Eight meze beat eighty menu lines
Barba Giannis kai Maritsa keeps a small table in central Skyros Town, serving a short list that reads like a household lunch. Fava, meatballs, fried bread, strapatsada, imam and tomato salad arrive without elaborate plating or a harbour surcharge.
Ask what is ready and take four plates for two before adding anything. Variety stays deliberately narrow, seating is limited and published hours remain unreliable; call first, carry cash and order the meatballs before they run out.
What visitors say
Barba Giannis kai Maritsa rates 4.5 from about 96 Tripadvisor reviews and 4.8 across roughly 600 aggregated votes; meatballs, fava and low-cost meze lead praise, though the evidence base remains moderate.
