Gas Stations - Giannakis Efstratios
Πρατήριο Υγρών Καυσίμων - Γιαννάκης Ευστράτιος
Visitors say
Impeccable service and courtesy!!! It also has an automatic machine so you can add fuel with a card when the gas station is closed.
Polite and helpful, they helped us change the tire and didn't charge us any money. Plus the price of gasoline which is usually one of the lowest
About
Tucked near the village of Larsos in the verdant interior of Lesvos, the Giannakis Efstratios fuel station is one of those quietly essential stops that keeps island exploration running smoothly. For travelers venturing into the olive-grove-covered hills of the island's central region, away from the main coastal arteries, knowing where to refuel is no small matter — and this family-run station fills that role reliably for locals and visitors alike.
Stopping here is also a small window into everyday Lesbian life, far from the tourist-facing bustle of Mytilene or Molyvos. The unhurried rhythm of a rural Greek filling station, where the attendant may well know every car that passes through, offers a moment of authentic connection with the island's working landscape. Whether you are heading toward the pine forests of the southern hills, the thermal springs, or the quieter villages of the interior, a stop at Giannakis Efstratios ensures you can continue your journey without concern.
Before you go
What to expect
This family-run fuel station near Larsos sits in Lesvos's olive-covered inland hills, far from the coastal bustle. It's the kind of practical stop where the attendant likely knows the regulars by name, offering a small but genuine glimpse into rural island life. Travelers heading into the interior will find it a reassuring landmark before venturing further.
Best time to visit
Open year-round; most useful in summer when day-trippers push into the southern hills, pine forests, and quieter inland villages.
How to get there
The station is about 9 km from Mytilene, reached by heading inland toward Larsos through olive-grove countryside — a short drive from the city.

If there is one thing that distinguishes this family business, it is respect for the customer, and ultimately this is what makes a professional unique.

What a shame for the money I've given them for so many years! A rip-off! Not good service at all and the owner is sarcastic. "Bravo". Keep it up
