the bar plays a very good mellow music (English).
price-wise I find it very cheap 3,50 Euros for a pint of beer. While is ONLY 3 Euros for Ouzo drink you get also complimentary snacks with your drinks.

Dress Code: All

It is situated at the tallest part of the city, at Akrotiri, it offers the best view of the town of Chania. You should try to find one of the tables situated at the main veranda and order chocolate cake with ice cream.

If you are young, like party and took something more than khaki shorts on your trip to Chania, you must go to eastern part of Chania at night.
Just start at the Old Venetian Harbour and follow harbour boardwalk for about 10-15 minutes (off course only at night.
----------SEE MAP!!!---------
You will find yourself surrounded by thousands of young people eating, drinking and having a good time.
It is a modern part of Chania with nice small hotels, and clubs. I call it SOHO of Chania, or Manhattan of Chania.
I know, it is not for all of you who come to Crete to see only Knossos like places. But if you came to have a good time and mingle with other tourists and young Greeks. THIS IS A PLACE TO BE AT NIGHT.

Dress Code: Well,............ you can see there lots of famous designer outfits, as well as lots of body parts (it is hot, very hot).
Wear whatever you are wearing when you are going to the summer party.

And make sure you know your way home, since you will be little.....out of alignment after few hours there.

Dress Code: And sure after you have too much raki you can take your shoes off and walk to the hotel barefoot.......ot is OK!!!

As I was in Chania in late May/early June, not much was happening around the harbor. This bar was the only one that was packed & it was lots of fun.

Dress Code: It appeared to me that anything goes....I wore jeans, sandals & a short sleeve button down shirt & fit right in.

My friends and I wanted to experiecne real Greek nightlife. So, we asked just about every person we encountered, and finally settled on this club. While I can definitely say I am not a big fan of Greek music, it was worth checking out, just to see and hear the real thing. It is worth seeing, and its free to get in and cheap drinks, so, nothing to lose!
