Rainbird
Fodor's choice
Coffee and drinks are served all day, but the views from the romantic terrace make this spot especially popular around sunset.
The Secret Garden
Fodor's choice
This café-bar hideaway along the road from Chorio to Pedi Bay is popular among locals. It was built by hand by local owners Katja and Michael, and feels every bit the leafy escape its name suggests. The menu is tasty, traditional fare, while Friday night sees live blue bands take over. It's a true hidden delight.

Captain's House Bar
This fine example of an old Lindos mariner's home, replete with intricate hohlaki pebble floor, has been turned into one of the most atmospheric bars in town. Owner Savvas is a lively soul and mixes a decent cocktail.
H2O
This loungey seaside club on the beachfront has a small, sleek interior as well as outdoor seating, and excellent meals are served in the adjoining restaurant of the same name.
Macao
A haven for grown-up lounge lizards, Macao is all about dark, moody lighting, a romantic terrace, mellow music, and worldly cocktails.
Mozaik
Old Town
In summer, this slick open-air cocktail bar and terrace is the centerpiece of hip Arionos Square, where its DJs top the pecking order and decent sushi has been added to a light menu.
Park
This cute stone bar in the corner of the park on Amerikis and Psaron makes for the perfect jazz-fueled chill-out spot after dark. Laid-back music and a complete absence of noisy tourists makes it a rare gem. If you get hungry there's a good mezedes restaurant (Giameze) across the street.
The Last Butler
New Town
A likeable cocktail bar-cum-speakeasy that spills out onto the New Town food street of Amarantou. It's a great place to perch, all gentleman's-club-style dark woods, Victorian wallpaper, and a dizzying array of well-mixed drinks. An atmospheric spot for a nightcap.
Yachta
A rather stylish bar-eatery from the people behind the equally excellent Pantelis seafood restaurant on the haborfront. The slightly more removed location (just a two-minute walk from its sibling) serves it well, and food is delivered with equal aplomb. But this is as much a nightspot as a diner, and a fine cocktail list does the late-evening harbor views more than justice.
Zero
The best selection of craft beers on the island, including plenty of Greek labels, makes this ruffled-looking bar with live DJs and a quiet side-street garden worth looking up.
