The Story of Àreus

We weren't born simply from an idea; we were born from a love story spanning millennia, and this story begins with Areus.

Areus wasn't among the most well-known gods of Olympus. He wasn't concerned with lightning or war, but he had a unique gift: he knew how to recognize the importance of those moments we usually overlook.

A friend's hug, a spontaneous and unmotivated laugh, the sound of the waves lapping against the shore, that moment of quiet as the sun sets.

He was the god of the little things that are ultimately the most important.

One day, while wandering the world as only a god can, he looked down and saw Syracuse. He saw the light kiss the crystalline water, and smelled the scent of salt mingling with that of citrus fruits and olives.

It was love at first sight.

Areus never returned to Olympus. He laid aside his divine robes and settled here, in the beating heart of Syracuse. His task was no longer to orchestrate perfect moments for the immortals, but to create them for humans, and it is there that his mission became ours : to celebrate the passion of this land with an almost divine dedication:

• Our cocktails are the expression of his art: meticulous combinations, the purest ingredients, and the goal of striking that exact moment of ecstasy that only a perfect mix can provide;

• Our tapas are his tribute to Sicilian flavors, concentrated morsels of pleasure that tell the story of the sea, the land, and the friendships that grow around a table.

When you enter Areus, you're not just a customer. You're a guest of the god who chose to live here, among the waves and stars of Syracuse.

We are the legacy of that little god in love, and our only wish is that, after a drink and a taste, you too will feel irremediably in love with this place.

Welcome to the place where the myth lives and the pleasure never ends.
