Hi Kim 'n' Craig @ Basils Bar

 

We highly recommend this bar. Kim 'n' Craig are a smashing couple, from Doncaster, very friendly and always make you feel welcome. Just wish we had found it sooner cos Kim makes the best breakfast    and we felt duty bound to have one every day!!  

Now don't get me wrong…..we did have lots of Greek food while we were there……..but when we found out that they also made chip butties! With…' REAL POTATOES '.......yeah, none of your frozen rubbish……well….we had a few of them as well!!!!   Mmmmm  yummy!!

Craig is quite an entertaining bloke and we had a lot of laughs with him. You should give this bar a try, they have stuff going on like bingo, quizzes etc and Craig does make a mean cocktail (so he tells us)! but then.…so does Kim!  Chris's favourite bit was the frozen pint!

So try Basils when you are in Tsilivi and have a great holiday!

We love Basil's Bar
 
Kim and Craig are a friendly and lovely couple who always made us feel welcome in what became our "local" for our two week holiday in Tsilivi. And they do my fave Strongbow, hoorah!!
A really lovely bar wher you can have lots of fun. We'd especially recommend th quiz on a Saturday niight, which was a real laugh, especially with our team mates Spongebob and Basil the Cow!!
We're backon the 20th July and will be definatley popping in for a pint and a good catch up
Can't wait to see you both again, you are a fab couple and Basil's is a great bar to go to.
See you soon

Had a great time in Basils and would like to wish Kim & Craig all the best for the future. Kim & Craig are two friendly people, always willing to help, even offered us somewhere to store suitcases, get changed etc when we weren't sure if our hotel could accommodate us until our early morning flight departure (had to leave room at 12noon, flight pick-up not till 3am!).

Thanks and keep it up you guys!

Just been to Tsilivi for a week and found a great bar called Basils bar. Not been taken over by the new owners long but they are turning things around.Very good beer and snacks and nothing is too much trouble. If they cant answer your question they know somebody who can. All in all a well run and friendly bar well worth a visit

Margaret L  (02 June 2007)        10/10

Sara S  (18 May 2007)        10/10

Just been on holiday to Tsilivi and found a great bar near our accommodation, Basils Bar.  Its just been taken over this year by Craig and Kim from Doncaster.  They were so friendly and helpful and made some good cocktails. 
Hope to be going back again next year.
 
Cheers

Basil, Cath, Judith and Mick made us feel extremely welcome from our first visit (thanks guys) and thereafter if felt like one of the good old local pubs like you get back home.  Thanks to you all for providing us with a good few nights at Basils we feel as if we've made some really good mates.  Entertainment for me was great as it showed Big Brother and allowed me to keep up to date!  Hopefully see you all again next year!  Wendy and Chris (Wales) x x x.

Hi Bas & Co

Hope you are all OK!
Really enjoyed singing at your bar with Geoff's Karaoke.
I think he made me sing 'Leaving On A Jetplane' follwed by 'Memories' on the last night.
I remember that I had a sore throat and was given a shot of Metaxa to cure it! 
Thanks for making us feel welcome.
Luv Chrissie & Ronnie Ireson from Norwich xx

Basil and his staff gave a warm wlecome and the younger children (16 - 8) were able to use his pool table free!   This allowed us to relax within eyesight of them for an hour or so after an evening meal.   Large screen TV caters for Big Brother fans or Peter Kaye fans if that is your liking.   Good friendly venue.

Peter A  (02 April 2005)         

we have been going to greece for over 10 years and love every minute kath is a lovely lady and basil is a great laugh look forward to seeing you on the 12 may see you soon

Finbarr   (05 October 2004)         

Basil's bar was the highlight of our holiday. We had some memorable nights and other great ones that I can't remember at all. Basil and "the Dragon" were extremely friendly and on our last night they had made up goodie bags for the kids to have on the journey home. There were grat kiddies videos and the free pool table kept the kids busy, and Basil's never too busy to have a chat with you.

Chris K  (11 September 2004)         

Nice bar, good atmosphere and they serve a strong vodka and coke! Went here a few times for the films as they showed them a bit later than the other bars. They also supported the animal welfare group on the island - which can only be a good thing!

Ronnie V  (24 August 2004)         

We popped in Basils' for a couple after our meal one evening. Good atmosphere - watched Pater Kay and Big Bruv Finale. There's no escape even in Zante... ;o))

Didn't spot any babes, altho the girlfriend reckons some chick was checking me out... hmmmm dontcha just hate it when that happens? ;o))

Kim X  (28 July 2004)         

Basils B ar is great for kids because of the family atmosphere and the free pool table. We have just come back from Zante where kids came wiv us, they loved basils bar so good luck and keep up the good work. kim.R. x
.P.S. how many bars do you know that show Big Brother 4?!?

Liz W  (24 July 2004)

Rachel B  (18 July 2004)         

basils bar is the best in tsilivi basil is very nice and the atmosphere is calm and is so brilliant well done basil see you in september richard rachel and polly

Brian & Sally  (19 June 2004)         

What a brilliant family bar - somewhere you can take the children in the evening, without pressure to buy a meal but with free pool to be played, good quality Disney films on a giant TV and with the added incentive that it's right next to one of the best restaraunts in Tsilivi - The Apollo! and on the other side of the bar the ladies can get their nails done and bits waxed.
Well done to Basil and "the Dragon" - the best hosts in Tsilivi. We'll bring the three girls back next year.
