Located in the most beautiful square of the Old Town in Chania, surrounded from boutique hotels, charming architecture and blooming Bougainvilleas. A trully unique environment to enjoy your breakfast, lunch or dinner!
An ideal place to be away from the crowd but just 5 minuntes walk from Chania center. Light choices, peaceful and always attentive service! Our wine list consists of carefully selected etikets that are mainly whites and a wide selection of roses that we love (especially Provence-style). Whatever you choose with or without bubbles, dry or semi-dry - they will always be a good match with our food-menu! Warm and cold appertisers, salads, raw dishes, pastas, risottos and pizzas are ideal combination for your wine or cocktail - for individual dishes or sharing! Additionally you may select from the beautiful cocktail list based on fresh fruits and less syrups - that is divided in two sections: The classic and the twisted classics!

    Situated in a nice street and overall looked nice. I had the King prawns which turned out to be giant giant prawns (32 Euro) which were tasteless, dry and blackened. Due to the lighting I found it difficult to determine which bits I should eat or discard and hence did not eat much. I did complain to the staff and we received two glasses of sparkling wine and 2 chocs with our bill. But we had finished eating/drinking at that time. My wife had pasta with shrimps which was mainly tasteless and below par. We had dinner at 6 restaurants during our short vacation and the other 5 were all good

    We had breakfast here and were so impressed, we returned the next day for dinner. The food is excellent, while you eat on the picturesque, cobblestone walkway of Chania's Old Town. It is a wonderful experience.

    My partner and I are chefs. We order 2 pisco sours they were tasteless no real passion fruit, 2 ceviches were warm, totally flat in flavor, no chilly, no salt, at that moment we diceded to cut our meal and go somewhere else. I'm coming from the land of ceviche and pisco Perú, this is a SHAME . And 2 glasses of wine, the only good think. Bad service, the waiter was all the time in his cell phone, no smile, no interest, we have to ask twice for everything. When I pay I mentioned issues about the food and absolutely no action was taken.

    Very nice restaurant with an international (Greek, Italian, Brazilian) menu. The food is very tasty and the wine's are not overpriced. Lovely atmosphere on a small Platea. Sweet, young staff and great music. Good for a whole meal or just a snack.

    Un cadre très agréable, une belle ambiance, un service parfait, un dîner savoureux : délicieux tartare de thon et croquettes de poulet épicées à recommander, excellent vin ! Un seul petit regret pour la salade de crevettes Caesar un peu fade à notre goût, en tout cas un très bon rapport qualité / prix. Ce n’était pas notre première « visite » et nous reviendrons encore avec beaucoup de plaisir dans ce lieu qui a beaucoup de charme.

    Went to Crete after a week in Santorini in Mykonos. Had I started my vacation in Crete I never would have left! So many amazing dining experiences, sightseeing, shopping, and beaches! I found Ginger Concept through OpenTable booked it and it exceeded my expectations. The staff were friendly and even offered suggestions for dining near Elafonissi Beach. The music playlist at Ginger Concept was the perfect accompaniment to our delicious food and drinks. Excellent, highly recommend and I will definitely be back!
