Amore Spritzeria

Caught by the penetrating gaze of her majesty Monica Bellucci, I was forced to stop my purposeless stroll in down-town Athens tiny alleys. “What is this place?” my mind wondered, as I found myself amazingly lucky enough to comfortably slip into a conveniently empty sit, with the invaluable help of an accommodating waiter. Twenty minutes later, half way through an Adriano Celentano evoking song -that took me right back to my second trip to Firenze- and under the influence of my first glass of a deliciously youthful rose sparkling wine (Piperato), my friends have finally arrived and almost immediately began to blend with charming random customers from the next table. As this promising night progressed, lavish plates landed in our table and the only thing that could lift my eyes from the surprisingly attractive crowd was that merciless burrata-pistachio bologna-rocket plate, that artichoke-cherry tomatoes-bread bathed in olive oil made in heaven trio and that twisted sick potato chips covered in prosciutto crudo-jalapenos-cornichons. Whoever thought of this last plate, is an absolute genius. Definitely going back!

EXCELLENT drinks, vibes and service! We found this popular spot on Google and it did not disappoint. We stayed within walking distance and visited 3 times. Really creative yet simple cocktails, super cozy, limited seating - get a seat and stay for hours type of place. A few other great bars on this same corner that locals populate. Not a tourist trap, and each night we were there, they servers we fabulous and friendly.

Immaculate vibes, gets busier around 8pm but grabbing a table before that shouldn’t be a problem during the week - lovely lovely drinks and snacks to go with them. Only Greek menu available atm but the team will help you understand it better 🥰

Amazing bar! This place is on point. Very vibrant from early evening with a fantastic atmosphere, with a very nice crowd. The drinks and food is fantastic especially if you’re looking for a good aperitivo. I’m definitely going to return!

This is a very cute bar, it has a great atmosphere, very friendly staff. Drinks are delicious. I tried the Negroni and it was very well prepared. I really like the vibe.

The drinks and food are really great, though overprized (13€ for a spritz!!). The service is kind of indifferent and trying to be friendly but only with their real friends and makes the whole situation awkward. The palce is extremely small for all those people gathering inside and outside. My worst experience was on a Friday night, that we had our drinks and food after 23:30 and at 00:00 they closed and asked us to leave. We only had one bite each of our food. Also offered to pour our full drinks on plastic cups. Was totally disappointing.

Well, apart from the fact that they don't have any very special vermouths... or more elaborated ones, they only have two 330ml beers... the service is outrageous... we arrived when two friends were already seated, we took two stools from the empty table next to us, but the waiter comes and tells us that it's not possible for the empty table to be left without chairs, so we would have to stand... speechless… they invited us to leaves…

Best spitzeria in Athens! Great food and wines and many different delicious spritz!!! Super music and Peloponeso that run it! Great!
