Riviera
Visitors say
I had a great time, impeccable service and they have the best coffee on the island!!
The service is fast. The food and drinks are of normal standard. The use of umbrellas and sunbeds is where you can eat or drink something.
About
Riviera is a bar situated in the coastal village of Agios Isidorus on the southern shore of Lesvos, offering visitors a relaxed spot to unwind with drinks against the backdrop of the Aegean Sea. With its seaside setting, the bar draws both locals and travellers looking to enjoy a cold beer, cocktail, or refreshing ouzo as the sun dips toward the horizon.
The atmosphere at a bar like Riviera in a quiet Greek village tends to be unhurried and welcoming, the kind of place where conversation flows as easily as the drinks. Agios Isidorus itself is a peaceful fishing community, and stopping at Riviera gives visitors a genuine taste of everyday island life away from the busier tourist centres.
Before you go
What to expect
Expect plastic chairs facing the water, the smell of salt air, and a glass of something cold arriving without ceremony. Riviera is the kind of bar where evenings slow right down — fishing boats bob nearby and the Aegean shifts colour as the light fades. Locals outnumber tourists most nights, which keeps the pace genuinely unhurried.
Best time to visit
Late spring through early autumn for warm evenings; midsummer sunsets here are particularly striking.
How to get there
From Mytilene, head south along the coastal road toward Plomari — Agios Isidorus is roughly a 30-minute drive. The village sits right on the water, and Riviera is easy to spot along the seafront.

The sun loungers are a little worn out. The rest is ok.

Unacceptable, in the middle of July, on a weekend, to have come two days in a row and have to wait 1 whole hour for them to take your order. All this because the manager of the restaurant cannot understand how a whole beach cannot be served by one waitress, who seems completely inexperienced. Get another waiter and you won't get in with 70 sunbeds and 3.5€ for a coffee.... A little professionalism! The beach as one of the best on the island...
