About 1002 Nychtes
1002 Nychtes (‘1002 Nights’) was one of the first places to open in Psyrri, and its stone walls, lanterns and glass-roofed courtyard still set it apart. The small stage hosts rebetiko and classic laïko most evenings, with weekend afternoon sessions on Sundays, played by seated ensembles of bouzouki, guitar, violin and accordion. The kitchen leans east, reflecting the owner’s Kurdish roots, so the mezedes are as much part of the night as the songs. It suits anyone who wants rebetiko in an intimate room rather than a big club. Our advice: check the monthly programme on its site and reserve online, since the room holds about 120.
