Title: Athens Bar.
Post by: WINKIE on July 05, 2020, 08:09:27 PM: According to social media, apparently the above will not be opening this year due to distancing restrictions,etc, so sad for its many many patrons.

We have delayed our booking to next year but we were still hoping to maybe do a quick week but I dont think we will now as much as I love it I think it will be deserted this year. I just hope all our friends there are OK and can survive financially to open next year for a 'normal' season.

From what im hearing plenty others going to open. Arillas is more or less in full swing and tavernas doing decent trade
