In front of the promenade of Thessaloniki, there are innumerable cafes. The presumable question that a visitor may have is: “Which one should I choose?”. I have the answer! Of course, “Castello”, because the coffees, drinks and snacks there are just epic, plus the magnificent view of Thermaikos gulf!
I urge you to go upstairs. The atmosphere is just fantastic and you can enjoy the sea better! My favorite snacks are tortillas and a club sandwich, while my favorite drinks are various chocolates. They may seem a little expensive, but they are really worth it! You won’t find something typically Greek here, but if you want to have a tasty lunch, Castello is the ideal choice! A little heads up - I personally don’t prefer the weekends, because then it’s too crowded.
Regarding the quality of the service, you may wait longer for a snack or a drink, because usually there are a lot of people, but you shall be rewarded with something that shall really amaze your palate!

The best place to have a traditional breakfast, which hotels usually don’t offer, is “Katselis”! There are two branches; one near the train station and one in the city's eastern part.
