Booking a group dinner in Mykonos

  • Tavernas are happy to serve family-style meze for groups. Book caldera-view tables weeks ahead in summer.
  • Dinner starts late, often 9 to 10 pm in summer.
  • Tipping: Around 5 to 10% in restaurants is customary for good service. Round up taxi fares.
  • Book two to three months ahead for groups over 20, especially in high season (May to June, September to early October).
  • Ask about deposits, minimum spend and the cancellation policy in writing.
  • Plan transport back to the hotels. Renting an ATV is popular, but roads are narrow and busy.
