Η Μουριά

Cool bar, seemed very Greek. They didn’t really speak English but I also don’t speak Greek so fair enough. We did end up ordering some beer and snacks and they were so nice and chill to us. Great place for people watching as well.

For those of us living in this part of the city, Mouria is the iconic cafenio to be at on a Saturday afternoon right after the stroll at the vegetables street market. Relaxed atmosphere, noise from the discussions and cheap drinks, meze and coffee. No reservations are accepted. Just pop by and have a beer. The people working here are super nice. The people hanging out here are also nice (although this possibly refers to people I know mostly) . The place has not been renovated for decades... and we all hope it will not any time soon. I love it exactly as it is. Even when we have to stay standing at the pavement waiting for a chair or table while we already finish our second round of drinks. No matter how ofter I return to this place- usually once or twice a week... it is still my favorite!

Something I had every day while visiting Athens. Ice black coffee 👌

Let's face it, Η Μουριά is an institution, not just a café. Apart from the beat and, inexpensive but good wine and drinks, beverages and snacks, you will get to see and hopefully even chat with some really cool people. It is Exarhia after all!

Nice place, classical Greek cafeteria. Young and old people seating together to enjoy their simply, tasty beverage. Lots of intelectual debate is occurring over the tables. During the weekends is always full and if the day helps which usually happens, people will seat outside. Busy corner I must say.
