Best Bars in Kolonaki

Kolonaki drinks like the smart side of Athens, a grid of marble streets below Lycabettus where the cocktails are precise and the rooftops sell the view. These are the Kolonaki bars our editors lead with, from a Japanese highball room to two hotel terraces.

  1. 01

    Mister X

    Cocktail Bar · Kolonaki

    A Japanese style highball bar on Skoufa, flagged by Athens cocktail coverage as the city's most precise counter bar. Sit at the bar and let the bartender steer.

  2. 02

    Dimitriou Cocktail Bar

    Cocktail Bar · Kolonaki

    A polished Kolonaki cocktail bar with a classic leaning list and a smart after work crowd. The kind of room that rewards an early evening drink.

  3. 03

    By The Glass

    Wine Bar · Kolonaki

    A wine bar near the Kolonaki and Syntagma edge pouring a wide by the glass selection across Greek and international labels. Staff guide the list with care.

  4. 04

    Galerie Skoufa

    Art Bar · Kolonaki

    An art gallery bar on Skoufa that pairs rotating exhibitions with cocktails. A quieter Kolonaki stop for a drink with something to look at.
