Kokkion Monastiraki

So far, I've only tried the milk chocolate with 42% cocoa with orange and pepper (amazingly delicious!) at Kokkion, but trust me when I tell you that there are many other wonderful sounding flavors calling out for my attention here too. It's just a short walk from Monasteraki Square where there are plenty of other ice cream places. Pass them by, and try this very special place. You won't regret it!

So happy to discover this absolutely amazing ice cream shop on my last day in Athens. Totally blown away by the parfait special of the day and bitter chocolate with orange. So good that my friends went back twice more in the same day. Special shout-out to Maria for being so nice and patient with us while we took too long to decide our flavours from the massive list of options, and for brightening the whole experience with her beautiful smile and service! 😊

This hole in the wall has amazing ice cream - perfect texture, exciting flavours, and each flavour is on point with no artificial flavours. Best ice cream in the neighborhood and worth a visit. Ice cream pictured here is chocolate passionfruit!

This was the best ice cream shop we visited in Athens (and we tried many)! The ladies running the shop were so kind and patient with us and our kids. The flavors were unique and everything we sampled was delicious. I love that there were Greek flavors along side more common flavors. We’ve been home a few weeks now and still think about this place. We recommended it to friends who were visiting Athens the following week and they also loved Kokkion.

Tried out Kokkion for ice cream. They had two dozen flavours including a few unique ones (such as bitter chocolate passionfruit). Scoops are 2,90€ (1 flavor), 4,80€ (2 flavors) or 6,00€ (3 flavors). Sampled a few flavors. - 3 flavors (6,00€) - pistachio (0,40€ extra), tangerine ginger and peach apricot rosemary. Scoops were generous and refreshing

Tasty ice cream. Got here some new flavors for me. Friendly staff.

The rating of 4.6 is okay. I appreciate that they were open on 28.2., as we had nowhere to go as tourists. Gelato was good, pistachio was not particularly strong and peanut + caramel + white chocolate was so lumpy. They also have lots of little cakes and coffee. I appreciate that they had a lot of ice cream flavors. There were quite a few people there. They had a bad system, you tell the lady what you order and pay at her place, then she writes it on a piece of paper and hands it to someone. The whole system was confusing and took a long time.

Everything about this place was amazing. They had unique flavors- like orange chocolate and hot pepper… and some amazing basic flavors as well! My favorite gelato in Greece so far
