Fun and entertainment Ionian Islands

A couple of James Bond fans have lined the café with photos from the 007 films. Released in 1981, Nothing But Your Eyes was partly filmed in Corfu, particularly in the Paleokastritsa area. One scene was even filmed at the very location of the café. Connoisseurs will recognize it, or the owners will remind you. Otherwise, Eleni, the owner, prepares excellent lemon and apple cakes. You can also have mezzedes washed down with ouzo. To top it all off, the welcome here is very friendly.

A beautiful atmosphere, right above the waves. As the name suggests, you're on the rocks overlooking the crystal-clear beach of Aghios Nikitas. Is there anything better than drinking your coffee by the sea? The setting is truly sumptuous, and you can quench your thirst with iced coffee, iced drinks and ice creams in this inviting beach bar. On the menu: light refreshments and cocktails, with pleasant, professional service. At sunset, of course, the scenery is even more fascinating!

A very pretty beach bar: just across the bay from Agios Nikitas, Captain's Corner serves coffee and drinks all day long, until late at night. Very pretty setting with sea views, and the cocktails are excellent! Probably the best on the island, with a breathtaking view. Nice music at normal volume! You can also have mezzedes, small fried fish and salads, with an ouzo. Even families are welcome: even if the bar fills up quickly, children can still play on the beach.

A trendy café in an alleyway in Gaios where the blooming bougainvillea hangs above the tables. It is at Café Kalimera that you can enjoy a refreshing beer with the locals or a breakfast, consisting of Greek yoghurt and fruit, on the terrace. This café, a little set back from the main square of Gaios, has a very nice room and a terrace that takes over the street, with its tables and chairs, and sometimes even cushions on the floor! The ideal place to drink a beer, cocktails or snacks.

Here's an establishment in the hills that can be reached by car via a very narrow path (although it's also possible to get there on foot). Terrace with a splendid view of the coast of Afionas and the beach of Aghios Georgios, impeccable service, and a real treat on the plate. You can stop off here after a sporty jaunt to Porto Timoni, one of Corfu's most beautiful beaches. The menu is well-stocked with good, hearty dishes. However, the restaurant is a little pricey, so we recommend just having a coffee or dessert!

It is easy to see why it is considered the best place in the village to have a drink or a snack. The place is ideal for coffee or breakfast in Avlemonas with a beautiful view of the small boat harbour. It is also a good place to have a drink in the evening. On the small harbour, this café-bar offers good breakfasts and in the evening excellent cocktails. The music is carefully chosen and the setting is dreamy!

Hidden in the mountains above Assos, this charming little café offers delicious cakes made with love by Rosie. Some lunchtime dishes are also concocted by the owner. The food is excellent and the plates are hearty. The colourful terrace with a view of the surrounding hills is sublime! The owner and staff are very friendly and attentive, and the view is magnificent. The perfect place to have a meal in the fresh air. We recommend you stop by, even if it's just for a drink.

A paradisiacal and impressive view on the Argassi bay and a refined decor perfect for a romantic evening! The cocktails are worthy of the best Parisian bars. Al Nur also serves excellent modern cuisine: beef cheeks with gnocchi and chicken with asparagus and artichokes are very popular dishes! With a wonderful sunset, usually, on the program in the evening. Impeccable service and beautiful, refined cuisine.

A café-bar facing the sea that serves fresh cocktails at reasonable prices. Throughout the day, to the sound of the waves and ambient music, you can enjoy coffee, fresh fruit juice and ice cream. In the evening, candles light up the tables, the setting is romantic and relaxing. You will find a very good home-made hamburger. Not typical of Greek cuisine, but hearty and ideal for a quick bite to eat and enjoy the beach, before getting back on the boat and sailing off to new gastronomic adventures.

We found it by chance on the main road and appreciated the very good service of Sofia and her coffee. This café with wooden tables on the terrace does not look like much. But the breakfasts are wonderful, and what can we say about the apple pie! Espressos, cappuccinos, freddos of excellent quality. But also omelettes, baguette sandwiches, yoghurt with muesli or with nuts and fruit. There's even a full English breakfast on the menu (so something for everyone...). Very friendly setting.

