Good spot to catch a game with mates. Pool table and darts keep it busy, not too fancy but does the job. Drinks are reasonably priced for the area.

Stopped by for lunch after the beach. Seafood salad was fresh, decent portion. Draft beer cold, exactly what you need. Service quick, no fuss. Sunbeds included with the order, which is fair for the price. Solid spot if you&#39;re nearby and don&#39;t want to overthink it.

The chicken souvlaki here is really good. Meat&#39;s fresh, juicy, not dry at all. Probably the best I&#39;ve had around this area. They do delivery too, which is handy. Portion was decent for the price. I&#39;d order again.

The red snapper was spot on, and their local wine list pairs beautifully with the kalitsounia. Staff knew their stuff when I asked for a recommendation. Solid spot in Marathi.

The owner cooks everything himself, which you can totally tell from the flavors. We sat by the fireplace and it was so cozy. Lamb in yogurt was the standout &mdash; tender, rich, unlike anything I&#39;ve had before. Wish I lived closer to come back for more.

Stopped by for a drink, sun was golden and the water looked clean. Plenty of parking, no hassle finding a spot. Sunbeds were there too, which was nice. Decent spot to kill an afternoon, nothing fancy but does the job. Maybe a bit crowded later on, but we went early and it was fine.

We came for dinner and got a window table, which I always appreciate. The lamb was cooked properly, tender and not dry. Meat skewers were good too, though I wish there were more vegetable sides on the plate. The free raki at the end was a nice touch. Prices felt fair for the quality.

Stopped by for a Kyoto-style iced drip and it was really good. Smooth, clean flavor, not something you find every day in Chania. Place is small, easy to miss, but worth it if you&#39;re wandering the old town. Barista knew what they were doing. Just wish they had more seating, but that&#39;s it.

Stopped by for a cold brew and a Freddo Espresso. Coffee was solid, no complaints there. Place gets busy later in the evening, seems like the spot to be. Staff were friendly enough. Sat outside for a bit, watched people walk by. Fine for a quick break, nothing fancy.

Good gelato spot in Chania. Tried the pistachio and it was fresh, not too sweet. Place is right by the water, easy to find. Service was friendly enough.

Came here twice while we were in town. Food was consistent both times, which is usually enough for me. The terrace view at sunset is the real draw&mdash;worth the walk up. Staff handled the busy rush without making us wait too long. They threw in some free ice cream at the end, nice touch. Solid spot.

Stopped by for a quick coffee and bite before the beach. Staff were friendly enough, prices fair for being this close to the water. Everything&rsquo;s available to go, which made it easy. Nothing fancy, but it did the job. 👍

The view over the harbor keeps me coming back. Moussaka was solid again, and that free chocolate ice cream at the end is a nice touch. Octopus was a bit chewy this time, but I&rsquo;ll still take a seat here any day.

The cocktails here are seriously good, some of the best I&rsquo;ve had in town. I came with a couple of friends on a random weekday and we ended up staying way longer than planned. The vibe is super chill, perfect for catching up. Service was quick and the staff were friendly. Only thing is it got a bit loud later on, but we didn&rsquo;t really mind.

The grilled octopus was spot on, tender and smoky. I paired it with a glass of their house Assyrtiko, which cut through the olive oil nicely. Service was attentive without hovering. Only hiccup was the bread basket took a while to arrive, but once the wine came, I didn&#39;t really care. Solid spot for a relaxed dinner.

Decent spot for a daytime visit. Loungers are comfy, pool&#39;s shallow, terrace right on the sea. Staff were quick and polite. Prices fair for what you get.

The saganaki was spot on, and the raki hit the spot. Pasta was a bit soft for me, and the shrimp plate was smallish. Still, staff were nice enough.
