Traveler reviews
Sandro Martins
★★★★★2 months agoMy wife and I loved this place. The ladies running the business are the best. Always happy to serve you what you need (we wanted a simple ham and cheese sandwich outside the menu and they just adjusted to our taste). Maria who prepares the coffee and sandwiches is always smiling. The pastries are delicious made with care.
Denise Schwandt
★★★★★3 months agoDelectable bakery in Athens. Charming and so friendly. Try the cereal bars, oh and the cookies. Don't forget the little bags of crackers for the long plane ride home. Coffee is delicious. And on and on, worth every step.
