Very cool, chill bar to relax with some wine or a cocktail. The service is great… they’re so accommodating and it’s clean (including the restrooms). There’s a great view and they have ceiling fans, which is really helpful. 10/10 recommend, especially for your nightcap

Very nice, relaxed café/bar with a wonderful view over Plakias bay and very friendly staff. Food looks good too but I haven't eaten here, so I can't really judge. Only downside is the street directly in front of the bar but that's almost standard here on the seaside in Plakias.
