Signature Cocktails HeraklionLooking for the best cocktail bar in Heraklion? Xalavro Open Bar Restaurant is located in the heart of Heraklion, offering signature cocktails, fusion cuisine, sushi and a unique dining experience.

Xalavro Open Bar emerged from the ruins of an old house in the heart of the old town of Heraklion. Where everyone saw ruins, others saw a vibrant all-day meeting point where exceptional cocktails, premium food and unforgettable moments could be created.
