Keri · Zakynthos · Greece

Where the sea sea meets the table

A hilltop taverna overlooking the Keri Gulf, surrounded by ancient olive groves and the island’s quietest light.

Our Story

A place built on passion and Zakynthian soil

The Windmill is not just a restaurant — it’s a living part of Keri. Perched on the hillside with a sweeping view of the bay and the famous Marathonisi islet, every table here is a front-row seat to something beautiful.

We cook with pride. Local cheeses, freshly caught seafood, herbs from the garden. Nothing complicated — just honest food made with care, served where the breeze smells of thyme and sea salt.
