 After 1 week in Skala, we ended up at The Old Village many times, the service was great, the food fantastic.
The servants are really so sweet, and they love if you practise a bit from home, and know how to say "the bill", "thank you", "very nice" and so on in greek.

Fantastic place for breakfast! Relaxing and watching Skala drift by, we travelled miles for breakfast here. You can have full English or yoghurt and fruit, everything is lovely and the service fantastic, try it! |

After getting married on the beautiful island of Kefalonia, we held our reception at the Old Village Restaurant. Nikos and Joanna couldn't have been more accommodating, helpful and friendly. We wanted a traditional Greek menu and got exactly what we requested. The food was excellent, well priced and the service was fantastic.
We can't thank Nikos, Joanna, Mama, Jorge, Yannis, Linda and all the staff of The Old Village enough. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Thank you guys, you were great.
Steve and Shirley Watts. |

Don't bother going here! We had the worst meal of our lives and the staff coudn't be bothered.We had the Kleftiko that was stone cold,greasy and disgusting. I know that Greek food isn't served as hot as we're used to in the UK but really this was cold! Spend your euros elsewhere!

| We just got back from Skala and I felt I had to write an amazing review about the old village. We went to a couple of other places but ended up going back many times to the Old Village. The service was outstanding, they were extremely friendly, welcoming and professional. The food was always excellent and we tried most of the greek specialities! He gave us free drinks a few times and taught us some valuable greek words! I cannot speak too highly of this restaurant and its staff!

I have to say the Old Village rescued our holiday last year from being a complete disaster. We went for the October half term and found almost everything shut. The places that were open seemed to be staffed by people who were consistently rude, unhelpful and determined to demonstrate that us tourists were in no way wanted.
However, the Old Village was an entirely different place. We were made to feel welcome, the menu was varied, the staff helpful and the food excellent. We were greeted every night we went in Greek and were encouraged to respond in the same way. We were remembered every time we visited and always made welcome. We had such terrible experiences in the other restaurants that by the end of the week we decided to only frequent the Old Village and they never disappointed. The owner even went as far as taking us home on the last night when there were no taxis available. I can only say that I cannot recommend the Old Village too highly. |

This taverna seems to have gone downhill over the years (since 2001), but it certainly has atmosphere. We didn't try it this year as we knew there was better so I can't comment on the latest situation. Hopefully they will have improved. |

We went here only one night of our stay this year. While the staff are friendly and the welcome is pleasant the service was abysmal. We waited nearly an hour and a half for three pizzas and pasta.
The main man would not admit that he had forgotton to place our order even after several reminders.
Nice surroundings with an interesting story but the service was the pits. We won't go again. |

We enjoyed our meal here we would have returned had we had more time, 7 days is not long enough to try out all the restaurants in Skala would definitely return here. Good value, good food, good service and if you like cats then you will be at home here... |

The Old Village (Zorbas) was a lovely restaurant, a lovely setting in the garden especially. The cat and her kitten were quite an attraction too! My boyfriend and I found it quiet and romantic and full of a better type of clientele (not meaning to be snobby!) than some places. Even when they made a small error on my pizza on our second visit (they forgot to remove the mushrooms) they were great, re-made it and my boyfriend's so we could eat together and apologised and then at the end gave us a couple of lovely watermelon cocktails on the house! Prices not any more than other places and staff very friendly. |

We had lunch here one day and it was good. Nothing standout to be fair, but no complaints at all, and it hit the spot :) I suppose the fact that we only ate there once says something (when compared to Noufaro and Mi Abelli) but thats not to say we wouldn't have gone back. |
