ABOUT

Chania offers a selection of must-visit places, and one such gem is located on the hill of Prophet Elias in Kounoupidiana. Here, visitors are treated to not only the magnificent monument dedicated to the renowned Venizelos duo, Eleftherios and Sophocles, situated in a picturesque garden overlooking the bay, but also the renowned Koukouvayia (meaning ‘owl’ in Greek) café. This charming café is famous for its delightful specialty called ‘Juicy’ (‘zoomero’ in Greek) – a generous portion of syrupy chocolate pie with a one-of-a-kind recipe. Guests can indulge in this delectable treat while sitting on an unbeatable balcony, savouring coffee and enjoying panoramic views of the entire city. The creation of Koukouvayia in 1997 was inspired by the cherished memories of Aristides, the owner's grandfather, and the Markantonakis family's passion for confectionery. Housed in Aristides’ old country house, Koukouvayia has captivated the hearts of thousands of visitors, both locals and foreigners, who have been enchanted by its cosy ambiance and the breath-taking vistas of the endless blue sea.

We are immensely proud of our celebrated confections, including beloved favourites like 'Juicy,' 'Igloo,' and 'Confection by Meropi,' among others. These delectable treats are crafted using secret recipes, infused with endless passion and love, and made with the finest quality pure ingredients. We are grateful for the trust you have placed in us throughout the years, and we assure you that our commitment to perfection and passion will remain unwavering.
