Feels like home, away from home
A family kitchen on Acharavi beach in the north of Corfu. Greek classics, homemade, from the first coffee of the morning to the last cocktail after sunset.
The place
On the sand, under the parasols
Faros sits right on the beach at Acharavi, where the wide bay of north Corfu looks across the water to the mountains of Albania. Walk off the sand, up three steps, and you are at your table.
The kitchen cooks Greek dishes and international favourites, all homemade. Come for a full breakfast with your feet still sandy, stay for lunch in the shade, and end the day with a drink while the light goes orange over the water.
Nothing here is hurried. That is rather the point.
From the kitchen and the bar
Served from morning until late
One kitchen, one long day. Breakfast turns into brunch, brunch into lunch, and by evening the grill is on.
Breakfast & brunch
Full English or continental, avocado toast, village omelettes, pancakes both sweet and savoury, Greek yoghurt with honey and nuts.
Until 15:00
Greek classics
Stifado, sofrito, corfiot pastitsada, moussaka, lamb exochiko from the oven and gyros off the spit.
Greek dishes
Grill & fresh fish
Lamb chops and fillet steak from the grill, whole sea bass and bream, grilled octopus, prawns with garlic and a seafood plate to share.
Grill and sea
Drinks, cocktails & ice cream
Corfu beer on draught, Greek wines by the glass and the bottle, proper cocktails, and ice cream coupes big enough to share.
Drinks menu
Late afternoon
Stay for the sunset
Acharavi looks out across the channel to the mountains of Albania, and towards evening the light comes off the water and turns everything orange.
Order something cold, order something to pick at, and let dinner wait half an hour. It is the best table in the house and it costs nothing extra.
