Mango Bar

About this place Mango Bar

Mango Bar operates inside the walls of the Rhodes Old Town — one of the relatively small number of LGBTQ+-welcoming bar venues within the medieval city itself. The Old Town context gives the bar a physical setting that no New Town venue can match: the medieval stonework, the narrow streets, the ambient sounds of a 700-year-old walled city after dark. The bar is relaxed and informal, fitting the Old Town's increasingly mixed character (the medieval city has evolved from a purely historical site to a lived neighbourhood with a functioning bar and restaurant scene) and drawing the kind of crowd that prefers the character of the historic quarters to the more conventional resort strip. For gay visitors who are staying inside the Old Town — in one of the many boutique hotels that have opened within the walls — Mango Bar is the most convenient and characterful option for an evening drink.
