About US
Welcome to zimis
Founded in 2010 by Jim and Zoe, Zimis was created from a passion for quality food, traditional recipes, and handmade dough products. After gaining experience in Australia and Athens, they chose the beautiful island of Lefkada as the place to share their knowledge and love of authentic cooking.
Located opposite the historic Agios Minas Church in the heart of Lefkada Town, Zimis has become a favourite destination for local residents, Greek holidaymakers, and visitors from around the world.
Our story
At the heart of Zimis is a passion for dough. Using recipes and techniques refined over many years, we prepare a wide range of handmade pastries, traditional pies, and authentic Neapolitan-style pizzas.
Many of our signature products are baked in a specially crafted wood-fired oven using natural wood and quality ingredients. Combined with experience gained in both Australia and Greece, this commitment to craftsmanship creates the flavours our customers have come to know and enjoy.
THE ZIMIS EXPERIENCE
Whether you are joining us for breakfast, lunch, dinner, takeaway, or delivery, our menu brings together traditional Greek favourites and Italian trattoria classics.
From wood-fired pizzas and peinirli to pasta, salads, bougatsa, crepes, and handmade pastries, there is something for everyone to enjoy. We invite you to relax, enjoy our hospitality, and experience the flavours that have made Zimis a well-loved part of the Lefkada community.
