About The Underdog

One of Athens' pioneering speciality coffee roasters, roasting in the basement of a city villa in Thiseio and serving it straight to the cup, with brunch in the garden. Thiseio sits on one of the most beautiful walks in Athens, the pedestrian Apostolou Pavlou promenade below the Acropolis, past the Ancient Agora and the Temple of Hephaestus, lined with cafés facing the Parthenon. 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 The Underdog before you go.
