The bar is still there, though the name has changed. Neither of us can remember what it's called, now! Think it starts with an "A"!
Still good, though and much more comfortable than previously.
Have a good holiday!

It is now run by and english (or maybe welsh) girl called Leah. Im sorry to report that the kiddies ball pit / play area is not there anymore :( I think the previous owners took it away earlier in the season.

I didn't see a pinball machine the few times that we visited. Drinks were always brought to the table (outside) though so I didn't really venture inside.

didnt there used to be an Acabar the other end of the village sometime ... passed the olive press sort of way ???

Yes - I spoke to the girl who seems to run ACABAR - a couple of years ago it was operating in Pandora's just before the Golden Beach Hotel.
- As I said above - - - it used to be run in the old Pandora's Music Bar - which was originally opened and run by Stefanos and Athina.
They then opened the Condor and rented out the Pandora for a year to a guy who called himself "Moose", who just didn't do well there.
The Condor is a much bigger (but similar) version of Pandora's.
The Condor, which originally also had the back section (game machines and pool), closed off and run as a dedicated night-club.
This was sound-proofed with a separate DJ - Music was typical "clubby stuff" targeting the younger crowd. It ran for quite a few years,
until Stefanos closed it and opened up the area to extend Condor.
Acabar is a cross between Bar 38 as it was and a mini Condor.

I have seen many storms there over the years, but usually it's been at night - not often during the day.
