3 Best Nightlife in Attica and Delphi, Greece

Balux Cafe—The House Project

Fodor's choice

This creative bar-café-restaurant comes in the style of an open-plan house, complete with playroom and pool area. It's the ultimate "all things to everyone" stop-by, and despite the pompous name and concept-pushing, it's great fun—albeit not cheap. By day, board games and pool tables are wheeled out in its cozy womb of a café, with a contemporary Greek menu on hand. A playground area takes care of the kids, while entrance to the beach has a fee (€8), with a private section (€12) for those who want more space to swim. Then, once the sun sets, the café becomes the perfect spot to slowly sip a cocktail on the beachfront as the evening gives way to live music (usually on Thursday) or local DJs. It's open year-round.

Pere-Ubu

Kiprou Street is a gauntlet of all-day café-bars these days, each morphing seamlessly from post-shopping brunch and espressos to full-on restaurant, to DJs and cocktails as the light fades. Pere-Ubu is one of the more electric; its industrial style manages to be hip without being full-on obnoxious. Excellent burgers accompany a good selection of cocktails as you segue into the evening. It's one of the busier spots in town, so book a table and be patient—service is pretty slow.

Su Casa

Another that comfortable fits into the café-restaurant-bar mold is Su Casa, on the corner of Kiprou and Plateia Nymfon. The main lure is its rather nicely shaded garden terrace, which offers a welcome break from the sun. But as the night winds on, the cocktail hour approaches and it comes into its own, with an array of signature drinks to accompany a vast list of speciality rums, gins, and vodkas.
