MuratApril 16, 2016Great location, easy to access. Great drinks, affordable prices, very cosy and extremely tempting. Owerwhelmingly ruch wine menu with a great variety of hard liquor. Try their own liquirs, awesome!
Maroula MavrogiannopoulouNovember 1, 2014The atmosphere is great due to the multicoloured wall of bottles and the good choices in music. The wine list is very good but a bit on the expensive side when you order by the glass. Worth the visit!
BerrakOctober 7, 2015Brettos is the cutest little bar in plaka area, one of the best in athens with their homemade ouzo, brandy and liquors 🍹 try 'sea breeze'!
Georgia FitzGeraldNovember 12, 2016Best drink spot in the heart of Athens. Must try coctail the" Brettos Alexander" with hazelnut liquor,bourbon 7* and irish cream 😄😄.
- Sinem Q.July 23, 2018Best place to try ouzo if you are a first timer in Greece. Absolute gorgeous ouzo coctails are must try, around 8-10€. Not loud, smoking free.
ElifJuly 20, 2017Very tasty cocktails and hell outta ambience. Small space is very crowded late night. 2 bar tenders were totally pulling it off. Try anything, it's all good. Prices: 5-10€
- George ErotidisNovember 11, 2018t may be a bit touristy, but nowhere else will you find such a wide selection of Greek liqueurs and spirits with any flavor that you can imagine (all fruits and nuts) than in this colorful, retro bar!
Vincent GhyssensNovember 21, 2018Lured in by the lights, trapped by the Ouzo, we caved in and bought a bottle of Rakomelo which I can only highly recommend
A KOctober 17, 2014different & stylish, within a very touristic area. ask for recommendations they know what they're talking about. if you like fumé sauvignon blanc, you won't regret the one brettos serves.
Eutuxia ◽September 6, 2014One of the most beautiful places in Athens! The decoration is amazing and the prices are very normal. You can find a big variety of wines and liqueurs. TRY "parfait d'amour" !- George ErotidisNovember 11, 2018It may be a bit touristy, but nowhere else will you find such a wide selection of Greek liqueurs and spirits with any flavor imaginable (all fruits and nuts) than in this colorful, retro bar!
- L. Q.September 27, 2016Do not think twice: go for the 5 best local wine degustation. Red or white - extremely worth it.
Dilhan AltugMarch 28, 2018Masticha , hazelnut, green apple , coffee liqueurs 👍🏼 Satyr’s nectar & sea breeze cocktails were perfect! Christos was very friendly!
Janice GalliJuly 3, 2015A small distillery in the heart of the Plaka. I would recommend the Mastika, a national aperitif made from the gum of a tree; Ouzo-like, but sweeter, with woody/herbaceous undertones
Georgios GatosDecember 8, 2015A must stop for a drink on a 100+ year old traditional distillery. They also offer wine and other spirits takeaway- The Taste SheriffJanuary 24, 2016Dear tourists, do not pass on this place. You will love everything and you'll leave drunk. Allow 2 hours at least to try many of the different liquor varieties.
Canan CordeliaDecember 31, 2018As soon as we entered in we faced to that unpolite waiter. We are planning to sit and he suddenly take the chair from our side and pushed me with his shoulder and did not careNot planning to comeagain
Pantelis PepperMay 12, 2016A very lively place with amazing decoration! A wide variety of coctails based on its own liquors. Definetely worth visiting, at least for a fast drink!- Katerina KomninouJanuary 12, 2016Don't miss this amazing liqueur bar!!! All these liqueur bottles create a fantastic colorful atmosphere! (They also serve wine, beer and cigars) Smoking is allowed :-(
Renee TSeptember 3, 2014Was the oldest distillery in Athens. Old barrels full of spirits and the colored bottles that line the walls up to the ceiling. It has a tiny bar where you can get drinks by the glass
ChaseJune 11, 2016Great cocktails and service. Because of the location in the center of Plaka, can be a bit touristy. Good prices
Murat KomşucuJune 14, 2016Mastika is the best one. All that home made liqueurs should be tried. 👍 Barmaid was so kind and cute.
Yiota PapJanuary 25, 2015Hidden gem in Athens near Plaka. They have so many different liqueurs and they are so tasty. Really difficult to order just one :)
Gorkem OzMay 1, 2016They have their own produce of liquors. I tried rakomelo and limoncello, which were really good. Difficult to find seating though.
Johnny KoutiolasJanuary 26, 2014Good variety of wines. Very nice place with excellent decoration. Went on a Saturday night, place was packed. Lots of tourists. Great atmosphere.
John SpinoulasSeptember 2, 2014huge wine list, great coctails, excellent service, cool music but still can speak, can get very crowded but it is worth it!
Tasos GeoJanuary 13, 2015Amazing place. Must visit. Huge variety of wines and spirits. Red card for smoking inside.
Francesca KarkaziSeptember 2, 2013Try the malvasia bava (rose wine with intense flavour of rose and strawberries)! If you are fans of sparkling wines you will love it!
Vle.G.December 22, 2016Very good for predrinks, very good location and friendly service. Try the own made ouzos with different grading.
The best place to taste homemade liqueurs. The atmosphere with the bottles is unique. Try the parfait da mour liqueur.
John HellerJune 25, 2018Great place with good atmosphere and unique liquor flavors I have never even thought of.
BANU U.June 5, 2019Many coctail alternatives with authentic ambiance in heart of Plaka. Daquiri is recommended.
Sandy RoseSeptember 22, 2017Literally the best place to be and try all these different liquers! Carefully though because you will get drunk!
Manolis VlachakisJanuary 30, 2015Very Good and different place but the service isnt its strong point. If its full you have to wait. Realy lovely liquers though!
Josef DunneOctober 9, 2011Right in the heart of the tourist trail in Athens, can get very very crowded. But still a unique bar to visit while you are in Athens.
Romanos LouvrosMay 4, 2015One of the oldest ones. Used to be a cellar now it hasuch more! Great place with very nice atmosphere!
Katie KtAugust 27, 2017Great place and drinks! Lovely decor ! But why do people smoke inside? It should be non smoking! 🚭
Akshay PatilJune 12, 2015Come here to drink their excellent variants of local liquors and make friends with other high spirited ex-pats.
Gökçe ErsoyAugust 19, 2016Colorful cute little place with perfect liqueurs! Get shots from the ones you want and try them all- Constantin WMarch 25, 2023White wine tasting and interesting spirits! Great Service, also in a group!
