Top Breakfast Spots in Corfu
Discover the best spots on our island for a delicious breakfast and coffee!
What better way to start your day than with a delicious coffee in the town centre. After all, a good day starts in the morning... with a coffee, one might say. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and for this reason it has to be rich to keep us healthy and strong in order to do our daily tasks or start our day dynamically and in a pleasant way. Sometimes we wonder if we could not limit ourselves to a simple coffee and enjoy a proper breakfast instead.
Below you will find delicious and traditional options for breakfast on our island, as well as cafes since coffee is a must in the Greek breakfast. Classic and beloved places of Corfu that have written their own history and have a special place in our hearts as for many of us they are part of our daily routine.
It is known that Corfu's butter is unlike any other. Its delicate taste, creamy texture and rich yellow colour is due to the pure rearing of cows by Corfu's nature. A butter that has been made for 80 years now in the old town. From the time of King Otto to Onassis and Jackie Kennedy, who wanted her breakfast to be accompanied by this particular Corfiot butter, this product seems to have made history. So how could we not include Alexis' dairy shop in Pinia. A rich breakfast combined with honey and fresh bread with which many generations have grown up and is still talked about to this day in every corner of the world. The pleasure is completed with a vanilla or chocolate cream, sheep milk yoghurt or rice pudding with cinnamon.

Omelets with whatever you wish, strapatsada and traditional pies made with the purest ingredients combined with freshly squeezed orange juice or homemade Greek coffee - the most wonderful way to start your day!
