Simply the best spot in town for cocktails! Imagine sitting next to historic sights that are centuries old while sipping on an excellently made cocktail. My personal favourite is the Margarita, whether the original or the blue one. Thanks team Matinee for the lovely experience every time we came down!

Cafe Matinee, ulitsa "Mitropolitska", Nessebar.  Lovely secret bar 10 metres from The Old Sailor next to St Sophia Church.  Just sit at the tables under the tree and they will come to you. A lovely couple who speak good English. Drinks are very reasonable, considering the location, at under 6 Lev for a pint bottle of beer and a coke.
