About Coffee Island

The Greek coffee chain's seafront branch, praised for its brews and pastries and handy for a coffee on the way to the beach. Glyfada is the liveliest town on the Athens Riviera, about 17 km south of the centre, with smart shopping streets, marinas, beach clubs and seafront cafés, and the coastal tram runs here from the city. Greek coffee culture is unhurried: order a freddo espresso or freddo cappuccino, the iced coffees Athenians drink almost all year, and linger as long as you like.

Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Coffee Island before you go.
