About

Christos Supermarket is a well-stocked local grocery store serving the coastal community of Anaxos and the surrounding Skoutarou area on the northwest coast of Lesvos. For visitors staying in this quieter corner of the island, it provides a convenient one-stop shop for everyday essentials, from fresh produce and dairy to pantry staples, snacks, and cold drinks. Shops like this are the backbone of village life in Lesvos, and Christos is no exception — the kind of place where you can grab supplies for a beach picnic, stock up the kitchen of a rented villa, or simply pick up a cold bottle of water after a long morning in the sun.

What makes a stop here worthwhile beyond convenience is the chance to find locally sourced products alongside the standard supermarket fare. Lesvos is renowned throughout Greece for its extra virgin olive oil, ouzo, and cured olives, and smaller supermarkets in the villages often carry regional brands and artisan goods that larger chain stores do not. Whether you are self-catering for a week or just passing through on the road toward Petra or Molyvos, Christos Supermarket offers a friendly, no-fuss shopping experience rooted in the rhythms of everyday island life.

Before you go

What to expect

The shelves are well-stocked with everyday staples alongside locally produced Lesvos olive oil, regional ouzo, and cured olives — the kind of artisan goods that rarely make it onto chain supermarket shelves. It's an unhurried, friendly village shop, just right for loading up a villa kitchen or pulling together supplies for an afternoon at Anaxos beach.

Best time to visit

Most useful in summer when the Anaxos coastal area fills with visitors; shop early in the morning before the afternoon heat settles in.

How to get there

From Mytilene, head northwest toward Kalloni then continue toward Petra and Anaxos — the drive takes roughly an hour to an hour and a half. The supermarket sits within the small coastal settlement of Anaxos itself.

Nice mini market. The season is over and the goods are about to be sold out. Friendly service. However, we bought most of our things here during our holiday week. However, the opening hours do not match those listed on Google. He told us 9 am-8 pm during the period.

They have everything, the prices are reasonable for a small shop, it's open all the time from early morning until late at night, and the owner is friendly. Luckily he was there to serve us during our vacation.
