Fun and entertainment Ionian Islands

Located in a street adjacent to the Liston, this bar deserves to be known. The terrace is set in the heart of old Corfu. This pleasant café - and less expensive than the palace of the same name in Paris - is pleasant during the day for its jazz or lounge music, then it turns into a lively bar in the evening, literally taken over by Corfu students. The cocktails are delicious: try the very original one made with kumquat liqueur, a specialty of the island! It's called the "kumquat o'clock", and it's a real treat!

You can stay all day in this popular spot for the local youth. There is a different atmosphere at every hour of the day in this beautiful beachfront location, with extremely helpful and friendly staff. Juices and coffees to discover, as well as its deckchairs. Excellent beach beer and cocktails in the evening, with international music, usually with two guest DJs per night. In short, a good atmosphere to discover in one or more times depending on the time. Sandwiches, toasts, snacks and cooked dishes only during the day from 9am to 6pm.

A design place easily recognizable with its pink colors. It serves cocktails but also steaks, burgers, poultry... Plasma TV, dancing, DJ... The place opened in Laganas in the summer of 2006 and has been dancing (almost) non-stop ever since. This popular place for young people has a total capacity of 1,000 people and hosts international events and DJs from all over the world. It is also possible to eat there and reserve a table. Upcoming program and menus to be discovered online!

Winter and summer alike, this trendy café is a favourite with Corfiotes. As we walked by, we noticed that its outdoor terrace was always busy. And we quickly understand why! The view on the bay and the old fort of Corfu is irresistible. The coffee is very good, and the breakfasts too! Try the feta cheese omelette for example, it's very tasty. The café serves snacks all day, burgers, huge salads and excellent sandwiches. If you are with your family, the children can play in the nearby park.

A bar in the center of Fiskardo, in a beautiful pre-earthquake house on a pedestrian street. It's the ideal place to sip a cocktail, watch a soccer match or live concerts, depending on the day. The establishment offers excellent cocktails and refreshing drinks. We recommend the house lemonade. The prices are right and the waiters friendly. It's also a rare place in Fiskardo where people can play and hear live music. It's easy to see why it's a meeting place for the local youth!

Right on the water, this charming little café offers excellent breakfasts: espresso or cappuccino, fresh orange juice, omelettes, pancakes... It is often taken by storm and it is easy to see why. Sitting in its lovely sofas, you can enjoy the view of the port of Kioni, which looks magnificent and idyllic. In the evening the establishment is just as pleasant and you can sip excellent cocktails, or, to be more in the Greek tradition, aperitif alcohols like ouzo, tsipouro, often accompanied by small mezzedes.

One of the many cafés along the Liston: this beautiful café has a large terrace overlooking the Spianada, Corfu's large park, which is a very pleasant spot in all seasons. The atmosphere is friendly, and Corfiotes are happy to mingle with tourists for long evenings! It's one of the town's most popular - and often fully booked - places to enjoy a coffee or glass of wine at any time of day. You can sit for hours and watch the crowds go by on their way to and from the beach and the old town.

An incredible bar by the sea. At the very end of the pier, here's where to find excellent cocktails and fresh fruit juices. Exceptional vantage point, with views of the port on one side and the open sea on the other... Admittedly, the coffees are more expensive than elsewhere and the service not always up to scratch. But this is a place to pay for yourself, and there's something for everyone. What's more, you can relax here at any time. In the morning, breakfast is tasty. In the evening, you can enjoy an aperitif in front of the sunset, sometimes with live music.

This bar-crêperie-tea house at the beginning of the harbour is often noticeable by the length of the queue in front of it. If you don't come to Paxos for its nightlife, you'll soon find consolation in the food. This adorable café offers excellent ice cream and homemade pastries. The crepes, while not up to the standard of Brittany, are a real treat, and the homemade ice creams are delicious. The coffee - hot or cold - is also worth the detour, especially since everything is served, most of the time, with a smile.

