White Monkey
White Monkey is an Asian restaurant and bar in Chalandri spread across two levels. The upper floor houses the dining area with Japanese dishes like sushi and poke bowls, while the lower level features a cocktail bar specializing in rum with over 130 varieties from around the world.
The venue opened in 2014 and quickly became a favorite among locals and visitors alike. Since its opening, it has earned a reputation for quality cocktails and thoughtful design, and is now recognized as one of the best bars in Athens.
White Monkey takes its name from the tropical atmosphere that fills the space. The decoration with straw furniture, colorful fabrics, and warm lighting creates a feeling that differs sharply from the urban surroundings of Chalandri and invites visitors to imagine themselves elsewhere.
The venue opens in the late afternoon and stays open until late at night, making it a good choice for starting an evening or relaxing after a long day. It is easily reached by public transport and located near main roads, making it a convenient stop for anyone in the area.
The bar menu focuses on rum with over 130 varieties from different parts of the world, with bartenders creating special blends using fresh ingredients. This specialized collection allows guests to enjoy classics like Mai Tai and Piña Colada in a setting that has little in common with typical Athens establishments.