This friendly café has an original hippy chic decor and you'll want to spend hours on their wooden benches. The establishment serves organic coffees and produce. It's as beautiful as it looks in the photos, and the people there are very friendly! Their teas and smoothies are particularly tasty. In the evening, the cocktails are very pleasant. We recommend this place for a break at any time of day. And in a corner of the café is a grocery store where you can buy local organic produce.

This is a casual place with international and lounge music, very nice to have a few drinks. The drink selection is incredible, including many different cocktails. It's not very big but it makes the bar cosy and the sea view is amazing! The prices are very reasonable: beer for €3 or €4, glass of wine for €3 and during happy hour from 5:30pm to 8:30pm cocktails are only €5! The welcome is great and the setting, with a large terrace facing the sea, is relaxing.

In a beautiful building dating from 1650, there is a theatre for 250 people. From June to September, apart from theatrical performances, there are also photo and painting exhibitions, jazz and classical music concerts. Dance and music workshops are also held on stage during the season. And on the terrace, under the thick shade of the hundred-year-old olive trees, a wooden terrace offers yoga-fitness classes in the late afternoon, in season. Finally, a bistro is also hidden in this cultural centre which is worth a visit!

A family-run café-bar on the beach that's open from early morning until late at night. It's well worth having an evening drink by the sea, with a view of the illuminated castle. Live concerts are regularly scheduled and world music is played nightly in this bar with its regulars. Perfect service, great atmosphere and great music! The cocktails are sumptuous: the house specialty, when we visited, was a port mixed with bananas. In the mornings, superb brunches are a must-try too!

A large terrace surrounded by a waterfall and flowers. An ideal place to spend a relaxing summer evening. Fruity cocktails, ice cream, excellent desserts. You can also have a bite to eat. The green Thai curry (amazing, yes...) seems to be very successful. In any case, what we remember most is the pleasant atmosphere and the excellent value for money. The location is nice and the gardens and fountain make a charming setting for a drink or a bite to eat in this beautiful place.

Wonderfully located in Longos, you will enjoy a terrace that overlooks the sea and not the port. With your feet in the water, or on the slightly raised terrace with a view of the sea, you can sip excellent cocktails or a glass of wine from the local grape varieties. The setting is enchanting. Kostas sets the mood in his bar and remembers all his customers with whom he likes to have a chat. We had a very good time relaxing there. To keep our feet in the water after a beautiful day at sea or lying on the beach!

A waterfront bar in the quiet village of Lygia. Cocktails, billiards, football nights, theme parties... It's mainly for its atmosphere that you come to Lygia and the bar, which is run by Spyros with great enthusiasm. The regulars come here every night, and you will be welcomed by everyone! You can drink a beer or any cocktail and/or play games. In short, the place prides itself on welcoming all audiences and all ages. If you are looking for a club more in the style of Mykonos or Ios, you won't find it here.

Faced with yachts and pleasure boats, sipping a cool cocktail in summer is a must! At the Wave Bar, you can choose between excellent cocktails, smoothies, crêpes and desserts. While the drinks menu is well-stocked, you can also come to the Wave Bar for brunch, a burger, pita sandwich or pizza... The staff are friendly, and the DJ keeps the party going all night long! Food and atmosphere. You'll also have the best view of the harbor all the way to Albania.

This wine bar, run by Pavlos Soueref, offers a nice menu for a drink before eating, which you can accompany with a plate of 24-month-old gravel. There is also an elegant dining area with wine-related decorations such as corks and wine crates, as well as an open kitchen, where you may want to linger. Its creative dishes offer Greek cuisine revisited like this delicious octopus casserole with mastic, thyme, caramelised onions and fava

In the marina of Sivota, opposite the yachts, this cosy café serves tasty coffees as well as fresh fruit juices, snacks, waffles and other sweets. Inside the stone house, an old olive press has been preserved. The waiters are also very friendly. If you visit Sivota you must stop here for a drink. It is a charming little bar and there is a lot of choice. You will find cocktails in the evening and different dining options. The terrace is quite magical.

A snack bar ideally located near the Canal d'Amour. In the kitchen, you will be served quality snack food , often accompanied by homemade fries. During the day, you can enjoy a cocktail by the pool and in the evening a beer while playing a game of pool. In season, theme nights are organized and it is here that the festive and joyful atmosphere of the mild Greek summer evenings is established. The service is really nice, the two young brothers who run the place are in a contagious good mood.