We're so happy to find a (real) espresso in the old town! Here, a few tables overlook one of Corfu's quietest and most pleasant squares. A small inner courtyard, to the left of the bar, is very pleasant and shady. A relaxing atmosphere, with a little music, and very comfortable seats. A beautiful courtyard, with a huge fan when the heat is on. Coffee and drinks are reasonably priced, and the staff are very friendly. And if it's too hot, try the iced tea, not bad either...

At the foot of the Esplanade ramparts, a great place to eat and dance. A good atmosphere with a view of Corfu Fort, good cocktails, house and techno music. The food is good, well presented and reasonably priced. On some evenings, a DJ is present, so you can get straight on with the evening. The bar is on two levels, elegant and close to the sea, so you can dance to international hits well into the night. In summer, a lively and exceptional atmosphere is guaranteed!

It bears its name in all simplicity on the eponymous promenade. On this esplanade, which looks like the Rue de Rivoli, the prices are not the same as in Paris, however, and the atmosphere is undoubtedly a little more relaxed. Despite a well-stocked menu, we must admit that we prefer to come here for a drink, to chat and to watch life go by. It's ideal at the end of the evening and practical when waiting for the bus to go to Kanoni or before the taxi to the airport for example. The place is also worth a visit for its breakfasts.

Kythera is not really a party destination. Nevertheless, Astikon remains the place to be for all those who want to enjoy the long summer evenings. Almost every night in the summer, live concerts are organized and all the youth meet in this bar. The cocktails are incredible, try the lemonada (fresh lemon juice with tequila or rum depending on your taste). You can also have a wonderful breakfast here. The welcome is friendly and the decor, both vintage and trendy, is superb.

You will find entertainment at all hours. On the port of Zakynthos, this establishment welcomes all the youth of the island, from morning to night, from breakfast to the last drink. You can have a brunch here, with salmon eggs Benedict, scrambled eggs, toast, pancakes... At any time of the day, you can also eat: the salads, pasta dishes and burgers are delicious. In short, a good atmosphere, very friendly staff, fast service and very good and tasty food.

In front of the yachts and the small friendly harbour of Agia Efimia, you can have a full breakfast or just a coffee. In the evening, the local youth likes to meet for a cocktail and listen to live concerts of Greek bands on some summer nights. This is one of the most fashionable and popular spots on the coast: located in the busiest part of the port of Agia Efimia with a view of the sea, yachts and passing tourists, this bar-restaurant is the ideal place, at any time of the day, to have a drink or a bite to eat

Overlooking the entire city of Zakynthos, near the city's citadel, you will have a breathtaking life from this café. It is mainly for this exceptional view, and the romantic evening setting, that you should come to this café-bar. The cocktails, fresh juices and ice creams are very good and the prices are not exaggerated. Maybe we were lucky but the staff were incredibly friendly and smiling. Small food, nice and light. The magical view of the spot and the sea breeze will make you appreciate your stop even more!

A beautiful place to spend the day. This beach bar with deckchairs and big cosy sofas is beautiful between the sea, the beach and the greenery of a well kept garden. The service is professional and you can have a coffee or a drink in the evening. The quality of the entire offer, from coffee to food to cocktails, contrasts with the rest of the offer on the beach. The establishment also offers excellent dishes: risottos, pastas, salads, burgers... There is also an accessories store (jewelry, ceramics, souvenirs).

A vintage café that plays selective and relaxing lounge and jazz music. Some tables by the water, and others inside in a neat decor. Breakfasts are tasty and hearty (try the fruit smoothies and yogurt). Coffee, cocktails and homemade desserts are also available. The baklava and orange cake are worth a try! There are places outside in the alley in the shade or in the sun as well as a large terrace on the harbour side. And in the evening, the place transforms into THE cocktail bar!

A nice bar in the Chora, with a nice terrace. Maybe you will find, as we did, that this is the best café to have a full breakfast? Pancakes, scrambled eggs, toast, fresh fruit juice, coffee of all kinds... The establishment also offers excellent desserts served throughout the day: cheesecake, waffles, apple pie. Sweets that can be enjoyed with a panoramic view of the Cytherean countryside. The quality of the food is honest, the service is excellent and the coffee is good. What more could you ask for?
