rich menu with traditional

Greek meze

Welcome to "Aerides" cafe-restaurant! We are located in Aerides, a small neighborhood in Athens' most famous area, Plaka. In an oasis of beauty built under the shadow of the Acropolis, in the heart of the city's ancient center, we present you a new concept that emphasizes hospitality, excellent company, entertainment, and authentic Greek cuisine.

Wonderful little square with less traffic than most other restaurants. The server was very friendly and helpful and the food was absolutely delicious.
