Loggia Wine Bar

A must wine bar and sunset spot in Sifnos. Very nice wine options and beautiful views. We found the service to be extremely attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. Didn’t try the food, the menu looked nice but pricey and fairly limited. But loved all the wine options especially the Greek orange wine and the somm’s description. We came on a Tuesday, no reservation but arrived 10 minutes before they opened and had no problem getting a table. Didn’t experience what the other bad reviews said, so only have nice things to say.

I get the bad reviews - the staff aren’t very friendly and you’re not getting seats in summer without a reservation. But you can reserve same day or the day before, the view is gorgeous, and the music is really, really good. Nobody who got good seats was complaining…

The coolest place in Kastro (and Sifnos) for a glass of wine (or more) before dinner. You can also grab a bite.

Great view and good wine selection, but the service feels uneven. Some guests are treated like cool VIPs, others wait 40 minutes just to be noticed (thanks to the only kind guy of the staff that was working at the dj set, if I had a glass of wine). Other Staff attitude was a bit too snobbish and make me feeling unconfortable. I work in a fashion Agency in Milan, so I’m used to high-end places, but when I travel I hope to find a more open, friendly and international vibe. Style is great, but being truly welcoming is smarter. If you’re after a cool Instagram shot, or the fake feeling that you are “in the right place to be” this bar works. But for a real, warm experience and human connection, there are simpler spots with better energy, authentic food and genuine kindness—which is still the most underrated luxury.

Tourist trap. Plain and simple. An example of greed, someone who is trying to earn their yearly income in 8 weeks. The view is stunning but, even though we had a reservation, they told us we could not order any food, since they were overwhelmed with orders and they didn’t have any water glasses so we had to drink from the bottle. To be fair the waitress did apologize and offered us the water bottle for free. Basically, someone thought it was a good idea to turn a small pathway into a bar with only a wooden bench used to serve around 80 people. They also added two lines of tables (greedy,greedy,greedy) which ensures that people who walk by will knock you constantly. Two overpriced and watered-down aperol spritz later we left since we were also hungry. My advice is to go on the other side of Kastro and enjoy the view with a bottle of wine from the mini-market. Lower cost, better view, better serivce, no one knocks on you and the church of seven martyrs offers nice photo ops. The cats are also equally cute on both sides.😊

An insanely stunning view for a drink however service was non existent and the staff were rude and judgemental. We got told there were no bookings for the entire summer however you can line up before 7pm and everyone got a front row table. The wines were extremely expensive but were nice. I would recommend you walk 20 metres down the stairs for a great 5 euro cocktail with the exact same view.

We had a pretty strange experience at Loggia. We had high expectations and after doing a bit of research, we made a reservation to ensure the experience would be as pleasant as possible. I think our reservation got lost or overlooked. Although the bar is supposedly a natural wine bar, it’s packed with people mostly seeking an Aperol Spritz. Maybe we were expecting a different kind of clientele. Long lines form in front of — or better said, through — the bar, and after the initial confusion, we were seated on the stairs. About 15 minutes later, we finally got our table. Although we were thoroughly ready to order, we once again had to wait for the — although very nice — elusive waiter. We got our drinks and food about 40 minutes after entering the bar. (By drinks, I mean two glasses of wine; by food, two appetizers.) We would have loved to order another glass of wine, but were once again ignored. The place offers a stunning view and a great atmosphere that is practically unmatched. The goat croquettes were excellent, and the tarama even better. The waiting staff were kind, but inattentive. Both things can be true at the same time — our waiter was probably the friendliest person we met on Sifnos, but at the same time so busy that we couldn’t really be served properly. As for the wine — the prices reflect a flawed system that we, as guests of these sorts of establishments, also help to sustain. The wine itself was completely fine, but it’s hard to justify paying the price of a whole bottle for a single glass. I think Loggia is a victim of its own — although completely deserved and understandable — popularity. It feels like the place is trying to offer a curated experience, but is overwhelmed by the demand. A weird experience.

Great wine selection, great music, great view. We didn’t manage to get a reservation to eat but food looked great too. It’s a hotspot so it gets super busy. Staff were all really cool. They keep a few spaces on the steps for walk-ins, but it’s first come first served. If you’re into natural wine and good music, small plates etc, I’d definitely give this place a go. We loved it..
