Rhodes has a rich culinary tradition shaped by Greek, Ottoman, Italian, and Byzantine influences. Start at the New Market (Nea Agora) at Plateia Rimini, Rhodes Town, for fresh produce, local honey, and spices. Then head to the waterfront at Mandraki for grilled octopus, fresh-caught fish, and cold Mythos beer.

Look out for local dishes like pitaroudia (chickpea fritters), melekouni (honey and sesame candy), and loukoumades (Greek doughnuts) drizzled with thyme honey. Pair everything with a glass of local wine from the Emery Winery in Embonas village (~46 km from Rhodes Town, 55 min by car) - one of the island's most underrated stops.

Pro Tip: Skip the tourist-trap restaurants on Socratous Street and walk two blocks deeper into the Old Town. Tavernas on Agiou Fanouriou Street and around Plateia Dorieos serve better food at lower prices to a largely local crowd.
