Stopped in twice while we were there. Goat with artichokes was solid, big portions too. They even brought out raki and dessert on the house &mdash; went well with the meal.

The grilled octopus was the standout. Tender, smoky, just the right amount of char. Kids got free ice cream after, which was a nice touch. Prosecco at &euro;20 is fair for the area. Everything else was fresh but the octopus is what I&#39;d come back for.

Stopped by for a Cretan breakfast&mdash;so filling. Peaceful spot, watching the boats from the table. Exactly what I needed.

Came here four days in a row, oops 😅 The family that runs it is super friendly and the beach never felt packed. You just order drinks and snacks straight to your sunbed, so we basically didn&#39;t move all day. Honestly exactly what we needed for a lazy beach day.

The waffles were crispy and fresh, made right in front of you. You can tell they put care into the batter. Nice little spot.

Nice spot right on the beach&mdash;clean, quiet, and the sunbeds are free if you grab a drink. Cocktails were fair priced and the service was friendly. Good enough for a lazy afternoon.

Went up to the rooftop for a drink last week. That view at sunset is something else, really. Strawberry daiquiri was solid and didn&#39;t break the bank. Cocktails are priced fair for what you get. Place gets a bit busy later on, but if you grab a spot early it&#39;s fine. Good spot to unwind after work.

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.

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.

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.
