| Last reviewed: Jun 2026 Hidden in the citrus-shaded courtyard of a 19th-century mansion once home to Venetian cavalry and later the merchant Ali Vafi, this is one of the old town's best cocktail spots, with a serious wine programme (Sella Vineria) and Cretan-international small plates. Drinks arrive with homemade olive pesto and bread. From morning coffee to late cocktails.
