The traditional Cretan tavern “Fagopoteio o Polopetros” is located in Roustika of Rethymno, a small village with rare natural beauty, traditional architecture and hospitable inhabitants.
The antikristo, the snails, the gamopilafo, the mizithropites, the syzuma spaghetti, the eggs with the staka, the apaki and the dakos with the xinomizithra, accompanied by homemade tsikoudia or local wine are just a few of the Cretan delicacies for which “Polopetros” is literally famous all over the world. Because apart from its regular and fanatical guests from all over Crete, during the summer season hundreds of visitors of our island visit it to taste the traditional Cretan cuisine and the warm welcome.
Our tavern is a family business and all the materials we use are either our own production, or we procure them from our village or the surrounding villages, supporting the local economy. We have an outdoor area in Panagia Square, but also a warm indoor area for the winter.
Very often we organize Cretan or folk nights with musicians of our place. We can also host your own events, your wedding, your baptism or your engagement.
