Located in the heart of Athens, at walking distance from many top and mid-range hotels, you’ll have to book in advance unless you’re lucky. Crowded with all sorts of types and ages, this ‘mezedopolio’ is well known for its modern atmosphere and tastes. Decorated as an old grocery store, this 2-storey establishment is ideal for a relaxed night out. There’s a good wine list to choose from and whatever you order will be more than appetizing. Make sure you try the ‘keftedakia tis giagias’ (grandma’s meatballs), ‘mastelo’ cheese, anything that ends in mastic, the chicken ribs with roast potatoes and, last but not least, any pie. The salad with ‘anthotiro’ (a type of creamy soft cheese) is a good choice too.
