Came here with a big group of friends (6 of us).. 1 of out of the 6 had a Starbucks drink with her and was demanded to hand the drink over to the lady working behind the counter. We were all planning on purchasing drinks but due to the nature of the conversation, we all left. It was very rude. This was a very sad experience as were excited to try Bar Bruno.

Imm normally one for townie bars, but when I want to treat myself to something better… this is where I go. Their meatballs are the same from Zz&simmones, the best fine dining Italian restaurant in town.

Fantastic cocktails! The baked ziti al Cecil was fantastic, tapas style in size but exquisite taste.
They concoct the drinks professionally and are quite unique.
Great little spot for a “mommy & daddy” date night spot.

Bar Bruno really is a gem of a place. The drinks were amazing, the food was fresh and delicious, and the service was top-notch. This place is an instant favorite.

Bar Bruno is greedy. I brought a cake by earlier in the day for a friend's birthday and was told there would be a $6 outside dessert fee per person, assuming it would be the number of people eating the cake. We came in with a large group later that evening for drinks and appetizers. I was the one that cut and served the cake and they still did an auto gratuity of 20%. Only a small number of us ate the cake, but we were charged for the entire group of people sitting at the bar. It turned into an $80 fee for me to cut and serve our own cake. Bartenders also were not friendly nor did they pay attention to our group sitting at the bar. Overall an extremely negative experience.

Where to start?! Best Italian food I've had outside of Italy, the wine selection and Amaro selection are second to none! And the coffee is unbelievably good, and high quality Italian roasted beans. Literally the best playlist in town too. This place is such a gem and my favorite bar in Athens to write at or just watch the world go by.

Bar Bruno is a gem. My husband and I stop here often for coffee and it’s often a date night spot for us. The bar is cozy, the bartenders are so sweet and attentive, and the drinks and food are phenomenal.

Ordered a drink that didn’t taste good, asked if I could switch it out for a beer. I was told yes, and they took the drink completely full. At the end they charged me for both the cocktail I didn’t drink and the beer. I brought it to their attention, and they told me taking the drink off the tab isn’t their policy. I would have chugged down the awful drink had I known.
Rude staff and extremely poor customer service. Would not recommend.

Passed an enjoyable Sunday evening wining and dining at Bar Bruno! Counter service, and the few patio tables and the cozy windowside couches are the best seating. We ended up at the bar, with euro-style hands-off service and a relaxed vibe. The olives, arancini, and artichoke were loved, but the burrata’s not worth the money. Adored the greco di tufo and primitivo. Will be back for amaro flights or an afternoon café corretto! Great little local spot.

Get lime! Everytime I come I try to order a gimlet and never can get one.

Great wine and cocktails. Arancini like my Nonna used to make. An all-around good spot to catch up with friends.
