Breakfast is usually an afterthought in Greek resort towns — a pavement, a Nescafé, a stale croissant. Skiathos is a genuine exception, and one of its breakfast cafés is among the highest-rated places to eat anywhere on the island.
Il Posto, one quiet street above the Papadiamantis crush, holds 4.8 on both Tripadvisor and Restaurant Guru and 4.7 on Google — at café prices. Meltemi in the new port runs from 6:30am to 2:30am and is the most reliable kitchen on the island for gluten-free and vegan diners.
For pastry rather than a sit-down meal, Mamma Mia on Papadiamantis is run by two sisters and makes a pistachio baklava worth crossing town for.
