Very nice cafe with delicious food and dessert. The staff is very friendly and nice! Will visit again soon!
What a great bakery! Huge variety of baked sweets, chocolates, some savoury and all delicious. Small space to sit as well as take away.
It is mandatory to try 1) mille-feuille and 2) tiramisú from there.
Everything else is always fresh and more than incredible, too.
The best pastry shop in central Athens. Period.
This pastry/sweet shop & café is one of the best in central Athens. Their sweets are always fresh and delicious and they make a large range of sweets, cakes, cookies and savory goodies for all tastes. 👍😊👍
Their traditional Greek sweets are also outstanding and their Ekmek kadaifi is the best I've ever eaten or tasted...and believe you me I've tasted many in several countries. 😀😋😍😋
On one side of shop there is a café where you can enjoy a good cup of coffee or other beverage with or without a scrumptious tasting pastry or other savory snack. 😋👍
We saw this patisserie/coffee shop as we were walking around the area and stopped by the next evening for some sweet treats.
It seemed to be mostly a place where locals hung out but the staff had no problem talking to us in English so we were able to pick out a few of the patisseries and some drinks.
The patisseries were nice and the hot chocolate was much thicker than the American watery stuff, but not the liquid chocolate places like Paul serve. It wasn't overly sweet which was also good.
A pleasant environment and nice staff.
Service was great, plenty of delicious treats to try out, we got this dark chocolate mouse cake, cappuccino, iced espresso, and fresh squeezed, orange juice.
One of the best pastry houses in Athens. Have been coming here for 40+ years. Their profiteroles and the Saint Honoré should be on every “sweet tooth” person’s bucket list
Great quality and very professional service.
Iconic Athenian patisserie dating from the early sixties. One of the last places where things come into perspective. Bourgeois but up to date.
