    The place is nice from the outside, yet the atmosphere is pretentious… The card is not what you can get there in reality plus in the bill they charge you differently than in the card. The coffee is good. The shadow that the huge platan tree gives is pleasant. But I wouldn’t recommend this place.

    Sorry, but smiling to customers its a must that you can not find there. Four stars for the location and food. Two or three members of the staff was ok but the hostess (girl at the reception) and most of the staff need to go back to school of politeness.

    Feel-good has a new definition. Best friends is by far the most beautiful, relaxed, top serviced place I've been to in a while. Kudos to the architect. For.. everything. Kudos to the waitress for a service I would otherwise only get at a Michelin starred restaurant. Ah, almost forgot the food - quality and arrangement are just fantastic. All available thumbs up!

    Plenty of available tables and enough separation space between the tables since they have purchased the venue next to them and merged them. The setting is nice as it always was in the open outside under the trees, a place to catch some cold breeze in those hot summer days. The club sandwich was very decent, the chocolate souffle with ice cream was also good. The milkshakes are okay, not the best I had in the region but still very enjoyable. The prices are relatively ok given the location of the coffee-restaurant. Their coffee used to be terrible, I no longer drink coffee so I can't tell if they have good coffee nowadays.

  • 2/5 John T. 2 years ago on Google
    Very good service, great food and atmosphere. Very unprofessional, inflexible and easily irritatable door host. That’s how a undertrained staff member can ruin an overall very nice environment

  • 3/5 Alex K. 2 years ago on Google
    Best enjoyed on a mild, sunny day, where dappled sunlight slips under the green sycamores and into the terrace. Indoors cozy if overdone. Rather limited menu.

  • 4/5 Panayiotis T. 2 years ago on Google
    A very pleasant place to have a light meal or snack. Somewhat expensive.

  • 5/5 Alexander Lamnidis (. 2 years ago on Google
    All covid rules upheld. Excellent service, tasty salads, very good mille fuille. We will visit again.

  • 5/5 Dimitrios P. 2 years ago on Google
    Very good food quality, friendly service and beautiful cool garden. Ideal for relaxing summer meetings!

  • 5/5 Alexandru C. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Zoe and Drosia V. 2 years ago on Google
    So nice! A small paradise! Great sanwitches and coxktails too

  • 5/5 Sotiris S. 2 years ago on Google
    Talk plane trees create a superb shade - and a soothing rustling under which you enjoy your coffee, breakfast or lunch. A unique place in northern suburbs.

  • 5/5 Tania S. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic dining area and natural environment. Excellent service!

  • 5/5 Athanasios R. 2 years ago on Google
    Polite stuff, nice menu and prices. A cozy place either you sit outside or inside. The wscenery I s well kept and the music really good.

  • 4/5 GT T. 2 years ago on Google
    Atmosphere is a 5. Service is a 4. Food was a 3-4 stars. We ordered 6 dishes

  • 5/5 Tati S. 2 years ago on Google
    This time I added just view, because it's something. First of all it is open air, and yet a roof of trees makes nice shadow for you. 2 - when sun goes down restaurant lights up by thousands of candles, so place become very calm an peaceful. Music is perefect and complete concept. I suggest to visit this place if you are in Athens a specially if you are with your beloved. Perefect place for date or just to stay one to one with your thoughts. Staff are polite and speak English. Food also nicely made.

  • 5/5 Jinan s. 3 years ago on Google
    If you're looking for a beautiful place to relax with friends under beautiful green trees, this is it. The menu is delicious, the recipes authentic and made with fresh ingredients. The prices are similar to any of Kifissia's famous cafes, but this is the most special location and service among all, no doubts.

  • 5/5 Jimmy R. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice

  • 4/5 CHRISTOS C. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The surrounding area is excellent, under the plane trees with a variety of things that one can get. If some of the personal "weft" didn't have it, it would be much better ... Basically the place is all the money .. (Original) Ο περιβάλλων χώρος είναι εξαιρετικός, κάτω από τα πλατάνια με ποικιλία πραγμάτων που μπορεί να πάρει κανείς. Αν δεν είχαν κάποιοι από το προσωπικό "υφάκι" θα ήταν πολύ καλύτερα... Βασικά ο χώρος είναι όλα τα λεφτά..

