Hello,
We are visiting San Stefano's for the first time in a couple of weeks and it's also our first try at self-catering!  We're wondering if anyone can advise or guide us as to how much cash we should bring for breakfasts and dinners.  We are only visiting for a week but as we don't know the restaurants and what the average price of a meal will be, we're sort of in the dark.  We are booked in at the Tsaros apartments and believe we can have breakfast there for X amount of Euros, so that's good, will save me cooking!!! Any tips on how much cash we'll need will be much appreciated. Also, do the restaurants accept credit cards or do they prefer cash.  We are really excited about our upcoming holiday, it sounds and looks like a super place to unwind in mid May!
Thanks so much☺

How much do you eat???!!!

We stayed at Tsaros last year and would sometimes eat breakfast andn the room (toast and cereal) then have a lunch either at Tsaros pool bar or down in the village.
You can buy a bacon and egg baguette style sarnie at Tsaros with coffee for about €4 each.
Condor in the village does a full english for €5/6 each

Do you normally eat a cooked brekkie at home every day?

Gavlah1973:
Average dinner prices are €3/4 for a starter and €8/9 for a main.
A lot of restaurants do set menus with a choice of a starter and a main inc drink for €8/9

We take circa €1000 for two weeks for everything

hippopots:
Everyone's different on how much they spend.
There is a lot of choice in San Stef, to suit all budgets.
Breakfast has already been mentioned.
There are 4 supermarkets and a bakery, to pick up provisions if necessary.
Sandwiches and toasties are available in quite a few of the bars at lunchtime for about 2 -4 euros.
There are 2 gyros grills, where you can get gyros or souvlaki for just a couple of euros.
A lot of the tavernas do set menus for 7 -10 euros a head, with a couple of others charging slightly more, but nowhere is (in my opinion ) really expensive.
Just don't buy donuts off the 'donut man' on the beach!! Unhygenic, and known to try and rip people off!
 

Waspman:
Credit cards are widely accepted in Agios (San) Stefanos, the exceptions are the following taverna's, Fantasea and Beachcomber both in the old part of the village.
