Best Cocktail Bars in Greece

Athens leads the Greek cocktail scene. The best cocktail bars in Greece start with Line, No. 5 on The 50 Best Bars 2026, whose team even brews beer and bakes sourdough. The Bar in Front of the Bar began as a pop-up and has no indoor seating, so guests drink on the cobbles under a changing neon sign. Barro Negro, No. 40 on The 50 Best Bars 2026, takes its name from Oaxaca's black clay pottery and centers on agave spirits. In Thessaloniki's Ano Ladadika, Gorilla is No. 33 on Europe's 50 Best Bars 2026. Gorilla closes Monday and Tuesday and opens at 7 pm otherwise, 8 pm Fridays and Saturdays. These are the bars we would start with.
