Akra
A Michelin Bib Gourmand-recommended spot in Pagrati, specializing in wood-fired and charcoal cooking, with its own bakery at the entrance.
A small, casual restaurant selected for the Michelin Bib Gourmand, where chefs cook right in front of you at the counter or over a wood-fired grill, with the front of the house serving as their own bakery. The menu changes daily, centering on wood-fired dishes made with seasonal ingredients; raw tuna, smoked eggplant, and milk tart are frequently mentioned. Open from Tuesday to Sunday morning, it mostly serves brunch in the morning, so those wishing to experience the full wood-fired menu should opt for lunch or dinner. The space is small with closely spaced tables, so booking through the official website is recommended. The average cost is about €25–45 per person. Located in the Pagrati and Mets area, just south of the Panathenaic Stadium.
