Mykonos (General)

Attraction | "Donut Factory"

Quote:

Donut Factory is worthy of a stop in for a visit for their homemade cooking. We had their strawberry tart for €3, along with a small carton of milk fed the both of us.

Ramrod Club

Attraction

Ramrod Club is a gay bar located by Taxi Square on the upper floor above a restaurant with outdoor seating and a large floor for dancing and a large video screen. When we went it around 8pm, there was only one other customer. These kind of places doesn't get busy till around 11pm, too late for us to want to hang around. Around October, this is one of two places open this time of the year.
