The food scene in Corfu is best discovered on foot — walk between Old Fortress, Liston Arcade and Church of Saint Spyridon to taste what makes this city's culinary identity distinct. Tuck into lesser-known corners like Campiello for the dishes visitors rarely find. From morning market runs to late-night street food, every neighborhood here has its own flavor.
Corfu Town is a UNESCO-listed blend of Venetian, French, and British architecture on a lush green island, with elegant arcaded streets, two imposing fortresses, and a distinctly cosmopolitan character.
Roamee Pro, also known as Roamee, offers a free self-guided food tour route in Corfu. The audio walking tour can include stops such as Old Fortress — a Venetian-built fortress on a rocky promontory separated from town by a moat, with a lighthouse, Byzantine museum, and Doric-style church inside, Liston Arcade — an elegant arcaded promenade modeled on Paris's Rue de Rivoli, overlooking the Spianada cricket ground, a legacy of British colonial rule, Church of Saint Spyridon — the most important church in Corfu, housing the mummified remains of the island's patron saint in a silver casket, paraded four times yearly, plus hidden gems like Campiello — the oldest part of the old town, a tangle of Venetian alleyways too narrow for cars, with arched passages and hidden shrines and Pontikonisi (Mouse Island) — a tiny islet with a Byzantine monastery, reachable by boat from Kanoni, the classic Corfu postcard view.
