9 Kolokotroni Athens

21:00 @ 9

"Dimitris (the owner) and Stella (the bartender) are great at mixing flavors and serving special tropical cocktails and spirits from all over the world."

9 BAR, aka Kolokotroni 9, opened on 09/09/2015. That little all-day cozy bar aspires to become your tropical hideaway in the heart of Athens. The modern decoration with miniatures from Asia and Africa create the perfect atmosphere to transport you far away! Every morning they serve coffee, juices and tea as well. It is the place to be for after-office drinks.

Every season the cocktail list is renewed with different combinations and creations by Dimitris (the owner) and Stella (the bartender) who know how to mix flavors and serve special tropical cocktails and spirits from all over the world. Every night, different DJs with great taste in music (electro, house, minimal) will set the perfect mood. In the summertime, 9 BAR transforms into a botanical urban - concrete garden that takes the crafted cocktails and music in the "open air" in our outdoor cafe. When winter sneaks in, and all seats are taken in the bar, you can still climb up at 9 upstairs, our well-hidden loft, which occasionally hosts small meetings and private events. Keep an open taste bud and "imbibe" 9 BAR. Recommended for early drinks and late shots!

Au Revoir

Classic and unique

"Au Revoir" is, simply put, the oldest bar in Athens. It opened in 1958 and has been serving classic drinks since then. Even Frank Sinatra paid a visit.

Babouras

Feel the buzz of Petralona

"Babouras" Athens is a cafe/bar in Petralona that combines the old with the new. My tip would be to bring your camera with you - the light's very pretty.

Rema Pikrodafnis

Athenian wilderness

"Rema Pikrodafnis" is one of the few relatively untouched streams in Athens. I love this seemingly abandoned part of it, a symbol of what Greece really is.

Parko Eleftherias

Picnic time in the oasis

"Parko Eleftherias" in Athens is one of the few well-kept, moderately large parks in the city. I recommend it for picnics and just relaxing on the grass...
