If you have already visited Athens you have probably visited Tiki bar. If not, put it on your to do list next time. Tiki is an exotica bar - restaurant with '60s and '50s references. It's the only bar in Athens that is self-proclaimed as lounge-punk and that says a lot.
Tiki has a wide range of choices to drink and cocktails are among the best in town without a doubt. Try a Green Apple which is one of my favourites, or cocktails with handmade chilli syrup that you will not find elsewhere. Although it is a bar, Panagiotis makes amazing burgers with handmade ingredients and sauce from a secret recipe. The music can be jazz, funky soul, Latin, classical French or Italian pieces, huge disco moments or just pure pop. Just be in the mood to party and under no circumstances will you be bored for a moment.
Don't miss a visit to Tiki. The spot where the tourists & natives are gathered to unify their musical tastes & dancing moves.
