Third Thursday | Taverna Cretekou | August 18, 2011

Join us on Thursday, 8/18, at 818 King St in Old Town Alexandria as Third Thursday comes to Taverna Cretekou, a mainstay in the Greek restaurant scene since 1973.  While Taverna Cretekou doesn't have a physical bar, what it does have is great food, live bouzoukia, and a picturesque vine-trellised garden patio perfect for lounging on a warm summer's night.  We will have a large communal table of 15 reserved inside starting at 7:00 PM, but in order to secure additional prime seating near the band, please RSVP to [email protected] by no later than Wednesday, 8/17/11, at 5:00 PM, so we can make the appropriate arrangements.

If you have a suggestion on where the next Third Thursday should be, email us at [email protected], join our Facebook group. We would love to hear from you!


Since 2001, Third Thursday has provided Greek-Americans, Greeks, Cypriots, and Philhellenes from the Washington, DC area and beyond the chance to meet every month in a relaxed atmosphere, particularly welcoming those who have moved from different parts of the country for work or school into the greater DC area Greek community.  With visits to a variety of bars, restaurants, and lounges in the most vibrant neighborhoods of DC, Maryland, and Virginia, Third Thursday is a great way to catch up with old friends and make new ones in the Greek community.  As it now embarks on its third iteration since its founding, we promise to maintain the simple principles of its founders, while expanding the event to an ever-changing audience of Greeks in the area.  We look forward to seeing you -- or meeting you for the first time -- at the next Third Thursday.
