Green Kukunari

Just an hour's drive from Heraklion and only 5 minutes from the famous Matala beach, you'll find Green Kukunari in the charming village of Pitsidia — quite possibly the most well-known vegan restaurant in Crete, and definitely a spot worth visiting.

What makes it special? The warm and inviting atmosphere, the creative and delicious plant-based dishes, and the peaceful courtyard where you can also enjoy your coffee or drink.
It’s the perfect stop after a stroll through Matala or a swim at nearby Kommos beach — two must-see places during your holiday in Crete.
