This bar is amazing, we had the pleasure of speaking to Rudi for at least an hour and it was fantastic. As a beer lover I can’t recommend Rudi’s bar enough. It doesn’t feel like a bar it feels like home. Make sure you get...in there.More

We came back every night we stayed in Chania and may be back to Chania just to see Rudy! Imposing collection of regular and rare-to-find beers and a great atmosphere.

A beer at Rudi’s was one of the highlights of our recent holiday in Chania Situated in a back street away from the town centre , it was well worth the effort to find Rudi serves excellent draft Belgian beer and is a perfect host..., welcoming, knowledgable and informative . Chatting to him over a Wetmalle beer was definitely one of the highlights of our highly enjoyable tripMore

One of the best Belgian beer bars, if not the best we have found traveling around the world. Great choice of beer, food that is adapted to beer and good quality and of course a great and knowledgeable host. We went 3 times during our...stay. And we will go back.More

We met Rudi and his wife in September, we talked a lot about our cats et beers, so much that we forgot to eat this night! If you like good beers, Rudi has what you need! If you like cats, you'll be happy to go...in his bar too! This lovely couple is so nice, you met them and you immediately want to be their friends. We loved Chania and would come again in Rudi's Beer House, just to talk again about cats and beers with them. I'm a craft beer lover, and I can assure you that this place is the best for craft beers in Crete. Rudi's knows beers, don't be shy and ask him for good advices ! I miss this place so much! Take care Rudi! :) Elodie, I and our 4 cats salutes you!More

We have visited Rudis for the last few years and it's one of our favourite spots. But this time I realized why I love the place so much....Rudi loves fine beer..and beautiful cats...and Keen shoes...and appreciates the phases of the moon!...he was also born within...3 weeks of me in 1960!....maybe his mum knew my Dad???....seriously though Rudi is a wonderful guy and you must meet him....and his beer.

7 minutes ago While visiting Crete I came across Rudis. I home brew beer and love Belgium beers. Rudis has all of the best Belgium and Greek beers. The food was a perfect combination. I loved the Swiss salad. Redis works with his wife and...you will find them to be the perfect hosts. I highly recommend this place. If you are a sophisticated beer connoisseur or a wannabe this is the place for you. This place is quite an amazing find. I’ve been there three times and can’t wait to go back.More

Im a big fan of Belgian beer and would have been happy to find a bar with a handful of classic belgian ales. Massively surpassed expectations. Rudy is extremely knowledgable. The bar has a lovely setting, we spent the last two nights of our holiday...here, (before and after meals in Chania) people and cat watching. Highly recommended.More

This is the kind of pub I dream of finding when travelling. I was tired of drinking Mythos and Fix after nearly a month in Greece. I read about Rudi's and knew I had to check it out. It is just outside the tourist crush...in Chania. I went twice and enjoyed a Cretan lager with Cascade hops. Delicious! Both times, I chatted with friendly people and seriously enjoyed Rudi's good taste in jazz music. If you need a break and a good beer while in Chania, definitely go here!More

I was greeted by the lovely and very kind Rudi (I'm guessing it was him) who made me and my girlfriend feel like home. Apparently he has had this place for 26 years, amazing. Great selection of both newer scene beer and classical craft from...renowned Belgian breweries. Awesome greek craft beer as well, didn't know it existed until now! Cozy building but you also have the option to sit outside in the shade. Highly recommend, especially if you like cats as he takes care of about 8 of them.More

It was a pleasure to meet the absolute 'professor' of beer, the great Rudi again, with his cool jazz and cats. An outstanding place for those of us fond of the new wave of Greek craft beers such as 8th Day by Septem. What Rudi...doesn't know about beer, brewing, hops and fermentation would make a book as small as a postage stamp. Wish I was there now!More
