Title: preferred bar
Post by: kvarnell on February 13, 2013, 01:06:14 PM
I am a Malibu girl through and through, however we go into all the others as well, but the Malibu suits our vibe, where does everyone settle at the end of the night?. I love a few beers in the Marina at lunch and maybe few aperitifs in the Amourada, also of course both bars at the top of the donkey bar are great.  My heart belongs in the Malibu..........

For us, it has to be the `Nut.  Have been in the Malibu a couple of times, though.
          Kaloudis bar is also great - Billy the kid is great fun.
 Not forgetting The Rainbow, of courese.

Tria and the Nut for me !  Only went in Malibu once (on my own) and I just couldn't "settle" in there for some reason ......

Malibu to get out of the heat for an hour at lunchtime.Mirage after a lovely meal with Nikos and Angela and the boys in the evening.Back to the Malibu for a chat and a few drinks with George and Kinga then a nightcap with Spiros at the Akti where we are staying.           Did not realise we drank so much until I wrote it down.Still it is holiday time LOL.

We are nutters through and through!

When not Nutting we can be found in Ammos, Akti, Horizon and Akrotiri....lol...well as Ron and Sue said..."...it is  holidaytime!" :-)

I forgot The Atki and Mathraki with Nikos and of course Kaloudis with Billy and his lovely family, oh and a crafty ice cold beer at the Marinaki... Oh My God I think I could be very drunk soon, just remembered the best place to drink, a few drinks from Alex supermarket sat on the beach watching the sea, sun and people....

A nice meal out, a stroll, may pop into some establishment, then return to the Rainbow.
Most people there return for a night cap so its good to have a chat.
Dont do the Bars too often, if we do it's the Nut.

Must say AKROTIRI is FABULOUS for the Sunsets or ANEMOS in Afionas,or the HORIZON. Grrrrrrr now look what you started.

Post by: Geoff on February 13, 2013, 04:13:39 PM
Akrotiri is a must for the sunsets, but then I've enjoyed plenty of them from the upper deck at the Horizon too.
Marina Pool Bar is great for a late afternoon / early evening drink with Sharon.
But, since the original question was about where we settle at the end of the night then for me it has to be the Nut and then a final nightcap with Spiros at the Akti.

We are "Nutters" too. But when we leave before the small hours, we usually end the night back at base, ie Poppy's Bar at Bardis. Love them all in their different ways.

The Rainbow is opposite the Captains Restaurant and next to Hotel Marvel.

Post by: Jo Wissett on February 14, 2013, 12:27:11 AM
Has to be the Coconut for us! That's where we end our nights most of the time. We tend to spread our luurrve throughout the days, enjoying lovely chilled lunchtime wine at many taverna's, then obviously enjoy copious amounts at our restaurant of choice. We love having a nice chilled drink at the Akti then meander on down to Perry and Kosta for 'brown eyed girl' lol. Looking forward to re-visiting Whispers this year if it is still up and running. I have to say though that the Marinaki early evening swing takes a lot of beating!!

I am a total Nut girl but then again I don't mind drinking anywhere and everywhere in Arillas :)
Title: Re: preferred bar
Post by: Truth on February 14, 2013, 01:31:42 PM
My parents let my daughter sleep over night with them this year so I went out on my own for a bit of a tour , including a couple of Mythos on the bench like a Saddo on my own ! lol .  I ended up having a few beers in The Nut with a couple who were also staying at Tria. Fair play the guy behind the bar (the owner I presume???) gave us all a lift back as they had their daughter with them and she fell asleep in there.
I am sure he was married to one of the Tria Adelphia family , or did I dream this???
Anyway , this is another reason The Nut is my fave drinking hole, although I am sure there are plenty more people in Arillas that would have done the same

Thats the way of the people in Arillas Karl.
Lost count of the number of times we have been given or offered a lift by the locals. but its not only in Arillas, we have been given lifts from San Stefanos on several occasions.

Hi John,
I must admit the best one we had was in Thassos. We were staying in Skala Potomias and went to the next resort of Golden Beach for a few "cold ones" with a couple that we met out there, this was all pre kids.
We missed the last bus back and then we were too late for a taxi so we started walking and an open back truck drove past us going in the opposite direction.
He turned the truck around , pulled over , ushered two into the cab (he couldn't speak ANY English at all) and pointed to the back of the truck for the other two. We stood up all the way home in the back of it leaning on the roof of the cab...... class !
He would not take a penny off us when he got us back either and started to take offence when we insisted he have some money.
Only in Greece eh............................

Sharon's Pool Bar to start the evening off, have a drink and a laugh with Sharon and whoever else is there, while we decide where we're going to eat, then usually to the Akti to finish, if we get a second wind on the way home we'll nip into the Coconut.

Never went in Sharons at all but it looked nice , maybe pop in there in May. I did speak to her while we were watching a Chelsea game in The Nut one afternoon and she seemed a nice lady.
I don't think she was too struck on a West Brom fan that was in there trying to wind her up that Chelsea winning the Champions League last year was PURELY down to luck !  lol
Title: Re: preferred bar
Post by: sharonF on February 15, 2013, 01:36:19 PM
She is great Truth, a good laugh, we usually hang out there during the day round the pool, then when we've been and showered and got ready to go out for the evening we go back for a drink there before our evening meal.  Go and have a drink with Sharon, you will get just as friendly a welcome as anywhere in Arillas.

She didn't take him as a prisoner John , oh no, she gave him what for ! I must admit me and my Dad were a bit embarrassed for him, not just because he was a West Brom fan either . lol
