Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Worst bar in Kos. So dissapointed. Loved the music and the lovely outdoor setting so saved this as a favourite for our last night! The staff were unbelievably rude and disinterested in their customers. Seemed so up themselves. Waitresses too busy sat down talking to their friends yet when guests enter the building to place an order they shout at them . Drinks were nice but extremely overpriced! There are far nicer and more welcoming bars/ restaurants in Kos. Don’t let it ruin your night as it did ours.

This is a lovely bar in a great setting however the staff completely let it down. They are unwelcoming, quite rude, disinterested and basically make you feel like they’re doing you a favour in coming to bring you drinks. We visited twice - the first time I felt uncomfortable but thought I’d give it the benefit of the doubt, the second time we left without even ordering a drink. There are some great bars in Kos Town with staff who actually want your business - don’t waste your time on this place with its pretentious staff.

Great music, the positive stops there! Rude staff, no Greek beer, if I wanted Estrella I’d have gone to Asda! Clearly VIP customers were in the night we visited, we were asked to move from our table to make way for the “big yacht” customers. As they were buying bottles of champagne our money wasn’t good enough!! Treated with the contempt. We felt like we were doing them a favour by being there! Spend your money elsewhere with proper lovely Greek people of which there are plenty in Kos.

Really nice bar in the very center of the old town of Kos. They have a dj playing nice music and people enjoying drinks that are not very common. A very good experience that I recommend if you want to spend a nice night and have some fun!

We went to this bar for an after dinner cocktail. The rest of the old town was pretty quiet but there was a good crowd at Sitar. The music was lively but you you could still hold a conversation. The cocktails were great - we had negronis and old fashioneds. Staff were quick and professional.

we returned a few times to Sitar bar because, in my opinion, they make the best cocktails and also a lot of unique ones I've never seen in my life before
the waiters are very professional and reactive
+ everyone gets a free bottle of water

THE best cocktails on the island albeit expensive, but you get what you pay for.
Service efficient, friendly and super professional.
Busy all the time - reserving a table for drinks recommended , otherwise you go to the bar to get your own drinks and stand. Highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Recommended by receptionist at our hotel - looked like where the Greeks come for drinks - really elegant and cool bar tucked in corner of square by the harbour. Great cocktail list and smooth sounds from the DJ. Went twice - service was good but could have been friendlier the second time.

Best cocktails in Kos! Actually some of the best cocktails I’ve ever tried in my life. Especially the Red Cooler which was unusual and couldn’t get enough!
Great location, atmosphere and music was fantastic. The place was busy but never had issues getting served.
Also had cigars which was a novelty.

This is a great spot for people watching! Right at the bottom of those famous steps in Kos Old Town.
Great selection of drinks and very tasteful decor.
I had read previous reviews that staff were more inclined to chat amongst themselves rather than attend to customers. On my visit it just seemed a normal Greek bar……….if you’re in a rush I’d recommend you go elsewhere.

Hi. I went to the Sitar on Saturday 14th for a drink with my partner before we headed to another restaurant for a meal. I was charged on Saturday 14th for a bottle of Prosecco. However, since returning to the UK on Sunday 15th September the next day... today on 17th the venue charged me a duplicated payment again for the same thing I had last Saturday even though I’m not in the country. I’ve notified my bank who dealing with the issue and fraudulent activity. Has anyone else experienced duplicate payment charges from this venue?
