Our Heritage

A Family Taverna in Kastraki

Since 1982 — Near Kalambaka & Meteora

Nestled in the charming village of Kastraki, beneath the awe-inspiring Meteora rock formations and just minutes from Kalambaka, Taverna Xarama has been welcoming guests for over four decades. What began as a humble family grill has grown into one of the best-rated tavernas in Meteora and the wider Kalambaka area.

Every dish that leaves our kitchen carries the love, recipes, and traditions passed down through three generations. Our specialty is the traditional Greek σούβλα — the ancient art of slow-grilling meats over charcoal, perfected over forty years of dedication. Whether you're searching for restaurants in Meteora, tavernas in Kastraki, or the best restaurant in Kalambaka, you'll find your answer here.
