Checked out The Eggares Press Museum, Café and Shop. The free was engaging and informative. Best thing was they had every one of their available to sample; olives, EVOO, oil cake, pastes and marmalades. My favourite was the curry infused EVOO and oregano olives. Bought a couple of extra virgin oil bottles (6,80€ for 100mL) as gifts. They even gave us a bar of oil soap to try. Rented e-bikes from Naxos and ventured out to visit the area. Found this great little of in a small town. Stopped for the and tastings of olives, jams, breads and many different some of which are infused with essential oils. My favorite was the chocolate one with the bread. Had a frappe and Greek coffee before hitting the road. A must see if you can. Cute little setup with friendly staff. Stopped on the way through and glad we did. Free quick little which wasn’t boring and got to try some samples without any pressure to purchase. We purchased some items as we sat outside beside the cute little garden drinking their fresh lemon juice and some 😊 Even if your not a fan of oil and related products, the short history of how they made oil in this exact location is quite fascinating. After the brief you are invited to sample various with zero push to buy which made the experience quite refreshing. Expect to stay about 45 minutes. Good fun! The highlight of my trip! I loved this so much. The women who work here are so amazing. It’s such a warm and welcoming environment. The information I learned was so interesting and everything that I sampled was extremely delicious!!!! I highly recommend checking this out and supporting their business We had a great in the and learned a lot. The oil and the are sold at the are completely overpriced. You have a lot of free samples which is nice. We wanted to buy a few items but is it just too overpriced. Un super moment, super sympa, une visite intéressante et des bons produits. What a beautiful little find! As and oil lovers, this place was great! The staff were so helpful and the choices of and tastings of were amazing. Not forgetting Mamas best, the oil cake 👌🏽 Man kann einfach nur dankbar sein für so liebe Menschen und so einen tollen Ort mit Familiengeschichte. Wir haben uns sehr über die freundliche und informative Führung, die Herzlichkeit und die feinen Produkte gefreut. Superb place we found by accident. Brilliant of the press room by Marine and the owner. A little tasting of the variety of pastes, and other. Well worth a visit and it's only 15mins from Naxos town. Loved it. A hidden gem for a coffee break or if you need some high quality snacks. This miniature is absolutely charming. The building is beautiful, with a cozy sun terrace perfect for relaxing. Everything here is made with love by women, from the crazy tasty bread to the must-try ice with the best oil or orange-infused oil. Even the coffee is top notch, served in stylish dishes. A must-visit if you’re passing by! During my trip to Greece, I had the pleasure of visiting the Eggares Oil Museum, and it was an absolute highlight. This charming, family-run is not only informative but also incredibly welcoming. From the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted with warm hospitality and a genuine passion for oil production. The itself is small but packed with history, showcasing traditional oil-making techniques with original equipment. The guided was engaging and insightful, providing a glimpse into how oil has been an essential part of Greek culture for centuries. One of the best parts was the tasting! I had the chance to sample a variety of their delicious and homemade products. The flavors were rich and fresh, and I couldn’t resist taking some home as souvenirs. If you’re visiting Naxos, I highly recommend stopping by this hidden gem. It's a perfect blend of history, culture, and incredible flavors-all in a picturesque villiage setting. Great experience and super friendly staff. We did a brief in English with history of oil production on the island followed by incredible tasting of local and products. Cute cafe outside to rest and have some delicious Greek coffee. A must stop. What a fantastic place! We loved it so much that we went there twice. The women that run the store are amazing- super friendly and very inviting. They also offer tours of how oil was made back in the day as well as offer a variety of samples. I was really impressed that they did the tours in so many languages- other than English and Greek, I’m pretty sure I also heard them speak French and German. I’m not usually the biggest ice cream fan, but when my husband wanted to try the oil ice cream, I had to try a bite. And then another and another…. It was so good (not overly sweet, very well balanced) that when we were driving around the next day, I had to make another stop to get it. Well that and the delicious oil cake. They have great outdoor area to sit and enjoy all their offerings as well. Highly recommend! Thank you for a wonderful experience today. We loved sampling all the beautiful and hearing about the history of oil production in Naxos. It was a wonderful travel memory we will treasure. Un lieu exceptionnel ! Tout est beau et doux. La dame et son fils sont adorables. La petite visite est très intéressante. Et les produits sont exceptionnels ! Un lieu à faire et refaire, qu'il fasse beau ou bon. Merci pour ce beau moment de partage. Pour les enfants, le chat est une bonne attraction :-) C'est gratuit, et vous pouvez tout goûter. Évidemment, la politesse est d'acheter des produits à la fin de la visite. Mais de toute façon, on ne peut pas partir les mains vides tellement c'est bon. We came across this while looking for something to do, and oh boy, it was amazing! Not only did we get to learn about t taste test some of the and oil they had in store. (The oil cakes are amazing!) Not to mention there is a adorable cat named "Oliver" and another cat that looks just like him. (I called him "Ollie" since he doesn't have a name yet.) They are so cute and will try to get cuddles and snuggles on every opportunity they have. They shouldn't be that hard to find, as they roam around the museum, and will probably run up to you when they see you first sight. This place is a 5-star for me, and is 100% worth a visit! P.S: I would like to make Ollie's name official. I invite anyone who meets him to call him Ollie too.
