Coffee Near Athens Landmarks
Find specialty coffee within walking distance of the spots you're visiting in Athens.
Athens drinks coffee slowly and all day. The freddo espresso, shaken over ice, is the default order from May to October. On top of that habit sits one of the most roaster-led specialty scenes in southern Europe: MOKKA Specialty Coffee has roasted on Athinas since 1923, Taf Coffee roasts its own single origins on Emmanouil Benaki, and a new generation now roasts in almost every district.
