It may not be in Stoupa, but a short drive up to the sleepy village of Neochori, Thea Manis offers a culinary experience that perfectly blends traditional Greek flavours with a breathtaking setting. This delightful restaurant is a must-visit for anyone exploring the Mani region beyond Stoupa village.
The menu at Thea Manis is a celebration of local ingredients, with dishes crafted from fresh produce sourced from nearby farms and markets. Guests can indulge in authentic Greek classics like moussaka, vibrant salads, local sausage and an array of fresh seafood specials.
The outdoor seating area provides stunning views of the surrounding landscape, making it an ideal spot for a leisurely meal. The setting is particularly magical during sunset, transforming a simple dinner into a romantic and unforgettable occasion.
Reservations are recommended, especially during peak season, to secure a table and a front-row seat to the spectacular sunset. At quieter times, if you have no other means of transport, the restaurant owner may even be able to pick you up from Stoupa and drop you back off after your meal.
