Street food in downtown Athens

Street food in downtown Athens

Join us on a food extravaganza where we will sample a wide variety of our favourite street foods in the locals’ spots of downtown Athens.

We will meet in Monastiraki and then take a short stroll around the market area and the social life area (Psiri) stopping regularly for tastings and sit-down meals of our most loved street foods, all in places frequented by the local community.

We will visit one of the best souvlaki houses and sample their delicious pork or chicken skewers , eat a gyros washed down with Greek liquors such as raki and ouzo, local wine or fresh orange juice.
Visit a local fish taverna and taste fried calamari and small fish.

Of course we will eat some of our favourite sweets, loukoumades and ice cream as the Greeks love desert!
