67 Bistro Cafe Bar Athens

Ukrainian corner in Athens

"Famous for its vegan options and Ukrainian dishes like piroshki and borscht soup, 67 is also a very relaxed and friendly spot for studying or working."

In 2012, a tiny and long-abandoned space transformed and opened as a folklore-boho bistro cafe bar with Ukrainian interior references like textiles and hand-made embroideries hanging on the walls. Lesha (Alexandra in Greek), Olena and Bogdan are the owners - staff, always friendly and polite, came from Ukraine in 2000.

When 67 opened, it was one of the first brunch places in Athens, famous for its Ukrainian dishes, vegan choices and more, served every day fresh in large portions and with good value for money. Some of the traditional options are piroshki, Ukrainian dumplings with cabbage and meat. Also, 67 is well known for its signature dish, the national Ukrainian borscht soup.

If you prefer sweet to savoury Ukrainian temptations, you should order medivinc - the famous Ukrainian sponge cake or Syrnyk, a traditional cake from Lviv. If you are vegan, there is also spinach cake with berries and ricotta cheese. 67 is a very relaxed and friendly spot for studying or working. You can find local magazines and books to read for free if you want to spend time in the Exarchia area.

Au Revoir

Classic and unique

"Au Revoir" is, simply put, the oldest bar in Athens. It opened in 1958 and has been serving classic drinks since then. Even Frank Sinatra paid a visit.

Babouras

Feel the buzz of Petralona

"Babouras" Athens is a cafe/bar in Petralona that combines the old with the new. My tip would be to bring your camera with you - the light's very pretty.

Rema Pikrodafnis

Athenian wilderness

"Rema Pikrodafnis" is one of the few relatively untouched streams in Athens. I love this seemingly abandoned part of it, a symbol of what Greece really is.

Parko Eleftherias

Picnic time in the oasis

"Parko Eleftherias" in Athens is one of the few well-kept, moderately large parks in the city. I recommend it for picnics and just relaxing on the grass...
