In the area of Agia Irini Square – Monastiraki, a place full of cafe-bars and restaurants:
1. “Tailor made”, housed in the 1st hotel of Athens (St. Irini Square 2), for coffee. In the old days the name of the square was “Flowers Square”  because it was the central flower market of Athens. By the way you can also visit the church of Saint Irini and admire the beautiful frescoes – hagiographies
2. “Magkaze”, cafe-bar in the sidewalk (Aiolou 33), with a variety of cold dishes.
3. “Handle bar” in Psyrri (Melanthiou 8) for drink and good food. The patrons there circulate mostly with bicycles. It plays English punk.

1. “Heteroclito”, wine bar across the Mitropoli Church (Petraki 30). It reminds of French bistro  with very nice labels from all over Greece and  very good prices
