Jailhouse Rock Bar in Heraklion, Crete, is an old-school rock’n’roll bar set inside a vaulted Venetian-era arcade, with walls covered in posters, a long wooden counter and a steady mix of locals and travellers late into the night. The soundtrack ranges from classic rock and rockabilly to hard rock, punk and blues, with themed nights and the occasional small live set during the week.
The drinks list is a clear strength, featuring dozens of beers with a strong craft focus, a solid whisky and rum selection, and a menu of classic and house cocktails. Open late and lively when much of the city has already quieted down, Jailhouse Rock Bar is a reliable post-gig stop in central Heraklion.
