About Evripidou Street Spice Shops
Next to the Central Market, the street where Athenians have bought herbs, spices, dried fruit, nuts and deli goods for generations: a great place for edible souvenirs. The Varvakios Central Market on Athinas Street, trading since the 1880s, is the heart of Athens food shopping, with meat, fish and spice stalls and old tavernas around it. Shops in central Athens usually open Monday to Saturday, with longer hours on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, while many in Plaka and Monastiraki also open on Sundays.
Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Evripidou Street Spice Shops before you go.
