Dining Out

Eating, drinking and talking is the main entertainment for Athenians. The current restaurant scene is vibrant, and some of the best cooking is found in just-slightly-modernised tavernas that showcase fresh produce and regional ingredients. Add in a culture of convivial alfresco dining, and no wonder meals tend to last for hours.

Restaurant Types

Tavernas are neighbourhood anchors. A psarotaverna focuses on seafood; a hasapotaverna or psistaria does meat. Also casual, a mayirio specialises in home-style stews and baked dishes (mayirefta). More formal is the estiatorio, with cloth on the tables.

Casual ouzeries and mezedhopoleia both serve small plates with drinks. Souvlaki (aka kalamaki) is Athens favourite fast food; restaurants that do these grilled meat skewers usually also do gyros (slivers of meat cooked on a vertical rotisserie).

What Looks Good

In summer, an empty room doesnt necessarily mean bad it could just be that everyone is on the roof terrace or in the courtyard.

At mom-and-pop places, its normal to go into the kitchen to see the days dishes.

For other tips on ordering, see .

Best Traditional Greek

Pork chops, grilled by a master.

Legendary cheap lunch spot near the central market.

Super-rustic Cretan specialities.

Checked tablecloths: check. Perfect calamari: check.

A taste of the village downtown.

The freshest seafood, simply prepared.

Best Mezedhes

Watch the Psyrri scene from a little table at this sweet corner bar-cafe.

Complement ouzo with meatballs, spicy sausages and other classics at this Plaka courtyard spot.

At this converted school youll learn about the vast variety of seasonal Greek food.

Best Modern Greek

The best of Athens modern tavernas.

The corner butcher, reimagined as a restaurant.

How can one restaurant be so good, so cool and so cheap?

A beautiful garden setting and Michelin-lauded food.

Best Snacks & Sweets

Excellent-quality meat goes into the skewers at this rockin souvlaki joint.

Fresh, healthy and spicy a budget diners best friend.

Spinach, cheese and pies, made in the most traditional way.

Sumptuous gelato and sorbet.

Eat your souvlaki standing.

Standard Practices

Athenians start eating dinner around 9pm.

For trendy restaurants, book ahead on weekends (try www.e-table.gr), or go early.

Plates are typically not cleared until you ask for the bill (and you must ask for it).

Bar Open

In Athens the line between cafe and bar is blurry. Most places segue from coffee to drinks, and maybe music and a DJ, at night. There is almost always food although places that serve only drinks are more common in the economic crisis (in which case, you can bring your own snacks). The smoking ban is often ignored.
