Got a premade salad spinach and boiled egg. Open it up only a slice or two of a boiled egg. The rest was all spinach $13 and cannot even give you an whole egg. Getting sick and tired of this place as they frequently forget things on my order as well but have time to play on their phones.

I have had many breakfast and lunch offerings and they were always terrific. Although the chocolate croissant was a bit messy, the combination of the melted chocolate with the buttery pastry created a perfectly balanced extraordinary flavor. I also had the beef chile con carne. This was flavorful, but mild and was quite memorable. More recently, I had the cold turkey sandwich. This was a complex, yet tasty combination of gruyere with baby spinach and a delicious, creamy sun-dried tomato aioli. Everyone is super friendly and helpful. This is a must place to visit while in Athens.

12 million stars. Cute place, excellent and kind service, great food. Their cappuccino was excellent, and the roasted veg salad was so tasty. The veg was roasted perfectly, the greens were fresh, and the dressing was delicious. I just finished eating it and had to write this.
I added slices of fresh peach to the salad for a bit of sweetness, and it was so, so good (peach not required for greatness). I regret not buying a few pastries, as they looked amazing.
Thanks!!!

Each time we’ve been to Athens, we usually stop here at least once a day. Today was breakfast. Pictured is the breakfast toast, with the smoked salmon added. He got the whitefish toast with pickled red onion. Both were hands down delicious. The iced Americano was perfect. And the folks who work here are friendly

Went here yesterday and had a wonderful time. Despite it being busy both hardworking baristas were super friendly and one even found time to help me with the lid of my drink. The coffee was great and would recommend!

Food and coffee were decent. But the service was awful. The barista with the septum piercing was extremely unfriendly. Simple manners go a long way.

I couldn’t get passed the front door we accidentally left open when the barista was rolling her eyes and had attitude with us, ruining the whole vibe of the place. We shouldn’t have but we got coffee and left even though the menu looked great! Very disappointed we will stick with Willa’s where customer service is excellent.

Generally food and service is good but today was at least the third I ordered something, paid for it, and never got it. Did get refunded but it is so annoying when I order iced tea, a muffin and one cooked item and not get it. Nothing complicated. Once is fine but three times in less than a year is not acceptable.

Big goth girl has an attitude problem - was pretty rude to my wife and I, not sure if it’s because of her English or because she is asian, but attitude was not necessary when my wife asked for clarification on what something is. Emo girl called out other people’s orders and was nice to them, but just rude and dismissive with us. Coffee and orange juice tastes good.
