Here at Athenian Grill, we're honouring the week with two exclusive creations — inspired by Greece, crafted with bourbon, and only available during this period.

šŸŽÆ Featured Cocktails

The Odyssey – a crisp and bold voyage of flavour.

This drink brings together the rich warmth of bourbon with a whisper of ouzo – a nod to our Greek heritage – and a bright citrus finish.


Tales of Thermopylae – a heroic blend for the bold.

We've combined rye's strength with the Greek spirit Metaxa, layered with vermouth and bitters — a cocktail that tells a story as powerful as the name suggests.


Why Join Us This Week?

  • Both cocktails are limited edition, available only during Bourbon Week.

  • They bring together two cultures: the Bourbon-trail roots of Kentucky and the timeless spirit of Greece.

  • They're perfect for both bourbon enthusiasts and those looking to explore something new and elevated.
