The Mamas

Our story

One kitchen, one family, one island

We had been visiting Kythnos for our summer holidays every single year, for more than twenty years. Even though we had no roots here, our deep desire to connect with this island led us to open our very own "home" just outside Dryopida, on the Merichas-Kythnos provincial road. Mamas Coffee and Meals is a purely family affair, a warm place filled to the brim with our love and passion. Every morning, our coffee machines hum to life, and our counter is piled high with freshly baked pies, sandwiches, and sweet treats. By noon, the kitchen fills with the rich aromas of Greece. You won’t find any set, rigid menus here. We cook traditional, homemade dishes daily using pure ingredients and old family recipes—and, truth be told, the menu changes with the season and Mama’s mood. Instead of a typical restaurant dining room, you will find a beautiful, elevated outdoor seating area with cozy couches and panoramic views, nestled in a spot where the wind softens even when it’s blowing hard everywhere else, offering absolute relaxation. And if you are in a hurry for a dive, all our food is carefully packed to-go, ready to travel with you all the way to the water's edge of the next beach.

«What a fabulous place to stop off in the mountains. The food is homemade and tastes delicious. They also sell handmade sweets. We bought King Of Candy which are small pieces of candy with different fruit flavours. They also do takeaway. Lovely family run business. So helpful. Thank you.»

«A little gem with a big heart! This little cafe is truly magical — with a view that calms you and makes you feel at home. The drinks are made with love, the coffee is aromatic and properly brewed, while the juices and drinks are refreshing and authentic. The music, the smiles of the people and the magnificent view complete the experience. It's the kind of place you want to return to again and again, not just to eat or drink, but to feel.»

«A neat shop and polite staff in a very nice location. We took our morning coffee (perfect coffee) to the beach as well as the well-made baguettes. It also has delicious cooked dishes that you can take home.»

«A shop that was missing from the island. Take away breakfast and lunch to spend your day at the beach. Wonderful flavors and quality! The staff is very kind and smiling! I highly recommend it!»

«The owners are so kind. They chose a clean design that goes so good with the warm wind and the beautiful terrain view that ends with the sea in the background. The place is kept clean and that makes the experience smooth. The coffee is mainstream but the good kind from the mainstream pallet - nespresso. Oh, and the milk foam is one of the thickest haha We.ll visit again for sure. Can.t wait to enjoy the food.»
