The Art Cafe, Corfu Town

Snobs Bar, Kavos

For lovers of rap, R’n’B, hip hop and grime, Snobs Bar in Kavos is top of the list. The bar plays the best in underground urban music until the early hours of the morning when the party spills out into the street and mixes with the clubs on the strip for one massive blowout.
