If you're looking for a great night out with friends, Juan Rodriguez Bar is a must.
While Athens has a wide variety of themed bars to check out, Juan Rodriguez is unique in its own right.

The cocktails, once, they were the stars of the show, but lately, they've lost some of their shimmer. The last visit left a taste of disappointment.
In spite of this hiccup, Juan Rodriguez Bar retains its charm. The service is efficient. The atmosphere, always buzzing with energy, offers a slice of fun that's hard to resist. In essence, Juan Rodriguez Bar is a recommendation - a spot of light, warmth, and style in a city that's...
