Hi guys, i'll keep your sofa reserved for you haha. Places closed are Mustang but opened as something else now, Safari, Castellos, Kenny's Bar, Sugar Reef closed at moment but is opening, Panorama and i think thats it, for now. So not that bad but we'll have to see how the season goes on.

Have used kevs bar twice a year since he moved to kalamki i am an early drinker so we arrive each night as kev is setting up. If you have never used the bar you should give it a go you will find kev to be a fine host and always very helpful .If you read this kev we will be a bit later this year normally early june but due to family wedding wont see you until 2nd july should be on the step as you open.If you update your blog in near future can you put soom info on whats closed and changed ect Give our regards to dereck and veronica see you soon keep busy.

Well i'm here, i'm sorted, i'm open and so far its been brilliant, lovely in the days, not to cold at nights and business better than i'd planned for , so happy days, so far that is LOL

You can never keep a good man down LOL From what i've been reading and hearing rumours and gossip and already going around about my bar.

Hi Kev

 hi kev see you 7th may returning for another great holiday in kalamaki. this is my 12th year. see you soon byeeeee

I have 6 weeks to get through hope it flys by.Cu in 6 weeks.

Hello my lovely customers, 2 weeks and i'll be out there maybe 3 weeks as think first week may be to quet this year,

After reading all the great comments we will go to Oceanic when we come over in June.Been so many times to Kalamaki but have a habit of staying in the same bars.

Thank you for the lovely comments your very kind all of you, to be honest i'm just being me, its not a act, if you like me thats cool and if you don't thats also fine but i'll continue to be me and run my bar the way it is with the same style, music and serving the real deal drinks not cheap makes at the lowest price i can, there's no need to be greedy or to cheat my customers. hope to see alot of you this season or in the seasons to come. Hope your winter has been kind to you and roll on May with the sun, sea and screaming orgasms (cocktails they are LOL).

KEV is awesome, best bar host you could ever wish for...took my time in writing this but atleast im doing it. He'll make any drink you ask for even make something up for you if you wish, i forgot to name mine before i left though, will just have to go back again. What a pity. He also has a great taste in music, just something completely different from everywhere else that you can go to drink, and the drinks are better too. 

Stayed at the Cavo D'Oro in June for 2 weeks and didn't really visit Kev's bar until 5 days in or so, wished I had've earlier. Kev is a great host, beer is the cheapest in Kalamaki and a cracking pint. My girlfriend Joanne loved the Phillips tea lightsand we bought them from Amazon as soon as we got back.

The bar is really nice, nothing flash just comfortable seating and good music in the background and Kev running round ensuring everyone is happy. Top marks to a top bloke, the next time I'm back I'm heading straight there.

  Hi kev, we stayed in the cava do oar in Aug 05 myself ( karen) les an daughter steph. ( from Liverpool) we met up with a couple from london Dawn, kirk, reanne and joe from the same hotel. we where always in your bar  after we had a meal. we had some great nights drinkin your fantastic cocktails and eatin your vodka jelly sweets . We enjoyed Zante so much that we are comin back again on the 10th August 09 an stayin in the same hotel, this time we are bringin stehps friend becky with us (two weeks again) lookin forward to seein you again and drinkin in the best bar in Zante. karen les and steph.

Hi folks thanks for all your lovely comments and hope to see you all next season.

An excellent chilled out bar with an extremely friendly, laid back atmosphere & very good drinks.

Oceanic is on our must visit list every time we go to Zante (& we always stay in Argassi )

Kev is a brilliant host who can't do enough for his customers (who soon become friends) & his list of cocktails is very impressive, & they taste very good too with the real ingredients. If there's anything you want that he hasn't got he will nip out for it & nothing is too much trouble.

Definitely a place you must try once & you'll be back. I know we will when we're back in Argassi next May, it'll keep the taxis busy

PS We couldn't imagine walking or driving past without calling in

We came in here most nights and met with old friends and made new ones. The drinks as always were all the real deal and very generous in their proportions. Thanks again for making us so welcome and looking after us and especially for letting Daniel use the plug for his DVD. We can't wait to get back next year and hope the weather will be kinder in May.I have posted lots of pics on the Facebook site as below.

Another great holiday in Zakynthos, and several great evenings in Oceanic. The cocktails are fab, never had a better "Orgasm", thanks Kev  

As usual, Andrews G+T's hit the spot, so much so that the post drinking snores could probably be heard at the airport, over the sound of the jet engines  

A lovely place to chill, pre or post dinner, we will be back 3 times next year for more relaxation on one of those sofas. Have a good winter Kev

With thanks to all my repeat offenders, sorry customers and the loads of new ones this season has kicked ass and still with a month to go. Never had a customer come in who didn't come back again, never had a complaint to myself and if someone did have one they should have told me as i'm more than happy to listen as that way the problem can be corrected. only had about 3 quiet weeks throughout the first 5 months all the rest have near enough been packed out. why am i telling you this? Because if it wasn't for you my customers my bar wouldn't be what it is, i can only serve the drinks but you keep the bar going so a big thank you to you all, your all great.

Hi Kev home again wishing we were still in kalamaki will be back in july 2009cant come soon enough.  For any one who has not been in this bar give it a go good host in kev and all his customers seem to get on well together even if they have never met before. Great place wife thought cocktails where best in resort see you mate

 Hi Kevin

We loved your wee bar as it ticked all our boxesgood atmosphere lovely cocktailsfairly good choice of music[jokin]and no rip off prices.[had to add that bit in seeing as we are scots, may as well live up to our reputation!]

