LOT 51

Great brunch spot in Zografou area. Not many different brunch options on the menu (eggs Benedict, scrambled eggs, fried eggs, avocado toast), but all of them are perfectly made. Also tried the cinnamon roll, which was tasty, but could be better, especially when it comes to the dough.

One of our first stops in Athens. The outside are was fairly clean and breakfast bowl was delicious. But the service was not great and some items on menu weren't that appealing.

Really chill and open atmosphere. It is mainly outdoor seating with some spots indoors at the bar. The food is pretty good and decently priced, but not too much selection. International food instead of Greek food. The servers are very nice.

One of the most popular cafes in the area, with seating available both indoors and outdoors. People visit in the morning for coffee and to work, and in the evenings for cocktails. There’s a lively crowd outside during the evenings. We visited one morning to try their coffee and desserts. The staff was attentive and polite, but the service was slow. I must say, we enjoyed a pleasant time reading books in the cozy atmosphere of the upper floor. However, we didn’t find the coffee or the desserts as delicious as they were hyped up to be. Additionally, the coffee price was quite high compared to typical prices in Athens. You can visit to spend some time, but I wouldn’t recommend going with high expectations for the taste.

Went for drinks and they were decent. What stands out is the exceptional staff. They are polite, friendly, and remarkably attentive to their clientele. The team seems to possess a sixth sense for anticipating needs, knowing exactly when you require service without being intrusive. This level of attention is ultimately what makes this establishment worth returning to time and again.

Their menu is really good. I have tried several plates from Lot 51 and I can say that their kitchen is really good. Price wise is kind of ok comparing to the prices in the market. I can say that their pancakes are one of the best I have tried in Athens. Really good taste and very filling. The place reminds me a coffee place in an island. You are getting the feeling that the beach is somewhere near you, but unfortunately there is only one main road😉 What they need to pay more attention is their customer service. Our waitress was good, but in general I think they were so many waiters-tress and they weren’t so effective comparing to the work they had to deal with.

We came on Saturday midday for brunch. It was busy and perhaps only 2-3 waiters for the whole place. To their credit they were reasonably attentive. But it took 30 mins for coffee to arrive, and 50 mins for food to arrive. To apologise, they comped our coffee so we just paid for the food that took 50 mins to arrive. I wouldn’t come here on a weekend. Coffee was good, and they have nut milks like hazelnut. I liked that the eggs Benedict was with potato instead of bread.

Lot 51 fits into a common-themed cafe scene in Athens. It is a large set up, plenty of seating, chill vibes and floral themed. It’s clinical. They have a solid menu of brunch options and their food is solid as well. Just an overall good place to come. It doesn’t blow you away with anything but you can’t really go wrong here. Service is functional and efficient. Coffee - 8.4: the flavour is smooth and the beans have balanced taste. It’s a day drinking cup and fits perfectly with the brunch vibes they are going for. The microfoam separates a little and the mix leaves a little bitterness in some sips. Overall, very good.
