Zach's Welcome
About
Found on Crete, Zach's Welcome sits at Souliou 40 in Rethymno, a base that puts the tavernas and lanes of the old town within walking distance. Rethymno lies on the north coast roughly midway between Chania and Heraklion, so the towns either side are straightforward to reach by road or bus.
Zach's Welcome is a restaurant, and its 4.8/5 rating from 112 reviews places it among the better-reviewed tables in the area. Diners passing through Rethymno on the way to Agios Nikolaos or Ierapetra often stop here, and the kitchen's standing rests on that steady run of feedback. The venue's website, https://www.welcomecrete.gr/, is the main online reference for anyone planning a meal.
Rethymno itself is one of the island's larger towns, with a compact centre that visitors cover on foot. Because the town sits on the main coastal route, reaching it from the resorts along the north coast takes little effort.
On Crete, daily life slows in the afternoon and tavernas serve late into the evening, which shapes how a meal here fits into a day. Ferries and high-speed catamarans connect the islands to Piraeus, Rafina and each other, though winter services are fewer, so arrivals by sea need a little planning.
