Greece has a big coffee culture therefore Greeks know how to prepare an excellent coffee.  As evidence, check out the Greek city of Thessaloniki which has thousands of coffee shops!  Moreover, expect a good coffee at the bakery.  Finally, to complement the coffee, I recommend a freshly squeezed orange juice.

Freshly Baked Bread

Lipsi Island can get quite hot in the afternoon.  This is a good time to sit in the shade at the bakery and enjoy an ice cream.

24 Hour Mini Supermarket

Lipsi Island is relatively small and therefore does not have a large supermarket.  However, in the Kairi Bakery you can buy essential products at fair prices.  Additionally, if you’re after a late night drink, you can even buy beers for not much more than a euro.  There’s also a large flat screen TV where you can enjoy live sports.
