About
Nissos Café-Bar is a welcoming coffee shop nestled in the area of Evreiaki, offering visitors a relaxed spot to unwind with a well-made coffee or a refreshing drink. The name "Nissos," meaning "island" in Greek, captures the spirit of the place — a distinctly local hangout where the unhurried pace of Lesvos life is very much on the menu alongside the espresso.
Whether you stop in for a morning freddo, an afternoon frappe, or something stronger as the day winds down, Nissos blends the comforts of a café with the easy sociability of a bar. It's the kind of place where locals linger and travelers are quickly made to feel at home, making it an ideal perch for soaking up the rhythms of everyday island life.
Before you go
What to expect
Nissos has the unhurried feel of a true local hangout — regulars nursing frappes, easy conversation, and no pressure to move on. It shifts naturally from morning coffee to afternoon drink to early evening aperitivo without changing its character. Come here when you want to sit still and let Lesvos come to you.
Best time to visit
Open year-round; most lively in spring and autumn when locals are around and the heat is gentle.
How to get there
Nissos is in Evreiaki, roughly 10–15 minutes by car from Mytilene heading north along the eastern coast road.

A very warm and friendly welcome and service from a the spontaneous owner Nicos and staff. Food was delicious. Good for a day not only seafood. We took the cheese burger and pasta chicken. We can both recommend. Nice view over a little harbour.

We'd had enough of fish and seafood for days, so we opted for this restaurant on the way to our hotel. We ordered pizza, a cheeseburger, and crepes. All were incredibly delicious and filling. The prices were also very reasonable. Highly recommended.

If you're in the area, definitely stop by for coffee! It's a lovely spot with trendy furniture and a fantastic view. But most importantly, the coffee is excellent! You can also enjoy a delicious pizza or wraps here, and the atmosphere is great. You feel very welcome.
