Williwaw Café & Canteen — Restaurant in Athens

Don’t come here if you’re a tourist ! I went in politely and said hello, the person at the cash register (a woman with very short hair) didn’t say it back, so i said it again so she could answer out of respect.

Excellent cafe, superb coffee, easy for vegans here as they that sprouted milk from plants which I'm informed preserves the taste of the coffee, which was smooth and creamy, probably one of the best coffees I've had in Europe, definitely check this place out if you are in athens, it's dog friendly and there were a few dogs sitting around with owners when we visited.
