The best brunch places in Athens
Begg For Egg
Begg For Egg is my most recent discovery in the center of Athens (30-32 Pericleous Street, Athens 105 62) and I singled it out, as you can find hot brioche bread filled with scrambled eggs or fried eggs and various other ingredients, such as bacon and avocado.
Begg for Egg’s tasty offerings are so satisfying that they’ll keep you full for several hours.
We tried the Avo Holic and the Chicken Tenders. The former had brioche bread, scrambled eggs, avocado, begg for egg sauce, egg sauce, avocado sauce and chives. Their sauce was incredible!
The second had brioche bread, scrambled egg, paneer fried chicken, bacon, cheddar cheese, crispy onion, avocado sauce and begg for egg sauce.
The Brunch Factory
In the heart of Athens (Athinas 11, 105 54) you will find the most wonderful place to enjoy your meal.
The Brunch Factory was created to honour this meal in a space that operates from 8am to 4pm, the hours that are ideal for breakfast or early lunch.
We tried the Eggs Benedict Original and the Savory Pancake with fried egg and avocado and they were delicious. The quantities are quite large.
Kalimeres
Kalimeres is a beautiful, cute and small bistro in Psirri (14 Takis Street, Athens 105 54) to enjoy your brunch.
Here the day starts with a proper brunch adapted to Greek flavours. Dishes with Thessaloniki bun, feta cheese, tomato and other delicious ingredients make up an unforgettable brunch menu.
We tried and recommend Croque Madame, the Salty Pancakes with smoked turkey, cheese, fried egg and spicy mayo, and the Thessaloniki bun stuffed with smoked salmon, Domokou katiki cheese, spinach, poached egg and hollandaise sauce.
The portions are quite filling and the prices are very reasonable.
The Brunchers
The Brunchers (Ag. Theklas 5, Athens 105 54) is clearly a place dedicated to good brunch. In a very beautiful space, you’ll find delicious dishes waiting for you to try, and you’ll even find vegan options such as avocado toast.
We recommend you try The Brunchers Benedict and their all time classic club sandwich!
Acera The Brunch Project
A little further away from the centre, in Kallithea, you will find Acera The Brunch Project (Mantzagriotaki 105, 176 76).
When you go you’ll definitely try the “Acera Breakfast”, a huge platter of sausages, pancakes, eggs, jams, pralines, bacon and more!
Everything on the wooden tray was delicious and perfect for 2-3 people.
Buena Vista Social Bar
In the heart of Athens, Buena Vista Social Bar (7 Agios Philippou Street, Athens 105 55) transports you to an authentic Latin American atmosphere while enjoying the magnificent view of the Acropolis.
You will enjoy your brunch with Latin American touches, but at the same time you will taste the classic values of brunch, such as delicious pancakes.
The Makers
In the center of Athens, on Praxitelous street, you will find an original and creative shop with minimalist design, high aesthetics and a well-kept space.
The Makers’ brunch includes healthy and extremely tasty options. The açai bowl with fresh blueberries, coconut, passion fruits, peanut butter, and oats is excellent. The menu is not lacking in egg dishes, such as scrambled eggs served with sourdough bread and waffles with egg eye of egg, cheddar cheese, and ham.
Sweet dishes on the menu include the choco porridge with pea seed milk and caramelized pecans, butter waffles with butter and maple syrup, pancakes with caramelized almonds and maple syrup, valrhona guayana chocolate fondant and, especially, the sweet pumpkin.
