Neon Raum Athens

A dynamic fashion scene emerges

""Neon Raum" Athens is more than just another showroom and photography studio. Protip: check their Sunday specials for a chance to have brunch with the..."

Upcoming creatives have finally found the right space to showcase their art in the urban core. Neon Raum is more than just another showroom and photography studio promoting Greek designers, it is a fertile breeding ground for artists and hoarders of unique moments of collaborative artistic practice, who have the need to express themselves and unlock their creativity by being part of a community that speaks a global language.

In a new economy environment of cultural labor characterised by precariousness, a community passionate about what it does emerges - against all odds. Innovative ideas by colourful individuals make Neon Raum the city's hub of a limitless world of fashion, art and culture focusing on the beauty in the process.

Extra tip: Before you visit, check Neon Raum's Facebook page for any pop up events. Join their Sunday specials and have the chance to chit chat with the designers while brunching in Raum's sunbathed loft.

La Bella Napoli

Italian pizza like no other

At this place, they make pizza the original Neapolitan way. The dough is thin and tasty, and the tomato sauce has a refined taste.

Shedia

Human is the answer

Shedia is heavily focused on sustainability and inclusivity: pets have their own menu, the menu is also offered in Braille, and the oil used is produced by the Niarchos park trees and then recycled.

Teras

A pretty monster

Teras is full of contradictions: it is unconventionally named (teras means 'monster' in greek) in an ugly way but it is one of the most beautiful places to enjoy your drink.

CatDog Urban Bar

Berlin meets Pokemon

I've been here with friends and they've all been amazed at the low prices, cool vibe and '90s memorabilia. Even the cocktails are named after Pokemon!

Kalos Aeras

Fine dining at home

Although Kalos Aeras is located on a busy road, there is no noise penetrating the leafy veranda, and stepping into the house is like time-traveling back to the 60s.
