By the Non-Schengen passport control in T1, Refill is your last grab-and-go stop before heading to the gates. It sits in the Departures Non-Schengen area at Chania (CHQ), so you only see it after security and passport checks. Think basic airport convenience: packaged snacks, cold drinks, and quick caffeine to stuff in your bag before boarding.
Refill opens in line with Non-Schengen departures in T1, so it usually runs from early morning check-in waves through the evening flight banks. Prices land in typical Greek island airport territory: expect to pay a bit more than in town for bottled water, soft drinks, chips, and chocolate bars, but still under €3 for a small water. Card payments are standard here, and small purchases move quickly.
Options skew toward shelf-stable items rather than fresh food, so treat this as a snack-and-drinks stop, not a real meal. If you want something more substantial than a packaged sandwich or pastry, sort that out in public Arrivals or earlier in Departures T1 before clearing into the Non-Schengen zone. Think of Refill as backup: one more bottle, one more snack, or a caffeine top-up before boarding.
Practical tip: prices and choice get thinner closer to individual gates in the Non-Schengen area, so if you see what you need at Refill, buy it there rather than assuming another shop closer to your exact gate will do better.
