The Taverna

The Taverna is a stone building covered in Stucco and decorated with flowers. The roof is made from red tiles and two large bowls of flowers stand by the door. It is the local meeting place for hoplite warriors off duty and the citizens of Pavlopetri.
It is a very clean Taverna, due to the diligence of the barkeep, Mimi, a satyr who came to town a few years ago.
There are several tables and chairs, a fireplace that always seems to be roasting some animal whatever the time of a day, and a bar with several mugs and bottles upon it.
The Taverna sells many fine wines and beers from all over Hellas, and the local mead. Behind the bar are many amphora filled with wine and beer, sacks of food and fresh vegetables and fruits.
There is always a jovial, festive atmosphere lead by Mimi who loves to play her pipes for the enjoyment of all.
