About
Set in main road in heraklion, the biggest city of beautiful island of crete, 'Reef' is a gorgeous dining lounge with designer cocktails, created by mixologist Foti Boutsaki. The style with sleek banquettes, much of maoni paint wood – classic and the most comfortable chair you’ll ever sit, make Reef the best lounge cocktail bar in city. Drinks meanwhile continue to evoke the classic age: a vast selection of perfectly poured favourites with twists listed under generic titles. ‘Flights Back in Time’ are Rat Pack favourites like the Zombie, the Negroni and the Aviation; Flights to Hawaii are tropical drinks made with fresh fruit and rum; and ofcourse the Shisha is the ritual of smoking with glass shisha full of fruits up and down with ice served and limes inside, it is something you will never forget. Fotis is a master of the classic cocktail art and his 'Reef' bar is one for purists with a sense of history.

We visited the bar several times and we were very excited of the high quality of the cocktails and the shisha. The location is beautiful and the service was perfect. You have to try it while staying in Amoudara. Everything is made with love and passion! We can highly recommend this bar.

We kept coming back! Chilled music, great cocktails and super cosy chairs to slouch in all night. The waiting staff were really cute!

Really nice experience. I’ve been With my wife and we had really nice cocktails with very high quality of drinks, clear flavors with really good prices and very good atmosphere. We also had a Shisa with really good quality of smokes. I recommend you the double apple flavor. Definitely I’ll go again.