We have only been home two days and it seems like yonks ago we were enjoying the craic with everyone in your bar

Hey Kev

was good to see you again and great to just relax in your bar again

kayley loved the ice cubes so much the first thing she did on getting back was put them in freezer

thanks for everything and see you again next year

HI KEV...GOT MY ZIMMER FRAME??  WILL BE THERE VERY SOON..AND TOLD PAUL NOT TO WEAR LEOPARD PRINT HOPE TO SPEND A BIT LONGER AT OCEANIC THIS TIME..AS STAYING IN KALAMAKI..AND HOPEFULLY NONE OF US WILL BE  UNWELL THIS TIME!! HOWEVER WILL HAVE TO TREK UP FROM THE KALAMAKI BEACH HOTEL OF AN EVENING...BETTER MAKE IT A WHEELCHAIR INSTEAD OF THE ZIMMER ONLY KIDDING

Can't wait to chill in Oceanic when we go back in August

Well just BRILLIANT

That's what we like about the place & if silly children who comment on places they don't visit stay away then that makes Oceanic even better  

well we do really enjoy visting your bar kev as you know. and wot diff does it make wot the age group are. everyone seams too have a great time in your bar and thats all that matter's. and your bar was always packed every nite which cant be said about any other bar down the strip neare you hun. anyway see you in sept we coming back the 25th of sept and we deffo be in again.

Hi Kev!

Loved the comment from "Norma" about us OAPs who drink in your bar .  Its was always a pleasure to rest our ancient arthritic joints on your comfy sofas, especially for our daughter Laura who's knocking on a bit now she's nearly 13!

Flipping Heck Kev,

Im an OAP. Does that mean I can start drawing my pension 26 years early.  Right then, I'm moving to Kalamaki next week.

But seriously mate, if I was a CHAV I wouldn't want to go in to your bar either. No karaoke or pub quizzes. Maybe they'd feel more comfortable in Laganas.

I look forward to next year when my family and I (including our 4 year old daughter) can sit back and chill in your bar.

lol bar for OAP'Sthat's  a new claim to fame Kev  Well I don't recall any old people in there (except Lesley of course ) and even if that was the case everyone seemed to be very happy and as long as the customers are happy so are you is my guess 

OMG, how RUDE

I can assure you that neither my husband or myself are OAP's, and even if we were I would find your comment offensive  (BTW how old are you ? )

Maybe you didn't pop in cos there wasn't room, that's usually the case at the most popular bar in Kalamaki

Look forward to more nights in Oceanic in September, but then again, us OAP's have the time to holiday more than once a year  

Glad to see you had a great time in oceanic folks and still going strong.

    

hiya kev.

   This was the meeting place for the OAP's.  We gave it a miss.

Another few evenings spent here, a lovely place for pre or post dinner drinkies, thanks Kev. Not just sprinting from the bar now though eh Kev? Disapppearing on his bike now a speciallity of the night  Will see you in September, may your success continue, oh and your "meals on wheels" deliveries

Hiya.......its us again!! We love this bar - its beginning to feel like our second home. New, softer sofas this time which makes it even more difficult to leave - it's so chilled out and a perfect way to wind down at the end of the day...... Still the best, strongest cocktails in Kalamaki, proper stuff used.  Great to see you again Kev and glad to see your bar is still going well - not surprising really with the great atmosphere, music and of course host (sprinter of the year award, lol), plus, we always meet nice people in here and have a giggle.

Message from Lydia...........have you got the pink lights set up yet? lol . She's got the sparkly things you gave her in a pot in her room - (very her !!)   Well, we can't wait to come back, definitely be there for your birthday, probably before........you know how we just 'turn up' .  Thanks again for everything Kev, hope it all keeps going well, see u soon.........Marie & Lydia x x

Just back from Kalamaki Kev doing a grand job, unfortunately I could'nt enjoy his hospitality every night.

I had better sell some cars before I  get out to zante based on kevs prices!! Only joking !!

Great bar Chilled atmosphere and just what you need on your holidays!! and cheap!!

Went in Oceanic last week & was so impressed we travelled over from Argassi 3 times to see Kev. The service is brilliant & the atmosphere very nice, no tv or loud music etc just a nice relaxing place with what must be the most comfortable seats in any bar on the island. Very good & definitely worth a try, you'll want to go back. We will when we go back later in the year  

hi kev m8 i am over 27th july mucker ok cant wait  looks i will be stayin in kalamaki or laganas as theres no bugger i no in argassi any more lol and i dont speak polish or czech just keep that mythos chilled  and ave it cold wen i get there lol and to anybody thinkin about drinkin in this bar get yourselfs in there brilliant host and a fantastic chill place

FAB, spent many a good evening at Oceanic. Lovely and chilled out, decent music and a fantastic host Kev really deserves to do well with his bar, nothing is too much trouble, and watching him run to the supermarket for tonic/sambuca is a joy to behold   Look forward to a few good nights in June, get that gin/vodka/tonic lined up  

Hi Kev..........Back home again now  and we could do with those patio heaters of yours - its a bit chilly here!  Thanks again for last week - see you were as busy as ever - lovely to end some of our evenings off in your great 'chill out' bar again which is always full of nice people!   The girls are back at college now  really missing Zakynthos - (quote them ............'Kev's awesome ! ' )    

Thanks again and have a well earned break!  Take care biking round the island and see you next year for more of your lovely Oceanic cocktails and good company..................Marie, John, Lydia & Jamie-Lee x

Couldn't miss Lee + Jordan now could we!

Can't wait to visit Kalamaki again!

Thanks for everything Kev...and hope you are looking after John
