, both stunning, if somewhat large!

Gefiri features a great menu with lots of options, even for the picky teen-agers!
The traditional Greek menu is supplemented with a fabulous pizza selection.
The steak was enormous, it filled the plate and it wasn't a small plate!
Seating outside was spacious with a great view of the mountain Ainos. The chilled red wine worked very well but the beer was great as well!
We thought the food was well worth the ten minute walk, highly recommended!
