Taf Coffee

We came to Taf by a friends recommendation, and now i'm happy to recommend it to others as well ! No big fuss - prefect coffee in a small funky place. You don't need more than that. Try watching them make the coffee - they treat it as art and it taste accordingly.

**Have a cup, but leave the beans on the shelf.** Taf Coffee seems to be suffering from an identity crisis. As a coffee shop, it is undistinguished from hundreds of others in Athens: pleasant, cozy, and enveloped in cigarette smoke. As a roastery, it offers a staggering selection of coffee, predominantly from the Americas with a minority from Ethiopia. However, there is virtually nothing from Asia—no Indonesia (not even Java), no Vietnam, and none of the glorious coffee of India. This geographical gap could be excused if the American selection were consistently exceptional. Unfortunately, the sheer breadth of the selection results in a mixed experience. The flavor profiles are hard to decipher, with adjectives that seem drawn from the wild imagination of the roaster on any given day. The staff, hurried by customers waiting for their espresso, was unhelpful and could offer little in the way of guidance or advice regarding the beans. To make matters worse, prices are exceptionally high, ranging from €50 to €150 per kilogram. At this price level, experimentation becomes very expensive, very quickly. Our best advice: come here for a cup of coffee, but leave the beans on the shelves. As ordinary consumers, we are not paid or compensated in any way for this review. We aim to provide fair and reliable feedback for fellow coffee enthusiasts.

Delicious coffee! We bought some beans as a souvenir from Athens and have been enjoying them back home.

Clean, great options and one of the best iced coffees I had in Athens. Chocolate swirl muffin was one of the tastiest treats I had in Athens too

Phenomenal. Kind and knowledgeable staff. Amazing freddo. One of the best coffees I've ever had. They also freeze servings of their single origins, which I haven't seen before in my travels, and greatly appreciated the dedication to the craft. Closest I'll more than likely ever come to having coffee that fresh. A must visit for enthusiasts.

The nerdiest coffee shop I’ve ever visited. The attention to detail. The beans. The test tubes. The awards. This shop wins. 🏆🥇 Don’t walk. Run here. If you are a coffee geek, this coffee shop will out geek your geekiness. You think you know ratios? This place will ratio you back to when you still drank instant coffee from a tin. 😆

Wonderful place with some of the best coffee I've ever had. The cinnamon roll was also incredible! They have a great offer of coffee (beans and already grinded) and I even brought one bag of coffee beans - with a great assistance from the owner (I assume) - to try at home and I shouldn't have, because it was amazing and now I can't have any more!

At TAF Coffee in Athens, despite the cafe's well-earned reputation and inviting ambiance, the takeaway black coffee was notably mild, which isn't exactly what one might expect from the accolades on display. This experience suggests that their coffee offerings might cater more to preferences for gentler brews, even though the cafe itself is a visually appealing venue with lots of open spaces.
