A long-running Psyrri counter bar where Athens cocktail regulars settle in for the list.
Tranzistor sits on Protogenous 10 in Psyrri, four minutes from Monastiraki metro. The room has run as a counter bar since the mid-2000s and Athens Voice's nightlife coverage continues to flag it as a Psyrri staple across 2023, 2024, and 2025.
This is the room for a drinker who wants a counter seat and a properly built cocktail at €10, not a DJ floor. The list leans on Greek spirits and the bartenders know their regulars by drink. Skip a Friday at 11pm if a seat at the bar matters.
Walk in or contact the bar via official channels. For weekend table seating, confirm hours through the bar's site or social pages.
The space is a narrow room with a long counter on the right and four small tables along the left wall. Athens Voice's 2024 Psyrri feature described it as 'one of the last counter bars in the neighbourhood that still treats a martini as a 12-minute order'.
One of the last counter bars in Psyrri that still treats a martini as a 12-minute order.
The list runs short and the bar runs it on its own terms. Order from the signatures.
Skip the long-format frozen drinks. The list rewards a classic order or a Greek-spirit signature, not a blender pour.
