Vogatsikou 3

Thessaloniki


Locals consider this darkly stylish cocktail bar to be the best in town. If you like your drinks fancy and shaken, you'll enjoy poring over a long menu of classic and inventive cocktails. Whisky drinkers are very well catered to as well, and the nonsmoking policy comes as a great relief to many.