  • 3/5 Petrina K. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Not something special! Nice comfortable environment but so far. (Original) Όχι κάτι το ιδιαίτερο! Ωραίο άνετο περιβάλλον αλλά μέχρι εκεί.

  • 5/5 Lina K. 1 year ago on Google
    One of most beautifull place for brunch in northern Athens. Really nice also for buisness lunch. Outside are under big trees so even in hottest day you can chill 😎

  • 4/5 neni s. 9 months ago on Google
    Great place, good food. The only problem is the waiters. Not only they don't know what's served and argue with clients that some items are not served while they are, the other night we went for dinner with guests the waiter was a disaster. Couldn't get the order right four times! We tried hard to make him take the correct order. At the end he overcharged us with items from a different table. Tried to rectify but once again made a mistake with items we never ordered. Over charged 155 euro! He kept asking whether we hadn't also eaten the other table's dinner. He wouldn't understand that four persons couldn't have ordered two first and two main courses each!! Besides that all good.

  • 5/5 Stelios Z. 8 months ago on Google
    Very nice coffee place in the north of Athens The atmosphere is very nice, within the trees and a large seating area that allows many people to sit under the shadows and within the cool climate! the coffee was one of the best in the area!

  • 5/5 Irene 5 months ago on Google
    Ideal for brunch. the best latte in the north. try healthy omelette. the club sandwich is an also interesting choice. the stuff is very helpful and polite. we go there every Thursday for brunch.

  • 4/5 Theodoro A. 7 months ago on Google
    its a great place to meet with friends or relaxing after work, very enjoyable place for everyday

  • 5/5 Dimitri R. 1 year ago on Google
    Classic location in Politia, Kifissia. Nice environment and vibes, good service, nice cocktails and food. Very relaxing in the outdoors under the lighter trees

  • 1/5 olivier h. 10 months ago on Google
    Used to be one of our favorite spots of Kifisia. In all honesty , the place is lovely, surrounded by a big garden and it has some good vibes. BUT for the past year or so, (I don't know if under new management and/or new Chef), the wonderful menu and food that used to be there is NO MORE. My wife and I even got sick last time we went. The service is mostly handled by a bunch of youngsters which obviously have not been trained for the job. We tried again a few days ago thinking "perhaps they have improved since last year", but UNFORTUNATELY it got even worse. It s a shame how such a lovely place can be turned into a such a disappointment.

  • 2/5 MD A. 10 months ago on Google
    Margarita one of the best pizzas we ever tasted, salads also great. Extremely poor service, rude waiters, without following basic politenesses principles, not respecting clients and very slow. Atmosphere very nice, place under the trees. Recommended but get armed with patience for the waiters.

  • 5/5 milo d. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to meet friends. The porch area is the best feature

  • 2/5 Georgios G. 1 year ago on Google
    Médiocre crazy expensive coffee (€4.5), really poor menu (omelette, toasted sandwich and club sandwich) On the positive side, amazing location, lush garden, friendly staff. Deserves so much better that what it is.

  • 5/5 George M. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice atmosphere, a bit over my own noise level threshold but balanced by the abundant coziness floating around. Service and food were very good, logical prices. An overall nice place to meet and have coffee, tea or drink, grab a bite and relax. If the weather was a bit warmer I would had definitely sat outside to the beautiful setting they offer.

  • 4/5 Elena S. 1 year ago on Google
    Used to have great food. We went in December 2022 and the food was medium quality but the prices still high. The service was also not very good.

  • 4/5 Ludovic S. 1 year ago on Google
    We found a place to sit upon reservation. Beautiful place under trees. Logical prices for the ambiance proposed.

    Best is an uptown place to get a coffee, brunch, lunch or dinner. The coffee is very good but rather pricey. The surroundings are nice and quiet plus you always find a parking spot!

  • 5/5 THANOS S. 4 years ago on Google
    Because they offer for consecutive years quality and it is one of the very few Athenian f&b business who keep for many years same employees.In specific field this means a lot. Hope they will continue being so competitive.
