El Burro Mykonos — Reliable Brunch Outside the Chaos
A local favorite on the ring road of Mykonos — fast, satisfying brunch by day, with a low-key sushi twist in winter.
Quick Facts
Location: Vougli, ring road (between Mykonos Town and south beaches)
Hours (summer): ~07:30 – 18:00
Winter: Sushi Project evenings (select days)
Best for: Easy brunch, quick stops, takeaway
Vibe: Local, efficient, no fuss
Location & Setting
Roadside • Easy parking • No stress
Set just outside Mykonos Town, El Burro is exactly where you go when you don’t want to deal with the center.
It’s practical: easy access, no tight alleys, no waiting around for a table in the heat.
Not scenic. Not romantic.
Just smart and convenient.
Brunch & Coffee
All-day plates • Freddo done right • Fast service
This is where El Burro wins.
- Proper freddo coffee (fast and consistent)
- Eggs, Benedict variations, comfort brunch plates
- Crispy potatoes, solid portions
- Takeaway that actually works when you’re in a rush
Order it right:
Freddo espresso + El Burro Benedict + crispy potatoes
Simple. Effective. No overthinking.
Winter Twist — Sushi Project
Evening pop-up • Maki & nigiri • Different crowd
In winter, El Burro shifts completely.
The Sushi Project takes over in the evenings, bringing a more focused, niche crowd looking for something different on the island.
It’s not a full transformation — but it’s enough to keep the place relevant year-round.
Atmosphere
Local • Fast-paced • Functional
This is not a “sit for hours” brunch.
People come here to:
- Refuel before the beach
- Grab coffee on the way
- Avoid the chaos of town
And that’s exactly why it works.
Practical Tips
- Perfect stop before heading to south beaches
- Great for takeaway or quick sit-down
- Summer = daytime only (closes early)
- Winter = check same-day for sushi nights
Final Take
El Burro doesn’t try to impress — and that’s its strength.
It’s consistent, fast, and reliable in a place where things often aren’t.
If you want a no-drama brunch in Mykonos, this is one of the smartest moves you can make.
