This is a really pleasant green oasis, shaded by trees with the sound of running water and parrots in the trees (watch them dropping dates on you) that is a good break from the busy in-season streets of Old Rhodes. Nice friendly waiters, pleasant wine, good beer, very relaxing, what’s to complain about? Nothing. Food average, but what did you... More

Stopped by Socratous Garden today, following the excellent reviews on TripAdvisor, and we were not the least disappointed! Tugged away between two busy shops, this lush oasis offers a shady break under the orange trees, with a very friendly an humorous staff on top of it. We ordered a couple of sodas and early lunch - one spinach pizza and... More

We stopped in to kill some time before s ferry. Great choice! We ordered a frappe and Greek coffee, both of which were tasty. We hung around for an hour using their wifi, and didn't feel hurried or pressure to get anything else. Staff was attentive, and the garden was a great place to relax and enjoy the sun. Did... More

From the square walk up Socratous Street and just over half way up on the right walk under the arch and you will find an oasis amongst the throng of shops/restaurants in this bustling part of the Town. You will be greeted a parrot on a perch... More

In the heart of the old town, we stopped for some lunch. Garden s beautiful and quite charming, but food was a bit of a let down. Moussaka wasn't fresh- this was lunch so was maybe yesterday's? Greek salad unexciting. Lovely surroundings though.

Found this place in the side streets of the old town. away from the hustle and bustle and people dragging you in! Lovely and quiet, sound of running water, palm trees and vine covered rooftops with glass charms tinkling in the trees. Traditional taverna food we had a lovely shaded lunch, (moussaka and kleftiko) and ice cold drinks. Love stumbling... More

Anyway, as we approach the top of the street, we found this place. What a tranquil place with trees, pools of water, shaded eating area just very pleasant and... More
