Bankery — Restaurant in Municipality of Rethymnon

My American family of four that included an 11 and 13 year old was craving a big breakfast. We had been hanging out in Old Town every day and hadn't seen anything that would fit the bill. Then we saw photos on Trip Advisor and decided to give The Bankery a try. No, it's not The Bakery. It's Bankery because it used to be a bank, and still has the huge vaulted door downstairs!) It took awhile to get noticed by the wait staff once seated, but then they were so nice and so attentive! The kids had a lovely plate of eggs and bacon, and my husband and I shared the Variety Breakfast Platter for two. It was fabulous! A ton of food with a great selection of Cretan favorites and traditional American/ British choices. It was way too much for two so the kids shared and we brought the rest back to our villa. In addition, I had been craving some "American" style drip or filtered coffee. Couldn't find it anywhere. Here at Bankery I finally found it. Even better, it came in a great big glass mug that I could add all the creamer I wanted. I cried with delight I was so happy. I even ordered a second, it was so good. The manager and wait staff were very friendly and just couldn't do enough for us. We appreciated the free refills of cold clean bottled water as it was a hot day outside. In addition, the setting and decor was really hip and happening with good music. It would be a nice trendy bar if it were in Chicago. Yet there were lots of children present. The only thing that deterred from our enjoyment was that our table was surrounded by heavy smokers, but A) that is the culture, B) as Americans we're just not exposed to that anymore so it takes getting used to, and C) we were seated outside so that helped to dissipate the smoke. Lastly, the bill was incredibly reasonable for all the freshly squeezed juices and food that was ordered. All in all we had a great visit and we are so glad we...

A really nice place in the center of Rethymno opposite of municipal garden. Coffee is very nice served and tasty and they serve very tasty sweets as well.

Prices are very normal and you can enjoy your meal or breakfast anytime , it's open from early in the morning untill late at night.

Next to it there is a really big parking , it's the municipal parking which seems to be the cheapest paid one in the area of Rethymno.

At 100 meters is the gate of the old town that you can enjoy your work there among the hundreds of local shops and stores.

Since it's the center of the town you can have a walk around and see the town of Rethymno.

I am going there mostly at the morning time to get a take away coffee but you can also visit it at the night time to enjoy your...

Unser Brunch-Erlebnis bei Bankery war wahrlich bemerkenswert und verdient eine ausführliche Bewertung. Schon beim Betreten des Restaurants fiel uns die einladende und freundliche Einrichtung auf, die eine entspannte Atmosphäre schaffte. Das Interieur und die Gestaltung trugen maßgeblich dazu bei, dass wir uns von Anfang an wohl fühlten.

Unsere Bestellungen, eine Bowl und ein Baguette mit Chicken, übertrafen unsere Erwartungen. Die Gerichte waren nicht nur äußerst frisch zubereitet, sondern auch geschmacklich herausragend. Die Aromen und die Präsentation zeugten von einer hohen kulinarischen Qualität, die uns begeisterte.

Doch das wahre Highlight unseres Besuchs war zweifellos die Bedienung. Das Personal bei Bankery zeichnete sich nicht nur durch seine Freundlichkeit aus, sondern auch durch eine bemerkenswerte Aufmerksamkeit und einen ausgezeichneten Service.
