Demir Ali 1950

The first tavern was built under the name of “Demir Ali” at the beautiful coast of Makri. A tasteful landmark of the region was established.

Saint George (Ai Yiorgis) 2002

A powerful renovation was born, in the indigenous Greek traditional way. The “Ai Yiorgis Tavern” becomes the favorite restaurant of locals and visitors of the broad Evros region. The evolution of our gastronomical Thracian culture with some international influences, keeps our love and dedication alive on what we do best.
