Always pleasant, even if you aren't a regular. I've visited alone and with others and it's always a nice vibe. I also love that they allow well behaved dogs

My absolute favorite cocktail bar of Athens. It’s my comfort spot, a place to take friends and family, go on a date, play a board game, ect. You can’t find a more beautiful atmosphere for a nice cocktail plus they make my favorite rendition of a bees knees!

Cozy bar with a nice, dark atmosphere. Cocktails were well made and reasonably priced. Service was a bit gruff, but not rude. Good place for a romantic after-dinner drink.

I cannot recommend this bar enough! The bartenders are friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating (shout out to Elspeth for making me a delicious mocktail). The vibe is dark but lit - if you’re vaccinated and in Athens, this place is a must-visit!
