Just spent a week in Heraklion and when we were returning to our hotel in the evening we would pop into this wine bar/restaurant for a few drinks. For being strangers my wife and I were made most welcome and at the end of our trip we left feeling like friends. The staff were second to none and couldn’t do enough for us, in fact we were given on the house drinks on several occasions as well as nibbles and cheese on our table. The owner of the restaurant gave my wife a bottle of wine on our last evening which was very kind of him to do. If you are visiting Heraklion I would recommend that you visit this restaurant. Again many thanks to all the people at this restaurant who made our stay...
Read moreI had a wonderful experience at Manjar Wine Bar. I arrived after the kitchen had closed, but I mentioned I wanted to try a Cretan salad—even though it wasn’t on the menu, a lovely lady named Dimitria (forgive me if I got the name slightly wrong) kindly offered to make it for me. The salad was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and truly memorable.
She also guided me in choosing the perfect wine and took the time to tell me about Greek wines in general. Her genuine warmth and knowledge made the visit extra special. Exceptional service and a great place to enjoy local wines. Highly...
Read moreProbably the best wine bar in Heraklion, service is spot-on, they give detailed explanation about the local wines from Crete and Greece. All information about the production method, grape varieties, aging, and taste is explained by a super knowledgeable staff. Prices are more than fair, we were blown away by the quality of the wines and super service of the staff. This winebar serves bites and food that are presented in a boutique-style to complement the wines. Also cocktails and other drinks are available. Highly recommended, a must visit for every wine lover! Thank you...
