We visited Sea View Cafe Bar and it quickly became one of the highlights of our trip! The food was absolutely delicious – fresh ingredients, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. But what truly stood out were the cocktails – simply next level! Creative, perfectly balanced, and served with real attention to detail. You can tell there’s both passion and skill behind the bar. And the staff… just the kindest, most welcoming people you could hope to meet. Always friendly, smiling, and ready to help with a recommendation or just a nice chat. All in all, we couldn’t recommend this place more. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Really great little beach tavern. You can take drinks and food away to sit with them on your sunbeds and will be given a little cardboard drinks carrier. Free water seems to come with all drink or food orders. The drinks are delightfully presented and the prices very reasonable. Perfect views of the sea. The staff are so friendly and a real delight! Got free fruit and little drinks after meal.

Drinks with a view and friendly service! What more could you ask for? We could have sat here all day taking in the view and cold drinks but unfortunately we were only here for a short time so we had places to go and things to do. The brothers who own the place truly make you feel at home. They really have something special!

Staying in seaside resort and spa and once the weather finally picked up we thought we head down to the beach when we came across this lovely place. Fantastic food and drinks at good prices and very friendly and attentive waiters. We loved the complimentary fruit boat! We will be back again!

This place is amazing! The view of the sea is just stunning and makes the whole atmosphere super special. The staff were really friendly and helpful, and the service was quick. The food was delicious, fresh, and the portions were huge – you definitely won’t leave hungry! The restaurant itself is really nice and cozy, perfect for enjoying a meal while watching the sea. Honestly, it’s one of the best places I’ve been to in Crete – great food, great people, and an incredible view. Highly recommend!
